Yet you must stand by and see the

no longer patiently and inactively, but

You are half the human race, but

'Mr.U Roosevelt did not include the
suffrage plank in the Bull Moose plat
form because he thought it right or
that you should be mans equal, but
because in six different states women
will vote in the National election this
fall and he needs their votes.
The Socialist party stands. for and
indorses equal and unrestricted suf-
frage for all, and has pledged itself
to wage an active campaign in that
direction.
We know that the ballot for women
will not mean Socialism. We know
that the capitalist class will use every
means in it's power to get the women
to help perpetuate the present sys-
TEN, and that their press, pulpit and
platforms will be used as never be-
fore to influence them to vote in their
favor.
Nevertheless, we also know that the
time is almost here, when the respon-
sible, thinking woman will not be con-
tent with what the old parties have to
offer. Through our platform and
press we will be able to educate them
to such an intelligent understanding
Of our principles and program, that
they will refuse to vote for the con-
tinuation of the present system which
is directly opposed to the very ideals
of womankind. !.

After the plunge, however, it is a
different proposition. These men
voice their surprise at the manner in
which the women take up the work of
the Socialist party organization. They
confess that they neevr before dreamt
that such could have been the case
They wonder that they never had sus-
picioned it before. They are glad
that they have been awakened.
Without exception those Socialist
organizations where have found this

today active and fighting. From this
and from other various observations,
draw the conclusion that immediate

/ WOMEN ARE WORKERS
(Ry J. l. EnsdahI.)

The big reason for the existence of
the Socialist party is to have an or
ganization to do the political work of
the Socialist movement.
In order to do this workers are
needed. Every obstacle, therefore,
that stands in the way of securing
workers in this great cause should be
brushed aside.
There is no denying the fact that
the men in the Socialist party have
been little timid in Witnessing the
influx of women inc the Socialist par
.tv. The men may charge it to natural
timidity. Yet there are many hard
working Socialist women who can to-
day bear witness to that fact.
In many places where have been,
accompanying Socialist Vice Presiden-
tial Candidate Emil Sefdel on his tour
of the. nation, have found that it is
like taking cold plunge for many Of
the men to get to work side by side
with Socialist women in the cause that
lead to the emancipa tion Of die work
ing class.

Women met at Sofia the other day
