an insidious and uncomplimen-

lect their civic duty, principally
by failing to vote.
The htghbrows profess them

yet the answer is simple enough.
II is: Give women the ballot.
Not that they have any su-
perior civic wisdom that is great
er than their husbands, or faith
ers', or brothers Simply that
they have more civic conscience,
and that when women have Z

vote themselves but they will see
