Disappointed. yet elated. This is
the rather unusual state of mind Of
Mrs. Champ Clark with reference to
the woman suffrage situation.
The wife OF the veteran Demo-
cratic leader and former Speaker of
the House. and herself a, pioneer
sufrragist, gave her Views to an in
.terviewer on things in general and
suffrage in particular. She admitted
she was disappointed that the
amendment giving the vote to her
sex has failed as yet Of ratification
in the thirty-sixth State. and added:

Mrs. Clark is'a fighter. That is

done in the interest OF suffrage and
by the advice she has given it's lead

"In 1912 1 was one of the few

dared to stand UP and be counted for

Wickliffe Holmes, now a leader In
the fight for ratification In Louisi-
ana, was the wife OF a member of
Congress from that State, which
was considered the most .conserva-
tive State in the union. She asked
me to tell her what argument she
should use to induce the Southern
men to be favorable to suffrage. Ny
reply was:
Tell them suffrage is. coming
whether they want II or not and
they may as well get used to it;
that they may get up and denounce
suffrage at the demand of their dis
tricts, but no man who, Is running

Mrs. Clark refuses to appropriate
