URGES AFFILIATED
COLLEGE FOR WOMEN

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL
NEWARK, Del, Feb. 4--Undcr the
auspices Of the Newark Grange, an
open meeting was held in the Della
ware College Oratory last night for
the purpose of discussing Womans
Suffrage The Rev George Edward
Reed, pastor of Grace NJ. g. Church.
Wilmington, was the principal speak
er. At the conclusion Of DR.. Reeds
address, remarks were also made by
Mrs Martha $. Cranston, OF Newport
president of the Equal Suffrage So
ciety Several excellent vocal and
instrumental musical selections We're
given by local talent The grange will
take a vote on the question at the next
meeting and il is generally believed
that suffrage will be endorsed by a
large vote.
DR. Reed said he hoped the Lcgis-
lature now in session would pass the
bill providing for an affiliated college
for women at Newark, and put Della
ware whore it deserves to be and
should be, one of the Progressive
States of the Union 81 get tired
said Dr. Reed, "of hearing the old
story Of the backwardsness Of Della
ware, as it is my opinion that there
are more brains in Delaware to the
square inch and the square foot than
any other State"
DR.. Reed next took up the bin in
troduced in the Senate by Senator
Reinhardi, providing for an amend
ment to the Constitution giving wo-
men the right. to vote in Delaware
as is now enjoyed by men. He said
"If this amendment does not prevail
Il viii simply be a postponement OF
the inevitable, for these women viii
be there again and Will eventually
win. The men at Dover will be in
hot water for the next 25 years il they
do not grant this amendment The wo-
men Will get il, for when they gel
behind a great movement they always
carry it to a triumphant victory"
The speaker stated that nine States
now have the full suffrage and mum
her of others partial suffrage. He haC
never heard successful argument
against it and even where there is bu
partial suffrage there has never beer
a movement to take il away, which Is
suficint evidence of its success. On'
argument that is made against suf
frage, DR. Reed said is that womel
have no right in politics and many
look on politics as a nasty thing Poll
ties is the science Of government ans
should be the cleanest thing OF the ma
tion.
IN speaking of the actions of th'
suffragettes in England IN rioting ant
breaking windows, DR.. Reed said
"Women who would resort to that il
this country should be tabooed iron

needed here. but the conditions ar
