EDITORS FAVOR
WOMAN SUFFRAGE

The South Florida Press Association
in its semi-annual meeting at Winter
Haven, went on record as standing
with President Wilson in being in fav-
or Of the immediate passage of the
National Suffrage amendment and
urging the Florida representatives,
Honorable Park Trammell and Hon.
Duncan U. Fletcher to vote For the
acknowledgements of women.
The resolution was as follows:
Whereas, the members of the South
Florida Press Association have stood
with President Wilson in all things
pertaining to his conduct of the war
and,
Whereas, we have noted with APP
prevail his stand in favor of equal suf-
frage for women, who have shown
themselves to be fully as good soldiers
as men during the world war, and
because we have seen in this organs
cation excellent efforts Of women who
adorn the press Of the State,
Therefore, be it resolved, That we
stand with President Wilson in his
advocacy of Woman Suffrage and we
urge our Representatives in Congress
to vote for the enfranchisement OF
women;
BE it also resolved. That we urge
on the Legislature of Florida to sub
init this question to the people Of
the State.
with this end in view we urge that
copies of this resolution be sent to our
representatives in Congress, and to
the Speaker Of the House OF Repre-.
sentatives in Congress, and the Presi-
dent Of the Senate of Florida /.
The following editors constitute the
resolution committee submitting the
above resolution along with others

aid; Gilbert d. Leach, Leesburg Com
mercial; J. e. Worthington, Tampa

Mr.. George Goolsby is president Of
the Association.
Much interest was shown in the pas,
sage Of this resolution, endorsing the
stand President Wilson has taken
Organizations of every kind are going
on record daily asking that the ques.
ton be promptly passd by Congress
and speedily submitted to the States
for ratification. These organizations
are urging that Senator Trammell and
Senator Fletcher consider that Il one
vote is not obtained before this Dem
ocratic Congress ends. all previous
work done by the Democrats and the
President will count for naught. The
political advantage to the Republicans
would be obvious, as they in the mex,
Congress have the votes definitely
pledged for its passage, and will
make political capital OF the same.

they figured on at first. The grain
