Title: Le vote des femmes état de la question d'après le récent congrès de Berlin
Description: This is a transcript of a meeting of French feminists from various organizations, including Mrs. Cecile Brunschvicg, Mrs. Germaine Malaterre-Sellier, Mrs. Yvonne Pagniez, Ms. Bazy, Mrs. Bertha Lutz (of Brazil), and Mrs. Avril de Sainte-Croix. The meeting begins with Mrs. Brunschvicg's detailed explanation of the recent Berlin Congress, an assembly sponsored by the International Woman Suffrage Alliance. She explains that since the group convened in Berlin, Germany, a nation which already accorded women the right to vote, participants focused more on women's experience as voters rather than the issue of women's suffrage itself. Brunschvicg provides a lengthy explanation of women's rights in other countries, highlighting France's particularity as a nation which had not yet recognized women's equality. Mrs. Malaterre-Sellier follows with a discussion of pacifism, which she argues is difficult for French women to promote politically since they did not yet have the right to vote. Mrs. Pagniez and Ms. Bazy then separately explain the prospects of family suffrage in France, and Mrs. Lutz ends the meeting with a short explanation of women's rights in Brazil.
