Denomination" of women would
deal heavy blow at civilization. Mrs.
Emmeline Pankhurst, English mill.
tant suffragette leader, declared in an
interview with the United Press to-
day.
Mrs Pankhurst was discussing with
me the appeal OF President Runelman,
OF the Board of Trade. for organiza-
ton of English women to aid in the
war. The militants, she said, well
coined the chance to show that women
may be made an important asset.
But what is the position of the Ger
man women in the WARP" I asked.
"It would be n terrible disaster IL
the Germans conquered the world
was her decisive response. "The
Germans. + must admit take good
care of their women. But they con-
slider them solely as a means of main
tanning the race. On the other hand,
a conquest of Germany by the allies,
will mean not only the liberation Of
civilization, but the liberation OF Ger
man men and women from German
ideas"
There is no necessity, nor Will
there be any. for English women ac-
tually TO take up arms, Mrs. Pank-
hurst said with a smile. but it is the
duty of English women to perform
the normal work of the nation while

W. H. BAILEY ASSISTS MOTHER.

the men are at the front, if they are

"The suffragettes always have
wanted the government to regard
English women as a reserve force"
she said. For centuries the vast
intelligence and capability of women
has been a waste product. but this
war has demonstrated that women
may be an asset.
"Two-thirds of the men in the new
Kitchener army are married. British
women who have control over men
are insisting that they join the Brit
ish forces. It's the bachelors who
arc holding back. They lack the wo-
mans influence.
"It is our women who have been
the greatest sufferers economically
from this war-especially the women
of education. A great many men who
ought TO be at the front are filling
places these women could hll But
nevertheless our men generally are
doing nobly. In your own Civil War
you know. the United States was
forced to adopt conscription, but so
far that has been unnecessary here.
I'VE suffragettes love our country
just as all the women of England do.
We could have gone TO America
where women are getting the vote,
or to some English colony, but we
remain in England because of our
love for our country We feel that a
German victory would set back the
feminine movement indefinitely, and
we know that the women Of England
can be converted into a tremendous

who fail as reputable private prac-

only among the animals, but among
human beings. Hoof and mouth ex-

quacks and the clergy.

hopeless body should be freed from

to rise above superstition, recognize

What are the duties of a mayor,
to keep peace in the city or to have
people slugged and murdered?
The way it looks, this city has no
government. 1t is controlled by the
clothing bosses assn and other
trusts. Where is Mr.. Thompson,
whom the people elected to the
mayors office to protect the people
and the peoples interests? 1t is true
that he protects the people, but a
few who are not worthy to be called
by that name. The full dinner pail is
still empty and 1 wonder if it will
ever fill up while Mr.. Thompson is in
the Office? There are hundreds of
facts to show that the police with the
sluggers, who are supposed to be spe-
cial police, are doing whatever they
want to or whatever the clothing
bosses want to do with the people.
Yes, this clothing, strike boosts
