Southern California VOL. XXXIX! SEES CALAMITY IF HIRAM WINS. Woman Democrat Chief Flays Johnson as Selfish. Mrs. Bass Says Her Sex Very Strong for the Treaty, Declares Suffragette Vote Will Make Itself Felt.

Declaring she would consider it a world calamity if Hiram Joh ason should ever be elected President of the United States, Mrs. George of Chicago, chairman of the women's bureau of the Democratic Committee, expressed the Naticinal during a brief stay yesterday on her way to San Francisco thAt the next President will be elected by the suffragette vote. "I am no soap-box suffragettle, shouting from the housetops about the great moral purification which is to take place after the women gut voting, but I do think they are going to cut a big figure in the coming election." said Mrs. Bass. "Not body can forecast what women wiil do in politics a dozen years front now.

L'ut I believe it can safely be said that nearly 25,000,000 of them will vote this fall and that they will! vote for national prosperity and, world peace." League of Nations would be made Asked if she thought that they campaign issue this year, Mrs. Bass exclaimed: "Indeed, I do, and it should be made the campaign issue. We women of the Democratic party will gladly go into a campaign on the League of Nations. for the League wants it, because I don't the various reservations are sufficient consequence to merit discussion, but if the popular sentiment is for reservations I will accept moderate ones. and I think most other women will.

too." Mrs. Bass is emphatic in her declaration that women all over the country are strong for the treaty. She is severe in her denunciation of Senator Johnson, saying his viewpoint is entirely selfish and his vision not even national, to say nothing of not being international. She says she feels certain of a big suffragette vote this year, because the great work women were called upon to do during the war awakened their interest and made them feel that they can perhaps better social and industrial conditions in this country if they take a hand in the election of city, county, State and national officials. She was reticent In regard to Republican politics, but declared that nothing would please her better than to see Knox nomimated by the Republicans.

She intimated that she looks for a dark horse to win the nomination, and that he will come from east of Indiana.

SPITE of the recent ukase of Long Beach's Commissioner of Public Safety against women's bathing suits of the ultra-frank Variety, and the ordinance prepared by him which would have made girl bathers wear short sleeves, skirts extending one-third the distance from the hips to the knees and stockings, the beach there is more interesting to students of bifre facts this year than ever before and girls there still are buying men's bathing suits in preference to womat the divine ratio of 15 to 1.

The reason is that the ordinance has been shelved, not because Long Bench loves modesty less but that it loves business more. arguments that everyone was wearIng 'em, that Long Beach might as well be out of the world as out: of the fashion; that it really ought to encourage its youths to stay at home instead of going to Venice, and all similar pleas were shattered against the rock of the commissioner's determination. But when the Long Beach merchants set forth that, judging by past experience, they had stocked none but the most cloth- conserving of bathing suits for women, the Long Beach solons decided that business is bustness, and pigeon -holed the ban, Last year, according to the merchants, fifteen out of every sixteen women who bought bathing suits in Long Beach chose either men's suits womera's suits which ad-. vertised, among other things, their wearers' patriotic zeal in cloth econ- omy, PEEK STARTS IT. BY LEE SHIPPEY.

The trouble in Long Beach began, according to the factions, when the town selected Commissioner of Public Safety. Not only was he formerly from Nowa, but his was Peek, W. M. Peek. Mr.

Peek became extremely piqued when he took a peak at the sights along the beach, and also at the visions. When he voiced disapproval, many people appealed to him to let well enough alone. They appealed to him in the nante of art for art's sake, and also for the love of Mike, not to interfere. Then Mr. Peek drifted about from group to group of masculine observes who seemed to be studying the subject and hearkened to their conversation.

Their comments did not convince him that they were art students. this comparison of a girl in a bathing suit to a classic picture is nonsense," declared Commissioner Peek. "A picture is a picture and may be admired as such. A live girl in an immodest bathing suit 19 a distinctly different And Peek hurried back to his office to prepare a drastic ordinance. Mr.

Peek's intimation that there were "live girls" in Long Beach was a distinct shock to the town, and he received many assurances that the population was back of him to an ex-Iowan. Two Or three church organizations adopted resolutions indorsing his attitude, and the Council appeared to be with him solidly. However, there were many protests, too. In Los Angeles, for instance, even Annette Kellerman and Dr. J.

Whitcomb Brougher 80 far overcame their natural shrinking from publicity as to make statements in favor of permitting bathers, while in the water, at least. to wear suits which hampered them as little as possible. A comparison of modern bathing suits with those of 1890 and 1900 reminds one of the once famous advertisement showing two boys, the mother of of whom used wool soap, while other's mother didn't. An 1890 girl's bathing suit would be considered a trifle long for street dress now, while the modern ones are strictly modern. "Strictly modern," as applied to houses, always suggest exposed plumbing, In the last ten years the bottom of girl's bathing suits have gone up as rapidly as has the 1 cost of living.

No one can look at I even a picture of the latest ones without realizing it is time to call a halt. The Long Beach merchants admitted all that, but persistently pointed to the money they would lose. It would be much cheaper, they argued, to buy a pair of blinders for Mr. Peek. And this year.

they pointed out, bathing suits cost real money. So the breaking waves at Long Beach still can dash high above the knee and never splash a drop on the dainty suits higher up, and people no longer have to guess at just how -legged their friends and neighbors are.
