SAYS CONFERENCE
WILL Be FOR HUGHES
Chairman Of Women's Party
Predicts This Will Happen
August |

Denver, Colo, Aug. 3.-One hundred
thousand dollars and the influence of
the national woman's party will be east
into the balance in favor of Charles
Evans Hughes and against President
Wilson if the democrats fail to pass the
federal suffrage amendment at the
present session of congress.
Miss Anne Martin, chairman of the
woman's party, stated to the United
Press here today:
"We must judge the democratic
party on its performance and the re-
publican party on its promises. Just as
we hold President Wilson to a strict ac-
countability for his suffrage record, so
we will hold Governor Hughes to his
promise of national suffrage, if he is
elected.
"The leaders of the woman's party
are no babes in the woods. We real
ize that politics and hope of victory
may have had great deal to do with
the change in Governor Hughes toward
favoring national suffrage. But we have
not even promise from the democrats
owe have every confidence that as
leader of his party, Governor Hughes
secures the political freedom of all
women will inevitably win the undying
loyalty and adherence of the women
voters. viii the democrats give this
great opportunity to the republican
partyp
Miss Martin is directing efforts to
raise 100000 campaigfn fund for
the woman S party. Anticipating no
satisfactory action from the democrats,
Miss Martin stated that plans have been
practically completed for a vigorous
campaign by the woman's party in the
IL suffrage states in behalf of the re-
publican party.
'l myself am democrat" said Miss
Martin. 81 would like to vote for
President Wilson. But as a member of
the woman IS party my first intent is to
secure national woman suffrage"
Two organizers of the woman s party
and of the congressional union for wo-
man suffrage have actually been at
work for months in each of the equal
suffrage states. One is in charge of
state headquarters and works in coop
Grafton with the state and congression-
al district chairman. The second organ
izer travels around the state and ar
ranges meetings for a corps of speakers
routed from national headquarters in
Chicago.
Miss Martin expects the conference
of the woman IS party in Colorado
Springs, August 1912, formally to de-
clare for Hughes. Afterward the wo-
mans campaign will be directly point
ed to help elect him.
