NEEDS 600 MEN AND WOMEN
FOR SUFFRAGE PAGEANT
Congressional Union Planning Dem
onstration in This City in Be-
half of "Votes for Women"

Six hundred men and women are
needed for the big suffrage pageant to
be held in this city December to 10
under the auspices of the Congression-
al Union for Woman Suffrage, and al
ready campaign is under way to get
the required number and start them
rehearsing.
Two hundred of this number must
be men, who are needed especially for
the mob scenes. Both indoor and out
door meetings now in progress are fea-
tured by big sign reading "Partici-
pants Wanted" and already progress
has been made In enlisting the services
of Washington men and women.
In Charge of Indoor Gatherings.
Mrs. Emily Morrill, is in charge of
the indoor gatherings. Yesterday she
and her committee visited the govern
ment printing Office and the headquar-
ters of the Central Labor Union. To-

OTHER CITIES MAY AID
WASHINGTON Y. w. C. A..
Mrs. Robert Lansing Favors Plan for
Raising Funds to Build
New Home.

The advancement of the broad view
that the Washington Y. w. C. A, in re-
turn for the service rendered to hun
dreds of girls who are natives of other
cities and are but temporarily, perhaps,
in the National Capital, should receive
IA share of support from those cities,
has a strong advocate in Mrs. Robert
Lansing, wife of the Secretary of State.
Mrs. Lansing is particularly interested
in the local Y. W. c. A. and an ardent
worker toward its cherished plan of a
new and sufficiently commodious home
at 18th and l streets northwest, the
ground for which it already possesses.
Asked recently if she could suggest
some way in which the Washington as
ISOLATION might put up the building
for which the plans have been made,
Mrs. Lansing said:
II can see no way except by the as
sociations all over the country help
| ing the cause along. There are. per-
haps. men and women here in Washing
ton who could furnish al least a great
| er part of the money required, but they
have other interests"
| The sentiment is growing among Y
| w. c. A. workers and their friends here
that the other associations ought to
| have it impressed on them that the
| local branch is doing far more than its
share, inasmuch as it cares not only
for natives of the District, but for girls
from hundreds of other places whom
necessity takes to the National Capital.
A small contribution from each of these
branches given in recognition of this
sharing of their burden, would go far
toward solving the. problem. At re-
cent meeting in New York the idea was
preached to number of prominent as
ISOLATION officials: they replied that
they had never before looked on the
matter in exactly that light and gave
the plan preliminary encouragement
