WOMAN'S HOUR
HAS STRUCK;
MRS. CARRIE Gait
Great War Will Bring I'm.
told Change Declares
Suffrage Leader
fBy Associated Press,

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Sept. T.
The National American Woman Suf
frage Association yesterday decided
to continue its policy of favoring both
national and state legislation to bring
about equal rights for women.
An amendment had been proposed to
confine the work Of the Organization
to the federal amendment and an
other amendment proposed that the
association confine its efforts to state
legislation. Both we're defeated by an
overwhelming vote.
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait, president
Of the National American Woman's
Suffrage association, in her address be
fore the convention Of the association
today pictured the suffrage movement
as having reached a crisis which means
that 1.-THE Women's Hour Has Struck
Earnestly. she exhorted the women moi
to lose heart but to recognize the pres
ent opportunity which "if seized with
vigor. enthusiasm and will. means the
final victory of our great cause In
the very near future"
She said. in part:
THE great war will bring untold
changes In its wake; 1t presages q
total change in the status of women
In Europe, from the Polar Circle tc
the Aegean sea women have risen and
taken the places made vacant by men
and In so doing they have grown II
self.respect and in the esteem Of thei1
respective nations. In deed, Europe Il
realizing as 1t never did before, that
women are holding together the civil
cation for which men are fighting. A
great searchlight has been thrown
upon the business of nation.buildine
and 1t has been demonstrated in ev
cry European land that It Is a part
nership with equal but different re
sponsibilities resting upon the two
partners.
THE war will soon end and the
armies will return to their native lands
To many family, the men will neve,
come back. The husband who returns
to many a wife will eat no bread the
rest Of his life save Of her earning.
What then will happen after the
war? Will the widows left with fami
lies to support cheerfully leave thei,
well-paid posts for those command
ing lower wages? Not without pro
test! The economic axiom, denied
and evaded for centuries will be EN-
balzoned on every factory, countine
house and shop; equal pay for euua
work; and common justice will slowl,
but surely enforce that law. The Eu
ropean woman has arisen. She MAY
not realize 1t yet but the woman door
mat in every land has unconsciously
become a 'doorjamb.' She will have
become accustomed to her new dignity
by the time the men come home. She
will wonder how she ever could have
been content lying across the TIRES
hold now that she discovers the up
right jamb gives 80 much broade,
and more normal vision Of things.
