later that she was elected.

comment when cheering friends
broke the news.
.'Of course" said Miss Rankin to-
day, II know I'll be the first woman
member of congress, but l won't be
the last, and l believe I'll be received
with courtesy and as an equal BY the

In addition to her eight hour and
equal wage laws. Miss Rankin in
tends to fight for woman suffrage
from the moment she gets into the
capital. Her suffrage bill. she says,
will be one OF the first introduced al
the next session. She also declares
