Convention Legal, But Not Suffrage, is Court’s Finding.

Indianapolis, June 25.—The act of the 1917 legislature calling a constitutional convention is valid in its provisions, except ■ for the section giving women the right to vote for delegates to the convention, Judge W. W. Thornton, of the Marion superior court decided late today. The ruling was made in a suit filed by Henry W. Bennet, which asked that the act be declared invalid and also attacked the privilege given women to vote for delegates. An appeal to the Indiana supreme court will be taken immediately by both sides.
