Women Vigorously Protest i Against Present Location of Suffragist Memorial

Special to Indiana Dally Times and Philadelphia Publlo Ledger. By CONSTANCE DREXEL. WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.—Protests of ■women against the lgnomlnous treatment accorded the pioneer suffragists statue are about to bring results. Every one will remember with what eclat this marble group was presented in the rotunda of the capltol one evening last February. Firty-two national women's organizations contributed to the purchase of the memorial and participated in the impressive ceremonial of Its presentation under the brilliantly lighted dome of the National Capitol. Both the life like busts of the three pioneers who fought the early battles of the suffrage cause as they rose out of a huge six-foot square pile of marble and the impressiveness of the surroundings. seemed a fitting tribute to the womanhood of the Nation. STATUE FOUND IN JUNK HEAP. But 10, those who have since visited the rotunda of the capltol to look for the marble group could not believe thefr eyes. They had to go down stairs into t)&t crypt beneath the rotunda and there “Sver on one side with their faces against lAe wail, like naughty school children taught in a prank, were the countenances of the stern Susan B. Anthony, the gentle Lucretla Mott and the motherly Elizabeth Cady Stanton. All around the marble pile. Its ethereal, snow-like luster clouded with cobwebs end dust, were broken chairs, worn awnings and cast-off furniture. For, to all Intents and purposes, the pioneer American suffragists had been relegated to the Junk shop. The Joke of it Is that their lpnomin•eus position was literally in compliance with the acceptance terms of toe Joint library committee. It is this committee of Senators and Representatives which has to accept or reject all statues for cap-

ltoL The acceptance had stated rlrat the statues would be placed “under the dome." And the statues are literally under the dome, tut in a du3ly corner down In the crypt, used as a storeroom. EFFORT TO LOCATE RESPONSIBILITY. Who is responsible for this insult to American womanhood ? Senator Brandegee is the most popular scapegoat with Senator Wadsworth a close second. The former is chairman and the latter a member of the joint library committee. But let Mrs. Mary Wright Johnson tell about it. She is chairman of the committee for the permanent placement ot the pioneer suffrage statue and executive secretary of the District of Columbia Democratic central committee. In the former capacity she says she went to see Senator Brandegee to ask him that the memorial be moved to a place of proper dignity. “I have more important things to attend to.” was the answer to her. T’rgent pleas were then made to Eliot Woods, superintendent of the capitol buildings and grounds. “Can't move without Senator Brandegfe,” was the answer from that quarter. The upshot of it is that Mrs. Johnson, being a Democrat, has just appeale 1 telegraphically to Senator Williams of Mississippi and McKellar of Tennessee and Representatives Gilbert of Kentucky and Park of Georgia. The result is that these Democratic members saw their chance and wired back a request to superintendent Moods for the immediate removal of the suffrage statues to a suitable place. Republican women at Republican national headquarters, hearing of this move, are communicating with the Republican members of the committee. “Don’t give the Democrats snch a talking point againut us," or words to that effect. In view of this activity. It is expected

that the pioneer suffrage statue will be moved from its dusty corner within a Tery few days. The National Women’s party, heaviest contributors to the gift, don’t object to the memorial remaining in the crypt. But they want it placed in the center and they want the broken furniture cast ofTs, awnings and other debris cleared out. Then they propose to surround the snow white statues with palms and growirg flowers, making the w'hole thing a dignified tribute to the womanhood of America, open to all tourists and slglftseers. WOMEN IN DISARMAMENT CONFERENCE. The prominent activities in Europe of Miss Jane AdJams, as reported in cable dispatches, focuses attention upon her as one of the representatives of American womanhood at the coming disarmament conference. That there is strong possibility of the appointment of more than one woman among the twelve members of the advisory council next In importance to the four delegates, is now being discussed. Miss Jane Adams and Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt are among those prominently mentioned because of their prestige in European countries. —Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Company.
