New-York tribune., 1920-04-18

We advanced women must push
them on. Never did this country
need women's courage more than
now.
1.-The letters | have received since
my maiden speech, thousands of
them, would astonish the House
letters on such high level, breath
ing such hope, full of spirituality
and of practical wisdom.
"1f there are more women than
men in this country, all the more
reason why women should have
more representation.
"People who object to women in
public life are too late. There are
certain reforms that we women are
determined to get
81 am so fond of men; that is
Why l want more women to get the
vote. 1t will be good for the men.
Men need the assistance of women"
Captain Elliott said that Lady
Astor's remarks were those of a
fanatic, the principle of the women
as expressed by her being;
'We are out to do you good. and
good we shall do you whether you
like it or not"
Not Fanatics
"There is no reason to fear US"
was Lady Astor's reply. I'VE are
reasonable beings. We are not
fanatics. Fear never won any
thing"
Throughout this debate Lady AS
tor was the center of the proceed
ings, and her "Hear, hear" the Eng
lish method of expressing approval,
according to one account of the ses-
sion, rang out at the rate of three
times a minute. One reporter who
kept tab recorded that she cried
"Hear, hear" not less than 161
times in the course of the debate,
and once shook her first roguishly at
one member who dared to say "No,
no" when she had cried "Hear,
hear"
In the debate on the liquor ques-
tion one member asserted that in
America children waited outside
chemist shops while their parents
were purchasing drugs.
"That is not true" interrupted
Lady Astor.
1t was in the consideration of this
liquor bill that Lady Astor found
occasion to deliver her "maiden
speech She arose at the conclu-
sion Of the speech by Sir John Rees
and was greeted with prolonged
cheers. Beginning with a reference
to her own election, she said:
Cries of Dissent.
81 shall not crave the indulgence of
the House. / am only too conscious
of the indulgence and courtesy of
the House. | know it was very diff
ficult for some honorable members to
receive the first lady member of
Parliament in the House. Cries
Not at all)-almost as difficult as
it was for the lady M. P. herself to
come in. However, honorable mem
bcrs need not be frightened as to
what Plymouth has sent out. After
all, when Drake and Raleigh set out
on their venturesome careers some
cautious persons would have said:
Don't do it; stay at home, my son.
The whole world was all the better
for those venturesome and courage
Gus west country folks-Drakc,
Raleigh and the Pilgrim Fathers
and | am quite certain that the
women Of the whole world will not
forget that it was the fighting men
of Devon who dared TO send the first
woman to represent them in the
mother Of Parliaments.
"As the west country people arc
q courageous lot it is only right that
one Of their representatives should
show some courage, and l am per-
fcctly aware that it does take bit
Of courage to address the House
upon the vexcd question Of drink.
(Hcar, hear) However, dare do
it. Tn honorable membsr who
New-York tribune., 1920-04-18

IF you care enough about people
they will listen to the truth. The
whole world is sick of lies. (Cheers.y
"There is a real awakening
throughout the country Laughter
You can laugh, but | say there are
thousands in England who want to
see the country better. They are
even willing to give up their appe-
tites if need be. You have to face
this question of drink. lHear, hear.l
If you want national efficiency you
must face it. How many of US real
~ like to have a drunken laborer or
even a alf-intoxicated laborer? Do
YOU think you get the maximum
work out Of him? You do not. and
you know it. | really do ask the
house not to misread the spirit or
the times. Do not 90 around say
ing you want to make England Git
home for heroes unless you mean to
90 It. | do not want to rob honor
able gentlemen Of anything that
gives them pleasure. DO not wish
to take JOY out Of the world or to
take away anything that makes for
the betterment Of the world.
New-York tribune., 1920-04-18
''More Than Polite"

Lady Astor got great laugh by
retorting to this that the honorable
member was "more than polite
One Of the criticisms against re-
duclng the voting age of women to
fwenty-onc was, according to Mr..
Gideon Murray, "the emotionalism
Of girls Of twenty-one."
"Oh, on" cried Lady Astor at
this point in his speech, and when
she took the floor she had this to
gay as to emotionalism

'ideon Murray. He has said what

I.ar older and much wiser in many
ways than a man Of twenty-five. We

sooner"
The bugaboo Of a vote along sex

s'sIen TO the, measure, but Lady
Astor ridiculcd it.
