St. Louis, Feb. I2.-Separste
organizations of women voters
do not appeal to Will H. Hays,
chairman of the Republican
National Committee. Speaking
at the luncheon of the Repub-
lican's city committee today,
Mr.. Hays announced his dis
approval of the League of
Women Voters which has been
planned to take the place of
the Woman's Suffrage League.
"a woman belonging to this
league" he said, would be like
pea in a silo. She would be
rafting around with no objec-
tive. Women should affiliate
with one of the big political
parties and work for some def
mite aim. They are not to be
separated or segregated. Their
rights of participation in the
management of the affairs of
the Republican party must be
equally sacred and sacredly
equal to those Of men"
