Of voting for Presidential electors.
Chairman Lucia Ames Mead Of the
Committee on Peace ard Arbitration,
In her report said:
women though hating war as fire.
quently as men. are deluded by the
plea that peace can be ensured only by
huge ornaments. 1t is the question
whether women's suffrage would great
ly lessen the vote for these supposed
representatives. of war but there is no
question that further reliance On rea-
son and less on force would exalt re-
spect for women and would relieve the
objection that woman's muscular infe-
riority had anything to do with suf-
frage."
