LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 1.—Under a leave of absence pian, Illh the pmviso that all vice presidents “take turns” at Washington _headquarters, Miss Belle Sherwin of Cleveland, Ohio, today ac- cepted the nomination to succeed her- self for the seventh and eighth years as national president of the League of ‘Women Voters. Since nomination through the regu- | 1ar league channel is tantamount to elec- tion, Miss Sherwin thus will be left | free, as president, to rest in her famous | garden, as Carrie Chapman Catt sug- gested in her “Anniversary Book" trib- ute to Miss Sherwin. That volume, filled with appreciations of Miss Sher- win's six years' service, was presented to her at a brilliant fete held last night in_her honor. ‘The shouders on which Miss Sher- win's presidential mantle will succes- sively fall will be well trained to the tasks, since all but one of the vice presi- dents nominated will be succeeding her- self when elected. Miss Wells Is Nominated. Miss Marguerite M. Wells of Minne- apolis was nominated fifth vice presi- dent to succeed Mrs. W. W. Chicago. ‘The present vice presidents renomi- nated to serve during Miss Sherwin's leave of absence as rotating presidents were: Miss Katharine Ludington of Lyme, Conn.; Mrs. Roscoe Anderson of 8t. Louis, Miss Ruth Morgan of New York City and Miss Elizabeth J. Houser of Girard, Ohio. Mrs. Henry Steffens, jr. of Detroit, Mich., was nominated to succeed her- self as secretary. Mrs. Elsle A. Zins- meister of Louisville, Ky, was nomi- nated to succeed Mrs. Frank P. Hixon of Lake Forest, Ill.,, as treasurer.

Tlustrious Leaders Are Honored. ‘The woman labor leader and the millionaire’s wife were sisters, sharing homage today when the league an- nounced the 70 illustrious names of its national roll of honor, A women's hall of fame for the full sweep of the suffrage movement. It honored almost equally the living and the dead in the tenth lnnlvcrsury cele- bration of the victory of “the cause.” Just in time for the celebration came Dr. Harriet B. Jones, 74, of Glendale, W. Va., radiant because the honor roll included her career—a lifetime spent as & pioneer physician in a small town. rs. Robert M. La Follette was hon- ged in her own right for the women of Two lelgue officers’ granddaughters, Gladys and Florence Harrison, and a gflker stepson, Dr. Richard Olding ard, shared the triumph of Mrs. H. G. Harrison, 82, of Minneapolis. An honor Toll poster displaying photos of the 70 was brought from Washington headquarters to the convention hall. ‘The strong face of Mrs. Florence Kelley of New York, labor leader, was right beside the very feminine photo of Mrs. Guilford Dudley, who directed the rati- fication campaign of Tennessee. Credit for that victory also went to the late Mrs. Frank Leslie, who left her estate of about $2,000,000 to the suffrage cause. ‘Thus was the suffrage story told—in %0 personality chapters—women edu- mm preachers, journalists.
