Ject male or female, who Is of the

date at Dominion election" according
to the terms of an amendment to the
Elections Act brought before the House
for second reading by ]. A. Calder to-
day. A law giving women equal fran
chise rights was carried earlier In the
session. The amendment was intro
duced primarily to provide for bye
elections. and the Government takes op-
portunity to raise tine political status
OF women. Being q Government meas
ure, 1t Is assured OF passage in the
House. but the attitude of the Senate
toward women members of Parliament
remains to be tested.
The new legislation also renewed an
old issue in Canadian politics by accept
ing the provincial lists where they have
been prepared within one year i'm
mediately preceding the issue Of tho
writ for such bye-elections. The old
Conservative policy was to prepare
special lists by Federal. officials The
Unionists have evidently effected an
agreement on an important cause OF
contention in former elections.
One interesting feature of the amend
r7ent is that any woman voter born on
the continent Of North America" does
not become denaturalized by marriage
to an allen. thus recognizing right in her
own name and person. Military de-
