Whether tire women voters are en-
TREY n sympathy with tire plans Of
Secretary Lane Is not apparent. since
the series Of talks are given by men
and women ot conflicting views and
opposing parties and followed by open
discussion Both Republican and
Democratic senators speak and
sentiment IN favor Of the League Of
Women Voters is claimed from men
CT both parties. Senator Kendrick,
the granting Of suffrage in whose
state fWyoming) was the occasion Of
the jubilee convention az which the
league was formed, has written Mrs.
ratt that if the discussion al the
saint Louis convention is an indica-
i!on Ct the subjects which women are
going 70 take up he is more en-.
thusiast!c than ever for woman suf-
frage
The subjects follow closely those
problems related to the following

Mrs Gait ard adopted by the league:
