SUFFRAGE BOUND
WIN, SAYS BRYAN
If Not Now. Some Other Time,
Ex-Secretary Tells German
American Women.

William Jennings Bryan. introduced
as "the man without an Office" was
greeted with "Der Wacht am Rhein'
when he rose TO speak at the German
American woman suffrage mass meeting
held last night in Terrace Garden, Fifty
eighth Street and Lexington Avenue.
After admitting he had been making
campaign speeches for thirty-fve years,
Mr.. Bryan said:
Even my experience in guessing
elections tand don't think I'm the only
one who ever missed a guess on Elec-
ton Day. cannot help to hazard guess
as 20 how you are going to vote this
November. But | know this: If you
don't vote for woman suffrage this time,
YOU will some time, for it's the one
thing that's sure.
"The people of the West are more in
dependent than those OF the East, be-
cause concentration Of wealth IN the
East has put the power into the hands
Of a few. Concentration Of wealth con-
trolls your newspapers, and you don {
get chance to know what's true until
they are ready TO let you know
Applause of about twenty seconds
duration followed this statement.
"A voter needs both intelligence ana
morality 10 vote well" Mr.. Bryan con
tinued. Il have noticed that IN the
penitentiaries all over the United
20 frsH a y N
majority. Ard 7 have noticed that all
over the United States in the churches
women are overwhelmingly in the ma
iority. Now, if women have sense
enough 20 keep out Of the penitenti-
aries and morality enough 20 20 to
church. aren't they III 20 vote
Then every presumption IS on the
side of woman suffrage. We trust wom-
en- i'm every other relation. Why not
with the ballot? Women are trusted
az moral. social and intellectual inhu-
ences. Why not as political influences {.
"A wife largely determines what her
husband is or can be. When he trusts
her with his very life, with his emil
dren's lives, why can't he trust her for
a few minutes on Election Day 10 so
and cast ballot
mo state that has ever adopted
woman suffrage has ever gone back on
IT, There are no antis IN the states
which have woman suffrage. There >
ro effort made 70 20 back TO the Old
system.
Two things have decided upon
and they are -that as long as you
trust woman in everything else goa
might as well trust her 10 use her
bs lot rightly and that when you once
get woman suffrage il will be an end
e the question
In closing Mr.. Bryan alluded TO the
European war and said: We need
women to help US set up real stand

HOMELESS MEN
BURDEN ON CITY
Passed On by Other Places, All
Come Here. Says Charity
Official.

New York City has been obliged
especially within the last two years, 20
bear more than her share of the prob
lem of the homeless man. declared ".
Frank Persons. director Of the Charity
Organization Society, yesterday, IN an
address given under the auspices Of the
School of Philanthropy at l05 East
Twenty Street.
There are few municipalities in 'he
United States" he said. which are
making any serious attempt 70 solve
this problem. Their policy, as rule.
is to give the yaerant temporary care
and then pass him on 10 the next city.
Sooner or later these men drift 20 New
York. Here they stay for longer or
shorter periods OF time, TO form real
social menace.
This problem is not one for charity
TO solve alone II must be solved by
state and municipal control. The prob
lem of the homeless man in New York
City should be centralized i'm the Mu-
nicipal Lodging House. Citizens who
are approached on the street with a
request for money for nights lodging
and breakfast should send the applicant
to the Municipal Lodging House. in East
Twenty Street.
IF the man needs anything further
the lodging house can readily bring him
20 the attention of the Charity Organi-
zation Society or some similar agency.
At the Municipal Lodging House no
ablebodied man should be given food or
lodging without being asked for a re-
turn in labor. | understand that plans
for work test are under considera-
ton now. Such work test, however.
TO be effective. must be supplemented by
treatment for such homeless men as are
chronic Migrants.
Through the efforts of the Charity
Organization Society and other agen-
cies, the Legislature some years ago
established a state farm colony for
Migrants. The land has been pur-
chased. but it still lies idle. | believe
that the state can take no greater step
toward the solution Of the homeless
man problem than by putting this farm
colony into operation.
AT present magistrates hesitate to
sentence men for vagrancy. The pen
atty is severe, and the man is no bet
ter off after serving sentence than he
was before. In the meantime the cost
