REPUBLICANS PLAN TO
GRANT WOMAN SUFFRAGE

Suffrage for all American women
for the 1920 elections is foreshadowed
in a statement authorized by SEN
ator Charles Curtis OF Kansas. the
Republican whip. Senator Curtis
said THAT both houses will pass the
amendment as soon as they re
convene.
Following this announcement, SUI
rage leaders declared that the mo-
ment the suffrage amendment is
passed t,ey will begin drive for its
ratification by all the legislatures
which may then be in session, and
will urge the calling of special ses-
sions in other states. so that the
amendment may be quickly ratified.
This would insure the voting OF
women in all states in the Union
in the next presidential contest,
Senator Curtis made his state
ment after an extensive tour which
has convinced him that there is no
reason to doubt that the amendment
will pass.
