SENATOR MApP TALKS
ON W0nAA'S SUFFRAGE

In an address before the Methodist
women. of Richmond for social serv-
ice yesterday afternoon in Centenary
Methodist church, state Senator
Mapp. did not argue the question of
womans suffrage. bat declared his
belief, that the women will have the
vote and will have 1t shortly. In his
opinion they win have ii in time for
the November election. In very
concise manner. Senator Mapp ex-
planned the provision OF a bill now
pending. which provides for the regis
traUon qualifications and voting Of
women. upon the adoption of the min
tscnth amendment
He stated that the orr1T question
that ever bothered him seriously In
connection with woman's suffrage,
was the fear that the masses OF
women, the mothers and housewives,
OF Virginia, would not exercise the
right when given to them, but he had
now come to believe they would stand
for morality and prohibition and for
the Improvement of all economic con-
ditions. particularly that of public
health, child welfare and educa ton.
He has no fears whatever OF the re-
suits of suffrage which he urged the
ladies present, not to consider lightly.
He believes II should be the duty of
every woman, whether it is convcn-
len. or not, to go to the polls, as she
does to every other place she wishes,
and cast her ballot, when the right
is given her.
The speaker gave three fundamental
reasons for his belief In suffrage: that
OF coed health, good morals and
good education for our children. He
believes every child is entitled to be
born OF good moral parents and that
every effort should be made TO have
our children educated, believing that
then they will make good when
thrown out on their own response
bility.
Preceding the address by Senator
Mapp, the social service for Meth
odist women, OF Richmond. was re-
organized and the following oficers
elected: president. Mrs Il II. oPtts;
first vice president, Mrs. James A.
Richardson; second vice president.
Mrs, John D. Murreil; third yice-pres-
ident, Mrs. l. S. Tourney; recording
secretary, Miss Marian Welsh; cor
responding secretary. Mrs. j. H. John
son treasurer. Mrs. A. c. Quarlcs:
superintendent Of publicity. Mrs. r. l.
