Party leaders in the states of the Rockies, wedged between the mid-west and the Pacific sea board,; hare learned after much experience .that It is not possible to keep scattered groups of vo ters at fever pitch for long, so they are' conserving their energy for a whirlwind finish that will sweep their partisans to the polls on election day. Upon how well they succeed will depend the di vision the .electoral votes owned by Arizona, her border neighbor. New Mexico, and the more north ern Nevada, Utah, Colorado and Wyoming. These six, states will cast 22 votes in the electoral college, one less than half New York's quota, and they are controlled by an elec torate that approximates just one quarter the size of New York s voting populace. , ; Colorado leading with six votes, Utah having four and the others three each, they form a block that neither Herbert Hoover nor Alfred E. Smith is willing to sur render without a fight; in face both have made especial appeals to them. All of theee states are interested to some degree in wa ter power, most of them particularly-in the disputed Boulder dam project, and it was with than in mind that Hoover soon after his acceptance speech discussed the subject at Los Angeles, and Gov ernor Smith dwelt upon it in his recent Denver address. fc, TP" i 4 Isabel Pinxoir Caatilla. feminist leader, la leading a move before the Columbian roocresa at Bojro- ta to have the doors of the na- Mial nnifcrslty in Colombia ooened to women stadenta.

Sodi said that this nucleus ol passive resisters grew when mem bers of honorable families were thrown into dungeons for the "grave offense of baptising babies in their homes."
