PRESIDENT TO THE RESCUE


A Washington dispatch says: Pres
ident Wilson last night threw his
support to the Federal amendment
for woman suffrage. On the eve Of 4
vote on suffrage in the House twelve
Democratic members called at the
White House with word that many
of their colleagues wanted advice
from the head of their party as -
the position they should take There
was a conference OF forty minutes.
the result of which was described in
this statement, dictated by the Pres.
ident himself and made public by the
delegation: THE committee found
that the President had not felt at lib
erty to volunteer his advice to mem
bers of Congress in this important
matter, but when we sought his adj
vice he very frankly and earnestly
advised us to vote for the amendment
as an act of right and justice TO the
women of the country and OF The
world" In these few lines suffrage
champions saw certain VICTOR where
q few days ago most of them private
