Quebec Is, Indeed, tho Ireland of Panada,
quite n rebellious and proud and unreason

Quebec nnd Its citizens who have settled
outside Its borders see no reason why thev
Ohould go to wnr for France or linglnnd
or any other country. In fact, they see
tcme reasons why they should not.
It was largely on account of the refusal
of all cxetpt a small contingent of French-
Canadians tn enlist In the overseas army
that five provinces of Ilrltlsh Canada
jdoptecl woman suffraRe These provinces,
British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan,
Manitoba and Ontario, clearly perceived the
necessity of swelling their electorate, and

Ing men
Sir Ilohert Borden.- Premier of Canada,
has Iotir been an advocate, of suffrage for
111 Canadian women, but has necr been
able to carry his party with him on the
Issue. The Conservatles were afraid of
the French woman ote, and they took
refuse In the old states' rights argument
which has so far kept the Federal amend
ment In the background In Congress.
Premier tloidrn paid a visit to Kngland
and the French fronts, and he came back
to Canada determined to put through a
toiwcrlption measure. The situation, as he
taw It, was too grac, the crisis too Imme
diate o permit longer the old system of
voluntary enlistment.
As a measure of justice to tho men
fighting overseas, an emergency woman
suffrage measure was Included In the war
time election act. This gave the Note In
all women In the Dominion who had a
next of kin soldier or sailor lighting oxer
leas, dead In past battles or honorably dis
charged. N'ext of kin nurses serving overseas were
likewise enfranchised. Kvery wife, mothet,
ulster or daughter of a fighting man or a
nurse was thus given a vntn for tho dura
tion of the war. The vote of thi women
In the the suffrage provinces was tempo
rarily suspended.
Ul'lUUn'S THRKAT CHUCKS DRAFT
Both the conscription act and tho war
time suffrage act were bitterly contested
by the I.lbetal party under the leadership
of Sir Wilfrid Iaiurlcr. Sir Wilfrid Issued
a manifesto announcing that In case Jbo
was elected to Parliament, which means
that lie would become Premier, ho would
(impend the operation of the conscription
act until a referendum to tho country could
be voted upon. He was wise enough to
add he was In favor of full suffrage for all
Canadian women, splitting even on this
Issue with Premier Horden.
The result of Sir Wilfrid Lauder's mani
festo has been to halt conscription to .a
Wry great extent. Of the men drawn, a
Tery large number claim exemption some
times on frivolous grounds.
No one knows how tho woman vote la
folng, or even how many women will go
en record either for or against conscrip
tion. A system of enumeration has been
Revised, enumerators going from house to
house throughout tho Dominion, enrolling
those women who are entitled to .a vote.
More than 600,000 women are entitled
to vote under the new war-tlmo elections
act. If enough of them get on the rolls,
and If a majority of those ote for Horden,
the conscription policy will be established
in Canada and tho war will be fought by all
classes and by French as well as Kngllsh.
WOMAN VOTI3 A .l'UZZLR
But there is no possible way of Judg
ing how the women will vote. On the one
hand it would seem that eery woman with
a son, husband, father or brother lighting
for his country on the seas or in the mud
and blood of the trenches would favor con
scription. On the other hand, many women
are indignant that their full suffrage has
been taken away from them by Premier
Borden. Sir Wilfrid Laurler has promised
to restore full suffrage, and then the wom
en vt HI all be ablo to vote for conscription
U they want to.
Meanwhile tho loyal women of Canada
are working hard in all the cities to get
legally entitled women on the voting list.
They have organized in election districts
everywhere, and are holding drawing-room
and other meetings, appointing district cap
tains and in every way trying to bring out
the woman xote.
One of Borden's strongest supporters in
Ma war policies is Lady Tope, of Ottawa, a
members of one of the oldest French rami
" She has four sons in the war, and al
though she has always been devoted to
Hurler, she Is against him now, and Is for
conscription.
Whichever way tho December general
i election goes Canada has furnished one
wore proof that no country can fight the
ar without its women, and before the war
is over all countries may regret they delayed
o long In training women for citizenship.

SAVE ALLIES BY SAVING
WIIEATURGES DR. PRATT
Expert Declares Our Surplus Can lie
Increased by 200,000,000
Bushels
The serious shortago of wheal upon
which the fortunes of our Allies so vltallv
depiud, was graphically deseilbed today
by Dr. Ilemy S Pratt In his Ihlrd of ii
sei( h of fond conservation talks at Havci
fnrd College Doctor Pratt, win. under
Heibert Hoover had charge of distributing
food to -n.doo war-stilcken families In the
Vervins distilct of northern France, has
made it thorough study of food conditions
In this country.
"There will be a dangerous sboitago or
wheat," said Doctor Pratt, "In tho Allied
countries this winter for two main teasons.
In the first place, crop conditions throughout
the world aro below notmal. The 1'iiltcd
States, which genu ally has a stuplus of
2(iii,UO0,000 bushels, will have but 80,000,000
bushels to spare. The Indian and Aus
tinll.in ciops can be of no vital aid becauso
lack of shipping precludes such long voy
ages Whatever grain leaves the Balkans
or llus.sla finally leachts the Ccnlial 1'i'iw
eis. Liefoie tho next wheat clop the Allies
will need more than 850,000,000 bushels of
wheat. Deducting the amount they will
produce themselves, theie will still be a
shoitage of 580,000,000 bushels.
"This deficit will liuvo to ctnno from tbe
I'nlted States nnd Canada Our bin plus, will
be 80,000.000 bushels, that of Canada I'Jll.
000,000 bushels. With this the Allies will
still be minus 380,000,000 bushels. It Is
now up to us, by stringent methods of con
st rvatlon, to cut down our consumption so
much that our surplus can be materially
added to. The food conseivatlon committee
hi Washington estimates that of our normal
consumption of fiOn.OOO.flOO bushels 200,.
000,000 can bo saved."

ENTITLED TO COMFORTS
ALHXAN'DIIIA, Va Nov. 24.
demanded to the District of Columbia
Jail, the Woman's Party plcke.ters won A
complete victory from Federal Judge
Waddlll here today In their legal right for
removal from the Occoquan, Va., work
house.
Tlie southern jurist ruled that prisoners
of the type of sufCrnglsts could not be com
pelled to serve In the workhouse or wear
Us prison garb, be employed at hard labor
there or be denied privileges and Comforts
given Inmates of the Jail.
Appearance of Miss Lucy Hums and Mrs.
Lawrence Lewis nt opening of today's ses
sion of tlie habeas corpus hearings was
gretlctl b.v rounds of handrlapplng from
the crowded courtroom. Both militant
leaders were wo weak from hunger-strlklns;
that they had to be supported by attend
ants. Fhvslclans had advised against their
leaving the district Jail nnd traveling here,
but the two women were determined to glvs
testlinonv If needed.
Judg! Waddlll held that transfer of the
suffrage pickets to the workhouse after
they bad been sentenced to the Jail was
llltgnl. Whether they were brutally
treated, as their attorney Dudley Field
Malonc alleged, was ruled Immaterial.
