CITIZENS URGE
DIG. SUFFRAGE

The youth of Washington are
being reared without any practical
knowledge Of Constitutional princi-
pies or of the significance of the
ballot, Judge Mary O'Toole, of the
Municipal Court. told the House
Judiciary Committee today in sup
porting legislation for national rep
resentation for the Capital.
Her plea for the enfranchisement
of the coming generation of Wash
ingtonians was supported also by
John B. Colpoys, representing the
local labor group: Jesse. c. Suter, OF
the Citizens Advisory Council; Rep
resentative H. r. Rathbone, a
native born Washingtonian, who
now represents an Illinois district
in Congress; Mrs. George c. Kicker,
of the District of Columbia League
of Women Voters, and several
others.
1.-The country does not really
know that Washington is without
suffrage" said Mr.. Colpoys, II have
attended scores of labor and fra
ternal conventions throughout the
nation, and generally amazement
was expressed when 1 told them
Cnat we people VI washington were
without the fundamental rights en-
joyed by all Americans. l have
never had any difficulty in show
ing these organizations that we
should be Americanized."
Representative Rathbone made a
short plea for complete suffrage
for the National Capital. He de-
clared that the present disfran-
chised status Of Americans I'M
fortunate enough to be born in
Washington" should not continue.
Mrs. George c. Kicker declared
that all the women of Washington
wanted to assert their new rights
by going to the ballot box and
casting a vote.

to have been committed on him at

December's night while in company

The reason for the attack has
ever been a mystery. Duffie has
