IOWA WOMEN BEGIN FIGHT
FOR EQUAL SUFFRAGE

CEDAR RAPIDS, Ia, May 90
The first real fight in Iowa to secure
the franchise for women was started
today when the State Federation Of
Women's clubs met here in biennial
convention. More than 1000 club wo-
men from Iowa cities and towns are
attending the three days sessions. Two
years ago the suffrage question was
discussed and after strong opposi-
ton failed to get the endorsement Of
the federation. Since that time state
and national workers for suffrage
have carried on an active campaign
and it was generally admitted that
before the present convention is over
the federation will have put itself on
record not only in favor Of votes for
women, but also will pledge itself to
actively work for it,
