LONDON. March ia world con-
quest by imperial Germany and a
"Germanixation" Of women would
deal n heavy blow at civilization.
Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst. English
militant suffragette leader, said In
an interview with tho United Press
to-day.
Mrs. Pankhurst was discussing with
mo the appeal OF President Runelman
Of the Board OF Trade, for organixa-
ton Of English women to aid In tho
war. The milltants. she said. well
coined the chance to show that women
may be made an important asset.
But what In the position Of the
German women In tho war;" asked.
"It would be a terrible disaster II
the Germans conquered the world"
was her decisive response. The Cor
mans, I must admit, take good care
of their women. But they regard
them as-I don't like TO use the
word-breeders They consider them
solely as a means of maintaining the
race.
"On the other hand, a conquest OF
Germany by tho allies will mean not
only tho liberation Of civilization. but
the liberation Of German mon ant
women from German ideas"
was about to put another ques
ton when Mrs. Pankhurst inte;'
"Xnd what abou. tho violation %
women by the Germans?" she asks
I suggested that probably ther'
were bad men In every army.
''But there are the most bad mel
in tho army which consumes tn
most alcohol" she replied. II DON

she said. For centuries the vast In

has been q waste product. but th'

All the money they made was kept In
the form Of personal property. They
had no children. When he died only
