Miss Alice Paul is, or should be,
known the country over for her
long, hard fight in behalf Of the
suffrage question. 1t was somewhere
back in 1918 that Miss Paul first
came into the public eye in connec-
ton with woman's suffrage. She
was leader of the suffragists who
began their fight for an amendment
t. the u. S. constitution, providing
for equal suffrage. Since that time
she has been active every minute
for "the cause" She did picket duty
at the White house, was arrested
during her picketing period and had
many other experiences during that
time, and fey of them were pleas
ant ones.
Now with the cry, Votes by
1920" she has turned the full force
of the National Woman's party into
the fight for the immediate ratifica-
ton of the suffrage amendment
Susan B. Anthony prophesied
that American women would vote in
1920. 1t is the centenary of her
birth and we propose to celebrate it
by fulfilling her prophecy" Miss
Paul claims.
Miss Paul, who halls from New
Jersey, is a graduate of Swarth-
mo- college and has an NJ. A and
Phi D. degree from the University of
Pennsylvania. She is also a gradu-
ate of the New York School of
PHILANTHROPY, and studied at the
Universities of Birmingham and
London, England. She has been
chairman of the congressional COM
mittee of the National American
Woman Suffrage association and
Pennsylvania State Woman Suf-
frage association.
In summing up the present situa-
ton, Miss Paul said:
There are only two states which
cannot ratify in time for the 1920
elections-FIorida and Tennessee.
In these, the constitutions require
that an election intervene between
the submission of an amendment
and action on it. In addition to the
states which have already ratified,
special sessions have been called in
Missouri, Texas and Iowa, while
regular sessions are scheduled to
meet next January in Kentucky,
Maryland, Mississippi, New Jersey,
Rhode Island, South Carolina and
Virginia Reconstruction problems
will demand the calling of special
sessions in many other states be-
fore the year is over"
