REFORMER LECTURES

Conditions as they exist today in West Hammond were cited as an argument in favor of woman's suffrage by Miss Virginia Brooks last night at the meeting of the Equal Suffrage Associa tion of Indiana and the Central Labor Union at Tomlinson hall at Indiana polis. Miss Brooks was Introduced by Mayor Shank of Indianapolis. She delivered an address similar to that given before the Women's Franchise League at its recent state convention at the Claypool hotel, telling; of her work in attempting to reform West Hammond and of the corrupt political practices said to exist there. She said that children 5 years old are taught to shoot "craps" and drink whisky in dives owned and controlled by city officials. She. declared that the health officer of West Hammond at one time was a one-eyed saloonkeeper and that the Insanitary conditions of the city made it necessary for mothers to skim the flies from milk before feeding it to their children. Shown Ballot Need. These conditions Miss Brooks portrayed as proof that women should be given the ballot. She asserted that conditions In all small cities are almost as bad as in West Hammond, and predicted that women, if given the opportunity, would soon Improve social conditions, especially in the smaller cities. "Are fathers In West Hammond interested in their children?" was asked Miss Brooks by a man In the audience at the conclusion of her address. luncheon was served. ' Twelve covers were laid.

BEFORE A BIG CROWD

"Tou can not blame the fathers." was the reply. "They are not to blajme because they are ignorant, and do not understand our language, customs and laws." "Do the men In West Hammond who can not read or write., have a right to vote?" was another question asked Miss Brooks. "Yes, they do," she replied, her black eyes flashing. "I would like to ask," quered a man in the rear of the hall, "if women would use good judgment If given the ballot?" Mrs. A. M. Noe, vice president of the association, arose to answer tton"I will answer that question," she said, "by asking of Julia Ward Howe was intelligent enough to vote?" Social Ut. Dominate Meeting. Repeatedly the meeting was swayed by socialistic oratory and socialistic arguments. The audience of 2.000 persons, which is believed to h.tve been the largest that has attended a suffrage meeting in the history of the state, was swept with unconcealed astonishment at the flood of socialistic oratory, while from the galleries of the hall hundreds of socialises applauded, cheered and whistled their appreciation at the re-1 marks of three socialist speakers. !
