FIRST ANTl-SUFFRACE CONVENTION
Delegates From Every Section Of the Country Opening
Session in Washington Elihu Root Contributed Paper
Attacking the Movement for Federal Suffrage Amend
ment

WASHINGTON, Dec. z. - Delegations
from every section of the country
were present today at the opening of
the first anti suffrage convention. They
listened to number of addresses by
women and men dep1orfng the seek
ing by women of political equality and
urging that they can be or more and
greater service to the nation in other
fields Most Of the speakers. including
Mrs. Arthur M. Dodge. of New York.
Opposed to Woman Suffrage, attacked
particularly the movement for a fed
eral suffrage amendment.
Elihu Root, in a paper read for him
by Miss Alice Hill Chrittenden. OF
New York, protested against such an
mendment,. holding it contrary to the
spirit of American institutions and the
subsection of the people of one state
to the government of others.
Elihu Roots Paper.
"T am against having the constitu-
ton OF the United States amended
so as. to impose woman suffrage on
the states which do not wish for it,
not merely or chiefly because my
judgment does not approve of woman
suffrage, but for much more vital
reason said Mr.. Roots paper.
ct is a destruction of the right of
self government and a subsection of
the people of New York to the gov
eminent of others. Having. failed to
secure the .assenteto woman suffrage
of such states as South Dakota and
West Virginia and Ohio and New
York and Pennsylvania, the advocates
of woman suffrage now seek to COM
pei such states to accept 1t against
their will and to compel them to carry
on their local government and select
their representatives in the national
government in conformity to the opin-
ions Of the people of other states who
are in favor of woman suffrage. /
think such an ATTEMPT is contrary to
the principles of liberty upon which
the American union was established
and without which it cannot endure.
Without the right of local self
government we should lose the better

part of our liberty. This country is
so vast, the difference in climate, In
physical characteristics, in capacity
for production, in predominant INDUS
tries, and in the resultant habits OF
living and thinking are SO great that
there are necessarily wide differences
of view as to the conduct of life and
to subject any section of the country
In Its local affairs to the dictation of
the vast multitude of voters living In
ate condition of fntoierable tyranny
and to use the power OF the nation to
bring. about that condition would be
Co make the nation an instrument Of
tyranny. It Is needless to argue that
this would ultimately destroy the ma
ton.
The one exercise of. national power
over suffrage to prevent dtscrimina-
ton against the black race was made
and justified only upon the same
grounds which Justified the war and
the emancipation proclamation and for
the time being destroyed all local gov
eminent in the seeding states. II
establishes no precedent and Justifies
no attempt at control upon a less ter
rible and compelling cause
Cardinal Gibbons Message.
Cardinal Gibbons sent a message
which was readf1 deprecating the par
ticipation of women in politics. Fred
erick Huidekoper. vice president of the
merican Surety League, spoke in the
place of General Leonard Wood. who
was unable to attend, and urged the
suffragists to work for the cause
of preparedness. Miss Mabel Board
man, of the American Red Cross, told
of the work of that organization. 9th
er speakers including Miss b. L. Rob-
nson, of Cambridge, Mass, president
of the Public interests League told
how anti-suffra gists and assisted the
work of the Red Cross during the war
In Europe.
Members of the National Association
tonight attended a banquet at which
there were other addresses. The con-
vention will continue through tomor-
row.

tive on the part Of the defendant
