ApsocJatei Prss Service:

A FRENCH SEAPORT. July 7.

The American troops today entered

on the final steps of the mobiliza

tion that shall prepare them to leave

within a few days for a permanent

training camp somewhere behind

the firing line. The unloading of

supplies Is almost finished and roll

ing stock is being concentrated

hero preparatory to the departure of

the troops. The days have been

used profitably for a double pur

pose. The more important one was to

put the majority of the soldiers

through a vigorous grind of eight

full hours each day. French officers

who had seen service at the front

took part in these services in order

to give the benefit of their experi

ence to the American soldiers. The

drills included a daily plunge into

the sea, this phase of the sanitation

proldem being made easy by tho

proximity of the camp to the ocean.

Camp Is Miles Ixmg.

The other advantage taken of the

time spent here was to employ

smaller groups of the more seasoned

troopers to put the final touches on

the camp fo that it will be in first

class shape. The tamp in the last

few days has been expanded enor

mously until today it extends for

milts and can accommodate a large

number of men. Water has been

piped from the town and the system

is equipped with every modern de

vice. The drill ground not only is ideal

for the purpose, but has the ad

vantage of being at a distance so

that the men get a daily hike of

about five miles.

Will IaAo In House.

For the men arriving at this and

similar mobilization bases the Amer

can system tf living in tents or

wooden shacks will be followed, hut

when they arrive at a permanent

camp they will be billeted among

the townspeople and live in houses.

Few. if any, of the soldiers know

Just where they are to be sent, but

all are enthusiastic at the prospect

of getting nearer the scene of ac

tion. Their spirits are fine and

their health is of the best with th

exception of a few cases of mumps.

Assented Press Service:

I,ONnox, July 7. The second

descent upon London by a squadron

of airplanes was made this morning

between rJ and H o'clock when the

business section or the metropolis

was most crowded. Although the

German contingent was larger,

more daring, more deliberate in its

movements, and descended much

lower than on the visit of June 13,

the number of killed and wounded

was, according to the first otficial

roll roughly one-third the previous

casualty list. The destruction of

property may have heen greater but

that is impossible to estimate.

The flight of the Germans over

London lasted about 20 minutes.

Hritish airm?n engaged the enemy

for several minutes over the metro

firing briskly, dotting the sky with

shrapnel puffs, but without success

which constituted the invading

force.

The admiralty was aid? to report

ton'ght, however, that naval airmen

who followed them to sa brought

down three machines. A British

squadron sent up from Dunkirk to

intercept the returning raiders did

not encounter them beciuse they

had taken a more northerly roeite

but the British airmen n et and de

stroyed seven other German ma-e-hines.

The morning was one of haze,

On their former visit, ma le in simi

up in the mists, but today when they

reared their onectives most of them

descended. Their formation was like

SAYS SUFFRAGE

IN STATE SHAKY

Dr. Effie McCullen Jones De

clares Indiana Women

On Thin Ice.

"eek first woman suffrage, and

all these things shall be added unto

you."

So parodied Dr. Ktfie McCullen

Jones, held director in the thirteenth

congressional district for the Na

tional Suffrage association, the Bi

ble phrase. Also she accused the

women of Indiana of being too self

confident, and suggested even that

the suffrage clause in the proposed

new Indiana constitution provide

only for women, to give the men

an opportunity to try out their pet

theory of a suffrage amendment.

All this in her address before South

Rend women Saturday night in the

Chamber cf Commerce building.

Treading On Thin lit-.

"Indiana women do not know that

their suffrage rights are on very

thin Ice," declared Dr. Jones. -A

'joker' slipped into the most inno-

cent-lookin bill could rob them of

all the voting, privileges they now

enjoy. The Only way to secure per

manent sufrage is by embodying it

in the cons:itution. Women should,

therefore, use their much-touted 'in

direct influence in the selection of

delegates to the constitutional con

vention." Dr. Jones was lately appointed t

dean at Lombard college. (lalesburg.

III., but refused the position to go

on her lecture tour.

Speaks at Spriitgbrook.

