tween suffragists and anti-suffra sis.s.
1t was a contest between s%uftragists
and s~uffragists. One section of the
suffragists wanted the federation to
go on record as indorsing political
equality. the other section opposed
this on the ground that the previous
policy of the federation has been UNI
alterably in avo of indorsing only
those movements which are unani-
mously supported by the clubs. The
majority of the federation are suf-
fragists: but the general officers and
the majority Of the delegates were
unwilling to create a precedent which
might be used later in favor of other
questions.
In the place Of a suffrage resolu-
ton. a resolution was carried that
used as club programs. The whole
tendency of the club movement is to
prepare women for citizenship. The
retiring president. Mrs. Moore, in d
recent letter addressed to all the
