Three Carloads Go to Plead
Against a Suffrage
Committee.
WILSON'S ATTITUDE
GIVES PLEASURE
CONGRESSES Plan Is Unconstitu-
tional, Says Mrs. John A.
Church, Departing.

Three carloads of ANTS" brave with
rosecolored ribbons and loaded with argu-
ments. departed Yesterday noon for Wash
ington where they will endcavOr to per-
suadc Congress that it doesn't want a
committee on woman suffrage in the
House The party included representatives
Of the National Association Opposed TO
Woman Suffrage the New York State and
the Now Jersey associations. They were
particularly happy in the hour of depart
IRE because OF reports that President
Wilson had turned down the suffragists'
plea for y recommendation in his message
To Congress.
''Iie is wise man. al right" said Miss
Marjorie Dorman. "FIe knows that II he
once got into this controversy his life
world he q burden 10 him"
The "antis" expected to spend most of
their strength arguing not against votes
for women. but the iradyisability OF haV-
ing special committee to consider it.
Mrs. John A Church was prepared 70
say it was unconstitutional to nave such
a committee TO interference with state gov
crnments. II didn't feaze her any to be
reminded that the federal government had
recently passed bill for the direct cleo
ton of United States Senators.
You just get the Constitution ~ the

with a piece OF an existing committee in

Judge Henry and Representative Hard

the delegation. 1t would have plenty
of time to consider suffrage II might

Want Entire Committee for Cause"
DR. Shaw said swectly and graciously
that that seemed very nice. and II the
gentlemen would give her party a bri'i
time to consult after the hearing she
would give them an answer almost inn
mediately. Then she went on calling her
speakers. but while they spoke sufragists
from the crowded room were quietly
slipping out and getting Information
about the Elections Committee. and the
report they inconspicuously handed TO Or.
Shaw caused her TO inform Judge Henry
that she had learned that the committee
of which he offered the suffra lists "a share
had a strenuous programme alreauy laid
out for IL by President Wilso.. and
really she felt that the freedom o. one
half the people was important cnou-h TO
deserve a committee 10 itself.
Or. Shaws speakers were Miss Jane
Adams. Mrs Carrie Chapman Catt. Mrs
Helen Gardiner, Of Washington. Mrs.
