| SUFFRAGISTS AIDING
! HEALTH DEPARTMENT
Suffragists throughout the entire
| State have been enlisted under the
| panne? of “The New Preparedness.”
Called to the new colers by their
state president, Mrs. George B. Orla-
(dy, the army of women has been ac-
| cepted and will be mustered in by Dr.
Samuel @G. Dixon, Commissioner of
| Health,
The enemy of the new force is dis-
ease in every form and the end to be
‘obtained is ‘the passage by every
borough of new “model health regu-
lations,” just compiled by Dr. Dixpn.
Offering their organization to xT
State Health Department as part of
the national suffrage organization
plan to assist in combating infantile
paralysis, the Pennsylvania suffra-
gists were asked to do more by Com-
missioner Dixon, who requested as-
sistance in having all boroughs ado-t
uniform health regulations to “in-
crease the health and general resist-
ance of all against disease in gen-
gral. n
.The suffragists accepted and are
“ending throughout the state a spe-
cial leaflet just completed by Dr. Dixoa
which deals with rules to be observ-
ed by. those nursing and caring for
persons suffering from anterior pol-
iomy olitis, or infantile paralysis
in a faw days the suffagists will
forward to all their members and affi-
liated organizations the new health
regulations. These are said to be the
brcadest in scope and the most com-
prehensive issued in any state. They
were racently completed and are now
being printed. Throughout the fall
and winter the suffragists will endea-
vor to have them adopted in their
yarious localities. :
‘Adoption of the new regulations,
according to Dr. Dixon, will “mean
adding more to the happiness and pre-
paredness of our people than any oth-
gr one thing.”
Relative to the office of the suffra-
gists, Dr. Dixon said:
.“This offer of co-operation by the
large numbers of women identified
{with the Pennsylvania Woman Suff-
rage Association to assist the State
Health Department is one of the most
valuable we ever have received. Wo-
men being directly interested in the
health of children and others can :ren-
der the State valuable assistance by
working with the state health depart-
ment 'and under its direction.”
. M¥s. Orlady in her notice to suffra-
ge workers described the work to be
undertaken as “Our coi ribution to
the! gemeral welfare of
self. "We will throw all the :

ago, is in a very flourishing condi-

of about 55. A cordial invitation is

{A very interesting. sermon ‘was de

social success. Some of the boy3

back. We hope before the next festi-
val they will be better acquainted with

General Carranza has been informed
in a note handed to his ambassador in
W..hington that the United States
gov. sament is prepared to submit to a
joint international commission the !
ta:k of seeking a solution of border

accepted, however, with the sugges:

sioners be enlarged beyond the .limits |

Agreement to this suggestion is ex:

the American members would be ap
pointed and the commission be as-

S:ates at an early date.
A solution for the recent. currency

Chihuahua and the Mexican officials:

contained in messages received from
General Carranza by General Jacinto
Trevino at Chihuahua. These stated
that the recent restrictions om free

been annulled as unnecessary, as have
been extra export or import Syties at
the ports of Mexico.

Nearly seven hundre” millions for
defense in the fiscal year 1917 is the
aggregate of proposed appropriations
‘reached in the senate with passage of
| the army appropriation bill carrying
in round numbers, $314, 000,000.
This grand total for preparedness
still is subject to revision, however,
because the army bill will follow the
naval bill into conference, where re
ductions are probable, despite the
firsi attitude of President Wilson in
supporting the liberal response of the
senate to the call for defense.
Appropriations for preparedness as
they now stand are: Army, $313,970,

by the house by more than $131,000,
