SIXTEEN STATES HAVE VOTED
 FOR SUFFRAGE

Ratification of the Federal Sur- fra=o Amendment b,- Minnesota and New Hampshire brings up the mum ber of states that have now ratified to sixteen
 The Legislatures of two of the Southern StatcS-Ceorgi0 and Ala bama--have come into regular ses- sion since the Amendment was sub ralrted; but both these states have re- fused to raGfy.
 Tn spite therefore of the strong pressure brought by the Pr sident and by the Chairman of the Ma Ittonal Democratic Committee, the Democrats so far have made bad showing nationally. This is in con trast to the support that the Demo crats cr Connecticut are giving to tha amendment, and 1t looks as though the Connecticut Democrats would be able to make a much more successful appeal to the newly enfranchised wo- men voters in this state than in any other part of the country.
 In most stRtes, except Connecticut the RepubliCoa Party is making a stron- bid for the favor of the wo- men.
