OMAHA, Oct 30.-Equal suffrage
advocates did not get much comfort
from the platform adopted today at
the national w. C. T. U. convention.
This is how the question was dis
posed of:
1--WE affirm that the ballot may
be an incentive to good citizenship
We believe that the qualifications
for suffrage should be based upon
intelligence, not upon sex or any
other insurmountable obstacles"
There was no question as to the
conventions stand on total abstin-
ence, however. A resolution de-
clared strongly against a compro-
mise with moderate drinking. The
absolute stunning of liquor was ad-
vocated.
