Bennett Thinks
Suffrage Will Vim
Nev York Congressman GiOcs
Reason Why Ncw Constitution
Failed OF Ratification.

Congressman William S. Bennett, of
New York. who has just been returned
to the national House Of representa-
tiHeS after brief recess In private life.
voted on the losing side in the recent
Empire state election. but he still re-
tains an abiding faith In the ultimate
triumph of woman suffrage and con-
stitutional reform.
The Congressman from New York
was one Of the prominent men in the
Atlantic Deeper Waterways caravan
that made four-hour halt last night
in Richmond. En- route to historic st.
Johns In Main street car he dis
cussed checrfully the outlook for prog
rcss in his State.
Woman suffrage was beaten in New
York last Tuesday. but that doesn't
mean that it will stay beaten" said
Mr.. Bennett. IL don't know when the
suffrage referendum will be submitted
again. | don't think it will be long.
And the next time it is submitted to
the people it will be carried. The tri
umph Of woman suffrage. in my opin-
ion. is inevitable in New York and in
every other state in the Union"
why did your people reject the pro-
posed new Constitutions" he was ask ed.
because there was too much of it,"
replied Mr.. Bennett promptly. IN
order to vote against any particular
section that he did not like. the voter
had to vote against the whole plan.
You can't expect to adopt Il new Con-
stitution in any such way. OF course
there were plenty of men VINO suspect
cd it OF leaning too far toward the cor
porations. but | don't think that was
what really beat il.
I'VE are going To get constitutional
reform in New York. hut it won't he by
adopting blanket Constitutions. We
will probably get il by the state Leg
islature picking out the desirable feat
urcs Of the Constitution that has been
rejected and submitting them to the
