DOLLEY EXPLAINS ROW"
County Chairman Says There Was No
Stormy Session With Women.


Stormy Session With Women.
Editor State Journal:
In your valued paper, issue of the
evening of November %, there APP
peared an article that was misleading
and not based upon facts. The head
lines were, They Ask Dolley, Shaw
nee County Republican Women Make
Demands; They Wanted Places on the
Speaking Program at Dinner, Not
Given Representation. etc"
The inference was given that this
was very stormy and violent meet
ing. This is not true. They did not
advise me that they held the whip
hand of the Republican party in
Shawnee county and that they in
tended to use it. They did not ask
my promises for things that they
wanted Immediately from the Repub-
lican party and they did not demand
surety bond for the things they
might wish in the future.
No mention was made of why they
had not been given a place on the
speaking program at the Republican
county dinner to be held next week
The entire committee, men and wo-
men, are on the speaking program at
the coming meeting. No objections
were offered or mention made of why
they were not given further represen-
tation on the county executive com
mittee.
1 did not state that the women had
no authority for forming an indepen-
dent organization. 1 did state that 1
had no authority whatever, to urge
that they should not do so. and that
they were their own free agents in
this matter. Mrs. Noble Prentis spoke
and supported my position fully.
There was no mention made, Meth
err did they object to Governor Allen
and Representative Anthony having
all the time at the Allen and Anthony
meeting or to Senators Curtis and
ICapper having all the time at the Cur
tbs and Capper meeting.
There was no mention made of a
Republican meeting at Meriden dur
ing the campaign, as no meeting was
lheld at Meriden under the auspices
of the Shawnee county Republican
committee. one prominent reason be-
ing that Meriden is located in JEFF
ferson county and our committee had
no jurisdiction there.
There was no mention made that
the women had won the ballot thru
weak insignificant man. At the be-
ginning of the campaign they were
asked who they wished for vice chair
man of the committee. They en-
dorsed Mrs. Festus Foster She was
promptly elected. Then Mrs. Foster
and her associates were given the au-
thority to select sixtyfive precinct
women for Shawnee county without
dictation or suggestion from any one.
They did this. The women were then
