prison at hard labor was the punishment
imposed on six militant suiIragsts who
smashed all the windows ON the street
Aoor of Home Secretary McKenna's
home, in Downing street
Before dawn today the women, armed
with longhandled hammers, raided the
MoKenna house and shattered the panes
of every window they could reach. They
made no attempt to run away and
calmly submitted to arrest at the hands
OF policemen who arrived Immediately,
attracted by the sound of the breaking
glass. The six were sent to police. sta
tion and thence to police court, receiving
one Of the quickest trials that has mark
ed the governments efforts to check the
sulrragists' campaign OF militancy.
The women for months have tried TO
strike some sort of a blow at Reginald
AlcKenna, home secretary, originator of
the "cat and mouse" act. whom the
lmilitants hold, more than any other
cabinet minister, to be responsible for
their wrongs.
The Womans Social and Political
Union speakers have taken every occa-
sion to taunt AIcNenna with "torturing
women They charged 10 him the prac-
tice Of forcibly feeding sufiragists.
When the government initiated the
"cat and mouse act" by which women
were allowed TO starve themselves to
weakness and given their liberty to be
lrearested when their health was re-
stored, the nilitants denounced the act
ar worse than forciOle feeding. They
even accused Mckenna of the "slow muir
der of Mrs. Pankhurst.
