sorts of new and unexpected phases crop up
every day, so that the work is never monoto-
nous.
For instance, there was the case of woman
who was married to an Italian with whom she
had not lived for twelve years. At the time
that she had left him he had taken no steps
toward citizenship, and she was anxious to
learn whether he had become citizen in the
Interim as she wanted to use ner new preroga-

gentleman in question, and we called upon him
at his fruit stand just around the corner. He
informed US with great pride that he had just
taken out his second naturalization papers, and
he sent his compliments to his wife and his
congratulations on her becoming a citizen.
This simpler than the one of

born, married to Russian gentleman of whose
fate she blissfully ignorant, as she had

This is the great Socialist district. the cele
brated 9TH Assembly District, which in tho
recent election poled the largest majority
for suffrage of any Assembly district in the
state. Here it is considered an honor to be
a citizen and places one on a very high rung
of the social ladder. It is the last cry in class
distinction. We saw very amusing instancs
of this in house way down near the Ease
River
Mrs. Wolnsky and Mrs. Kaufman were in
dulging in their daily alteration in the mar
row hall which separates their respective ten
ements, and the stairs and halls from cellar
to roof were lined with interested spectators.
The battle was almost over and we were jusc

In point of fact, the Woman's Suffrage party
went into this campaign with its eyes wide
open, and you may be sure that they did not
overlook tae education of those 100000
alien women when they were laying out
their plans for future activities. Moreover, the
last election returns were barely in before they
set to work on this problem.
To educate two hundred thousand ignorant
women so that by next November they will be
qualified to go to the polls and cast an honest,
intelligent vote is a herculean task Aside
from lteracy there are all sorts of other
difficulties to overcome. In the first place there
is the natural shyness of the peasant woman;
her ignorance of anything outside the four
walls of her home Ignorance which is the in
heritance Of generations) the opposition of
male relatives to anything that tends toward
the enlightenment of their women; the lack of
time for study the difficulty of leaving small
children alone in the house while the mother
goes to citizenship classes, and so forth and so
on. 1t seems hopeless enough when you first
realize what It means, but wnen you remember
that the the Woman's Suffrage Association has
wonderfully equipped organization, the full
power of which can be turned upon this work,
things begin to look a little brighter.
Furthermore the Woman's Suffrage party
in its various campaigns has canvassed very
thoroughly all the foreign districts and is per-
fectly familiar with the conditions there, be-
sides which it has for this work the help and
cooperation of the social settlements and
churches and schools of the neighborhood.
California and other Western states where
the women have the right to vote have mad
10 thrash out the same problem, albeit on a
mailer scale, and it has been their experience
hat the only way to reach these foreign born
Rsmen is by house-to-house canvass. So that
is the nlodus operandi of the committee of the
Woman's Suffrage Association which is taking
Charge of this branch of the suffrage work

I'VE want women who are not afraid to hold
a teething baby and who can tell the mother
how to take the rust spot out of Rachel's Sun
day frock. It's the personal element that we
must put into it," said one of the district lead
ers. settlement workers are the best helpers,
of course, but there are hundreds of other
women who have the human understanding
sympathy which necessary for this work.
We want those women and we want them right
now! Tell them that it's war work. because
these foreig ign women are talking among them
selves against the war and sowing seeds of
discomfort and discord just because they are so
ignorant about this country and what it stands
for that they don't understand in the least why
we are in this at all. 1t is our Job, there
fore. not only to make intelligent voters of
them but patriotic citizens as we'll On, it's
war work all right"
In every one of these Assembly districts an
information centre has been established, either
in the neighborhood settlement or in the parish
house, or sometimes in political clubroom
where the women Of the district can meet on
certain evenings in the week for instruction in
citizenship. Already twenty-five of these CEN
tres have been opened, but these, of course,
cater only to the needs of the Englsh-speak-
ing women. For the others there are evening
classes where English is taught.
1t is only matter of time before our natu-
ralization laws will be amended to suit the new
conditions which the enfranchisement of women
has brought about, but at present these laws
weird and wonderful November will be
here before we know it, and as nothing can be
done toward changing these laws before that
crucial day, when two hundred thousand for
eign-born women march to the polls and fill out
a ballot, it behooves US to work with all our
might to help these women to knowledge of
what it all means.
