LF SUFFRAGETTES Gibbons Tells Graduates That Woman's Place is Home, Not Politics. (National News Association) WASHINGTON, June 11. Cardinal Gibbons told the graduates of the Immaculate seminary at their commencement exercises here that woman's place is in the home and that she has no place in politics. "The public conscience is sick," continued the cardinal, "but the public knows it. It is very quick to see and recognize moral delinquency. It is bad for a man to be sick, but if he does not know It the situation is worse. That has been the case of a large part of the Christian world for a long time. "It has been srick morally and despite the warnings of the church it continued to ignore its sickness until the cancer of open vice spread to such an extent that a realization of the seriousness of its conditions had to come and we see the result in the present general warfare being waged against white slavery and its allied vices. But with the awakening of the public conscience has come a better order of things and the world is advancing along moral lines that each day makes it a better world to live in."
