CATHOLICS AND EQUAL SUFFRAGE
Edited by FLORENCE BAYARD HILLES
Chairman Of the Congressional Union

men Is the political right, but as she
advances, in like proportion is preiu-
dice swept away and today We find
that wherever the spirit of progress
and justice has been allowed TO de-
velop. equal suffrage for women is a
practical, successful fact.
We already have equal suffrage in
ten States OF the Union and in Alas
ka. It is significant that the fran
chise was granted to- the women Of
Alaska in the hope that il would speed
the reform and civilization Of that
wild country. The States having full
unlimited shfrage for women are Wy
oming. Colorado. Utah. Idaho, Wash
ington. California. Oregon. Kansas
and Arizona, Illinois has presidential
and municipal suffrage. that is, the
women may vote for the president and
city officials. but have no power over
the law makers. the Legislature.
Perhaps you may wish to know
what good does this granting the bal
lot 10 woman do? Are women going
to run for ofice. and shall we have
women Presidents, governors, may
ors? Let us trust not Suffragists
do not want these things. What they
want is this A voice in the making
OF laws that affect them, their homes
and their children It has been proven
in the States where equal suffrage for
women is a fact. that more has been
done for humanity. that is In the
way Of laws affecting child labor, NOR
al conditions, sanitary conditions,
working hours for women. etc, in the
few years that women have had the
vote, than in all the years preceding.
II is the change in economic con-
ditions that has brought about this
desire of women for the ballot. We
know that every married woman's
! first duty is 20 her home When the
spinning and weaving, the sewing and
shoemaking. as well ss the cocking
were done under her immediate SUI
pervision, her interests we're bounded
by the walls Of Ger dwelling. But
today when the material for children S
clothes If not the garments them
selves. are purchased ready made, and
many of the articles OF food upon
her table are produced outside the
home, IL becomes the duty of every
woman TO see that these commodities
are produced under sanitary condi-
tions and that the laborers making
them are working under just laws
Her interests have widened, and it is
but just that the power TO control
should be commensurate with her re-
sponsibilities. In the days when al,

"Y0TES FOR WOMEN"

but in response to the request of our
president, I want to say a few words
about the question OF woman suffrage.
We hear great deal for and against
his just now and | merely want to
call your attention to a few facts.
which ! trust, will prove of interest.
Someone hiss suggested that the
Catholic Church does not approve of
suffrage for women. can assure you
thet the church has made no pro-
nouncement on the subject, On the
contrary, in the colony of New Zeal

Catholic magazines are openly in
favor Of the enfranchisement of wo-

II is only right then that VIC Cath

subject that is attracting so much
attention just now. There is no town,
or even village today that has not its

Too many wars have been fought al
ready over the Dardanelles They
have now become-along with Con-
stantinople and The Bosporus-the
chief bone of contention of this war
The sooner their status is settled. the
better for the world If their owner
ship is determined by a decisive cam
psign. it may lead quickly to the end
OF this war and prevent future wars
The ideal solution of the Darda-
nelles problem would doubtless be to
neutralize permanently the whole pas
Aegean. But perfect naturalization
seems impossible 1t has been tried
under Turkish rule, with the super
vision of the powers, and this war
proved the attempt futile 1t is un-
thinkable that that great waterway
should remain in the hands of the
Turk. Some big power, with a sense
OF responsibility to the world, ought
TO have it,
Geographically, of course. the Bos-
porus and Dardanelles belong to Rus
STA Without such a natural outlet to
the Mediterranean, Russia is about in
the position the United States would
be if we had no Atlantic seaboard at
all. except the gulf of Mexico, and
the commercial outlet of the Missis-
sippi and the eastern states were con-
trolled by Mexico and liable to be
closed at any moment. With the Oar
danelles shut, Russian commerce
would be permanently stihed. because
Germany controls, and perhaps always
will control, Russi9's outlet in the
Baltic sea, and her Arctic ports are
Ice bound most Of the year.
Germany however, wants the Oar
danelles in her hands, partly to keep
Russia bottled up, and partly to make
the ancient Bridge of Hellas" a new
Teutonic bridge for a German empire
reaching far into Asia. And there
will be a struggle of unprecedented
fierceness in that stormy channel and
on the ancient battle-ground of races
that borders it. before its ownership Is
settled for good.

WHY NOT BE GENERAL2

We haven't read the proposed lit

be that we have missed some things,
which we hope we have We hope
the council will at least be consistent
as far as it goes. go as far as it will,
for consistency is a jewel, even among
councilmen-with some special inter-
est to serve, like for instance, the
south side, which, we understand lives
just now in a more glowing anticipa-
ton Of a Sample street car line.
For the jitney bus question, when
properly handled is as dangerous to
monkey with as the loaded end of an
army mule. We have mentioned sew
eral instances where anti-jitney agita-
ton, or legislation, has back fired.
Now Los Angeles, owned body and
soul by the Pacific Electric and proud
OF it. is guilty of lese majesty.

No, not again; there's an ordinance
against it. And Mayor Sebastian says
it must be enforced; there shall be no

And-whisper this low so it won't
get out-the Los Angeles mayor is in

that if official Germany admits an adj

our own doubts Of 10000 Teutons

The Rockefeller Foundations hook
worm report reveals the amazing eX-
tent 10 which this plague has infected
the human race. We have become
familiar with the fact that IL is preva-
lent in some Of our southern states,
and is found in the tropics generally.
but few persons have realized that
the disease is prevalent in countries
containing more than half the people
in the world.
According to the experts who have
been investigating in many lands, the
hookworn belt circles the globe in
zone about 60 degrees wide. extending
roughly from parallel SO degrees
north to parallel so degrees south. The
number OF persons actually affected is.
of course. impossible to determine;
but there are about 900. OOO.OO people
living in the plague ridden countries,
and the number OF victims certainly
runs into the hundreds OF millions.
II is 90 longer any question-that the
recognized backwardness OF tropical
races is due largely. perhaps primarily.

ambition and progress by sapping it's

'laziness'' OF tropical peoples is really
a chronic tiredness. due TO disease
which in most countries is still unrec-

own southern states great progress
has been made, both in curing victims
and in teaching the natives how TO
avoid contracting the disease. The
same remedial and preventative meas
ures will be extended. before long. to
all the countries affected. or at least
TO all the civilized countries.
Eventually, then. we may see the
additionally "disease-ridden tropics
as healthful as the temperate zone,
and countries now unprogressive or
uninhabitable may become the seats
of a great and vigorous civilization.
