CALL.

Men of Louisiana our State is
on trial before the bar of public
opinion and the verdict will be
rendered by your vote on Novem-
Der 5. The question at issue is VIII
the men of Louisiana vote to re-
move the opinions Ia vote Is an
opinion Of their women from be-
inp rated with idiots, insane and
criminals, who constitute with
women the disfranchised classes.
Or, will we have to bow our
heads i'm shame while men from
other states remove this injustice
by National Woman suffrage
Amendment.
Woman suffrage is no longer a
theory to be debated but an Is
sue to be debated an issue to be
met. Government by Consent Is
Fundamental Democracy and ma
tional honor demands when men
are dying to establish democracy
abroad that women shall not oe
denied democracy at home.
Economic justice also demands
that women as wage earners BE
granted the protection Of the bal
lot.
The ratification Of the State
Amendment to enable women to
vote in Louisiana will vindicate
the spirit and sacrifices Of the
men who in the dark days Of
Reconstruction fought and died
tq maintain white supremacy. A
vote against the State Amend
mcnt Nov. 5 discredits these patri-
OTIS, Justifes and Vitalizes the
18th Amendment.
We urge on our people a reall- |
zation Of the issue at stake.
State Sovereignty the basic prime
ip.e upon which our government
was ratified will be DESTROYED in
the event of National Woman
Suffrage Amendment being sub
mi4ted and ratified and Centrali-
zation in government substituted.
The autocratic ideal of Hamilton
the democratic ideal of
Jefferson,
Women of Louisiana, we call
on You whether suffragists or not
to recognize woman suffrage as
and the issue now one
of methods. We ask all women
to joint us in our appeal to the
men of Louisiana to confer our
citizenship upon us by state en-
actment and not as with the ne
grnes have it come through
national mandate. Let suffragists
and the great body Of women who
have not expressed themselves
rally to preserve self-gcvernment
For the state as we attain self
government for the individual.

An appeal to the men of Lou

NEW DRIVE AGAINST GER.

drive against the German posi-
tions either in Flanders or be
tween the Disc and Soissons Il
expected by many army officers
here as a result of the slowing uT

theater. ~'
Outlining the situation at his
mid-week conference with news
paper men today, General March,
chief of staff, confined his state
ments to pointing out that the
Germans have now been forced
back until they are not within
fifty miles Of Paris at any point.
The head Of the army has prev
iously laid stress on the fact.
however, that the greatest ad-
vantage won by Marshal Foch in
a military way is in having
wrested the initiative from the
enemy.
The opinion prevailed among
other officers that the present
struggle around Roye and Las
signy would soon terminate In the
capture Of these points. to be fol-
lowed by the taking of Noyon.
They agree with the commenta-
tors abroad that all signs indi-
cate the enemy intends to with
dra wand is fighting fierely
rear-guard actions only to cover
his retirement and to permit him
to prepare strong lines in his rear
on which to stand fast.
In the course of his discussion,
General March said General
Pershing has 1,250,000 American
troops organized into the First
Army Corps. Presumably the
Americans on the British left
flank in Picardy identified by the
chief Of staff as the 131st infan
try of the thirty-third illinois
National Guard) division, are
among the men still brigaded for
training.
It appeared possible to some Of
ficers the organization of the
First American Army might be
followed by an all-American at
tack at some point on the line
which it holds beyond verdun,
where there has been no recent
fighting. No reports. official or
unofficial, have been received

General Pershing's plans or the

The primary points of the two
strokes the Allies have struck
have been realized.
Along the Aisne and in Picardy,
the attacks were defensive meas.

menace Of the two wedges the
enemy had driven in that direc-
ton. The value Of the drives in
this respect was pointed out by
General March today.
