Like North Carolina, the Tennessee
State convention ha endorsed suffrage
and nrge the governor to call a spe

points out in a letter to Governor Bob

that his responsibility is nation-wide,
something may be started in the sister

IFiCATION
Una la promised, however, in the light
Carolina is still counted favorable to
. ratiUcatioa and no stone will be left
' - untamed to get the legislators in a
frame of mind to pa the ratification
resolution in July. Tennessee already
haa presidential suffrage and a provis
ion in the constitution requires that a
legislature must be elected on the. ques-
' tion -nt iaeue -in a eenstitutiorl-r
- nmendment before it can rote on raJitt
ration, has been held- up to this time
to peent that -State from ratifying
before the 192C elections.
Legal Authority Cited.
.The decision by tiie Supreme Court
in the Ohio referendum ease - is now,
however,, according to the National
Woman's larty, held by the best -legal
'hMbority to invalidate that State con
stitutional provieion similar provis
ion also exists in the constitution of
. Florid.
Every effort will be made by the
v National Woman's Tarty to induce Grr
ernor Eobcrts of Tennessee 'te respond
favorably to the reeoluttoa recently
tion urging him to call a special session
to provide the machinery for women to
exercise the presidential suffrage ac
corded theca under the State law in the
coming elections and to include in his
rait the ratification of the suffrage
. amendment.
. Miss Su White, who has been in con
sultation with the solicitor general of
.. the United -Statea and others legal au
thorities, stated at the headquarters
of the 'Woman's Party todayr -
"I discussed this matter with Solicitor
General of the United States 'W. L.
- Frierson,. a member oft the Tennessee
tar and one of the foremost lawyers of
- the country. His official position deters
h inf f r u iu giving a written opiuiony
- and I have, not the authority to quote
any opinion he may have expressed pri-
vatt'r, fwrthrr than to any that from
my construction of all that he said I
m quite sure he has considered the
.. . question quite carefully and if in posi
tion to expren au opinion for publica
tion it would be to the effect that ratifi
cation by the present Tennessee legis
lature wouldbJegniaiiiLjirorjiirunder
" the principles 'fcrid down by the Supreme
court of the United Slates in the Ohio
case."
Senator Walsh of Montana in a letter
to Miss White dated June 18, said:
"The question- you - propound is a
moat interesting one, the proper solu-..;
tion of which is not simple. I ant 1m
pressed, however, with the view; that
it follows logically from th decision
of Hawke vs. Smith by the Supreme
" Court of the United States, popularly
, known as the Ohio Case, that the at
tempted restriction in the Tennessee
Constitution on the authority of the
Legislature in that respect is ineffective
and inoperative.
"There is, in my mind, scarcely any
limit to which one must not go logically
- with respect to conditions and reitrlc-
tion which majr be thrown about the.
' act of ratification by the Legislntune
through constitutional provisions, if we
. admit the validity of the specific re
striction appearing in the. Tennessee
Constitution."
Joseph WTolk, also in letter to
, Miss White, expressed a similar opin-
- hSR--H-d i-rrt,. "The.Suprm
Court of the United State held that
""""' Ih Federal CoBstrturion-rprovider-tho
method for its amendment, one of the
' -' methods being by the ratification of the
legislature of. three fourths of the
states. The court held that this an-
- thority of the federal constitution can
- sot be limited or restricted in any way
by provisions of. state constitutions.
"The provision of the-Tennessee eon
ttitution in question is clearly an at
'' tempt to require, that all proposals for
.. ih amendment it the feleral conititu
lion shall be submitted to a vote of the
. .. people of .the state as a condition pre
cedent to ratification by the lcginla-
tore of that state. This is what the
Supreme Court of the United ' States
"" has held could not legally be done.
Therefore, in my opinion, ratification'
by a epeeial session of the legislature,
duT"caned"T)yThrGirveTnT)r,-try-Trroc
lamttioa including . this subject, would
" answer the requiremeat of the federal'
constitution and be a legal and binding
. ratification of the nineteenth amend
ment.' '

Dr. W. D. Rodgers, Jr of

1 :
Wsrranton, June M. Dr. W. D.
Bodgers, Jr.', a popular young physician
of this city, was hurried to Baleigh
this morning for treatment of wounds
received last night at 8:45 from shot

