Scott, ex-PresiMrs. General of the Daughters of the dent Revolution, takes the American sensible view of the woman suffrage Before seeking the ballot question. should ponder well Mrs. women statement and seek true Scott's answer to the questions she pounds in the following: "Say what we will about moral sufferings of women in time of war.

Old age pension schemes are an admission that living wages have not been paid.

This is a point made by the Leader of San Francisco in discussing the wage question. These schemes it says begin at the pension wrong end. They may be necessary now to make up for the criminal alliance of the State with unscrupulous capital during the past but they only palliate the century, evil; they do not go to the root. The root of the evil is that men have been compelled to work for less than a living wage, which has lowered their vitality, pauperized their families, herded them in hovels, apprenticed their children to vice and driven them to the cheap consolations of the dram shop which even Holy Scripture does not deny to those laden with sorrows such as theirs. Let a living wage be given tomorrow to every workingman in America, there would still be wastrels, still the unlucky, still the sickly, but their number would not exceed the easy efforts of private charity to relieve their wants.

The old age pension is the greatest indictment of our modern economic system, and is only another form of robbing the poor to excuse the rich from the obligation of restitution. APPROPRIATE SLOGAN. The A. P. A.
