FINLAND: WHERE WOMEN
WON VOTE BY HELPING
SETTLE A STRIKE

Victory for woman suffrage in the
United States adds interest to the ex-
periences of Finland. where women
won the franchise by their part in quiz
citing labor troubles similar to those
which now asSail the United States.
Incidentally, Finland was one of the
first portions Of the old Russian EN-
pire TO set up constitutional govern
ment.
The advent and progress of suffrage
In Finland Is described in a com.nuni-
cation to the National Geographic So
ciety by Baroness Aletta Korff as fol-
lows:
"From an educational point of view
the women Of Finland have been very
fortunate. as there are many excellent
schools for girls and a number Of CO.
educational schools throughout the
country which prepare students for
the university examinations. Girls
were admitted to the university in
ISIS, and. until the war interviewed.

Rumania protested bitterly against

and tells the interesting story Of their
introduction there.

growth of the reindeer enterprise in
