WILL, SHE SCRATCH2

Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait seems
to be disgusted with the Suffrage
Plank" adopted by the Democratic
National Convention at st. Louis last
week. She spoke in the following en-
phatic terms concerning the plank:
"The so-called suffrage plank, which
they adopted after bursts of eloquence
that were far more frank than intel
igent, cannot be expected to win the
presidential campaign for them. But
it may we'll be expected to win the an
tagonism of millions of men and wom-
en- voters in all parts of the country
"If the plank adopted today is the
presidents choice, the world may just
ly accuse him of descending to the
tricks of the cheapest politician in or
der to bid for votes by Haunting a
plank that may be interpreted in as
many ways as there are people"
