put the bill through as a matter OF po>
litical expediency, which they can easily
do with their combined voting strength.
Contessina Maria Loschi, who Is well
known in feminist groups in America
as one Of Italy's foremost women writ
ers, declares that the entire discussion
of votes for women has been relegated.
mo ONE THINKS
OF THEM"
mo one thinks that women are i'm
portant politically" she says NO one
thinks of them at all. There are over
100000 women unemployed, according to
statistics, and as many more, not reg
lstered without work and yet women have
done nothing about this, nor has the
Government. Politicians in Italy, as In
all other countries, are interested In
getting employment for the people who
vote, and women are not considered
any more. During the war they were
the angels of humanity, but when men
came back from the front without en-
ployment the women became silly,
frivolous creatures, who were taking the
bread out of mems mouths in order to
supply themselves with silk stockings
Italy Is ready to give the vote to women,
but until politicians are forced to do so
they will never give It,"
The one very hopeful woman Of all
the leaders in Rome is Madame Carar

union leagues in Italy and official repre-
sentative fthe Italian Women's Syndi-
Gates in the International Federation of
Working Women.

ITALIAN WOMEN

ROME. May 5-Now that Italy has
atemporarily settled her political difficult

en- of this country are preparing to Pre-
sent her with 4 new problem. They have

frage For two years the bill presented
by Modigliani, Socialist deputy, demand
ing votes for the women of Italy has been
sleeping almost undisturbed in parlia-
mentary quarters
The women Of Italy now declare that
they have been patient more than long
enough and say that they will at once
organize q plan Of action that will force
Parliament to discuss a bill for national
woman suffrage. For this purpose they
have called to Rome one of their most
courageous leaders, Prof. Margherita An
coma of Milan 10 conduct a conference Of
suffrage leaders.
Italy has never rescrted TO militant ac-
ton to get woman suffrage. but 1t is well
known that Signorina Aneona, who is

Sicilian by birth and ready to make a
fight against any injustice, has more thaG
once declared that the only reason Italian
women do not have the vote already is
because Italian politicians are not afraid
of them. Let the women of Italy
brighten their politicians as the women
of England and America die and We
would have the VOTE too" she told me.
APATHY TOWARD
SLFFRAGE.
The conference will be largely con-
trolled by her, and it remains to be seen
what her program will be. Women lead
ers in Rome are not a little discour-
aged over the apathy shown toward the
question of the woman's vote among
both men and women.
According to Madame Alice Schiovoni
Bosio, chairman OF the Associazione per
Ia Donna, and one Of the most active
workers in Rome for woman suffrage:
1.-The reason women do not have the
vote in Italy Is because every political
party is afraid the other parties will
gain too many votes from the women.
Each one seems to be afraid that it has
nothing to offer to women and so will
lose their support to some other party
The Socialists are afraid OF the Pop
Glare The Popolare are afraid of the
Socialists. The Liberals are afraid OF
everybody, and even some women are IN
the same state OF mind. The one hope
for suffrage lies in the fact that the
Popolare and the Socialists both want
women to vote, and they are at last con-
siderIng a coalition for other political
reasons and so may be persuaded to

who will be demanding the vote before
long. They have had no education po-
litically as yet, but there is every OPP
portunity to work among them now, and
when 100000 industrial working women
and as many more agricultural workers
demand the vote they will get it"
This, she says, is only one part Of the
program that the syndicate movement
plans now that 1t has obtained a separate
bureau for the women's syndicates in the
Italian General Confederation of Work
erS.

Justice. @ fsrs 4@* ii. :. Z. 4, i 'z5..4
The Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court Of the United States has said
repeatedly and emphasized it recent
" that there must be change in
the administration Of justice, partic-5
,ularly to the poor Of our country.
Not more, than a week ago q former
honored Senator from the Empire
State of. New York, the. Hon. Elihu
Root, declared before the Bar Asso-
citation, in essence, that there ts no
opportunity for justice for the poor
OF our country. =A'Z .s*...> {
z Is it reasonable to expect more
justice at the hands of these courts
or boards such as exist in Kansas
than from the ordinary: courts of
our country and our State mete out
to the working people? '. -
Individual Is Lost =
Do}you think for a moment that
you can prevent the great masses of
the people from aspiring to some
thing better in this life? Do you
think for moment that the threat
Of being sent to Jail is going to deter.
the masses OF, the people Of the Unit
ed States?
How do you think <an individual
workman can resent a~wrong or OBJ
tain a right in one of these modern
Industrial establishments. It is
like a voice in the wilderness in a
modern industrial plant with its
and improved tools and
its power. The individual in the
modern industrial plant has lost his
identity and lost his power.
China Has No Strikes
One would imagine, gentlemen,
that, our industry, that our govern
ment, have gone to the damnation
bow-wows on aoco INT of strikes.
Where do you find anywhere in the
world where the working people
produce as much as the working
people of the United States produce?

gress which the proposers: Of this
species Of legislation, want, look to
Iu1ud Wner9 Inere are no SCflkeS.
Kansas Has Strikes
Has the Kansas Industrial Court
Law prevented strikes? There have
been more strikes and larger numb
ers of men on strike since the estab-
lishment. Of the Industrial Court
Law In Kansas that at any time
previous to the enactment of that
law.
The government of Kansas did not
stop the strike of the, coal miners
which had been on for several
months. It was the organization of
the nners which stopped that strike.
Fails in Australia -:
In all the Australasian countries
the. same law was enacted and now
after an experience of more than
thirty years they are getting away

Let me say this to you, gentlemen,
If there is an act passed and placed
upon the statute books in which the

work against their will, It won't re-
quire much Of an amendment to

Why Fraud Charges Go with "Sub-
sidy" Raids.
It is no wonder, therefore, that
ugly charges Of frand and bribery
have gone hand in hand with pre-
viously attempted subsidy raids on
the National treasury. Away back
in 1872 the Pacific Mail Steamship
company secured fat contract for
additional mail steamship service
to the Orient. Two years afterwards
it was discovered that bribery had
been employed In securing g the pas
sage OF the act: the charge being
that million dollars had been spent
by corrupt lobby in pushing the
bill through. >(House Document No.
598, 42nd Congress.) Upon these
disclosures Congress abroRated the
contract.

President Gompers Of the American
Federation Of Labor, in reporting to
the annual convention on the then
pending Ship Subsidy bill, said:
while the ship subsidy bill was
under consideration I unearthed and
exposed a scheme of the promoters
Of the ship subsidy who undertook
to suborn and corrupt one or two
men in New York so as to make Il
appear that the men Of organized
labor were in opposition to the

Fifteen years more have passed
and the known interests and secret
promoters of ship subsidy scheme
are still the chief opponents Of labor
legislation: They are the very forces
that seek to crush union labor and
establish a cruel, merciless Industrial
