cept that il would be experimental Iegis-
lation, always dangerous to any nation
lie said he is not a firm believer in uni

women as one Of the greatest obstacles in
their fight for the ballot. Woman" he
continued, is supposed TO stand for peace,

women who retained the bitterness years
after the men had practically forgotten
it He declared that woman, generally
speaking, have no responsibility of the
kind that should rest upon the shoulders
of those entitled to vote
