This identical question has been
passed upon by the courts in numer-

is a citizen of the United States.

COMPLETE TEXT
OF The OPINION
Statement of Attorney General
P. ]. Lucey Relative to
Alien Voting.
PROVISIONS OF NEW LAW
Foreign Born Women, Married to
Naturalized Citizens, Have the
Right of Ballot.

Inc recent opinion OF Attorney
General P. ]. Lucey relative to the
right of foreign born women to vote
at the approaching city election, Aug.
26 excited so much interest that the
text of the entire statement written
to Mayor Harry NJ. Schriver is print
ed herewith:
l have your favor of the 18th inst,
in which you state, in substance, that
the city of Rock Island is to hold a
special election in the near future,
and you are DESTROYS of knowing
whether or not, under the woman's
suffrage act, foreign born woman,
married to citizen, or an unmarried
foreign born woman, or an unmarried
woman whose father became natural
| lied after She reached her majority,
can exercise the right of franchise.
The matter submitted by you in
wolves three distinct propositions.
First-Does a foreign born woman
who marries a citizen of the United
States, by such act of marriage, be-
come naturalized.
| Second-Does an unmarried foreign
| born woman whose father became nat
uralized after she arrived at her ma
! jority, by such act of naturalization
on the part of her father, also become
naturalir ed.
Third-Does an unmarried woman
born in the United States, whose
father became naturalized after she
reached her majority, by such act OF
naturalization, upon the part of heI
! father, also become naturaliZed.
Naturalization merely confers upon
the person naturalized certain civil
rights, and it is an act conferred by
virtue of the laws of the United
States, whereas the right to vote is
separate and distinct from the rights
of. citizenship and such right to vote
is conferred not by the laws of the
United States, but by the laws of the
state.
The socalled woman's suffrage act
confers upon women the right to vote
for certain officers, but, OF course, il
order to do so, they must possess Ger
tain qualifications; among others
they must be citizens.
The question Of whether the act O.
foreign born woman marrying a citi
zen of the United States makes her {
citizen or not, has been before, no
only the supreme court of this state
but also before the supreme court o
the United States.

of the United States provides, with
reference to the citizenship of married
women, as follows:
ANY woman who is now or may
hereafter be married to citizen of
the United States, and who might her.
self be lawfully naturalized, shall be
deemed a citizen"
COURTS CONSTRUCTION.
The supreme court of the state of
Illinois in constituting this section in
the case of Dorsey V. Brigham, nth
Illinois, at page 256, said:
THE proper construction of said
section 1894 of the Revised Statutes
of the United States is, every woman
who might be lawfully naturalized
by judicial tribunal, who lives in
state Of marriage with a husband
who is a citizen, becomes herself a
citizen by force of the existence of the
marriage relation. 1t, there
fore, would seem clear each woman
voter in question who sustained the
| relation of wife to a citizen of the
United States became also a citizen
| of the United States"
In the case of Kelly V. Owen, Wall.
| GA United States Rep. p. 1881, the
| court, in discussing the above sec
! ton of the Revised Statutes, said:
"As we construe this act, it confers
the privileges of citizenship upon
women married to citizens of the
! United States, if they are of the class
of persons for whose naturalization
the previous acts of congress provide,
The terms married. or who shall be
married. do not refer, in our judg,
ment, to the time when the ceremony
of marriage is celebrated, but to a
state of marriage. They mean that
whenever a woman, who under pre-
vious acts might be naturalized, is in
a state of marriage to citizen, wheth
er his citizenship existed at the pass
! age Of the act or subsequently, or be
fore or after the marriage, she be
comes, by that fact, citizen also
His citizenship, whenever it exists
confers, under the act, citizenship
upon her. The construction which
would restrict the act to womeI
whose husbands, at the time of mar
riage, are citizens, would exclude fal
the greater number, for whose bene
fit, as we think, the act was intended
Its object, in our opinion, was to al
low her citizenship to follow that o
her husband, without the necessit.
of any application for naturalization
on her part; and, if this was the OBJ
ject, there is no reason for the re
striction suggested"
MARRIAGE MAKES CITIZEN.
1t is clear, from the above authori
ties referred to, that foreign borI
woman who marries a citizen of thu
United States, whether such either
be natural born or naturaliZed, b!
such act of marriage, become a Cit
zen of the United States.
AS to the second question, an IN
married foreign born woman who's
father did not become naturalized I'm
til after she arrived at her majority
would not, by such act of naturaliza
! ton upon the part of her father, be
come a citizen of the United States
j, which is as follows:

States and not subject to any foreigl

CLUbNOMEN DIVIDED ON
PLAN To BAN TELEPHONE
CHATS |NEvEN|NCHOUR{

Mrs. w e. Price Smith, author OF
the latest sensation in woman's club
circles curfew on Atlanta wom-
ems telephone conversations-Fr
explained the object of her plan at
her home, No. 10 Peachtree place.
Mrs. Price Smith who Is one of
the most prominent clubwomen of the
city, declared that she had been fairly
oombarded by questions concerning
the movement since It's publication
by The Georgian Thursday. She said
that all of the half-hundred women
with whom she had discussed the
matter were in favor OF 1t. She pre-
dicted that within six months prac-
tically every clupwoman in the city
would inaugurate the curfew custom
in her home.
The custom abolishes the use of the
telephone by women after D. m.
unless It is imperative. 1t DEGREES
that women shall carry on their tel
ephone conversations during the day
only. that they may devote their I'M
interrupted time to their husbands
and families during the evenings.
Or course" said Mrs Price Smith,
1T woman IL taking over the tele-
phone when the clock strikes s. che
could finish her conversation. How
ever, even then, it should be cut as
short as possible.
All Not in Favor of Plan,
Then, too, II occasion arises when
a telephone call is imperative, the
custom would not hold My motion
aims only at the abolition OF social
conversations during the evening
hours"
That the proposition will be fotly
contested by some Atlanta women
however, was presaged by interviews
obtained Friday.
Women are seldom home during
the day" declared Mrs. James L. Dick
ey, a member OF the executive board
of the Home for lncura bles. There
fore they virtually would be isolated
from each other II telephone CONVEX
sations were barred during the even
ings when they generally are at
home"
In line with this same objection was
that offered by Mrs William Glare
Spiker, president of the Atlanta Cer-
ter Of the Drama League.
There are 500 members Of the
