WOMEN TO HAVE
ACTIVE PART IN
G. 0. P. AFFAIRS
Organization of Party Dis
cussed by Hays Before
Women S Committee.
CIV Associated Press,

WASHINGTON, May 22-Important
subjects dealing with party organizar
ton were discussed at Republican
conference here today under the aus
pices Of the Republican women's ma
tional executive committee. VIII H
Hays, chairman Of the Republican ma
tiona1 committee, In an address out
lining the part to be played by women
In the affairs of the party under the
recently adopted plan, asserted the
women were not to be given secondary
consideration but would get the full
consideration due all other individuals
In the party.
Reports on organization work pre-
paratory to the next campaign were
heard from representatives of three
groups OF states-Mrs. Florence Por-
ter Of California, speaking for the
states In which women have complete
franchise; Mrs. Margaret Hill McCar-
ter. OF Kansas, for the partially en-
franchised states, and Miss Maude A.
Wetmore, OF Rhode Island, for the un-
franchised group.
There is but one possible rule for a
political party" said Chairman Hays
in his address, "and that is that the
rights of the individual membership to
participate in the management Of the
party's affairs must be and remain
equally sacred and sacredly equal. The
Republican women in this country are
part of the party membership. In
many states this has long Been so.
Units In Membership.
They come into this party activity
not as women but as voters, entitled to
participate and participating insofar
i as the present legal limitations per.
NIT, just as other voters. Their &C:
t1vity is not supplementary, or secon.
dary at all-they are units In the party
membership, and where the suffrage
tor them is new they come in Just as
men have come in when they have
reached the legal voting age They are
not to be separated or segregated a,
all, but assimilated and amalgamated
| with just that full consideration due
every working member of the party in
the rights of their full citizenship.
There is to be no separate women's
organization created within the party
! except and only in those cases where
such an arrangement may be needed
temporarily as an efficient instrument
in the aid Of the complete amalgama
ton which is our objective"
The conference will close tonight
with a dinner at which Mrs. Medil
Mccormick, wife of Senator McCor
mick of Illinois, will preside with
Chairman Hays. Speaker Gil1ett of the
house. and Senator Cummins Of Iowa

room and the door open. They thought
this unusual and when they tried the
door of the bathroom they found it
locked
When the lock was broken, Mrs
Duffy was found dead in the bath-tub.
1t was thought at first she had been
drowned The police and Fire Chief
Miller went to the Bond home with a
pulmotor, but found this of no avail.
Mrs. Duffy was widow. She is
survived by son, who is an instruct
or in the agricultural department of
Wisconsin University. Mrs. Duffy
had made arrangements to go to live
with her son in Madison. She was a
member of the First Christian church
of this city.

ers, George Newbern Of Dayton, and
Ollie Newbern of New Paris.
