VIEWS PRESENT WAR
AS WOMAN'S CHANCE
Mrs. Pcthick Lawrence Here to
Rouse American Sisters to
Their Duty.

Another English woman sufrragist who
has come 10 America to speak on the
relation OF women to war is Mrs. Pethick
Lawrence. who arrived yesterday on the
Atlantic Transport liner Minnehaha and
who will speak at Carnegie Hall on
Friday.
The fact that Miss Christabel Pank-
hurst and Mrs. Lawrence arrived within
10 short time Of one another is purely
accidental At least, so Il is asserted by
each OF them.
Miss Pankhurst and do not impnge
upon one another in the least" said Mrs.
Lawrence at the Cosmopolitan Club yes
terday, for the reason that we do not
treat OF the same subject in the same
way. / do not come to crticse any
Government nor TO enlist sympathy for
any nation, but to awaken American
women to knowledge Of their tre-
mendous possibilities and opportunities in
the face Of this great crisis,
I'VE have come to recognize woman
suffrage now as something more than a
political question. 1t Is become a spiritual
question. The brotherhood of man is
merely a figure OF speech compared 10 the
sstcyhood Of women, for while men have
many interests. many aims and many
passions. we have but one, the creation
and the upbr!nglng OF the human race, l
believe that war will not be abolished
until the women have n controlling voice
In the machinery OF the nations. for
femin!sm and mllitarism cannot flourish
IN the same soil.
"You may Say that the destruction NJ
property amounts to the same thing as
war. II In there that ! differ from Mrs
Pankhurst. do not believe In arson. and
y was for this reason that two years ago I
separated from Mrs Pankhurst's organi-
cation.
There Ia no question about Mrs Law
rences past miltanoy. as she has been In
prison six times and shows with glee the
prison badge she received for hunger
strikes and forcible feeding
II want TO make the American women
understand the Importance of their posi-
ton" she said, "and OF their influence, We
are standing at the beginning OF great
changes. This Is a terrible dog fight that
is going on over there Nobody knows
why they are fighting or what they
are fighting for. II is for the women
TO say whether this shall be tho last
war or only tho beginning OF other
wars. They say that women would make
mess OF statecraft. We could not
have made n greater mess than Is being
carried on now all over Europe"
Mrs. Lawrence IL one OF tho managers
OF the Womon's Emergency Corps In Lon
don OF which the Duchess OF Marlborough
ls treasurer and which has been so influ-
entail IN organizing relief work The
length Of her stay In America has moi
been fixed 81 cannot stay long she
said. "for there Is too much 20 be done
In England"

WARNING COUPLE WRONG.
Hut Court Grants separation 10 Mrs
sutton and $4,000 Year.

Supreme Court Justice Maddox in
Brooklyn yesterday granted Mrs. Louise
VI. Sutton n separation from her husband,
Francis NJ. Sutton, and $4,000 a year ali
mony. At the close OF the trial on Tues
day last Justice Maddox reserved decision
so as TO give the couple an opportunity
to affect reconciliation. which he
strongly urged on them. but their inter-
views only resulted in further disagree
ment.
Mrs. Sutton gets the custody OF her
daughter, Dorothy. n student nj Vassar.
and the son. Francis NJ, Jr., a student
at Polytechnic Preparatory School, Is put
in the care of the father. Tho other son.
Sherwood. Princeton student, is of age.
Justice Maddox said that both husband
and wife have shown unkindness and that
both were wrong all through the matter.
He also criticised the dragging OF the
name OF Mrs. Sutton's brother -ln-law,
Justice Russell benedict. into the case.
