MUST FACE QUESTION
OF WOMAN'S SUFFRAGE

Chicago. Juno 13-Tho General Fed
Grafton OF Women's Clubs tomorrow
for tho first timo is expected to face
the question of womans suffrage for
adoption or rejection.
There Is little opposition to the
adoption OF a resolution approving the
principles OF equal suffrage, but the
battle Will como when an effort Is
made to have tho federation mako the
fight to obtain the ballot for women
a part of the federation's propaganda.
The subject hitherto has died In COM
mittce. because tho fcderntion's con-
stitution prohibits consideration OF re-
ligion and politics.
In tho numerous conferences OF this
convention. however, tho great strides
made b. suTragists In recent years
were recognized. and II was agreed
th;tt enlightenment on the subject
might como properly under tho head
ing or education.
1t Is further rule that tho resolu-
tions shall deal only with those sub
lects which have been discussed on tho
floor.
For this reason. Miss Helen Boswell,
or New York. referred in the briefest
possible manner to the subjcct at the
educational conference to-day AL
though she scarcely moro than mem
TONED It's existence, 1t was suflcient to
form the entering wedge
IL Is believed tho resolutions COM
mittee Tomorrow will report In favor
or the principle OF equal suffrage. This.
IL liz said. Will bring the fight to the
Moor. Delegates to-day held three ses-
sions. To-nigh, there was mn adj
uress by Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait, of
