Leverage Gained BY Present

Miss Burns had no suggestions TO

for the movement. She then spoke
OF some Of the interstate exigencies
which had stirred this inspiration.

bit, on the other hand, build them
selves up through the process of CO.
facilities along one line. at the same
time depending largely upon the diff

supply its other wants. This CO.
operation must be seconded by
other cooperative measures. in which
women are factors. but which are
dead letters without universal suf-
frage.
People travel from one State to
another. so that the problems of go

So do the rights of women voters

not all altruism. 1t is the next
plausible automatic step to be taken
in the course OF human affairs"
Scope Is Widened.
Concerning the altruism which
enters into the movement there is
very little necessity of speaking.
The gradual widening OF the
scope of suffrage is proof enough
Of the fact that women want 1t
and need 1t. and that men need 1t,
too.
That some States have allowed
women to vote while other States
have not given that right over to
women members of their commun-
ity seems such an unreasonable
injustice that correction Of the
fallacy Of such viewpoint would
naturally be the cheerfully ac-
cepted duty Of the enfranchised."

put on the market so cheaply that
25 cents buys book of several

Some books are filled with assort-

Universal Suffrage Sought
BY 'Enfranchised Who Are

4 selves together into an ef-
fective body so as to utilize
the leverage they have on one
fourth of the members of the Senate
and one-sixth OF the members Of
the House who come from suffrage
States. for the purpose Of obtaining
the constitutional amendment for
universal suffrage?
No one knows just yet. but II will
not be very long before they do. as
with that special intention. the great
suffrage rally is to be held at the
San Francisco Exposition Septem-
ber IA. Is. and IS. under the auspices
of the Congressional Union.
WASHINGTON was notified of the
rally yesterday. when two amateur
bill posters. Miss Elizabeth Smith.
and Miss Jov Young, plastered the
city with huge posters In black and
white. showing woman bugler
calling the forces together, and Civ
ing an announcement of the event.
The Congressional Unionists have
literally scattered the posters from
ocean to ocean. In almost every city
and town in the United States.
Actual Voters Preferred.
Although any suffragist can attend.
only the women who are actual
voters will have a voice in the as
