The case will come up for a hear

STATE PRESIDENT OF WON
EN- VOTERS ISSUES
CLEAR STATEMENT
is NOT POLITICAL
For The UpIift Of All The PeO-
pie And Not To Boost
ANY Party Or
Faction.

Jackson, Miss, Nov D.. Because
of confusion in the public mind as to
the nature and purposes of the Lea
que of Women Voters-a confusion
arising, APPARENTLY through the NUM-
Der of womeu's organizations already
active and others in process of forma-
tion, the state president Of the Lea
que, Mrs. B. /, Saunders, OF Swan
Lake, has issued the following state
ment covering the points of misunder-
standing:
"The Mississippi League Of Women
Voters, which is branch Of the ma
tional organization of that name, is a
non-partlsan, non-sectarlan, non-mlll-
tant organization, the constitution of
which states explicitly that it shall be
allied with and support no party. Its
officers and members are free to join
the party Of their choice.
"The Mississippi League does not
wish to control any woman's vote. 1t
has no selfish ends to serve. 1t will
neither black list nor work for GER
tain candidates, nor for the factions
they represent. 1t will work
for measures, not men; for principles,
not parties. 1t is not a Woman's
Party in any sense Of the word. 1t
hopes to work with likeminded men
to make life happier and richer for
the masses of people in our state.
"The Mississippi League of Women
Voters will attempt nothing radical.
We have begun our work by holding
citizenship schools throughout the
state. Wesexpect to work for equal
guardianship of children by both par
ents, for health certificates as a basis
for the issuance of marriage licenses;
for better laws governing the age OF
consent; for capable women on all
boards of education; for women on
textbook commissions; and for the
teaching Of citizenship in all public
schools.
THE League Of Women Voters not
only gives to the woman voter some
thing which no other organization
quite supplies, but it furnishes aid to
those worthy and forward-looking
men who have long worked for better
qualifications in the voter as means
of governmental reform. 1t is the
only organization devoting it's en-
ergies exclusively to organization in
citizenship, and to the interests OF
women as voting citizens.
"Non-partisan in its operation,
since it lends itself to the support OF
no party candidates, the League is all 7
partisan in its sympthies in that it
includes all parties in it's effort to
reach the altitude of better, wiser
citizenship, to make intelligent use of
the ballot, and to secure enactment !
of non-political measures for human
betterment, for human health and
happiness.
"At the beginning of the year 1920
the women who had worked long and
valiantly for political equality realiz-
ed that the fight was won, that the

ject.
1t is the greatest thing in the
world, Edison said in agreeing to go.

new ideas for dealing with the Muscle

benefit them in the long run. But

Her lap is full Of goody things,
Her brow is bright with autumn leaves.

Oh, blessings with the sunshine scnt
The bounty overruns our due;
The fullness shames our dscontcnt
We shut our eyes, the bowers bloom on;
We murmur but the corn ears fill;
We choose the shadow, but the sun

And gives us, with our rugged soil,
The power to make it Eden fair,
And richer fruits to crown our toll
Than summer-wedded islands bear.

last week. Mr.. Peterson was a

Mr.. Peterson said: "Let the I. v.

WORKERS HERE
PROTEST BILLS
To Changes In
Eight Hour Law
Statute

Workers here including representa-
tives of every organized union in Dew
lis Lake have gone on record as op-
posing legislative bills introduced at
Bismarck which would change the
eight hour law for women and knock
out the present effectiveness of the
Compensation act.
Protest Is Signed
Under direction Of labor leaders
Saturday morning a forceful protest
signed by members of the various or
CARNATIONS, and headed by G. w. Nc
Donnell, secretary of the Ramsey
county branch Of the Nonpartisan
league and also local representative
of the State Federation Of Labor and
Charles Sneesby, president Of the Fed
Grated Shop Crafts, vas mailed to
Howard Wood, president of the state
senate.
Bitter Feeling Shown
Workers in all parts of the city
are bitter against 1. v. A. factions at
Bismarck for their attempt to with
draw the present working power Of
the eight hour law for women in par
ticular. It has been forcibly pointed
out that:
"The eight hour law for women has
been approved by the greatest social
workers in the United States, by ply
stefan acquainted with the physical
contribution of women, by religious
workers cognizant with the effects Of
such a law on the moral life of the
community, and by presidents of the
United States, governors and other
statesmen interested in the general
welfare of the country"
