Congress Asked to
Let Various States
Vote on Suffrage

WASHINGTON, March 3.-Propos-
ing that the Democrats adopt con-
stitutional amendment which would
give to the people of every State, upon
petition of certain percentage of
their voters, the right to decide
whether women OF that State should
have the ballot, Mrs. Antoinette Funk,
of Chicago, led the woman suffrage
forces at the hearing of the House
Judiciary Committee on the proposed
amendment granting the ballot 20
women. Mrs. Funk spoke for the Ma
tional American Woman Suffrage AS
ISOLATION.
Il know pretty much whether you
are going to enfranchise us or not,
she said, and you know that l know
that the majority party in Congress
at present is pretty much committed
to the States rights doctrine, but
this plan which we propose simply
puts 1t up to the several States to
answer the suffrage question for
themselves.
What it would accomplish would
be to eliminate great barriers now
standing between the people and their
own rights to vote upon the question"

WAY CLEARED TO
SENTENCE FRANK

The way was paved Tuesday for
the resentencing of Leo NJ. Frank in
Judge Hills court, and the next move
on the part OF the defense, when the
remittitur was received from the SUI
preme Court by the Clerk of the SUI
perior Court. leaving it optional with
Solicitor Hugh Dorsey as to when he
should apply for the announcement
of sentence for the second time upon
the prisoner.
The Solicitor said ne would move
for the resentencing Tuesday after
noon or Wednesday.
Much conjecture was caused by the
absence from town of both Rosser and
Herbert j. Haas While denial was
made that either Of them was in New
York on any mission connected with
the Frank case, the rumor was given
circulation that they proposed for one
thing to interview William S. Osburn,
one OF the States handwriting ex-
perts who never was called as wilt
ness.
Solicitor Dorsey said Tuesday that
Osburn could say only that the notes
were in the handwriting Of Jim Con-
ley. a fact admitted by Conley and
everyone else.
The defense continued OF work on
the evidence to be SUBMITTED in the eN-
traordinary motion for a new trial

excellent spirits after long talk with
