San Francisco, July 2.-Women suf-
frage was the vital topic before the
delegates to the eleventh biennial con-
vention of the General Federation Of
Women's clubs here today With but
little business to come before the
convention, interest centered about
Mrs. Philip Carpenter Of New York
and Mrs. Percy st. Pennybacker of
Texas, the two candidates for fed
GRAFTON president, whose battle of bal
lots will be elected The club women
from states which heve equal suf-
frage led by California, are making
a determined fight to place the fed
GRAFTON on record as in favor Of votes
for women, and it is planned to make
the election Of president depend upon
this issue.
Both candidates issued a statement
fayorng suffrage, but the statements
were guarded and cautious, and Mrs
Pennybacker declared that while ia
yoring the ballot for women, she did
not think it wise to make suffrage an
issue in this convention, because the
federation is composed of women from
all parts of the country, Of all reli-
gious creeds and all political affilla-
tions,
