THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, JUNE 31, 1918. SUFFRAGE FIGHT TO OPEN NEXT WEEK FACTOIRY n mA AY r Both Champions of Women and Opposition Confident t. of Senate Victory. FILIBUSTER TO BE BARRED Hall is of New Hampshire Announces Thr, He Will Call Up Constitu tional Amendment Resolu 4 tion Jfejtt Thursday. WASHINGTON, June 20. (Special.) Senator Hollis, of New Hampshire, gave formal notice to the Senate today of the intention of the woman suffrage committee to call up the suffrage con stitutional amendment resolution next Thursday. Senator Hollis also announced that while no agreement had been reached as to a time for the vote, it had been agreed among the leaders on both sides of the important issue that there would be no filibuster. In view of this and the probability that discussion will not be extended. Senator Hollis said it was probable that a vote will be reached on the same day. Suffrage leaders tonight were making confident predictions of victory, while anti-suffragists insisted that the reso lution lacks from three to five votes of the necessary two-thirds majority. One of the most influential of Senators who oppose the resolution said tonight that It would be defeated by four votes. Tea Votes in Donbt. On paper tonight ten Senators were classed as doubtful on the issue. Presi dent Wilson's influence and other rea sons have prompted the suffragists to claim at least seven of these doubtful votes. If they get that many, the reso lution will be adopted. Senators who positively favor the resolution are: Ashhurst. Calder, Chamberlain, Colt, Cum mins, Curtis. Fall, Fernald, France. i'reling huysen, Galllnger, Goff, Gore. Gronna. Hard ing. Henderson, Hollis, Johnson, California; Johnson. South Dakota; Jones, New Mexico; Jones. Washington; Kenrlck, Kenyon.

Smith, Arizona; Smith, Michigan; Smoot, Sterling, Thomas, Thomp send. Vardaman, 'Walsh, Warren, Watson, Wilfley. Total, 57. Opposing; Senators 29. Senators who oppose the resolution re: Sankhead, Brookfaam, Brandegree, Dil lingham, Hale, Hardwick, Hitchcock, James, Knox. Lodge, McLean, Martin, Overman, Penrose. Pomerene. Reed, Saulsbury. Shields, Simmons, Smith, Georgia; Smith. Maryland; Smith, South Carolina; Swanson, Tillman, Underwood, Wadsworth, Weeks, Williams, Wolcott. Total 29. Doubtful: Baird, Borah, Culberson, Fletchec, Gerry, Guion, Kellogg, King, Sutherland, TrammeU. Total. 10. Necessary for adoption with all Sen ators present and voting, 64. Of the 10 doubtful Senators, the fol lowing are expected to vote for it, ac cording to suffrage leaders: Baird, Gerry, Guion, Klellogg and King 5. Anti-suffragists claim that the fol lowing will surely vote against it: Borah, Culberson. Fletcher, Sutherland and Trammell 5. Two Votes May Be Lacking. Conceding the suffragists the five doubtful Senators listed for them, the total for the resolution would then be S2, or two short of the necessary ma jority. But in the f ace of this prospect the suffrage leaders are by no means down cast. They believe that they will get at least two of the Senators and prob ably more on whom the antis are counting absolutely. They believe that President Wilson's eleventh-hour championship of the res olution will prevail on some of these Senators to vote for the proposal, and they are counting on Senator Culber son, of Texas, and either Senator Fletcher or Senator Trammell. of Flor ida, or both, to vote with them. If these expectations are realized the amendment resolution will be adopted. Some of the suffragists even insist that Senator Borah, who has stead fastly maintained that the suffrage question is a state and not a Federal problem, will vote with them. Doubtful Senators) Silent. AH the doubtful Senators, however, are maintaining strict silence as to their intentions, and it is not likely that any of them will give any indi cation of his final decision until the roll is called on the resolution. It isalso improbable that there will be a full attendance when the vote is taken. In fact. Senator Townsend, of Michigan, announced today his regret that it had been decided to call up the resolution next week, because it would be impossible for him to be here owing to sickness in his family. Senator Townsend, however, is paired with Senators Saulsbury and Shields, who oppose the resolution. Owing to the two-thirds majority re quired, two votes against the resolu tion must be paired with each vote for it. It is not likely that Senator James, of Kentucky, who is ill, will be pres ent. Senator LaFollette has long been absent and so have Senators Gore and Goff. The three last named, however, are expected to be in their seats when the roll is called. 1!.

COURT INDORSES VERDICT necessity for national unity, especially at this particular time, is emphasized by Premier Lloyd George in a letter to Mr. Greet, the coalition candidate for the House of Commons in the Clapham division, who is being opposed for the seat. "The only issue at the" present time is national unity," the Premier's letter reads. "In a resolve to subordinate everything to winning the war, the Ger mans are bent on undermining the morale of the allies by promoting dis trust behind the lines. We have got to show that until the attempt of an un scrupulous military oligarchy to im pose its despotism on the world has been definitely defeated, nothing can turn us aside from our goal." 835 HUN PLANES DOWN DESTRUCTION BV ALLIES HEAVY IX SIX MONTHS.

Rutherford and Seven As sociates Convicted on All Four Indictments at Trial Held at New York. NEW TORK, June 20. Joseph ' F. Rutherford and seven other defendants, followers of the late "Pastor" Russell, tonight were found guilty of conspir ing to violate the espionage law by a jury in the Federal court. Violation of the law is not excused by the plea that it was done in the service of God, declared Judge Howe in Federal court here late today. In charging the jury. The defendants were accused ol Dreaching sedition in "Pastor" Rus sell's posthumous book, "The Finished Mystery," and with advising resistance to the draft. Motive Main Consideration. 'If you find, said Judge Howe, "that these defendants purposely said, wrote or published what they did in a wilful attempt to cause insubordination, dis loyalty or refusal of duty, or a wilful obstruction to the recruiting or enlist ment service, this would constitute criminal intention, notwithstanding that you may also find that they in tended to serve 'God' and were not conscious of doing anything unlawful, because they did not know the law." Concerning "The Finished Mystery" and other publications offered in evi dence in the trial. Judge Howe said: "It makes no difference whether the language is original with the defend ants or is quoted from some other author. If the defendants selected. printed, sold or otherwise published a book or paper containing it. the use of quotation marks does not relieve them from liability from such use and publication." Court Approves Verdict. When the jury filed into the court room and the foreman announced that all of the defendants had been found guilty on all four counts in the in dictments against them. Judge Howe's comment was that the verdict was thoroughly right." The maximum penalty which can be imposed on each defendant is 40 years' imprisonment. Besides Rutherford the defendants were William E. Van Amburgh, Robert J. Martin, Fred H. Robinson, George H. Fisher, Clayton J. Woodworth, A. Hugh McMillan and Giovanni de- Cecca.
