STRIKE OF WOMEN TO

Mrs. Gilman Tells Suffragists
the Mexican Affair Is All
SchOolboy Nonsense.

Two suffrage leaders agreed yesterday
without consultation that a housewives

women to deal with the war situation.
"It 10 the most absurd and disgraceful

did they expect the Mexicans to DO when
they landed American marines? And II

Mrs. Charlotte Perkins Gilman said
substantially the same thing in the course

masculine civilization on business, gov
eminent and warfare.
Tho only way the women can stop

woman In the country would follow that
policy we should have peace in hurry.
The trouble is we have no solidarity.
IT am not saying there il never time
when II Ia necessary to fight Women
can fight as well as men. Many OF them
were in the civil war. and there are
tribes In Africa where the women have
been trained to fight and are ferocious
and unmanaGeable.

As long az the decision lies with them
we shall have a world at war"
II thought you said that the women In
Africa were ferocious." objected ono au-

II did say that women fought fercely.
Men have developed codes Of warfare
through the ages-things they must not
do. But women come to warfare. II they
must night to protect their young. as un.
trained savages. with no Marquis OF
