The coming generation must solve
them. The coming generation must
meet. contend with, adjust itself to

Status Of the Suffrage
Bill In Congress

Today the federal suffrage amend
ment Is in position of crucial
moment in both houses of Congress.
After months of the maddening delay
incident to being smothered in com
mittee, the House Judiciary Commit
tee finally reported the bill, without
recommendation. This cleared the
way for the Rules Committee to secure
place for it on the Houses calendar
of business. In the Senate the bill
has been favorably reported from the
suffrage committee and is already on
the Senate's calendar OF business
awaiting action. Action means going
to vote. By the time this is read
1t will be known, in all probability,
whether the Gath Congress, by voting
aye on the measure, is to be the body
that will go down in history as the
instrument of the enfranchisement of
women, or whether it elects to pass
on that high privilege to its successor,
the 65th.

mary is as follows:
Q) Suffrage for men and suffrage
for women in other lands, with few
and minor exceptions. has been grant.

referenda. Practically the same
method is provided by our Federal
Constitution. To deny its benefits
to the women of this country is to
Americans.
(2) Congress determines condi-

situations fix qualifications of vot-
ers. In no instance has the foreign
immigrant been forced to plead with
a vast electorate for his vote To
deny American women as easy a pro-
cess of securing their vote as has
been granted to men is a discrimina-
ton so fragrant and intolerable that
no fair-minded man should be a party
to it.
t3) The Constitutions of many
states have provided for amendment
by such difficult processes that they
either have never been amended or
have not been amended when the sub.
ject is in the least controversial
Woman suffrage is caught in the coils
of constitutional technicalities. Not

it fair chance before the country

by every other country as national

of the land who are self-respecting
enough to want a vote ask square
