Action of Gcorgia's LcSislatiy,
Body.


The Georgia Legislature failed to
ratify the Federal Amendment. At
ter eleven overwhelming victories in
rapid succession during the past
thirty days Georgia is the first state
to reject the proposed amendment.
This is deplorable action on the part
OF the Georgia legislators especially
as there is a strong pro-suffrage SEN
timent in the state Atlanta women
already vote in municipal elections.
Can it be that the Georgia Solons
opposed the bill on the ground of
that threadbare, antiquated argu-
ment of the race question? Perhaps
if they could have heard a message
from that sweet faced, gentle voiced
Southerner, Mrs. Percy V. Penny
hacker Of Texas, the Georgia legisla-
tors would have seen the question in
2 new light. Mrs Pcnnybacker. for

man of brilliant attainments, who
though an ardent suffragist is first
of all Southern woman. She points
out that the Fifteenth Amendment
or Woman Suffrage Amendment
does not propose to enfranchise any
one, but only seeks to remove the
limitation as to sex. The South has
always handled her own franchise,
