lean women have been subjected to this
and. while it has not been considered
matter warranting interference by the
United States government it has created
strong indignation against English
methods, especially noted among the men
and women of the south.
So, while the conservative American
woman feels a sense of horror against
the revolutionary acts of the English
suffra getteS and armits them to he the
cause of the defeat in Michigan. thou
sands of others see in them the strongest
hope for the future.
When women are willing to die for a
cause YOU know it Is bound to win in the
end, said a southern woman at tea
in Washington recently. And no mat
ter how much you regret their mistaken
zeal, you have to admire their courage"
The American suffragist feels sure of
ultimate victory without any danger Of
being forced to militancy. The much
regretted disorder in the suffrage parade
| in Washington on the Sd Of March. due
partially to the negligence of the police
officers, drew such a storm of protest
from many of the most distinguished men
of the nation that even the suffragists
who were annoyed during the parade now
agree that it helped them by proving the
chivalry of the majority of American
men. incidentally it also brought many
new names to the membership rolls and
hundreds of dollars in contributions. The

New Jersey, New York and Iowa a reso-
luton to submit the question to the voters
has passed one house and in several other

Proceeds of Policies Will Not

An explanation that the pending in

not propose to lay a burden upon the
proceeds of life insurance policies PAID
upon the death of the insured was made
yesterday by Representative Cordell Hull
of Tennessee. democratic member of the
ways and means committee. who wrote
the income tax paragraphs. In his state
ment Mr. Hull declares that life insur-
ance companies are disappearing the
facts in thousands of circulars sent out
to poicyholders-
Mr. Hull says the government proposes
to tax the large earnings OF insurance
companies and does not propose to touch
the premiums or policies. The statement
is as follows:
The pending income tax bill does not
i'm any sense propose TO pace this tax
upon the proceeds OF life insurance poll
cies paid on the death of the insured nor
upon the return Of the principal invested
in life insurance in any manner during
the life Of the person making the invest
