URGING BRANDEGEE
Warns Against Misrepresentation of Sen,

ator.
 4 letter of which the following is < a. copy, signed by President Nellie NJ. Scott of the Bantam Ball Bearing Company. probably the only woman at the head of A Connecticut industry is being received by women in various sections of Litchfiela county:
 Possibly you, like myself. have re- ceived an anonymous post card headed
 Listen Women, about Brandegeer which were if not for the malicious false nitarianism-would not be worth answering.
 It is great mistake for women who have just achieved the ballot to be a par ty to such cheap politics. Before castine your ballot learn how Lonergan voted on the same issues, or whether he voted at all Know why Brandegee voted against
 the Child Labor Law in the senate and
 you will know that it was because the
 measure was not as good as Connecti- cuts own Child Labor Laws and was un- constitutional and was so decided by the supreme court of the United States six f teen months after Brandegoe voted against it.
 It is for us women to prove our right to the ballot by proving that we are
 broad-minded enough to be at least faii and honest Do not scratch candi. date because he did not want you tc have the ballot. If you are that marrow 1 you did not deserve it. Respectfully, Nellie M Scott. l Miss Scott's recent promotion to tn,
 presidency of the Bantam Ball Bear 1 ing Manufacturing Company, attract
 ed widespread attention. In fifteen years l she rose from a place as lstenographe to her present position, passing througl the grades of private secretary, secretar; 1 and treasurer and assistant to the pres Fidtnt.

WHAT THE LEAGUE
 OF NATIONS MEANS
(Continued from page D

(CoRtinued from page 1) under Article K, would be the obli- gation of the United States7 '.
 A. Our obligation would be to preserve both the territory and the independence of the threatened nation.
 Q. What action on our part would this involve?
 A. It would probably involve sending a fleet and an army abroad and might readily require the main tenarce of large and permanent police force in the threatened area.
 Q. Does the democratic party favor commitments which require our boys thus to become policemen Tn distant lands?
 A. Yes. The democratic party even approves President Wilson's proposal that we should become specifically responsible for the pro tection and development of Armenia
 Q. And yet is it not the fact that the promoters of the league of na- tions are advertising it as a peace documsnt?
 A. Yes. Candidate Cox has an halluciation of this sort. Q. Do they not also claim that under the covenant of the league of nations the old system of "balance of power" and offensive alliance" will be entirely eliminated? A. They certainly do; and 1t IS because of this claim and of the equally groundless claim that the league will prevent war that so many people have been led to approve the covenant.
 7 o. What do President Wilson and Candidate Cox mean when they keep referring to the freedom of tcongress, under Article K, ta decide whether or not to take the steps necessary to fulfill our promise?
 A. They mean thereby to per- suade Americans to make a solemn and far-reaching promise in the ex- kpectation that congress will repudi- ate the commitment if for any req son performance becomes inconven- tent.
