CURED at Sudlersville last week
when-the binennial election Of Town

Notwithstanding the fact that
national legislation has been passed
which gives women the same right

the charter OF Sudlersvilie was
drawn so as TO include only the
male residents OF the town. While
no legal opinion has been rendered
on the subject, It was assumed that
the charter would have to be amend
ed at the next session Of the Mary

Of Sudlersville will enjoy the same
privileges Of the ballot as are ac-
corded TO men.
The election was one or the most
