Who CAN VOTE
AMONG women?
Wife of Naturalized For
eigner Qualified, Deputy
Attorney-General Says
QUESTION RIGHT OF
HOLDING OFFICE

In reply 10 questions repeatedly
asked him since the ratification OF
the woman suffrage amendment by
Tennessee, Deputy Attorney General
p. Warren Green has given out the
following statement as 10 women
qualified 10 vote:
Every woman born IN tpe United
states can vote.
Foreign born children OF a citizen
are themselves citizens and \. Is i'm
material whether the parents are
citizens by birth or naturalization and
are eligible TO vote.
The citizenship Of a wife Is that OF
her husband during her marriage, and
women may become ciuDens OF the
United states by marriage without
naturalization. Under the United
States revised statutes, a woman who
marries a citizen Of the United States
and who herself be lawfully natural
lied to be deemed a citizen, irreSpcct-
i've Of the time or place OF the mar
riage OF the residence Of the paniies.
10 is immaterial whether the husband
is oi.izen by birth or naturalization,
nor is Il essential that the citizenship
OF the husband existed at the time OF
the marriage.
Following che question of women
voting there now arises that OF wo-
men holding office. The problem Is
regarded as most complex and de
pends upon Sta.e statutes entirely
