THE SUFFRAGE BILL
PASSES HOUSE BY
A NARROW MARGIN
Powell Joint Resolution Almost Goes
on the Rocks in the House of
Representatives Tuesday
MEASURE RECEIVES BUT ONE
MAJORITY ON FINAL PASSAGE
Announcement Of Result Brings Forth
Burst of Applause from the Advo-
Gates Of Votes for Wo-
men" in the Lobby

Tuesday was field day in the Louis
lana House Of Representative and the
Powell joint resolution proposing an
amendment to the constitution grant
ing the right of suffrage to women of
the state passed that body by the mar
row margin of one vote the result OF
the roll call being 80 yeas, % nays and
Is absent. OF the New Orleans dele
cation fifteen voted for the bill, five
voted against and four were absent. z
OF the st. Landry delegation two,
Eastman and Sanders, voted yea while
Dupre was against.
It was a close shave for the bill and
would undoubtedly have been beaten
IL Mayer Behrman of New Orleans had
NOT come to the rescue and persuaded
several of the New Orleans members
to vote with the yeas According to
a newspaper dispatch, several Of the
city members refused to swallow the
bill and voted nay It required a vote
Of two-thirds of all members elected
in order to carry the measure through
anho1n cement of the speaker
chat tie bfi ad fInalI psssed Lea
a burst Of applause from the women
and men advocates of the measure
who stood without the rail waiting
for the calling Of the long roll. The
sponsor Of the bill. Powell of Beaure
gard, on moving its final passage,
warned the opponents that their oppo-
sition would amount to nothing and
advised that they keep very still and
lei. the measure go up against the roll
call His advice was needed and there
was no preliminary debate, the speak
er simply ordering the clerk to call
the roll The fate of the bill in the
senate Is problematical and If there
is any opposition Of a positive nature
in that body It may require some tall
work to marshal the required two
thirds majority to get it through the
legislative grist mill
The anti-poker bill by Sanders OF
St. Landry went into the scrap heap
when the long roll was called, the
measure failing to receive the cons
titutional majority, the vote being 40
yeas and 81 nays. The bill authorized
police juries to pass ordinances pro
hfbiting gambling by the use OF cards,
dice or other devices. The introducer
changed his vote and entered a motion
to reconsider in an attempt to save the
bill from the junk pile.
Tuesday was the last day for the
introduction of bills without the con-
sent of the rules committee says a
dispatch; there was flood Of meas
ures in both senate and house. At the
adjournment Of the lower house that
day the records showed that thre hun
dred and ninety-one bills had been In
troduced since the beginning Of the
session last month

The figures reached The Clarion this

shows that, like Board No. l, the to-

be remembered that there we're two
more negroes than whites in Board

. there are eight more negroes than
whites, the figures being 121 whites

This registration adds considerably

his father and mother, Mr.. and Mrs.
N. L. White, a unique souvenir from
the fighting lines across the seas.
Some time ago he sent a rug taken
from a captured German vessel and
this time the souvenir is in the shape
of small piece ripped from a destroy
ed German lairplane. The cloth is ca
moufIaged In four colors pink, blue,
green and yellow. and while apparent

be hard pushed for first class material
for airplane construction. Young
White penned a brief letter to his
mother on one side Of this souvenir.
The letter follows:
