STRANGE GREETING
FOR A MILITANT
Leaders ! Don't Know How to
Receive Mrs. PankhurSt.
HOW Her VISIT IS REGARDED

Dr.. Anna Howard Shaw, American
Sutfragist, Does Not Think That
English Leader Should Be Entertain
ed, as Few Courtesies Were Shown
Americans While Abroad.
New York. - Will Mrs. Emmeline
Pankhurst be allowed by the immigra-
ton authorities to land in this coun-
try?
Most of the suffragette leaders say
they honor Mrs. Pankhurst as wom-
an. but that they don't approve of her
methods. Her visit is going to put
them in an awkward position. If they
don't pay any attention to her they
will be accused of a slight to wom-
an who has spent her life working
for 1.-The cause" If they do show her
attention their action may be interpret
ed as an approval of militant methods.
This is the, choice of evils which
Mrs. Pankhurst's visit has forced upon
the American women. and a good
many of them are resenting it. The
Woman's Political union has taken
the bull by the horns and cabled to
the prospective visitor an invitation
to public dinner. The invitation has
been accepted. But never was hospi-
tally preceded and accompanied by so
much hostility.
A solution is to follow Mrs Pank-
bursts own example and leave her
alone. Neither she nor her organiza-
ton ever gave dinner to a visiting
American suffragist in England. She
has had plenty of opportunities too
