The editorial referred to by Yaden pointed out that one
Of the important learned from attack upon the
Citizens Advisory Council that the people of Washington
are now more nsisent upon the right to elect their local
officials than ever before.
While it is plain to everybody that the Citizens Advisory
Council CANNOT represent the sentiments desires of
ALL the people of Washington it plain that this body
has represented and well represented the wishes of thousands
Of citizens who members Of the many citizens associations
Of this city.
is also plain that the District Commissioners should and
doubtless do understand that other powerful organizations
the city having deep interest in civic affairs should
listened to and considered in all District matters
The Commissioners realize that the Advisory Council
has given Washington people taste of indirect participation
in their local affairs which has led to powerful sentiment
for DIRECT PARTICIPATION through direct suffrage.
For 20 years or more organization demand
ing of Congress what called National Representation
right vote for President Vice President Senators and
That organization has NEVER asked for the
right of Washington people to elect their local officials and
delegate in the House.
The attitude has been most puzzng one. Apparently
according this position, qualified to vote in national
matters, but ARE NOT FIT TO VOTE ON LOCAL SUB
JEcTs
As Frank Perry well known local attorney has pointed
out this is sTULT1F1CAT1oN It is than that It

gence Of this community probably higher than in other

TO the core with less radicalis and solid qualities of
citizenship than will be found in large American cities filled
with agtators and disturbers.
There is far stronger sentiment in Congress for local
suffrage than for national suffrage Senator'S and Representa-
ves know that want all the suffrage entitled
but that WE WANT AS MUCH AS WE CAN GET NOW
without waiting indefinitely.
In this matter, well in others, The Times believes
it does voice public sentiment glad the growth
Of virile feeling for local suffrage
The Hearst newspapers may again be repeated "are

Every normal man wants to be.
lieve that he's a devil with the
ladies. That's as much a part of
his male equipment as his Adams
apple. These pleasing peccadil-
loes serve that end. In his mind
they are not to be confused with
the love and respect a man bears
his wife. Nor do they affect
his pride in his home and fam.

their support or his dignified
standing as husband and

Am I trying to justify un.

OF course, I'm not. I'm simply
trying to point out the fact that
these escapades do not constitute
unchastity to man. Women
would be saved endless heartache
if they would realize that fact.
