Chairman Cothran's Opinion.

Greenville, August 1S.-That wo-
men of South Carolina will be unable
to vote in the Democratic primary
August 81, but that women complying
with the registration laws can vote IN
the general election in November, was
the statement today of Thomas T.
Cothran, chairman of the state Demo-
cratic executive committee and speak
er of the house of representatives,
apropos of the ratification of the 18TH
amendment by the Tennessee legisla-
ture.
In statement tonight, Mr.. Cothran
expressed the opinion that it is nee
essary to call a special session of the
legislature to make this states elec-
ton laws conform with the 18th
amendment.
Speaking as chairman of the state
executive committee, Mr.. Cothran
said:
s'The expediency of calling the con-
vention together depends primarily
upon it's power to make provision Tor
women to vote in the primary elec-
ton, ordered for August 81. It this
could be done either by providing for
their enrolment or by postponing the
election, I would do all in my power
to give full efficacy to the adoption
of the 18th amendment. 1t must be
remembered that the rules Of the
party are not only of conventional
adoption, but of statutory enactment.
The act of 1915 has enacted as part
of the statute law of the state the
rules which have been adopted by the
convention The rules as adopted by
the convention can not abrogate or
amend the statute of the state

WOMEN AND THE BALLOT.
How Suffrage Amendment Affects
South Carolina.

No amendment to the election laws
of South Carolina will be necessary III
order to allow women to vote IN the
general election in November accord
ing tn an opinion of Attorney General
Wolfe rendered Wednesday IN re-
sponse to an inquiry from Governor
Cooner "The amendment (Anthony)
will be adequate in itself to confer the
right without the necessity Of an en-
abling act' says the attorney general
in his opinion.
.'The amendment when ratified and
duIv so declared by the proper au-
thorities will have the effect of simply
eliminating from section 3, article 2
of the South Carolina Constitution the
word male and so enlarging the right
of suffrage under our constitutional
and statutory law as to include all
citizens possessing the requisite
qualifications, irrespective Of SEX the
opinion continues.
What action will be taken with re-
gard to the primaries to be held TINS
month is still problematical. Attor-
ney General Wolfe was in ST. Louis
yesterday and Assistant Attorney
Morris C. Lumpkin said that no re-
quest for an opinion as regarded the
primaries had been made. He ant1cl-
pated that such a request would be
made within few days.
It has been held by some that 1t
will be necessary to call a Democratic
convention in order to open the books
of enrolment, thus permitting wo-
men to vote in the primaries. Others
take the view, that the time for clos
ing the Democratic clug rolls has al
ready arrived and passed. The ques-
tion of whether or not an amendment
to the election laws of this state
would be necessary in case another
state ratified the Anthony amendment
was raised some time ago by Thomas
P. Cothran, chairman of the state
Democratic convention in letter to
Governor Cooper.
Mr.. Wolfe's opinion directed to
Governor Cooper, is as follows:
ssDear Sir:
Replying to your inquiry relative
to the necessity for calling special
session Of the ger: III assembly for
the purpose of obviating any danger
of the invalidity of our election laws,
or hazard to our electoral vote in the
event of a ratification of the 18th
amendment to the federal constitu-
tion, 1 advise that under the authori-
tr of Neal VS.. Delaware, 1O3 .. S.,
$50; Ex Parte Varbrough 10 U. S.,
651; aud Quinn and Beal VS.. United
States, 238 U. S., 347, the proposed
amendment, when ratified and duly
so declared by the proper authority,
will have had the effect of simply
eliminating from section 3, article 2
of the South Carolina constitution,
the word male, and so enlarging the
right of suffrage under our constitu-
tional and statutory law as to include
all citizens possessing the requisite
qualifications, irrespective of sex.
Under the above cited authorities the
amendment will be adequate in it.
self to concur the right without the
necessity of an enabling act.
"Proper provision, of course, must
be afforded for registration. This can
be done by such means as appears
most expedient in the circumstances" "

general rule of construction OF statute
would require that words importing
the masculine gender should include
the female, this rule could not be IN
voked to include those not only con-
templated but disqualified at the time
of it's adoption.
"2. The rules provide limit of
time for the enrolment of voters.
Rule - declares that the fourth
Tuesday of July shall be the last day
of enrolment and that the stub books
shall then close. This being pro-
vision of the statute as we'll as of the
rules, it is inconceivable to me that
the statute can be abrogated or
amended by any action of the con-
vention.
s3. The rules provide that after
the rolls have been purged no name
shall be- added without the order of
Judge. The purging of the rolls must
be accomplished within ten days prior
to the election. It will be done either
by Friday or Saturday of this week.
The exception, by order of a judge,
plainly refers to one whose legal right
to be enrolled has been denied at a
time when the timely application and
the compliance with other conditions
he ha6 such right.
ss4. The time for holding the elec-
ton is fixed by statute. That being
so it seems idle to argue that the
suggested action of the convention to
postpone the date Of the election
would be justified in the teeth of the
statute.
Does Not Apply.
sT do not think that the 10Th
amendment was intended or is appli-
cable to party primary elections, but
if it should be so held, and the dis
elimination against the female sex
contained in the rules should be abro-
gated, the other objections as to en-
rollment by a certain time and the
date of the election, which provisions
are not discriminatory, will stand as
insuperable barriers.
''These are expressed as my indi-
vidua1 opinion which will prevent the
exercise by me of my official preroga-
tive to convoke the committee to con-
slider the matter, which, however, may
be done under the rules by a certain
proportion of the committee
Speaking, not as chairman of the
executive committee but merely as a
lawyer, Mr.. Cothran gave this view
of the amendment:
II do not think that this is at all
necessary. The 10Th amendment does
not confer upon women the right to
vote; it simply prohibits any discrim-
ination against them on account Of
their sex. This is a most material dis
tinction. Any state law now existing
or hereafter enacted, which violates
this amendment, is negatOry. Any
election law which does not do this
is still effective. The registration laws
of the state are not discriminatory
and, therefore, stand.
sThese laws require voter to be
registered, and the time now allowed
is the 9Th, Eth and Sth days of Sep
tember. Any woman who complies
with that law can vote Those who DO
not or can not will under non-dis-
criminatory registration laws OF the
state be deprived of the privilege. A
proclamation by the governor or in
structions by him to the supervisors
of registration that women be permit
ted to register, will, in my opinion
make our election laws conform to
the amendment"
