President Wilson's addresses to Con-

America to the rights of democracy.
The suffragists issued a statement
insisting that Miss Burns and Miss
Morey had acted in a peaceable man
ner and only stood on their rights as
citizens ito advance their cause by
means of reasonable argument"
The banner which led to the arrests TO-
day carried this sentence from Presi-
dent Wilson's war message:
I'VE will fight for the things we have
always held nearest our hearts-forN de-
mocracy-for the right Of those who sub
nit to authority to have voice in their
own government"
Leaders at suffrage headquarters were
undecided after the arrest of Miss Burns
and Miss Morey whether another effort
would be made to display a banner.
More Arrests Coming
The suffrage leaders tonight asserted
that an attempt will be made again to-
morrow to display banners at the White
House gates. Police orders to prevent
gatherings of any sort in front Of the
White House. which led to the two ar
rests today, were unchanged tonight and
unless police officials undergo a change
of heart more arrests are bound to occur
tomorrow.
