 You must not interpret this as an indi- cation that my interest in the cause of woman suffrage has in any way les sened," she said to reporters who she summoned to her office in the MetropolI- tan tower. New York. ''The work is se- cure, the political expression of my sex is to me the vital issue of the day. and our cause must always be the greatest in- terest I have to strive for.
 "In considering the plans for our so- cietys propaganda in the. coming months, however. find that it will be absolutely necessary for the president to do great deal of additional work in this office be- sides much travelling and speechmaking in outside districts. My plans for the i'm
 mediate future are so uncertain that 1t Is not possible for me to ocrr~"it r'-'~~'r to the work that should be done, and I feel that it is only fair to this organlza- ton that I should resign from the pres idency.
