Anna Howard Shaw spoke in the as
sembly hall Of the Claypool hotel on
the opening evening of the annual con-
vention Of the Woman's Franchise
League of Indiana. The room was
built to hold 500 persons comfortably; /;
but about 800 were there that evening.
Mrs. Richards Edwards of Peru, presi-
dent of the franchise league, thought

her position on the stage she sent a
message to Miss Adah Bush, of Kent

Miss Bush left the room for few
minutes. When she returned she sent
up to Mrs. Edwards the message:

Institute at the High School.
Miss Read, who is lawyer, said that
out OF the peace treaty to be arranged
soon. undoubtedly arrangements would
be made that would properly protect
and safeguard the interests OF the alien.
and thus bring about a stronger bond
between this country and others, in
which in addition to protecting those
who Come to this country, the rights OF
American citizens would be respected In
other countries.
Miss Read devoted much time TO de-
tails Of laws regarding aliens here and
In other countries. One OF the laws
passed by Germany in 1918 gave a Ger
man the right to obtain naturalization
here, but by obtaining a paper from his
home country before doing so. he could
return TO Germany and enjoy all OF his
former rights the same as though he
had never obtained citizenship here.
One point the speaker emphasized was
mat American laws had nothing 10 do
with those Of other countries and that
there were few countries that had
treaties with this country that afforded
Americans rights they enjoyed at home
Aliens coming here are subject 10 citv
state and Federal laws and for that real

rIgnls ana privileges of American citi-

zens. Some States have laws prohibit
Ing aliens from holding liquor licenses.
from owning property, from working
on civil service Jobs and from working
on government and municipal contracts.
One Of the greatest benefactlons that
could be reached for the alien, Miss
Read said, would be to devise some plan
whereby an alien could be informed
about laws, that he often broke because
Of ignorance.
She decried the practice in some
States Of imposing on the foreigner
through quack doctors, shyster law
yers and other forms OF deception. The
alien could not become a good citizen
while such practices were permitted.
out Of the peace treaties Miss Read
said, undoubtedly would come laws that
would arrange for international recog-
milton OF naturalization and citizenship,
that would mutually benefit all.
