Special Dispatch to The Star, BALTIMORE, September 17.—The ‘1woman voter in the coming election will not lack “education.” The League of Women Voters will see to that, and it is going about the busi- ness of informing the women on who’s who and what's what in a most : | thoroughgoing fashion. There will be twenty schools lo- cated in twenty different wards, to which women will be able to go and learn everything about politics. from {the kindergarten stage up. Politics not only as it was, but also “as |s,” will be taught, and_that_includes ‘in- tensive study of Gov. Ritchie's re- ’lorganization program. For, as Miss Lavinia Engle, executive secretary of the league, explained, “we want the women to know about issues that are coming up in this.campaign. | Twenty women teacherg, been studying all summer, Engle put it, in_order to qualify for the positions, will be in charge of the classes. The “citizenship schools,” as they are called, wilf be in session once a week for four weeks, beginning Sep- tember 26., The first day the subject for gdiscussion and study will be “The Executive Department,” in which the functions of the governor, attorney- general, the state administration, the hools and public health department jwill be discussed. Under the subject | of public health the league will bring rd its plan for a bureau of child e, as is contemplated by the National League for Women Voters in_the Sheppurd-Towner The second day, under the title, “The Legislative Department,” the women will be given an insight into the organization of the House Senate and how a bill becomes a law —valuable preparation for _those members of the league who cherish {legislatvie aspirations. Taxation, a | burning question at the present time, iwill also receive due and proper at- Z | tention. For present purposes, in preparing women for their participation in the coming election, the third lecture is jof the most immediate interest. It will go into the whys and wherefores of political parties, primaries, short ballots and Kindred subjects, and will also explain the purpose and scope of the corrupt practices act. The fourth session will be set aside | for didates themselves, and the latter will be invited to come and tell their women constituents their rea- sons for thinking they should be elected. —er SN\ nzw homes 608 to 620 OTISST.N.W.
