(GIRL DIRECTING Gertruds McHugh Takes Worres 0f Tom Taggart's Mind Roston, Oct. 20.—Tom Taggart, ill in a hospital here, isn’t worried be- cause he cannot be in Indiana to di-| rect the democratic campaign. As long as Gertrude McHugh is on the job he knows that he will not be missed. Every day Miss McHugh calls Taggart on the telephone to let him know the political tide turns in the Hoosier state. Miss McHugh carries the title of secretary of the Indiana state demo- cratic committee, but in truth she's “the whole works.” KEven before Tom Taggart became ill she ran democratic affairs in her state, Probably no other woman in America holds so much power in her own domain. With her ascendency there approaches an era of feminine political bosses. Tom Taggart will tell you that in all Indiana there is no man who knows his politics as thoroughly as this young woman. And there isn‘t a democrat, republican or progres- sive in the state who doesn't take off his hat to her, literally and figura- tively speaking. “State issues will decide the fate of the national tickets in Indiana this year,” she says. “We are go- ing to elect Dr. McCulloch governor | and he will carry Davis with him. We believe we will have full sup- port from the negro voters because we have interested the negro wom- «n in politics, “In Indiana the democratic party does not recognize sex. not discriminated against, given speclal privileg, nor is she Once she woman.” It was Gertrude McHugh who or- iginated the “fifty-fifty” whereby women were given equal | say with men in state party politics. By means of that scheme 3000 wom- en wera enlisted in active cam- paign work as regular members of the state organization. This new “petticoat boss” horn in a family of politicians.
