the fact that one>siKtn Of the deputies are

followed by a striking success of women
candidates az the polls. Forty-uine candi-
dates were nominated and nineteen were
elected, the votes recorded by women in
many instances showing a preponderance
over those cast by the men
This was largely due TO the enthusiasm
OF the women voters as organized by the
leaders Of the womens rights movement.
In several places the elections were re-
