FOR CITIZENS LEABUE

An enthusiastic meeting of women

South for her work In the directloh ~
the women's forces for the blperty loaa
campaigns last year n her Worh WIZ
the Red Cross, made the principal ad-
dress. ~.
Mrs, Phillips said she had made put
one political fspeech in her life n that
was during the present week, n that
she knew nothing about politics, put
that she and thousands of other women
want a clean city, morally and political
w and want the laws enforced. She
said she had studied the characters ani
records OF the men who are candidates
for office in the coming election ana
was confident that in the principles
OF the Citizens league and in the can
didates Of the league, the women can
find assurance that the things they
stand for will become realities.
Rowlett Paine, candidate for mayor
addressed the women briefly, setting
forth his ideas of good government; ano
the needs OF Memphis for a moral clean
IN, better schools, to be secured througf
larger supplies OF funds, n~eighborhood
markets and other things in which
women have a vital interest.
Charles r. Shannon, candidate fol
| commissioners Of accounts and reve'
| nues, said that he believed the womei
are going to vote almost solidly Tor TIT
principles Of the Citizens league, ant
not for another political administra'
ton with all that stands for,
He took occasion 10 say that tn
| charges that former Mayor Crump en-
gineered the nominations Of the Citi
Gems league ticket, and was PERSONAL,
directing their campaign were false, al
though Mr.. Crump is personally sup
porting the ticket, in preference to tina
named personally by MIR. Williams, q
