The alleged ''pretentious and dis
rupting attempts OF the Congressional
Union for Woman Suffrage to array
the suffragists of the country against
President Wilson and the Democratic
party" were denounced and depIored
by Mrs. Helen ii. Gardener. acting
chairman of the Congressional COM
mittee of the National American
Woman Suffrage Association. in a for
NAL statement issued last night
According to press reports" reads
the statement, the Congressional
Union has once more served notice
that unless the Federal suffrage
amendment is passed at this session
of Congress, the votes of 100000
women will be cast against the Demo-
cratic party. Nothing could be more
pretentious and disTupting than this
attempt TO make il appear that the
suffragists and women voters of the
country are behind any wholesale at
tack upon any political party. There
is no basis in fact for the threat and
the attempt to inject partisan poll
tics into the struggle for the vote
only serves to create new barriers
and new difficulties.
The idea of holding the Demo-
cratic party responsible for the pas
sage OF the Federal amendment en-
franchising women was borrowed by
Miss Alice Paul from England. where