In the afternoon Dr. Jones spoke

at Springbrook park on the enfran

chisement of women and censored

the women of Indiana for their lark

of interest and enthusiasm in the

outcome of th constitutional con

vention. "The men have made a

mess of pontics and it's time the

professional housekeepers started

cleaning it jp." she said.

Dr. Jone spoke strongly for the

suffrage cai.s giving statistics at

some length. "Seventy-tive yars a-o

the anti-suf-"rag;sts ruled the world

and today fvery chilized country

Rr.d some not so ivilized are en

franchising their women." shp said.

At the end of the war all of th for

eign countr.es will have suffrage

and will th United States women,

who have always been the example,

be the only ones who are p.ot en

franchised? she demanded.

mentioned Kerensky, the minister

of war, who has sent the armies of

mention of the Muscovite, "m.m of

Then Buthonberg called for 5.1

The meeting was well under way

when a fresh tumult was caused by

A. Reutovich, representing the, Rus

sian workers in the United states,

when he declared the only way to

make the "world safe for democ

a victorious end.

It was. evident there were many

pacifists in the throng for this bat

tle cry brought a .Ktorm of hies.

which steadily increased in volume.

The situation was saved by a dele

gation of Russian sailors who leaped

to their feet and wildly applauded

Reutovich's sentiments. The chair

man called upon the band to play

the "Hymn of New Russia." This

was something every one was will

ing to cheer and finally order was

restored after detectives had ejected

four persons who were especially

boisterous.

SOCIALIST PARTY

OPPOSED TO WAR

Referendum Shows Vote of

21,639 to 2,752 Favoring

Committee Statement.

Associated Props Service:

CHICAGO, July 7. Members of

the socialist party in the 1'nitcd

States, hae approved by an over

whelming majority the statement of

the party's opposition to the war

with lerm iny mhmitted by the ma

jority of the committee ,n war and

militarism apooinU-d by the St.

Louis convention last April. Th

party's executive committee, m t

ing here today, annoumvd that th

te of the majority prorlam.it ion

was 21 XV. to '2,"-2.

Tiie socialist party, according to

the referendum, opposes tbe en

trance of the I'nifed States it. to the

war, but advocates the application

of socialistic doctrines to war meas

ures. The two principal innovations

urgrd are the roni-ription of wealth

a i well as of men. and public owner

ship of all national industries ut'il

to the prosecution of the war. Dif

mii.ority hrr.cI.:!;:,it:o!i cor.:.-t'-d

chiefly in the far that the minority

recommendations omittf.i the

pramhle in which the majority con

demned th war in extreme terms

as th "most nni'Jstiocd war in the

history of the world".

Minority Against all War.

It wa explained that the minority

agreed with other socialists in op

posing war in general, but argued

that with this country already

plunged into hosti!ii'.s the party

should devote ite'f to n practical

WASHINGTON. July 7. Th

senate vent on record today in fa-

vor of "bone dry" nation ,1 juohil i-

tion during the war so far a

whiskey and other distilled bever

ages ar concerned.

I.i'pinr legislation was written In-,

to the food control bill In one of

the senate's bitterest contests which ;

would strike at consumptiiTn of dis

tilled intoxicants by comma ndering"'

stocks in Pond in addition to abso

lutely prohibiting their manufao-

ture or importation. The brer and

wine industries would l e efi undis

turbed. In lieu of the section of the hon

hill to prohibit the manufacture of

foodstuffs into bc v rages of any

desc ription, vh" snte substituted

by a vote of 4:, to a provision

prohibiting manufacture and im

portation of distilled leverages

during the Avar, and nddol. f.5 tu

12, a further clause directing tho

president to take o er all distilled

spirits in covernuient bonded ware

houses and pay for it on the basi.s

of cost plus 10 per cent.

IIouso .May Aovpt hang

While the federal prohibition

legislation will he oled in con

ference between the two houses, it

is generally regarded as possible

that the house will accept the sen

ate's ehan-'e after a ficht in behalf

of the original section.

The senate provision would limit

consumption to stocks in retailers

hands or withdrawn before the law

goes into effect. Stocks of distilled.

be-rages in bond were climated

tonight at between 2fn cce 000 and

r00,00r'.000 gallons nnd the annual'

normal cons-u m pion at leiAA..
