Because She Is Successful Mother of Seven Children
Can Vote, Mrs. Kent BeliepeS in Helping Other
Mothers of Children to the Ballot

lons as there are other children in the
world who are driven out to work long
before their playtime is over. children
who are hungry and i'll clad and I'M
cared for, I cannot look into the eyes
Of my own children and feel that |
have done my duty.
"And then, too, there are the women
and girls who work at i'll paid labor.
Just because have a comfortable
home is no reason that ! should be
content while there are others who
haven't even the necessities OF life.
What CALIFORNIA; Women Have Done.
81 think we women Of California
have shown those opposed to suffrage
Just why women should vote. We have
had mothers pension laws passed
there, we have helped pass a red-light
abatement bill, we have passed food
inspection bill, and we arc working on
a minimum wage bill. But the great
est result Of all is the interest suffrage
has awakened in the minds Of women
in all civic problems. We have formed
study clubs where we meet and talk
over proposed amendments, and civic
leagues where we take into considera-
ton everything that will benefit our
city or our neighborhood, and clubs to
formulate public opinion, that we may
insure passage of helpful legislation"
During her husbands term in Con-
gress Mrs. Kent lives in Washington,
and she has taken an active part in the
work OF the Congressional Union IN
that city. She has wonderful tact, and
has not aroused the antagoaism Of the
N-tional Suffrage Association as some
members of the new union have.
"They are working for the same
end" she smiled. $50 why oppose them?
They have different ways from ours
and we think it Is not so good. They
are working for the Shsfroth amend
ment. and this, we believe, is a mis-
take. This amendment provides for
the ratification by referendum of three
fourths of the states before it be-
comes a law. The amendment which
we are pushing would become a law on
the favorable action of the legislatures
Of three-fourths of the states. II seems
a much quicker and better method of
gaining universal suffrage. And we
are too busy working on It to antag-
onize any other suffrage organization"

TEACHERS HISS
PRENDERCAST TALK
Favors Reduction in Pay,
He Tells Senate Com
mittee.

lFrom q stsn Correspondent OF The Thbuns.l
Albany, April 1.-Groans and Kisses
greeted the declaration Of Comptroller
prendergast Of New York City, to-day
before about $50 school teachers,
mostly women, that he favored 9 plan
TO reduce their salaries.
The incident happened during a
hearing on the bill Of Assemblyman
Cromwell, which would permit the New
York Board of Alderman and the
Board OF Estimate and Apportionment
to fix salaries Of virtually all city
employees, now fixed by statute.
The Comptroller had spoken Of the
right of city authorities to adjust sal
aries, when Miss Belle A. Ennis, repre-
senting one Of the teachers associa-
tions OF Greater New York, and a men,
Der Of the New York City Board Of Ed
ucation, asked him to explain.
81 mean that the Board of Estimate"
said Mr.. Prendergast. SHOULD have the
right to increase or diminish salaries.
believe in and will advocate a policy
which will result in a reduction and
not an increase of salaries.
"The city's enormous budget is large
" due to mandatory legislation passed
here in Albany. It is only fair we
should have the right to say how We
shall make it up"
Not only should the salaries OF
school tpachers hut those of other city
employees, be cut down, said Controller
Prendergast. Under present laws, he
complains, the Board of Estimate is
directed to pay s75,O00,O00 in salaries
without the direct control over the
payment which the Cromwell bill
would give.
Nearly 1000 New York teachers, in
Guiding Miss Grace Strachan, came TO
Albany to appear against the Cromwell
and several teachers retirement fund
bills. Miss Strachan lobbied all day
long in the Senate yesterday.
Thomas w. Churchill, president Of
the New York City Board of Education,
opposed the Cromwell bill.
1T would put US between the upper
and neither millstones of Albany and
the City Hail." he said. at would
throw the Department of Education
back into politics, and we don't want il
there. Real Home Rule would give this
power to the Board of Education, but IL
we must have limits we would rather
have them fixed at Albany than at the
City Hall"

that will put an end to the fight for

California Women Helping yoteless
Women.
I'm California the women are work
ing TO help you women who haven't the

in San Francisco we have q suffrage

the crowds, and q hall with q moving
picture machine, where we give suf-
fr talks. We have pictures Of all
the Congressman hanging on the walls
and the records of what they have done
and how they stand on suffrage. Our
booth Is really very attractive, and as
inviting as we coull make it, TO appeal
to people in a holiday mood.
"The women who were actively en-
gagged in the fight for suffrage In Cali

N1sRE some one to tell you that
w the Congressional Union hoped
Il would be able to sing its
81 an song within a years time you
would scout the authenticity Of that
statement, yet It came from the lips Of
Mrs. William Kent, Of California, and
she had a very good reason for saying
so, to wit: The Congressional Union
hopes in one years time to pass the
Susan B.. Anthony amendment through
Congress, and, once passed, 1t has as
surances that the twsnty-seven states
needed would vote for Il. and thus
every woman IN tho country would
have suffrage, and the Union would
therefore, automatically dissolve with
It's work well done.
At the home Of her friend Mrs. John
Rogers. 102 East Thirtieth Street, Mrs.
Kent who is a delegate to the Con-
gressional Union conference, spoke en-
Enthusiastically Of the plans Of this suf-
frage party. Mrs. Kent, by the way,
h.s had much experience In fighting
for suffrage. She is also the wife Of
the only Independent member Of Con-
gress, and the mother Of seven chill
dren.
