England's Suffrage War Reflections From a Local Writer
Florence Trail of ENGLAND, in a letter to The News, analyzes Sydney Brooks in Harper's Weekly and the British suffrage movement.

The piece notes Asquith's role, Labor Party alignment, and a renewed promise to extend the franchise to women.

Destruction By Flood Described From Ohio City
In a letter dated April 8 Mr Harry Wilcoxon of Columbus, formerly of this city, describes the flood devastation in the food stricken Ohio city. He notes ongoing rain and fear of higher waters, the difficulty of measuring lives lost and property damage, scenes of homes washed away, people on rooftops and in attics for over 48 hours, and thousands gathered in the business district as militiamen and police reacted to reports of a dam breach. He says much destruction remains and a large ledger would be needed to record it.
