Pictures of Today and

Seventy odd members of the Dau-

conference in the Board of Trade
building.
Mrs. Gait spoke for more than an
hour on THE Congressional Prospect"
during which time she urged that the
women of the country exert their
efforts to have Congress pass an
amendment to the Constitution of the
United States which would give women
the franchise. This campaign, de-
clared Mrs. Gait, should be started
at once. THE first thing to do is to
get your map and learn where your
congressman resides" she said. "Then
find out whether there is an organ
iZation there, and if there is not by
all means have one there before the
end of the week. Get your congress-
mans friends in the vicinity of his
home interested and then get his rela-
tives into the organization" The
speaker intimated that such organ
ization would eventually have the de-
sired effect on the congressman.
Start At Once
Mrs. Gait wants the campaign for
a federal amendment carried on from
to-day on and in addition she wants
the suffrage workers of Pennsylvania
and the country in general to interest
the members of the Legislature and
work for the election of members who
are favorable to the cause. IL the
Legislatures of the various States are
in favor of suffrage, then Mrs. Gait
believes that with the proper amount
of work and cooperation there will be
little difficulty in having the necessary
states ratify the suffrage amendment
10 the Constitution, and that within
five years the women will have the
franchise.

READY TO PROCEED
WITH U-BOAT PROBLEM

President was one of the surprises of
the day.
Ninety-four Republicans voted TO
table the McLemore resolution. Thirty
three Democrats voted against tabling,
including the Bryan element of the
Democratic party, headed by Warren
Worth Bailey, of Pennsylvania. Rep
rcsentative George S. Graham, of
Philadelphia. made a spirited address,
advocating the tabling of the reso-
luton.
Pcnnsylvanians Patriotic
PENNSYLVANIA stood by its patriotic
traditions and by a vote of "a to 12
helped to table the resolution which
would have cut the ground from under
President Wilson's feet in his nego-
tiations with Germany.
The Pennsylvania delegation is
composed of thirty Republicans and
six Democrats. A majority of the
Republicans of the delegation. as well
as five of the Democrats, voted for
the tabling of the resolution.
If all the other Republicans of the
House had followed Minority Leader
Mann, and there had still been a de-
fection of thirty-three Democrats. the
vote of the Pennsylvania Republicans
would have been sufficient to save the
day for upholding American rights
under international law.
The importance of the votes with
reference to the individual political
fortunes of the members who cast
them can be best understood when it
is stated that Representative Page, of
North Carolina, and Representative
Sherwood. of Ohio, both Democrats.
announced that they would retire from
Congress when they voted for the
tabling of the McLemore resolution.
That these two men should feel that
they must retire from public life as a
result of their votes for tabling the
resolution warning Americans off
armed ships indicates the pressure eX-
erted in the House. It was explained
frankly that in some districts, where
there is a large German vote. the rep
resentatives would take their political
lives in their hands IL they voted to
table the McLemore resolution.
