WASHINGTON TIMES BUREAU,
ANACOSTIA. ID. c.. MARCH I


Votes for Women won the verdict
of the judges who listened to the debate
il. the Congress Heights Methodist
Episcopal Church last night between
Anacos;ia and Congress Heights
| through representatives of the Mems
Clubs of the two churches. The Ana
costa Gebaters supported the affirma-
tive side of the question and the judges
declared them to be the winners.
Charles Marshall and Frank Dony were
the young men delegated by the
Brotherhood of the Anacostia Methodist
Episcopal Church to uphold the cause
of wcman's suffrage, and Andrew r.
Mcnamara and John MCGEE took the op-

Club. Unusual interest was shown
among the men OF the two suburbs
over the debate and the meeting place
v as filled to its capacity
Marshall argued from the standpoint
OF the woman who is seeking the ballot.
He told the mem that women are Their
equals mentally and their superiors
morally.
MCGEE. who followed, quoted statistics
to indicate that where women have been
granted suffrage in the United States
they have failed to improve working
conditions.
Dony then said women should have
the ballot because of the elevating in
ffuences they then would exert in the
political field.
McNarama drew a picture of the
woman as mother in the home, her
proper sphere, he declared.
Bencni Milstead, Harry Wineland,
and Herbert King were the judges. o.
A. Emsnons presided.
George Thompson, six years old, was
bitten in the abdomen by a dog last
night while at play in front Of his
home, 1872 w street He was taken to
