SUFFRAGE PLAYED
IMPORTANT PART
IN NIL ELECTION

(By Mrs. George Bass, Chairman of
the Womans Bureau of the Demo-
cratic National Committed
No one can prove that the women
re- elected President Wilson. but a
sane estimate of the women's share
of the Wilson vote leaves little room
for doubt that the women's part was
of enormous significance.
In all probability the women cast
|one-eighth of the total Wilson vote
of the country. Wilson's plurality
was 56S,S22 The women cast abou.
l,I09,S99 Wilson votes.
This estimate is based on the pro-
portion of adult males and females
in the Suffrage States in relation to
the total Wilson vote. with an allow
ance for the assumption that women
do not vote as generally as do men.
IN all OF the twelve Suffrage States
there are more men than women.
The highest excess of men is in Ne
yada where there are 1892 men to
levery 100 women. Illinois has the
nearest to a normal balance between
the sexes, with 1868 men to every
10a women. Taking all the Suffrage
States together, the average excess
is 134.3 men to every 100 women. So
OF course there was an actual pre-
ponderance of mems votes over won.
ems votes for both Wilson and
Hughes. The question is how great
was the preponderanee and If the re-
latien of the Wilson vote to the
Hughes vote would have been
changed il only the men had been
voting
1t is probably fair to deduct five
per cent as allowance for the women
who did not vote. All the campaign
workers in the Suffrage States are
af1eed that in most States the WON
ems vote was very heavy. On this
basis. the conclusion is that the
women cast 12.1 per cent of all the
votes for Wilson in the United
States.
This figure becomes specially in

VEGETABLES AT
MIAMI KILLED;
CITRUS TREES
were UNHURT

Miami, r'eb. Although 1t
would be hard to estimate the exact
damage done by the frost, the lead
ing growers throughout the county
concede that the injury will aggre-
gate several hundred thousand dol
lars.
A careful estimate yesterday led
to the belief that practically all OF
the vegetable crop has been wiped
out with the exception. perhaps. of
some Of the hardy plants which were
cnly partly injured.
In the vicinity of Florida City the
damage was not so bad as in the
northern part of the country. accord
ing to information received from
that place last night. 1t was re-
ported there that about ten per cent.
CT the young tomatoes were killed
and older vines damaged badly, al
though It was thought these may be
saved by pruning. The cabbage ami
peppers were practically unhurt,
AS the greatest acreage about
Florida City is in late tomatoes and
cabbages. the growers of that section
feel encouraged by the fact that
prices will continue to advance.
So far as can be learned the citrus
fruit trees throughout the county
were unhurt.
The vegetable growers will be
able to replant their crops In ample
time to catch the spring markets and
work will be begun Immediately to
replant thousands Of acres in Dade
county.
MANY growers were contemplating

instead, begin preparing for a new
crop. which will take several weeks
before the vegetables are ready for

Practically all young unprotected

only a part of the pineapples were

teresting when 1t is compared with
the women's share of the vote for
hughes, and the relative size of the
mems vote in the suffrage States for
both Wilson and Hughes.
The women cast about the same
proportion of both the Wilson and
the Hughes vote, that is, 12.1 per
cent. of the Wilson vote and 1873
per cent. of the Hughes vote. But
what did the men do? While they
cast l5 per cent. of the Wilson vote,
they cast 16.5 per cent Of the
Hughes vote.
In other words, the women were
rather more radical, more keen for
progressive Democracy than the men.
This fact is all the more impressive
when one considers that the women
were offered two distinct temptations
to sacrifice Democracy for a hypo-
thetical gain to the suffrage cause
Hughes and the Women's Party and
the Congressional Union made de-
termined appeals for the women's
lvotes-Hughes for obvious political
reasons, via suffrage,-and the
Woman's Party and the Congression-
al Union for suffrage straight.
But both failed The women's
votes in ten OF the twelve States
stood firm. These women are suf-
fragists, OF course. They want all
the women in the country to vote,
as well as themselves. An anti-suf-
fragist in the voting States is as
rare as an icle In summer. But they
could not lend themselves to a ques-
ttcnable benefit to suffrage at the
risk of swinging the country back
into the grip of privilege and pluto
cracy-which was what they knew
the election of Hughes would mean.
There is no getting away from the
conclusion that the women voters
knew what they wanted and voted
for 1t independently. They refused to
be cajoled or threatened or dictated
to.
This remains one of the sig
nifcant features of the presidential
election.
One could even grant the claim of
an anti-suffrage statistician in a re-
cent issue of the New York Times
that women are at least 40 per cent.
more neglectful of their political
duties than men. and still find that
even so the men of the suffrage
States cast a higher proportionate
part of the Hughes vote than the
women. The women would still be
in a position where the claim could
be justly made that they were ap-
psrentiy somewhat more susceptible
than were the men TO the meaning
and value of President Wilson's rec

MONUMENT ERECTED
TO BELGIAN SOLDIERS
(By Associated Press. }

Paris, Feb. 5-A monument of
rather original conception, designed
by Corporal GEORGE Hendrick, of
BRUSSELS, and erected by the Belgian
army on the battlefield of the User.
will commemorate the heroism of the
Belgian soldiers who fell there in
defence of the last little corner of
free Belgium.
A massive wall, symbolical of the
rampant that opposed the German
advance in Flanders will rise from
the center of the semi-circle or para
pets so arranged as to recall the
trench life on the User front Thir
ty-f four small columns will be erect
ell at the base of the ramparts to
bear the engraved names of men who
died on the User.
A block of uncut stone bearing on
one face the verses that thel ate poet
Verhaeren consecrated to the young
Relgians who have died for their
country will be placed in the front
OF the wall.
The location of the monument will
probably not be given out for pub
lication until all danger of lombard
ments has passed.
