Following '.he organization of a nonpartisan, non-militant and non-sectarian wo man voters' " league, ' the afternoon stssion of the National American Woman Suffrage association ad journed late today without deciding on a 'name for the league. The motion of adjournment came follow , ing twe hours of heated debate as , to the name best suited for the uewlv-founded organization. . thould not be applied until after the convention in February, 1920, in order, that the present name of the .association be in effect, as the con vention is to be a centennial cele bration of Susan B. Anthony's birth- , clay. ' ' The object of the new organiza tion, which is in the form of two from voting, states and the other from non-voting stateSi is to secure protection in their right to voteto the women citizens -of the United States by appropriate national and state legislation and to increase the effectiveness of women's votes in ef fecting better government. . Delegates from the non-voting Mates shall compose the house of delegates and those from suffrage i states the house of voters.

N "This country is riding over the top of a volcano," said R. C. Howe. "We're overloeking the fact that the housing problem is the most serious problem facing the country. It is the biggest factor in settling the so cial unrest. The man with a decent home and good living conditions isn't ready to listen to dangerous agi tators. Strikes would be avoided and more efficient labor result if more care was given to housing con ditions." ; J. W. Gamble brought out the fact that much of the setback given the post-wat problems was the term ' "readjustment," and the common belief that conditions and prices were to resume their pre-war level.

The purpose of all has been to Americanize the schools, although there has been some differences as to how this would be accomplished. What Changes Made.
