CINCINNATI. Oct. 8-The guy

There's about $2100 difference be-

Amendment to Grant Women
Full Equality Urged by Iowon
Mrs. Gillette Reeds Husbands Statement
At Tribute to Susan B. Anthony

An amendment to the Constitution
to provide for absolute equality
under law" for women was advo-
Gated last night by Senator Gillette
OF Iowa, as women's organizations
paid tribute to Susan B. Anthony,
pioneer crusader for equal rights for
women, on the occasion Of the 120th
anniversary Of her birth.
Mrs. Gillette. wife OF the Senator,
who was unable to attend the me-
mortal service, read her husband s
prepared statement as part of the
program held in the crypt of the
Capitol. The ceremony here, spon-
sored by the National Woman's
Party, in cooperation with nearly
so other organizations. was one of
many held throughout the United
States.
One Of the purposes of a program
Of commemoration, Senator Gillette
said, is to dedicate ourselves to the
fulfillment of work to be done"
There would be no better way to
honor the memory of Susan B..
Anthony and to prove our gratitude
and worthiness Of being the recipi-
ents of her labors, his statement
said, than to continue unceasing ef-
forts until there is incorporated into
the Constitution of the United
States a provision giving American
women absolute equality under the
law with all the rest of our citizens"
Sees State Rights Preserved.
Under such an amendment State
rights would be preserved, he said,
declaring he had scant patience with
those who opposed such action on
the grounds that it would be an in
vasion Of the right of a State to en-
act its own legislation.
Equality does not mean Uniform
ity," he declared.
Every State would adopt it's own
standard to apply equally to men
and women within its own jurisdic-
tion, he said. Thus. in given State,
men and women would have equal
rights, but the rights would not nee
essarily be the same in the various
State jurisdictions. Each State would
preserve its own standard, he as
serted.
when we realize the opposition
that Susan B. Anthony faced" he
said, I'VE will not be dismayed by
the remnants of opposition still
existing here and there in the Ma
ton. I don't believe it has crystal

into effective opposition"
He urged q continuance Of the
fight begun by Miss Anthony. point
ing out that as long as there re-
mains anywhere within the borders
OF the United States q section where
women have not attained full legal
equality with men. the work Of this
great woman is not completed"
"Our hardest fight" he said, will
be against indifference and inertia. ~
Representative Bender of Ohio,
another speaker on the program, re-
ferred to George Washington, Abra-
ham Lincoln and Miss Anthony as
the patriots whose memory we
revere this month"
I'VE honor them," he said, "be-
cause they were makers of human
freedom. George Washington freed
his people from the tyranny OF q
long distant dictatorship, Abraham
Lincoln freed the slaves, and Susan
B. Anthony freed her sisters"
Miss Anthony's victory, he pointed
out, was all the more remarkable
because for so years she crusaded
for women almost alone. Today" }"
he said, I'VE men look back at the
years OF Susan Anthony's life to
blush with shame. We did every-
thing within our power to dis
courage her. Her own sex was al
most as hostile. She did not falter.
There is still much which must
be done before equal rights are as
sured to every man and woman in
our Nation. Her spirit must con-
tinue to live; it must continue to
work"
Representative Jessie Sumner of
Illinois told of hardships Miss An
thony encountered in her fight for
women's rights.

asked. "We must make those last
