ARKANSAS WOMEN
 WILL NOT UPHOLD WOMEN AT CAPITAL
State, County and City Leaders Displeased With
 Notoriety of Militants.

Mrs. o. F. Ellington chairman of the Equal Suffrage State Central committee speaking of the silent sentinels" who have been picketed
 for some time about tie white house
 grounds in behalf of tre women suf- ! frage cause, yesterday said that tha ; Equal Suffrage Stars Central con- | mittee is not in any way affiliated with the Congressiona, Union, which
 picketed the sentinel., with their banners, but is an auxiliary of the National American Woman Suffrage
 association founded in 1S4S, and is very much opposed t. the partisan methors employed by the Congress sional Union, says tine Littlo ROCK Gazette.
 Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, pres ident of the national association, has
 written an open letter to Miss Alice Paul, the leader of the militant
 movement, asking tha. this method of heckling the president be discon tinued," Mrs. Ellington said, "The national association ls,. and always
 has been. non partissn. The Con- gressional Union is supposed to be a Republican ally. President Wilson is suffragist, Las voted in New Jersey on their state referendum and ! it is believed that he will include wo- man suffrage in his Eext legislative program as war me? sure. This be- ! lief is founded on his endorsement of the woman suffrage committee in the house to compare with the one in the senate. Indications from our repre- sentatiyes in Washington point to the final creation of this committee. The president unat rstands that the national association is working in perfect harmony with him. Among the first of women's organizations to I offer specific assistance for war ser vice was the national association. The offer was accepted and the work was being carried out until the na- tional council of. defense was form ed by congress. Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, honorary president of the Ma tional American Woman Suffrage as- sociation, was made chairman of the womep's committee of the national
 council of defense"
 Local Women DispleGsed. Leaders in Pine Bluff and Jeffer- son county of the equal suffrage
 movement, yesterday, as on previous l occasions, freely and in outspoken 1 terms declared they have absolutely l nol sympathy with the actionsl and EactiYties of the silent sentinels" at Washington. who have succeeded Lin bringing upon the suffrage caus . l so much that is considered deplor
 able.
 There are many men, it is declar-
 ed, who consider the equal suffrage
 movement as headed by women who
 are of the so called militant spirit and these men naturally are oppose,l
 to the suffrage movement. Local ] leaders in the cause believe the
 Washington women have done more
 harm than good, and that their ac
 tions, at the least, have been ill
 advised.
