MISS ROBERTSON 4

WARS ON LEAGUE AS BOSS CLIQUE Only Woman in Congress Declares League of Women Voters 'Snubbed Me.'

WASHINGTON. May 9. Rep. Alice Robertson of Oklahoma, today

"declared war to the finish on the American League of Women Voters and other political organizations, which she declared have been trying to tell her what to do In congress. "It's war from now on between the League of Women Voters, and other like organizations, and myself," the only woman In congress said. "They have been trying to boss me long enough. Just because I insist upon representing the people of the second Oklahoma district, who Bent me to congress, instead of cliques of women over the country, they have been knocking me. Now I propose to strike back whenever I can, and as hard as I can. It's a fight from now on." Misj Robertson declared that the League of Women Voters gave her a

"deliberate snub" in not inviting her to the recent Pan-American women's congress at Baltimore and In not i

arranging a meeting between her and Lady Astor, the only woman member of the British parliament, who is now visiting America. "Lady Astor and I are supposed to oceupj similar positions, and the obvious and polite thing for the league to have done would have been to arrange a meeting for us. But nothing of the kind. I met Lady Astor, thank3 to the National Press club, and had a very pleasant chat with her. But it was in spite of the efforts of th League of Women Voters." The League of Women Voters. Miss Robertson charged. I3 "a democratic organization at the head, and la doing everything possible to mix up In this year's political campaigns and make things hard for the repub

licans. "I know what I'm talking abo

she declared. "Mrs. Carrie Chapman

Catt used to be very outspoken for Woodrov Wilson. Fhe's still a democrat. So is Maud Wood Park. The League has a great many republicans in its Pennsylvania branch, but I guess that's because democrats there are hard to find. "The main trouble with the League is that the leaders are only willing to consider one side of a question. If you think their way you are alright, but If not, it's 'get out.' "They say they represent several

million women, but the leaders of i the organization really represent ' very little except their own clique." 1

IiOS AXOELES, Cal.. May ! Are women Jurors more prejudiced against the infliction of the death penalty than men? This question, left to the individual criminal attorney to answer at his own hazard when women were first driwn to act as jurors, has apparently been solved by time and experience. Within the pa.st year more than a score of persons have been placed on trial in Los Angeles criminal courts charged with murder. In each cae there have been women on the panel from which the jury was finally selected. A comparative list of those who have (been excused from jury dut bpcau?e of conscientious scruples against the infliction of the death penalty reveals that the o-calle1 "weaker sex"' hive no more qualms over decreeing the death penalty than men. Obcnclialn Ca so Citel In the selection of the jurj to hear the evidence against Midelvnne Obenchaln. charged with conspiring to slay her former lover. J.

Melton Kennedy, twenty-four prospective jurors out of a total of seenty-two were excused because of objections to the death penalty. Of this number only nine were women. The fact that more wee not r :.pe.'-d t - tn '1: n penalty may have been due to the comeliress of the defendant and also because women are harder on the:own sex than is chivalrous man. However, in cases where men have been en trial for death-penalty offerees the ritio has been "fiftyfifty." Recently there wcie f!x pers'ns on trial at the same time charged with murder. Of that number only two verdicts have been returne J so far. In all the instances but one the jury w?s made up of four women and eight men. In each ca.e where one was returned the verdict was manslaughter, despite the fact that the defendants were charged with murder. According to the results of recent murder trials, it is apparent that the "woman species" l no more deadly than the male, nor any le?3 when serving as a Juror.
