MILITANT LEADER OF
"VOTES FOR WOMEN"
RETURNS TO ENGLAND
(By Associated Pre.sl

LONDON, Feb. 19.-Mrs. Emme-
line Pankhurst, the militant leader
of the votes ior women" cause be-
fore the war, has returned to the
suffrage battle ground after spend
ing the last eight years abroad. She
has come back to England to take
part in the campaign, more peaceful
than those she led years ago, to ex-
tend the franchise so that British
women may vote at 81 instead of
waiting until they are so years old.
"Women's Week." to be marked
by oratory and professions through
out the country, is to take place
early in June to push the demand
for this extension of the suffrage.
Mrs. Parkhurst, who has been in
France, Bermuda, Canada and other
parts of the world since she left
England in 1917, considers that wo-
men have not done badly in politics
and otherwise, considering their
difficulties. Now that we have
gained the vote" she said, soon after
her return, 1--WE still have to prove
ourselves worthy of it. Our cam
paign now must be to redeem our
promises to teach the world that wo-
men are quite as capable of govern
ment as men,"
