To the Editor OF The Times Dispatch:
Dear Sir.-In recent letter cnti-
tied Equal Suffrage In Germany" a
gentleman from Highland Springs tries
Ia explain the granting of the suffrage
to German women on the grounds OF
equality of the sexes as far as labor
is concerned" lie says IL is a we'll
known fact that it has been custom
airy for women III Germany TO manipu-
late the pillow and work in factories.

different.
] would like to call his attention to
the fact that since the war we have
had armies Of farneretteS doing the
la borious farm work; that we have wo-
men in the dangerous munition plants.
and that the Pennsylvania Railroad
has employed hundreds of women in
o"cralls to do heavy work.
TO be consistent he ought TO approve
of woman suffrage In the United States
as equality of labor has been the rule
for the last few years He says that
in America 'womanhood has been pro-
iected by attending to home duties"
Does he realize that the census Of 1910
says that 1.43S,l5G women in New York
State work for wages out Of II total
OF 3,29l,Tli women in the State. and
that the war has tremendously in

T is one thing to exact an indemnity from

desolated, but it is quite another thing to
