The question whether the women citi-
zens Of the United States will be per-
mitted to vote in the next presidential
election or whether all Of them shall
vote in the primaries, some OF which
will be held as early as next March.
was answered by Miss Alice Paul, ma

woman's Party, in statement read
yesterday at a meeting of the Pennsyl-

Chancellor street.
The statement follows:
"It is up to the Republicans. The fact
that the Democrats, by refusing the last
two votes in the Senate, held up the
passage of the amendment for more than
a year, makes us hesitate to count our
ratification votes until they are cast.
If Republican governors will act there
is no question but the amendment will
be passed promptly.
Six Have Not Acted

states which have not acted. In four
