|WITHIs5N NOMEN ofIOyDAAYS

The recent municipal primary
vote granted the white women Of
Atlanta, Ga, the right OF equal suf-
frage. This is the second city of
Georgia, a state supposed to be
locked and barred against equal
suffrage, to grant city primary sur
frage TO women. There was only
one dissenting voice when the Dem
ocratic party committee of Atlanta
bestowed the right on the white
women.
Miss Eleanor Raoul, a young
woman law student in Atlanta and
q former member of the National
American Woman Suffrage associ-
alton S.research bureau, was one Of
the most ardent workers for the
cause. She campaigned for the
women and here is~what she said
at the close of the fight:
mo speeches were made against
suffrage and the whole atmosphere
Nwere cordial and pleasant. This
was quite a surprise to me as !
have not been in close touch with
suffrage work since l left the ma
tional office and l expected the kind
of reception that l had formerly
been familiar with. All the men
had just as good a time as when
they were against suffrage and II
they had known how easy it was
and how pleased they were going
to feel with themselves they would
never have let the grass grow IN
der their feet as they did"
Theoretically we have obtained
a small share of what we should
have, but practically we have, as
far as municipal politics goes,