whit farmer, who lives Wfijr . rYtrtrj

ris, to come to the bedside of hi sister
gt the Harris home. Mrs. -Harris and
her neighbor, Mrs. Evans, were'in' ih
home. Upon the approach of Dr. Kodg
ers's machine Wiley Harris commenced
cursing and accusing Dr. itodger. Mr.
Evans told him if he didn't want to
see him to leave the house nntil after
the visit. He retorted, "I want to see
Dr. Bedger and I am going to kill him
now." Suiting the action to his ex
pressed intent, he Mixed a double bar
reled shotgun and as Overby and Dr.
Bodgers stepped from the machine open
ed lire at twenty-five feet. . The num
ber six shot grazed Overby, 'leaving a
minor flesh wound, and struck Bodgers
In'lheTucoSnd'lhTOWeTK Orerby-feH
and the ypjung ..doctor ;.stsrted eros the
field toward the home of C. V. Hicks,
nrhemhe aefojjJiamLwas discharged,
the load taking effect in Dr. Bodgers'
knee.
Mrs. Evans, upon hearing the declara
tion of Harris, fled to her home and
notified her husband who, accompanied
by Hicks, came after Chief E. I Green.
A poste was soon formed, led by Chief
Green, H. H. Williams, J. A. Pipkin,
Dr. C. H. Pee to and with a warrant for
Harris and medical supplies for the
wounded took up the ehase.
The pool of blitod from the wounds
of the second shot was the first clue.
Blood stains, broken bushes and turned
stones were followed. A shout by John
Bodgers, pr. Rodgers' brother, was an
swered from the midst of n bramble
and honeysuckle thicket. .Hen Dr.
Bedger wa found in a Weakened condi
tion from loss of blood, consciousness
being retained during the four hundred
yard flight and the time elapsing until
he was found at elevea-thirty by fre
quent doses of ammonia which he took
from a small bottle.
He was esrefully removed nnd accom
panied by Dr. Peete to the Pridgin mill
in North Warrenton. Messenger were
dispatched for Norliha to hold the early
morning train, W. H. Burroughs' ear
was converted into an ambulance and
with Dr. Peete and Mrs. Bodgers the
wounded man was hurrried to Norlina
and then on to Be Hospital. . Reports
received today stato that h is painfully
though not seriously injured.
As soon as the intended victim wss
safe at the Pridgin mill Chief Green,
H. H. Williams, J. A. Pipkin, and oth
ers left in search of Harris. After
short search he was located ia a feed
bar on his farm. He refuted to com
out when ordered by Green, who imme
diately threw a flashlight glow Into the
barn, seized the gun, and with the
erowd rushed, subdued and brought Har
ris to the Warren county jail. Harris
has twice' been eonfinrd in the Stat,
asyluin and the motive for the near
tragedy is hit feeling that Dr. Rodgers
was respontible. He had previously
threatened to kill him ai well at two
other men who figured in h confine
ment proceedings. .
The town and county r deely in
terested in the welfare of Dr. Bodgers,
who is an ex-service man and who poa

. . Washington, Jan t0. Bevisioa of th
present method of making appropria
tion and re-classifkation and re-dit-tributioa
of th work of th various
executive department are recommended
by Assistant Secretary Boosevelt, in a
letter to Representative Ireland, Re
publican, of Illinois, which was mad
pubTie today at tha Navy- Department.
Mr. Boosevelt wrota U reply to an
inquiry from Mr. Ireland as ti whether
any reorganizations, reform or consoli
dations would be made in the Navy De
partment Th aasiatant secretary did
aot confine himself to that department.
He recommended that Congress:
"Create a true budget system, aot th
small beginning already attempted. -
"Consohdat . the appropriatioa ia
one general committee, with tub-commit
tecs to deal with th separate ob
ject.
'XvLto tB SW" Pr'!'r'PlM
recommended by the re-elatsifieation
committee' - report, together with the
authorisation of adequate salaries to
government employe.- -
. "Invite a conference with th execu
tive branch of th government, looking
to a re-elassif icatioa and re-distribution
of the work of the department.
"Civ by law greater authority to
th heads of th eiecfltiv departmeata
ia coudocting their executive business,
at th same timr holding these hods
more directly respoaaiblo for th suc
cessful adoiiuistration of their Work."
Say , RUtlsuhi Wisag
Mr. Boosevelt said that th "entire
system of relationship which exist be
tween Congress sad the executive de
partments i fundamentally wrong."
"Congress for various reason,'' he
aaid, -ha so tied tb hands of the
executive officer of th government that
they hava no distretiOB in the funda
mental question of employment. I d
aot believe, of course, that the civil
serrie system should bo wrped, wot or
that we should return to tli Spoils'
system, but there U altogether too
much assumptioa ia this government
that executive pmeei.yfjll,BBa. their
authority for political purpose. My
own woader is that considering the
existing eireametaaees, th employe! 6f
th government ar aa efficient as they
are."
. . A To ConMUdatio
Aa to consolidation of any bureaus,
so as to increase efficiency, Mr. Roose
velt said, s lot of work was being done
in . other departments which -'ought
properly be under the Navy and that a
great deal of work was being don by
too Kavy Department which could
properly be transferred to other de
partments. ""After seven years down here in an
executive position," he continued, "I
taiiBot-rpthr-T6flrtusi6n thal""6"ur
governmental method ar cumbersome
and wasteful.' I am equally frank in
tUSng-jron thjtllhiakt.hefljglnu
provement must com in what is after
all th source of governmental activi
ties, ie.., the legMlatm. branch. I hope
you will not Tate it as a criticism or
any individusl or this particular Con
gress when I eiill attention to the very
nuwieldy, inadequate and unbusiness
like methods under which th House snd
Senate of the United States eonduft
their business. For instance, the Navy
Department has t go before th ap
propriations committee for th money
to run the force in Washington, and I
ran cite numerous instances where the
department haa fallen between the two
fires of the -two. committees.
