CAMIOUFLaGING BEHIND 49,.
PRES. WILSON
The Democratic party now is try
in to camouflage its inherent and
unalterable opposition to Woman
Suffrage by sending out millions Of
copies of President Wilson's adj
dress before the United States Sem
ate in support of 1t.
The big thing Is not that Presi-
dent Wilson spoke in favor of equal
suffrage but that 81 members of his
own party refused to pay the least
attention either to his public ad-
dress or his personal appeals to them
in behalf of giving women the right
to vote and defeated the resolution
which would have submitted the wo-
man suffrage amendment to the
Constitution to the several states for
ratification.
The hope of Woman Suffrage Is
in a epublican Congress-, free from
Southern domination.
