SEES VICTORY FOR SUFFRAGE.
Dr. shaw Expects 1918 to Hiring
Great Extension of BRIIot.

Dr. Anna Howard Shaw. president OF
the National American Woman Suffrage
Association, when asked what she believed
the new year would bring to suffrage, was
very optimistic
Eastward the tide OF suffrage takes
lis way in this new year she said In
New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and
Massachusetts campaigns will be waged
this year and as the bin has passed one
house of the Legislature Ia each of these
states BY large majority there Is little
doubt that It will pass the other house
and go to the voters next fall
This year two new States have been
won To suffrage, Montana, with Sl,74l
women of voting age, and Nevada, with
| 1910. At the beginning of this year
49A per cent of the territory IN the
United States il won for equal suffrage,
The suffrage cause never loses anything.
There are some people who will say We
lost In five States this year. But main,
tain that we cannot lose what we never
had and that the campaigns carried on
in those States In which the bill was not
passed have done more to educate the
people of those States and OF the whole
country to the Importance Of equal suf-
frage as "A political issue than ten years
OF work without campaigns could have
done.
81 feel that our field OF work is now
so broad as TO make woman suffrage no
longer question OF eXpedency, but
rather a political issue. All political par
! ties have recognized this as = fact ana
the question IL now up for consideration
| by all legislative bodies in uon-Suffrage
/ States and by Congress because | he
