Gus in favor of another immediate
attempt to gain the ballot for women
and the right Of representation"
Committees will be appointed during
the convention to determine upon de-
tails.
Mrs. Arthur submitted her resigna-
tion formally today. She has been
connected with the organization for
twenty years, has been its president
since 1906, and has led the two state
wide campaigns for the ballot. Mrs.
Blair Of Hillsdale. Mrs. Katherine
