As to Dance Halls, Bennett scorned some of the are shown at moving picture houses, also the dance halls yvoung girls are allowed to nd unknown to their parents. Often drunken young men mingle with these girls and later the reeling forms of the young women can be seen along the streets. If there are any laws to prevent this they are made Dby man, but the enforcement, which is also supposed to be carried out by man, is woefully weak. Speaking further on the question of suffrage Mrs. Bennett said: “I hawe always considered that it was an easy and a delightful thing to Mrs. pictures that an honor to be an active member of the association organized for that sole purpose. For years we have been laving most of the stress on educa- tional work, by telling people through articles in the papers and in speeches the true reason for extending to women political freedor Now we have entered upon a new era b 3 votes for women has become a 1 rolitical ue in both state and na- tional affairs. The national parties, both republican and democratic, have put planks in their platforms un- qualifiedly endorsing the principles of woman suffrage ‘as a measure of Jjustice’ to quote the words of the re- publican plank. In the states both parties have endorsed their national | political program, and the democrats have even added a specific suffrage | plank to their state platform. After this political acknowledgment we feel in a very secure position, No man who has been elected on a party ticket to the legislature can fail to support the further extension of the suffrage to women in this state with- out repudiating the pledge of his party which he has accepted as hi or else repudiating the pledge of hi party which he has accepted as his o relse repudiating the constitution of the State of Connecticut and the Declaration of Independence which are at the very foundation of our commonwealth, These documents state that all political power is in- speak in favor of woman suffrdge and | se | is your sure p | | | | “I Am Happy to Be Working for a Reunited Party”—Charles E.
