To FIGHT SUFFRAGE
ON TENNESSEE NOTE
Fairchild Says Constitutional
League Attacks Validity of
Colby's Proclamation.

Washington, Sept. 4.-Through it
president, Charles ). Fairchld, who was
Secretary of the Treasury under Cleve-
land the American Constitutional League
issued a statement yesterday asserting
that the first Tennessee certificate, on
which Secretary CoIbys proclamation Of
ratification of the woman suffrage amend
ment was based was not an official Notice
of ratification.
The league, which has brought suit
against Secretary Colby, challenging the
validity of his action in proclaming
ratification of the amendment, contends
that the certificate which Secretary Colby
received from Governor Roberts OF
Tennessee was merely certified copy OF
the proceedings. including those OF the
quorumless Tennessee House on August
81, which have since been expuneed from
the House records, and that second
certificate was sent 20 Secretary Colby by
Governor Roberts on Saturday when il
was published after being given out by the
ants at Nashville
The statement issued by the league
last night charges that the state Depart
ment has concealed the text and nature Of
the first document. on which Secretary
Colby's proclamation was based. and
that the department has refused 90 allow
the Constitutional Leagues lawyers Ia
examine. photograph or make oopies Of
It. IL is also asserted that court action
will be taken If necessary by the league
to obtain certified copies and lift the veil
of secrecy concerning tho first certificate.
The league contends that the proclaim a
ton itself. rs issued by Secretary Colby,
has no hearing on the validity Of the
amendment, as dealt with by the District
Of Columbia Court Of Appeals IN the
case Of Widamann against Colby on
May 3, 1920. and that Secretary Colby
has no more to do with the validity Of a
Federal amendment than any other adj
ministration clerk
