WOMAN N'SR|GHTS
MARGIN NARROW
SWITCH OF ONE VOTE WOULD
HAVE DEFEATED IN THE
HOUSE

WASHINGTON-W suffrage by
in the house Thursday night with ex-
actly the required number of affirma-
tive votes.
While members in their seats and
throngs in the galleries waited with
eager interest, the house, adopted by
a vote of 274 to 1876 resolution pro-
viding for submission to the states
of of the so-called Susan B. Anthony
amendment for national enfranchise-
ment of women.
But for the promise of Speaker
Clark to cast his vote from the chair
for the resolution if it was needed,
the change Of a single vote to the
opposition would have meant defeat.
Republican Leader Mann, who came
from a Baltimore hospital where he
has been under treatment ever since
congress convened, and Representa-
tive Simms of Tennessee, just out OF
a sick bed and hardly able to walk
to his seat, brought the votes which
settled the issue.
The house hardly had adjourned
before the suffrage champions began
their fight for favorable action on the
senate side of the capitol. Recent
polls there have indicated that the
necessary two-thirds vote could not
be mustered, but encouraged by the
house victory and counting upon the
influence of President Wilson, who
came to their support last night, the
suffragists hope to bring the senate
into line so as to have the amendment
before the state legislatures during
the coming year. They feel sure at
least Of forcing a vote in the senate
before the present session ends.

senators of both parties who did not
agree with the generally favorable
view of war preparations depicted by
the secretary in his statement of

statement that war supplies were ade-
