Tells HOlcOmb "YOur Cause and That of the Republi- Party Are One.'

Hartford, Aug. 9-Up to midday today Governor HoIcomb, who spent the weekend at home in Southing- ton had not received the letter ad- dressed to him by Will H. Hays, chairman of the national republican committee. urging him to call a special session of the Connecticut general assembly to act on the suffr- age amendment. No statement was. therefore, to be had from his ex- cellency. MT. Hays first declaration to the governor is:
 Urges Ratification
 Your cause and that of the re- publican party are one. This states a proved fact in a few words" He then relates action suffrage taken by the 1ecen. national convention, aud says:
 Individually and collectively the effort of republicans has been to se- cure the ratification of the suffrage amendment"
 For himself, he added, personally let me say that I am sympathetic with it."
 MT Hays asserts that the suffrage question is not a party question and "a special legislative session is small pIS6 lO pay loI 1 SiS@i VI fSSAA~~- mosphere."
 Gives Added Argument.
 As further, argument for imme diate action in Connecticut he says:
 Relieve the American woman from the necessity of claiming her consti- tutionaE right and her sister from the fancied necessity of opposing claim and you will liberate a body of pub xl. rrvv, d it's issues which will prove itself to be one of our greatest national as- sets.''
 Takes Issue With Gov.
 Tn taking definite issue with the governor, who says no emergency ex- ists. MT. Hays says:
 "I do not agree that so great an issue should be settled only a1ter q fresh legislative election. Wisely or unwisely. the question whether rati- fication of a proposed amendment should be submitted to the state leg islatures or to popular conventions composed of delegates elected upon that issue. has been by the constitu- tion of the United States vested in congress and not in the states
 Favors Special Session.
  authorities to submit the pending question to popular vote, no valid reason can be suggested for refusing to summon legislature in special session unless it be executive dis agreement with the anticipated action of that body. But this, I respectful ly suggest, is not a consideration by which authorities in any state should be moved. The test of the existence of the emergency which justified a summons to the legislature is not mere executive by approval of the ac- ton which the legislative assembly will probably take. The test is whether or not the national welfare requires the prompt elimination of a disturbing issue and the determina- ton of great question of citizenship before a pivotal election instead of after it.
 Justice For Women.
 'I refrain from advancing the usual arguments in behalf of suffrage. I leave entirely out of consideration the partisan advantage or disadvantage which ratification migh entail.
 T urge ratification first in the hope of thereby clearing the political at mosphere; second, in the belief that the suppression of effective opinion works harm to the whole body polis.1 we owe immediate action as a meas ure of simple justice to American women"

Vienna, Aug. 6.-It Is now settled
that elections for a new National AS

October. Unless another crisis should
arise, which is most unlikely in view
of the present internal situation, the
temporary cabinet that took office last
week will continue in power and car

The wealth levy and constitutional

that resulted in the downfall OF the
Renner ministry, still occupy the
leading place as issues. 1t was agreed
upon that their consideration shoulc
continue and an effort be made to
reach a compromise that will permit
of passage in some form. The Social

party, are so far apart, however, that
on acceptable compromise of work.
