G, O. P. WOMEN WIN FIGHT FOR EQUAL
REPRESENTATION AFTER BATTLE until
"A. M. BEFORE RULES COMMITTEE

New Haven, Sept. 13-The COM
mittee on rules of the Republican
state convention was the center of in
terest until nearly two o'clock this
morning owing to the effort which
was made to get the rules OF the
state committee changed so that
women may have equal representa-
ton and power in the committee.
Half an hour after the arguments
ended the committee voted to recon-
mend to the convention that a state
convention be called of delegaes to
purpose of choosing one woman from
each senatorial district to be a MEM
Der of the state committee and to
change the rules to conform with the
organization of the new COMMITTEES.
The matter, it was voted, shoula
come before the convention in the
form of resolution to be drafted by
three members.
Fairfield County Club
Mrs. Minerva Davis of NorwafK
announced after the meeting of the
committee that a Fairfield county
~omen's Republican club would be
formed at once by a representative
from each town. and that the club
would be solely for political pur-
poses. She also announced that the
attitude of this club would be to
oppose former Senator F. NJ. Salmon.

came when Col. I. NJ. Ullman refused

vote was FL to 10, indicative of con-

SYNOPSIS OF PLATFORM SUBMITTED At
REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION, TODAY

mendation. Connecticut long ago
adopted a policy of paying it's
current expenses from it's cur
rent receipts. 1t has constantly
adhered to this wise plan.
The state was in debt to the
of dollars. Not only has that
debt been substantially wiped
away but the increasing cost of
rapidly extending the States
highways; of the greatly i'm
proved public school system and
of the extended hospital service,
including hospitals for the insane
and tuberculosis patients; of
maintaining and charging our IN
situations for the segregation of
imbeciles and epileptics; Of our
penal and reformatory institu-
lions, has been fully met.
Aid to Widows.
Tho progressive people of Con-
necticut, of whom many were
women, demanded that aid be ex-
tended to worthy widows having
dependent children and who
were found to be unable to adj
furnishing such aid was passed by
the Republican General Assembly
of 1919. 1t has proven its worth
and has justified the splendid
foresight of its sponsors.
The Republican General As
to the statewide demand of the
public spirited women of the state
established a program of child
welfare. Necessary legislation
containing broad administrative
authority was enacted and an ad-
equate appropriation was made
with which to carry ON this work.
Juvenile courts were establiShed
at the same session of the Gem
era1 Assembly. This hunlanita-
f1an and social legislation places
our state in the front rank in
this limo of activity.
Pledges Galore.
We pledge to the citizens of
Connecticut a continuation of the
wise plans and policies already
adopted, we will stand by the Re-
pub.Ica.n enactment of 1919 which
created trust fund of $200,000,
the income of which inures to
the benefit of the soldiers, sailors
and marines OF the Great World
War This legislation has gone
farther towards solving the prob
lem of furnishing relief to those
who responded to the couutry's
call and their dependents than
that enacted by any other state.
1t is sound legislation and en-
people.
We will administer the laws
economically and fairly, paying
bills with current revenues.
We believe in the enactment of
suitable legislation removing all
legal discrimination against wom-
en-.
We will change the tax laws
by revising some and by repeal
ing or amending others as en-
ightment and justice may re-
quire.
We believe in a rigid plan OF
economy n the conduct of the
state government, looking to a
reduction in the burden of taxa
ton.
We are proud of our record of
ccoInp.ishments in conducting
the affairs of our state and we
look with confidence to the in
telligent electors of Connecticut
for a continuation of responsible
governm ent.

New Haven. Sept. 13-Fo1lowing
synopsis the Republican platform
eported by the resolutions committe
oday in the sttae convention:
We, the Republicans of Con-
necticut in convention assembled,
reaffirm our faith in the historic
principles Of the Republican
party.
Thta faith is strengthened by
the fact that since the repud1a-
ton of the Democratic national
administration by the American
people and the inauguration of
President Warren G. Harding,
backed by a Republican congress,
discriminating and patriotic cit1-
zens of every political faith have
been able to- make clearly the con-
trast between the two great poll
teal parties Of this country.
In the seventeen months of the
management of the affairs of the
country by the Republican party
and under the wire, patient and
modest leadership of President
Harding, the country Is persIs-
tentiy finding it's way out of the
complicated mess accumulated
through eight years of Dem ocrat-
ic experim enting and nisrule
No other government which
participated in the great world
war has made progress toward
economic restoration and norm
alley comparable with that made
by this country.
Move For World peace
The conference called by Pres
ident Harding of representatives
of all the leading civilized nations
of the earth, to meet on Amer

fpose of removing the causes out
of which have grown the disputes
and danger of war and for the
purpose of reducing and limiting
the armamanets Of the part-%-
pating nations resulted in the
futt1llnent of the highest pur-
poses.
rn1s conference may aptly be
called a mile stone in the march
of civilization toward the estab-
lishment of world peace.
The INSTRUMENTATION of the
affairs of the country by the
Democratic party is fresh in the
necticut. other period of eight
years in the history of our coun-
try has been so marked with II
responsible lead erShip and action
as that which ended with the col
lapse of the Democratic regime
on MdrCl 4, 1874. Lhe'I NNAiA
istration is remembered because
of its arrogance; its anxiety to
overturn, and without excuse or
reason, every tradition and pol
icy of the country Whlch mao
been honored by years and tested
by experience: by it's rhetoric for
the erect it might have upon the
electorate; by it's shameless waste
of public money; by the 1gnor-
ance and persistence with Whlcn
il harnfully meddled with the
foreign affairs of this country and
with the Internal affairs of sub
stantially all other. governments
and its un-American effort to
thrust our country into all the
rancors, enrities and hatreds of
the other nations of the earth.
