Recognition Of Women.
[By Mary Garrett Hay, Written for
The United Pressl
CHICAGO, June IL. - Platform
pIanks on naturalization, woman suf-
frage, social and Industrial justice,
education and health, and strong
blanks on child labor and women in
Industry, proposed by various wom-
ems organizations. have been ac-
cepted by the republican convention.
They have recognized the requests
Of the various woman's organizations,
notably, the league Of women voters,
asking for certain planks with regard
to the health and morale of women
and children, as well as the educa-
ton of youths and the working hours
of an working people; also strong
suffrage resolution which calls for
the governors of Vermont and Con-
necticut to- call special sessions at
once and ratify the suffrage amend
ment.
Women who have been active for
these special planks feel that their
labors have not been in vain. 1t is
a matter of regret that no woman
delegate was made member of the
resolutions committee. Had this
been done, they would have been
represented on every committee ap'
pointed. -.s s.l-
From it's platform. the republican
party still seems to be the party OF
progress.
