ENGLAND MAY GIVE
BROADER SUFFRAGE
Mrs. PankhuIst's Campaign
Likely to Bear Fruit

London. April l Rs-Considera-
ton OF "happer suffrage as op-
ponents term the vote for women
between the ages OF q and 80, has
met with a setback in the councils
o. the cabinet. There Is a posi-
bility that the government will take
no action until the views of all the
political parties are given at Joint
conference.
Mrs. Emmeline Gankhurst and
other prominent women suffragists
who some years back were cam
paicning for votes for women and
Won them for women over thirty.
redoublcd their efforts today TO get
tho franchise for women over Il be
cause it became known after a cab
met meeting yesterday that consid-
Grafton OF the plan probably would
he deferred until the next session
Of parliament.
It appears that the cabinet MIN
isters are at odds on the subject
and that Premier Baldwin, who had
hoped to make n statement In the
house OF commons before the Easter
recess, was unable to get the min
listers to agree on the nature OF the
statement. Thus. it is considered
likely that the question will first be
submitted to Joint conference of
the various political parties.
The contention is made by tn"
opponents OF "fappcr suffrage
that II the five million women be-
tween the ages OF 81 and 90 IN the
United Kingdom are permitted 10
vote, the women voters VIII out
number the men In all but a few
mining constituencies.
should the government adopt the
plan to submit the question to the
political parties. it is believed Pre-
mier Baldwin will make the explain
alton that such an important doci-
sion should come by agreement
among all the parties. so that the
onus OF any consequences should
not fail on one group.
The government is also expected
TO take the view that such radical
alteration in the franchise system
would make necessary a change in
the entire electoral organization.
In this connection there are rumors
that the government is In favor of
n form OF proportional representa-
ton.
r. has been pointed out that be-
cause of signs of renewed life in the
liberal party. there is likelihood OF
at least three candidates in most
constituencies, which would afford
many opportunities for the election
of members by minority votes. 1t
is to avoid such difficulties that the
government is said to be in favor of
a system Of alternative votes.
