FAVOR WOMAN SUFFRAGE
President Wilson's Advisers Write
Letters Indorsing the Cause.
Views Made Public.

NEW YORK, November 2.-Five
members of President Wilson's cabinet
indorsed woman suffrage in statements
made public here by Mrs. Norman de
R. Whitehouse. chairman of the New
York state woman suffrage party.
Following are extracts from state
ments:
Josephus Daniels, Secretary of the
Navy: "The mothers of men train
their Joys for citizens. and If they are
to be trusted with the early education
and shaping of the character of the
boys, is there any reason on earth why
they should not be trusted with the
ballotr
Franklin K Lane. Secretary of the
Interior: II see no reason to fear
woman suffrage. 1t has not worked
disaster in California. AS a matter of
political philosophy, suffrage cannot be
put aside and as matter of wise pol
icy 1t is not to be denied"
Daniel F. Houston, Secretary Of Agri-
culture: '"The patriotism. self-control
and intelligent action of women in the
present emergency lend additional sup
port to the argument and should dis
pei any doubts fair-minded men may
have entertained as to the wisdom Of
enfranchising them"
William G. McAdoo, Secretary Of the
Treasury: The time has come when
suffrage should be given to the women
Of America. 1t should be given
promptly; 1t should be given ungrudg-
ingly; it should be given gladly. The
women of the United States have in
every way since this war has broken
out shown themselves qualified for the
right of suffrage"
William c. Redield, Secretary of
Commerce: II am an earnest believer
in suffrage for women. There are large
sections of our public affairs in which
women-merely because they are wom-
en-are experts. The cause of educa-
ton is one Of these matters; another
Is the whole question of dealing with
the liquor traffic in all its forms; SO

lows:
OF the total amounts the Treasury
heads the list, with food and fuel ad-
mfnistrations second.
The Interior heads the list in per
capita. subscriptions (bonds bought by
the women themselves) and the Post
Office is second on this count.

centage OF women subscribing, with
the shipping hoard next. OF the depart
