women TO VOTE
FOR PRESIDENT?
IT'S BRYAN PLAN

WASHINGTON. Dec. i0.-Shall
women be permitted to participate
in the new presidential primaries
advocated by President Wilson In
his message, There is nothing In
the Constitution to prevent.
This important fact is brought to
public attention by Congressman
J. w. Bryan Of Washington. who
recommends that the new primary
law permit women To help nom.
mate the president OF the United
States.
This can be done by act OF con.
gross as we'll in. New York. which
has no woman suffrage, as In Cal.
ifornia. where women have the full
franchise. Primary elections are
not constitutional elections. Any
regulations can be made for them
by congress-. and there is every
reason why the women should par
tlcipate in the nomination OF presl.
Dental candidates.
This will certainly appeal 10
President Wilson and Secretary
Bryan, who are known To cherish
a deep and abiding desire for votes
for women, but who have so far
hesitated to proclaim their feelings
openly.
