Bancroft Holds the Proposed Com
stitutional Amendment in
Glass by Itself.

Madison.-Attorney General Ban
croft rules that the constitutional

frage to women must go to vote

tutional amendments shall be sub
mitted on separate ballots and the
attorney general holds that this gem
eral law applies to the equal suf-
frage amendment Chapter 665

ments which must be voted on in
November and states expressly that
these amendments shall be placed on
the general ballot.
