Though some have complained
that the convention did not solve the

were representatives direct from
the newest states. such as Lettonia
and Lithuania. Egypt and China
appointed dele cations, but they fall

The congress became very popular
with the Swiss people and the pub

Swiss association hopes to push
women suffrage through on the
crest Of the present wave of suf-

by a referendum OF the men voters.

in Palestine and spokesman
for the Great Sanhedrim or su-

The modern Gamaliel is spokes-

party. His full name is W. Ga
