SAYS PRES. WILSON IS SUFFRAGE'S HOPE

Mrs. Harper Says President's Letter Is "Straw That Will Break Camel's Back."

I v *, ». *Y •.? •*^-..* .• a j-\ -r .-

"For myself, I will not ask for aufi"rag os a war measure,*' declared Mrs. Ida Husted Harper in an informal address on "The Present Status of the Federal Amendment" at the First Concregational church Tuesday evening. Mrs. Harper spoke under the auspices of the Terre Haute "Woman's JYanohise league to a larg'e audience. Mrs. Harper is a woman of national repute as both lecturer and writer. "I will not ask for suffrage on the :-treijgU» of the services the women iave rendered the government* during this war," she said, "because the services of the women of this country "nave een just as important as those of the men since the nation was founded at any and all periods and they have been just as Important to the welfare of the country at any and all times as they ire now. But, if they five us the vote as a war measure, we are willing :o take it. We will welcome the vote in any form that it may come to us. "One of. the strongest arguments, ot perhaps, most used arguments against women voting in the past has been that .women could not go to war. But aow the women are going to war they i.re doing- everything that Is being askof them in the prosecution of the arar. In New York Gov. Whitman or

Jored

every woman coming'within eer*.tin age limits to register for war service, attaching a prison sentence or those who did not. 'During the »civil war, men told the women, who were working then for enfranchisement, to drop the matter unil after the war and suffrage woul'd ie granted them. The women did so iiniV the matter was forgotten by the men when the war closed.

they

are telling us to put off th-^ demand for suffrage until this world war is settled. But we're not going to take such chances. "Now in Denmark, right at the very iobr of the war, almost within hearing .f the artillery, they stopped long enough to give their women full suffrage in 1915. And England, who has 'uid much more to do than we have, who has .had hardships that have not come to up, whose suffering has been much greater than ours perhaps will ever be, stopped long enough to enfranchise her women. "When will we get that amendment? i believe fully that we will get it before the month of June is over. I believe the letter written by the president recently to senators will be the straw to break the camel's back. "President Wilson has been consistent since he became converted to woman suffrage in working for it. He out the plunk in the democratic platform which called for it state by state. And then when the war came, he saw \.hat wonderful work the women could do and did, and so for several weeks, lie is been writing in his own handwriting and on his own personal letter head to senators urging them to vote for !he federal amendment and asking them to call on him to discuss it."

Mrs. Harper set out that there were HC. states jet to get the right of woman suffrage. If but one of these a year came in. it would require 36 years before every woman in the United t?iates could vote. If two came in annually, It would require 18 years. "That is entirely too long," she declared. "We must have the federal amendment to save the women fro*» ?.nneoc-ssary expenditure of time, interest and funds. There are other things to be done and the women are uaeded to do them."

Here are the facts. A manufacturer, with whom we have done business for many years, contracted for almost double the quantity of Silks he could use merely to obtain a lower-than-market price. The Silks arrived unexpectedly. To turn part of them into cash quickly, he offered to make upwards of 3,000 Shirts for us at his low cost of materials plus the labor—so we procured them at less than today's wholesale cost of the Silks alone.
