2 ENGLAND TO LIMIT WOMAN SUFFRAGE TO MIDDLE-AGED Premier Admits Governmenfs Plan I s Illogical and Unjustified By .Associated Press London, March 30.—Premier Lloyd George told a deputation of woman suffragists yesterday that the govern ment now is framing an electoral re form bill, in which the recommenda tions of the speaker's conference in favor of woman suffrage will be incor porated, out, he added the interpre tation of the recommendation will be left to the house. A majority of the members of> the government, said the premier, would support woman suffrage and, he did not doubt, an overwhelm ing majority of the house. lie urged the women to be content with the pres ent limitation of the vote to women aged 30 or, alternatively, 35, as recom mended by the conference, because oth erwise there was no hope of general 1 consent. The premier admitted that the limi- i tation was illogical and unjustifiable, . but expressed the conviction that once women were enfranchised they would j eventually get exactly the same fran chise as men. The indications are that the women's , leaders will adopt the premier's ad- I vice. Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst says she is quite satisfied in view of the fact j that the bill is an emergency measure | and is willing to let the House of j Commons decide.

Spanish Revolt Was Begun With a Strike ■Washington, March 30.—A revolu- : tlonary movement, which resulted in j the calling of a general strike, was directly responsible for the suspension ' yesterday by Spain of constitutional i guarantees, according to an official dis patch received to-day by Ambassador Ilia no from Madrid.

SUGGESTS RAISING TAXES FOR ROADS [Continued From First Page] recognizing the. need of extensive road I and bridge improvements to meet the!l increasing traffic, have no funds avail- | able to do the work. Each year after I expenses for maintaining the county j are met there is a balance of approxi mately $30,000. This is used for re- [ placing of old bridges with modern j concrete structures. This leaves no money for road improvements which are also necessary. Would Add $13,000 County Solicitor Philip S. Moyer does not believe a loan could be sub mitted to the people if the money it would provide is to be used for road work, and together with the county commissioners will consider the ques tion of increasing the tax rate. By adding one-half mill at least, $45,000 would be provided, which add- • ed to the additional *30,000 surplus I usually on hand, would give a fund of j $75,000 for road and bridge work. If the rate is increased one mill, i $90,000 would be available it was pointed out. Although the question hasn't been taken up officially by the commission ers. the information given by Commis sioner Hatfield has been carefully con sidered in connection with the needed improvements. Because of legal difficulties which ) Solicitor Moyer predicted might follow. : It is not probable that a vote will be , asked on a loan for the road and 1 bridge work, it is expected. \ This Is the Birthday Anniversary of— v '' W.
