International News Service:
CHICAGO, Nov. 14.-Defeat OF
votes-fo r-women in South Dakota
and West Virginia, the only states
that voted on suffrage at last Tues
Gays election, has by no means dis
couraged suffrage leaders, who al
ready are beginning TO plan their
1917 campaigns.
In West Virginia. the proposal
was voted down by an Overwhelm-
ing majority. In South Dakota the
suffrage cause lost by only about
5000 votes out of more than $4,000
cast.
Western suffrage leaders who
have been in close touch with cam
paigns in both states, today attrib-
uted the defeats 10 two factors. one
was the lack Of proper organization
in advance of the campaign and the
other. suggested particularly by
democratic wemen, was the attack
made BY tha woman's party~on
Pres't Wilson during the campaign.
Reports from West Virginia said
that many democratic voters, other
wise favorable to suffrage, turned
against the women because Of the
attack by a wOmans organization
on the president. Combining with
republican voters opposed to votes
for women, they rolled up a big
majority against the proposal.
We're Confident
National suffrage leaders are said
TO have advised against a campaign
this year in South Dakota. The
South Dakota suffragists assured
them that they could handle the
situation without outside help. but
were defeated in "a close race. It
was this fact that led the national
convention Of suffragists at Atlantic
City to adopt a resolution declaring
that no state organizations i'm the
future shall attempt a campaign
without the sanction of the nation
al organization.
II do not believe that the suffrage
movement has reached its crest, de-
spite the fact that we were beaten
last week" said Mrs. Grace Wilbur
Trout. president of the Illinois Equal
Suffrage association, today In
stead We are pushing on. Defeat
doesn't do as any good at this timer
but we learn that it pays to make
haste slowly"
To Hold Conference.
A conference of national suffrage
leaders probably will be held soon
TO map ont the 1897 campaign.
, Thus far suffragists are undecided
what states 10 make their battle
grounds in in 1917.
Illinois. where women by legisla-
tive enactment may vote for federal
and municipal offices. no effort will
be made by the state organization
this year % btain a constitutional
amendment gr lnting fun suffrage
Instead. Mrs. trout said today. the
suffragists will back a proposal for
! a state constitutional convention,
hoping 10 insert a suffrage plank in
the new state code.
In the u states in which women
voted last Tuesday. a heavy fem
mime vote was cast Unofficial re-
turns, however, indicate that on ma
tional questions. at least, women
divide their vote in approximately
the same ratio as the men.
