SENATOR SMITH TO
 VOTE WOMEN sUFFRAcE

WASHINGTON. D. C.. June s--
 Senator Marcus Aurelius Smith of Tucson. Arizona. the one dark spot in the State so far as the federal sui frage amendment for women is con cerneG. has come into the fold. and suiiraeists are rejoicing. He stated today that he will vote for the Su- san B. Anthony amendment. which sufsragists are hoping to pass as war measure in the immediate fu- ture.
 Senator Smiths change of heart was brought about by an Arizona woman. Dr. Marion Walker VII Hams. of Phoenix. a member of the national advisory council of the wo- mans Party. the suffrage organiza- tion that is working solely for the passage of the amendment now as var measure. Dr. Williams was in the national capital but few hours. She spent one of them making the trip to the capitol with Mrs. William Kent of California. wife of ex-Rep- resentative Kent. for the express purpose Of changing Senator Smiths record for all time.
 That suffrage record of the Sena- tors had been wobbling. and Arizona women. as well as the women of other states. were beginning to get anxious for the credit of the suffrage states: also some of the Senator's friends were worried for the good of the Senator's political soul. pointing out to him that there is always a day of reckoning in politics. and quoting to him that old one about "a woman scorned."
 So Dr. Williams call was timely. The Senator admitted that he was a Kentucky gentleman of the old school. with States Rights Jennings. But have decided to vote for the federal amendment in the Senate" was his conclusion. pr. Williams. remembering that the willy Senator had paired with Elihu Root in lsl4. when suffrage was first voted on, cautioned him that the eye of Ari- zona was upon him--st least the fem inie eye.
 Dr. Williams, after business en, gagements in Baltimore and New York. will return 10 Phoenix at the end Of June.
