WOMAN SUFFRAGE
Lloyd George Declares in
Favor of Wide Extension
of Franchise
REFORM PROGRAM
IS UNDER WAY

LONDON, March 29.-Speaking in
the House OF Commons on the pro-
gram for electoral reform moved by
ex-Premier AsQuth, Premier Lloyd
George yesterday declared himself in
favor Of woman suffrage.
The Premier paying the warmest
tribute TO woman's work during the
war especially the devotion, courage
and zeal Of woman munition makers.
said that when, after the war. tho
nation came to recast the whole in
dustrial fabric, to give woman no
voice therein would be an outrage: il
would be inequitable. unjust and I'M
grateful, and he believed that the
country would not sanction such i'm
Justice for a moment. He. therefore.
welcomed the recommendation for
woman suffrage, and declared he ia
vored also a generous extension Of
the electoral franchise by reducing to
three months the period for qualify
ing for voting and by assuming the
qualification of every soldier and
sailor.
Lloyd George said that i'm the opn-
ion Of the government it would be
a national waste if the results of the
recent parliamentary conference on
electoral reform were thrown away.
He agreed to tho dosrability OF avoid
ing all political controversies during
the war. Parliament tO be elected
after peace was declared would have
20 solve quickly the problems which
would determine the course Of things
In Great Britain and the empire for
generations and unless he was mis-
taken i'm tho temper OF the people
they did not intend TO intrust this
tremendous reconstruction to any
party machine; they meant, he beliey-
cd to take it into their own hands.
Therefore. he declared that he was
glad that men of all political faiths
had agreed upon a basis for an cleo
torate, millions of whom had made
sacrifices for their country.
After intmating that the govern
ment was not prepared to adopt pro-
portional representation, the Premier
concluded by expressing the hope
that the House would show the same
spirit. not merely OF Cancellation but
Of good sense, and carry through the

substantially in the form in which
they were made and without the Bit

Ex-Promier AsQuith in moving the
adoption Of the plan for electoral re-
form said the House would not be un-
prepared TO hear that he and other
members no longer regarded the
question Of woman suffrage from the
standpoint they occupied before the
war.
Mr.. AsQuith said his opposition TO
woman suffrage always had been bas-
ed solely on consideration of public
cXpedimcy The wOmen had now
worked out their own salvation. The
war could not be carried on without
them What moved him especially.
he added was the problem of recon-

heard directly.
The fact that for three years there
had been no recurrence of the do
tcstablo campaign which had disfig-
ured our public life.' said Mr.. AS
quith, would make il impossible for
any one TO say that in changing his
position i'm regard to suffrage he and
his assistants had yielded to force
what they had refused to yield to arl
gumcnt With the exception Of the
actual bearing of arms in the field.
there was hardly a service which had

February ], 1916.
One hundred and six years ago,

In the fine suburbs of Paris
There stood a wayside inn.
Twas cold, frosty morning,
A February day,
When an old man chanced
10 pass that way.
In the outer garden,
He quietly took a chair;
Removed his hat,
Passing his fingers wearily
Through his long gray hair.

And rather shabbily dressed,
He sat down near tine table
A little while to rest.
Presently one Of the walters
Placed before him a bottle OF
this Wine.'
"Not any today, think you.
I'm rest one moment,
But you are very kind
"Monsieur, the best way TO rest
Is to take a good glass Of
this wine.f
So he drew ont the cork,
And poured out somci It was

away
The Young man ran after him and
said:
