EYRE BILL WILL BE BROADENED Loan Transfer Bill lo Include AJI Cities in Penn sylvania ! The Eyre bill authorizing third ; class cities to vote to transfer loans previously authorized to another ob ject was recommitted to the munici pal committee on motion of Chair man Stadtlander. The bill is that designed to enable Harrisburg to | vote to transfer a $300,000 bridge loan to the memorial bridge to be built by the State in Capitol Park. Mr. Stadtlander said the idea was to amend the bill so that it would apply to all municipalities. The Shunk bill authorizing the Public Service Commission to sus pend measured rates during legisla tion was passed by the House 150 to 19 after a debate between Messrs. Milner, Philadelphia, wiio opposed it as untimely, and Messrs. Simpson Allegheny, and Wallace. Lawrence who favored it. The House unanimously adopted a resolution presented by Mr. Helt, Northumberland, calling upon the secretary of war to order the return of the 79th Division from France at the earliest possible time. This division is largely made up of draft ed men from Eastern Pennsylvania. The resolution recites the services of the division. The Zook milk price bill was killed. Road Bills Speed on Their Journey The Dawson bill providing for issuance of the $50,000,000 road loan bond issue was reported favorably by the House ways and means com mittee soon after the lower branch met and at request of Chairman Williams of the public roads com mittee. was passed for the first time. Chairman Dawson of the ways and means committee, introduced establishing a separate sinking fund for the road bonds, stipulating that it may consist of nroceeds of public works or stocks owned by the State and appropriations and accumula tions thereon It was accompanied by an act taking from,the State fire insurance fund money heretofore sent automatically to the general sinking fund. The State sinking fund now equals all obligations. The two big State highway bills were passed for the second time without comment. They carry* over $13,000,000 for administration, State and other projects. i SUFFRAGE MAY COME UP EARLY Senator Penrose Will Deter mine What to Do About Matter It is possible that the women of Pennsylvania will be given the right to vote for candidates for President in 1920. This would be done by the enactment of a presidential suffrage act at this session of the Legislature. Whether or not this is to be done will be determined largely by United States Senator Boies Penrose, Re publican National Committeeman for Pennsylvania, % and Chairman Will H. Hays of the Republican National Committee. The Pennsylvania Legislature is overwhelmingly Republican and on the question of suffrage is disposed to do the thing which will be most advantageous to the Republican party in the nation. Some inklings have reached Harrisburg that tho national directors of the party are giving serious consideiation to the question of what Pennsylvania should do at this time in the matter of giving votes to women. Whatever decision is reached by Senator Penrose anu Chairman Hay will be carried out by the legislative leaders, even if a number of them are not personally disposed to give the franchise to women. Governor William C. Sproul is in favor of woman suffrage and if all the. lead ers unite it would be an easy matter to put through whatever legislation on the subject is decided upon. The passage of a resolution sub mitting an amendment to the State constitution giving the women equal suffrage and the enactment of a law allowing female suffrage in presi dential elections arc the two pro positions under consideration. Either or both can be passed or defeated. Big Gathering Today to Discuss Pension Measure The hearing on the Mothers' Pen sion bill will be held this afternoon by the House Appropriations com mittee and the question of giving additional funds to that cause will be considered. Already Chairman Wil liam J. McCaig. of the committee, has expressed himself as favoring an additional amount over the 1917 appropriation but whether it will approach the $1,000,000 asked for in the Vickerman bill lias not been determined.

The State is to pay half of these increases. Mr. Dunn. Philadelphia, introduc ,ed a bill permitting liquor license holders to surrender licenses and j authorizing county treasurers to "re fund a proportionate amount of the annual license fee and additional license tax" and requiring for State and municipalities to contribute to the refund amounts they have re ceived. The license proceeds al ready received are appropriated for the refund.

Sen ator Sherman, of Illinois, Repub lican, who began a speech at 7.30 a. m. and held the floor for more than four hours and prevented fur ther consideration of the railroad appropriation. The last half hour of the session was spent by the Senate in roll calls on a House resolution to which amendments were proposed providing for early demobilization of the American army. The resolu tion never reached a filial vote, amendments being under considera tion when Vice>.President Marshall's final gavel dropped. "Without Benefit of Clergy" The Senate adjourned in an up roar of laughter when the Vice- President announced that the Sen ate was adjourned sine "deo" in stead of sine "die." Half an hour before adjournment President Wilson, who with his cab inet was in the executive's private room off the Senate chamber, sign ed the $1,000,000,000 wheat guar antee measure. There was no further action in the Senate on the resolution offered last night by Republican Leader I.iOdge and signed by thirty-eight Republican members of the next Senate, opposing the League of Na tions in its present form. The House resolution urging the American peace delegates to make an effort for Irish independence also died in the Senate.

Death of the railroad measure and conferences between the President with Congressional leaders to'-day brought forth no definite sign of the President's plan of dealing with the railroads, although many Senate leaders advised the President to re turn the roads immediately to pri vate ownership.
