Mrs. Bennett scorned some of the pictures that are shown at moving picture houses, also the dance halls
 young girls are allowed to attend
 unknown to their parents. Often
 drunken young mon mingle with these
 girls and later the reeling forms of the young women can be seen along the streets. If there are any laws to prevent this they are made by man, but the enforcement, which is also supposed to be carried out by man, is woefully weak.
 Speaking further on the question of suffrage Mrs. Bennett said:
 1T have always considered that it was an easy and a delightful thing to speak in favor of woman suffrage and an honor to be an active member of tho association organized for that sole purpose. For years we have been laying most of the stress on educa- tional work, by telling people through articles in the papers and in speeches the true reason for extending to women political freedom. Now we have entered upon @ new era because votes for women has become a live political issue in both state and na- tional affairs. The national parties, both republican and democratic, have put blanks in their platforms un- qualifiedly endorsing the principles of woman suffrage as a measure of justice to quote the words of the re- publican plank. Tn the states both parties have endorsed their national political program, and the democrats have even added a, specific suffrage plank to their state platform. After this political acknowledgment we feel in very secure position. No man who has been elected on a. party ticket to the legislature can fail to support the further extension of the suffrage to women in this state with out repudiating the pledge of his party which he has accepted as his, Or else repudiating the pledge of his party which he has accepted as his, O relse repudiating the constitution of the State of Connecticut and the Declaration of Independence which are at the very foundation of our commonwealth These documents state that all political power is in
New Britain herald., 1916-10-25

herent in the people and that a gov crnment derives it's just powers from the consent of the governed. Having acknowledge that women are, pOli- tically speaking, people and a part of the governed to deny them the full rights of citizenship would be both
 illogical and cruel. How the fair minded mon of this state can place women in the position of working any longer for the vote is surprising to me when you consider the type of people lined up for and against the move ment. On the suffrage side is the National Grange, the National and State Federation of WOmen's clubs, the National and State Federation of Labor, most of the clergy and all of those women who are giving their lives to humanitarian work and social

BY BAN II. JOHNSON
President Of the american league

great national game is everywhere ap-
I parent This enthusiasm furnishes a
striking contrast to the period imme-
| diately preceding the campaign of 1914
and 1915
It is needless for me to refer to the
distressing conditions under which the
game labored i'm the last two years,
for these are still fresh in the minds
of every fan. Suffice il to say, that
the situation having been clarified
during the winter months, baseball is
again due for a period of prosperity
which I hope will equal, if not sUrpass,
those wonderfully prosperous seasons
Of 1912 and 1913.
Teams Arc On Edge.
Believing in the doctrine of prepar-
edness, the American league club own
ers have their teams on edge and
eager for the fray, as the result OF long
training seasons under southern skies.
We have had many exciting races for
our remnants, but I cannot recall one
which. prior to the opening of the
season. was more promising than that
which is now upon US.
Boston. Chicago, Detroit, New York,
Washington and St Louis are, from
NV point Of view, almost certain con-
tenders for the right TO get into the
land, an unknown quantity at present
NAV develop enough speed and STAN
ina to make matters decidedly lively
and interesting loI AAt uAAcAo-
The Cleveland club is in the hands
of the new owners this year; men OF
brains and push and money. The ques-
tion Of expense viii not enter into
their calculations If they can strengthen
their team and make it factor in the
championship race.
Fielder Jones = Contender.
Another Of our clubs also changed
hands during the winter-St. Louis.
'Tbe manager Of this club is none
other than Fielder Jones, who led the
white Sox to the worlds champion
shin in 1906. Jones, when in the Amer
-fean league always showed remark
,abIe ability in handling team, and he
knew how to get the best results out
Of his men. That's why 1 think the
ST. Louis team. with Jones as its pilot.
should be rated as a possible pennant
contender. ,,
AS for Connie Mack, he is still en-
evaoed in the arduOUs task OF rebuild
ing his Athletics; but Connie, wizard
that he Is, can hardly hope 10 figure
seriously in the race OF 1915 But, az
that he may surprise US.
In conclusion, ] wish TO say that
with normal conditions in the base
han world restored, major and minor
league club owners. the country over
face the future with feeling OF con-
fidence-a feeling that the grand old
came has come back. and that the fans
are now ready and anxious to support
il as enthusiastically as they did IN the
DAYS OF its greatest prosperity.
