resignation Mr.. Sauter refused 10 give
any reasons, saying the reason did not
interest the public.
Those on the "inside" say the I'M

or standard time, nobody was pres
ent to receive the women until {
O'Clock, Wilmington time except Mr.
Sauter, who, It is said spent a Jolly
hour explaining to the women that
Z o'clock was really s O'Clock.
About o'clock the other delegates
began TO arrive, the meeting was
called 10 order, and the delegation
given a hearing on the proposed cur.
few law. There was considerable dis.
cusSion pro and con, which finally
ended in the tabling OF a resolution
to endorse the proposed law. 1t wa:

The atmosphere was cleared late

publican party, denying he had made
statements in the course OF a speech
at Washington on Tuesday that could
be construed as rejecting on the Del

what he did say in his Washington

Mr.. Hays statement reads
1.-THE Republican organization is
doing everything it can consistently
and honestly do IN Delaware to urge
ratification. It has done all 1t can
consistently do everywhere. The Re
publican National Committee unani-
mOusly passed a resolution in Janu-
airy, 1919. urging Congress to pass and
all Republican Legislature to ratify
the amendment, and in December,
1919, again unanimously urged the
Republican Legislatures 20 ratify.
mo committee, National or State,
controls the Legislatures Of the States
Legislatures are not carried around
in mems pockets. Legislatures arc
not handled, coerced or bought.
Certainly you would not suggest
any effort to try TO use undue or inn
proper pressure TO assist the action
OF any Legislature2
-The members Of these Republican
Legislatures are all self-determinine
agents elected by their constituency
and reporting to them and are giving
most serious thought to this matter
Republicans everywhere hope. for the
ratification in Delaware"
Indications now are that the Legis-
