Women Get Credit
for Big Registration

Hint n big registration was polled
Saturday.
As there nre 14311 election divi

total figures will net lie available un

tabulating the figures as rapidly as
possible.
It is believed that Saturday's reg
istration, the last before the No
vember elections, resulted in the
addition of between JfiO.OOO and
-00,000 voters te the list of these
qualified te cast n ballet.
The heavier registration was due
te the conscientious effort of women
political workers, according te a

chairman of the Independent Kepuh
lican Women of Philadelphia County,

MOOSE AGAINST PROJECT
The people of Philadelphia will be

want, he It large or Rniall. snld Colonel
Franklin D'OIIer, presiJcnt of the Ses-nul-Ccntcnnlal
Association, tndny. He
declined comment en the opposition te n
big world's fair.
''I believe my foremesl duty) te be
that of Interpreting that form of cele
bration which the people of Philadel
phia really want," he said. "There Is
nothing for ne te worry about. When
I wns first notified of my election ns
president of the Exposition Associa
tion I said that my first move would lie
te rind out what the citizens of Phila

Philadelphia Ledge. Ie. -i4, Leyal
Order of Meese, yesterday adopted n
resolution opposing the Sesqul-Cen-tennlal
Exposition. The Philadelphia
ledge lias a membership of 25,000. The
lcsolutleii reads in part:
"After n full discussion of the pro
posed Sesqtil-Cciitennlnl, we have
reached the following conclusiens:
"First That before entering Inte
such a gigantic preposition the wishes
of the citizens of our city Mieuld be
considered after n referendum vote.
Second We believe thnt It Is Inad
visable for our city te enter into thin
project nt this time when all our efforts
should be directed toward the recon
struction of business and Industry fol
lowing the World Wnr. We doubt very
much whether we could obtain the sc
the co-operation of ether States and
countries, te the extent necessary for
micccss.
"Third. We believe that all money
available from present taxes nnd city
leans should be used for city Improve
ments. We nre all hoping for n con
tinuation of the present building boom.
Thousands of homes should he built
within the next four years nnd this
carries with it the expenditure of vast
sums of money ey tiie city. Willi the
high cost of living
'lug nnd lollewln:? the
business depression, It would be almost
a ci line te Increase the tax rate which
uiuM no uerne ny tne taxpayers and
lent-nnver alike
"Fourth The building et a great
world's fair would attract te our city
thousand of v,-rl;incmeii who upon
uiiiipletlen of the building would be
stranded in our city nnd would come in
direct competition with our own work-
lug men.
