RESPONSE TO SUFFRAGISTS.
Mrs. A. M. Dodge Argues Against
Votes for Women.

Mrs. Arthur NJ Dodge OF New York,
president of the National Association OPP
posed to Woman Suffrage, yesterday IS
sued statement in which she blamed
society women for increasingly lax
morals: said that woman suffrage is use
less because reform should begin in the
home and criticised senators and repre-
sentatives who spoke in favor Of votes
for women before the Senate suffrage
committee Monday.
Mrs Dodge declared that it is a notice
able thing that some women who ought to
assist In strengthening public opinion
against lax morals dress and behave in a
way to encourage others to be immoral.
Mothers have lost their sense of respon-
sibility for their children. and children
have lost their sense of obedience to their
parents, Mrs Dodge continued. This
shows conclusively, she said that reform
should begin at home. and that instead of
working for the ballot women should
seek to strengthen home ties.
