MANY ABSENT DURING
 DEBATE ON SUFFRAGE.
Lack of Quorum Prevents Vote on
 Amendment

Washington, March 5-Debate on woman suffrage continued in the sen ate today without the expected final vote on the proposed constitutional amendment being reached Late in the day many senators were missing from hteir seats, and lack of a. quorum pre- vented vote on an amendment to the pending resolutions submitted by Sen ator Vardanan.
 "Our women," the Mississippi sen ator declared, will not go to the polls to vote in competition wit ha race con- genitally eternal1y, racfally, unalter- ably unfit to perform the supreme function of citizenship"
 He said he would support the reso- lution Of congress repealed the 18th amendment and modified the 14th amendment, and to this end he offered his amendment to the resolution. As amended the resolution would provide for woman suffrage in all the state. but in all other respects the right of citizens to vote would be left to the states in which they reside.
 Senator PomeFene of Ohio told the senate that although he had voted for woman suffrage in his state, he was opposed to a federal constitutional amendment that would force equal suffrage on states opposed te 1t. The fact that only two per cent. of the women had exercised the school fran chise in Ohio, he added, was evidence that they did net want the ballot in his state.
