CLARA WDLD FREE AGAIN ANOTHER JAIL TERM AT WASH INGTON FINISHED. Efflgy-Bnrnins Episode at White House Is Denounced by Republi cans and Democrats. OREGON7AN NEWS BUREAU. 'Wash ington, Feb. 22. Miss Clara Wold of Portland has completed another Jail sentence of five days for picketing in front of the White House. Miss Wold was one of the 33 suffragists arrested in the effigy-burning episode in front of the White House on February 9, which is supposed to have had much to do with the defeat of the suffrage resolution In the Senate on the follow ing day. Democrats condemn the act as unpatriotic and the repumicans ae- nounce it as silly, and it is said to have Influenced two votes in the senate apainst the resolution. One additional vote would have submitted the resolu tion to the legislatures for ratification. One week before ber arrest Miss Wold was to have sailed for Kurope, but her passport was canceled when It was learned that she was planning to picket the peace conference. There Is said to be some little resentment by those who aided Miss Wold to obtain a passport. It appears to have been rep resented to them that she was going to France to represent a weekly paper published in Portland and that she told them nothing of her intentions to carry banners assailing President Wil son which were to be displayed outside the doors of the peace conference and also in front of the mansion occupied bv President and Mrs. Wilson. After the passports were canceled the head quarters of the National Woman s party issued a statement revealing tne real purpose of Miss Wold's intended trip. Loulce Bryant, formerly oi i-oniana. and wife of John Keed. author and war correspondent, also was released from Jail with Miss Wold after five days' imprisonment for the same offense.
