both man ona u-or,oon
The decision fthe women, it is
said, was the result of stormy ses-
sion in which the vote was close Arch
bishop Messmer's decree that woman
suffrage must not be discussed in the
meetings is said to be the chief reason
for the dissension in the movement of
the women. A majority of the dele
gates to the meeting are reported to
have been in favor of the women suf-
frage and did not look kindly upon the
dictation of Archbishop Messmer that
suffrage be excluded from the league
debate.
