INEQUALITY IS
REAL DISCORD
MRS. ], HOUGH OUTLINES HER
THEORY OF BONDAGE
DECLARES THAT WOMEN SHOULD
BE ON FOOTING WITH MEN
AIleqiance to King Alcohol Another
Evil Pointed Out to the Con-
eress of Reform at
Berkeley
By Associated Press)


BERKELEY, July l.-Ioday ses-
sion of the congress of reform when
is being held in this city under the
ausnices of the w. c. T. u, was de-
voted to the consideration of woman
suffrage, and among the speakers
were some who have attained natlohal
prominence in the movement.
Mrs. j. Hough of Sacramento deilV-
cred what was probably the most inn
portant address of the day.
1--WE of America boast of freedom
with two-thirds of our citizenship III
BONDAGE" she said Yes, l Will VEN
ture to say with 50 per cent of then
abiect slaves to one thing or another;
for, after all, he who acknowledges al
legiance to king alcohol and the hquor
traffic. to the beguiling drug ana lts
long train of passions and degrading
habits, is the worst of slaves. ANA
l will venture to further state that
the unequal relation between man ana
woman today is the primary cause OF
the worlds discord.
Points Out Pure Conditions
"When every man on earth treats
every woman on earth as he would
have other men treat his own sister,
then. and then only, shall we attain
a pure social condition.
"Why endeavOr to reform conditions
that are rotten to the core? For the
nest decade we have watched the
worlds efforts to uncover sin, and
truly it is amusing Do not spend
more time or put forth more efforts
trying to reform Reyolutionize and
begin all over again. 1t is the duty
of this great republic of ours to estab-
lish the ideal commonwealth, and we
need go back no further than our own
Declaration of Independence for the
first equation"
Mrs. Hough closed her remarks by
stating that woman would no longer
employ deceit and subterfuge to gain
an advantage once she is accorded the
privileges she seeks.
Claims Experience Is Essential
Mrs. p H. Truax, superintendent of
the franchise department of the state
W. G. Z. L., made a plea for the en-
franchsement of women.
"Woman suffrage is necessary for
good government" said Mrs TruaX.
"Where women have chance they can
understand the problem of government
as well as men. Women VINO have no
knowledge of worldly work and oppOr-
tunities are not prepared to mother the
race"
Mrs. Mary S. Sperry, state president
of the suffrage workers, aroused en-
thusiasm when she said:
1--WE will have suffrage, for there
is now no way of stopping it, The
cause is already Won"
Among others who spoke today were
Mrs. Lillian Coffin, Mrs. B. Sturtevant
Peet Mrs. May NJ. Whitman, Mrs.
Elizabeth Gerberding, Mrs. Renowden
