The vast majority OF men who
voted for suffrage last November did

The women who want their hus-
bands 10 vote for suffrage are OF
various types" continued MIR. Barnes.
There Is no Pankhurst. Milholland

Mrs. Elizabeth Schauss, OF Toledo
!. in suffrage headquarters, Saturday,
commented on the effort 10 harm the
slffragist cause by citing the actions
of the militant body In England
The sufrragsts who are not mill

said. But IL is always the squalling
baby that gets the most attention
The militant snffragists are really the
Tory class. They are not in favor or

have a property qualification"
