NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, AUGUST : e ASTOR CHAMPIONS WOMEN'S RIGHTS Jonsts With House of Lords in Their Interests London, Aug. 25 — Lord Astor, like a knight of old—but a knight in modern dress and with modern ideas of political chivalry—six times | has jousted with the House of Lords for women's rights six times been defeated, but always comes back smiling and ready to fight again. The American-born peer of Eng- land, whose Virginia-born wife, Lady Astor, was the first woman to st in the House of Commons, has battled for years to secure for peeresses in their own right the legal power to sit in the House of Lords. Just now the champion of titled feminism is smarting under a re- cent defeat, but already he is planning another assault the smug forces servatism. Most Exclusive Club For the House of Lords is old-fashioned body. Even more than the American Senate, it con- siders itself the most exclusive club in the world. You must be born into it or else be projected into it, on the recommendation of the Prime Minister and the O. K. of the King. Anyone, weak his mental qualifications, who is the eldest son of a Lord, becomes upon the death of his father a member of this heredi- tary legislative body. Among comparative outsiders are the cemmoners who were raised to peerages in the recent past be- cause they brewed a lot of beer or distilled a lot of whiskey, or contributed very large amounts of money to the campaign chests of the old political parties. Of course, there also are com- moners who were made peers for other reasons. They were dis- tinguished generals or admirals, a few who rendered great services te the state in civilian fields, and some politicians who are kicked up-stairs. Regardless of whether the Lorcs are of ancient or modern vintage, the majority of them seem to bt against women sitting in their aug- ust midst. Three years ago they beat Lord Astor by only two votes. Recently they beat him by four votes. But before they did £0, they had to listen to some plain speaking from him and some of his supporters. Women Gain Other Rights He said it was outmoded to con- tend that peeresses in their own right should not sit in that house in a day when every woman over 21 nad a vote in Great Britain: when a woman could sit on the throne of the country as its heredi- tary ruler; when fifteen women were serving in the House of Commons, and one in the cabinet; when they were Lord Mayor of important cities, and also serving on county and city councils and other important governmental bodies. An objection an was raised that the women's point of view was very different to that of men, but that was one of the very reasons why their presence in the House of Lords would be an advantage. He caustically said that some of the “Noble Lords" seemed to re- gard their House as a sort of club, subject to the blackballing of those they did not desire to admit Lord Hanworth, in opposing ‘Astor, probably let the real cat out of the bag when he said if they were to grant admission to women on the same terms as m by creating peerages for women in their own right, the succession would be to the daughters and not only to their sons. Then the die- hards proceeded to kill the m ure Viscountess ccal and iron the leaders in nition, when app defeat shrugged and said “It is just one scme of the men to to themselves as lonz as po We will go right on fighting, Those who against are voting against the trend of mod- crn events and they know it. The last two times they have won only by a few votes. The time will lccme when they will not win.” Dominions Take Lead Miss Florence Underwood, etary of the Women's Federation [League, said “There is no hope of convincing cme of them before they but hey will die off in time. It is hey who make Britain lag behind her progressive dominions. None the latter excludes women from ts upper legislative house. Sooner br ‘later Britain will have to fol- ow suit."” Besides Rhondda, -Britain's queen. and one of this fight for recog- rised of her latest shoul more vote for keep their club vote sec- Rhondda, Lady others ho will have a seat in the Hou‘fl‘ ¢ it ever becomes a House of Lords and Ladies, are the bt Fife, Countess Roberts, elder haughter of the late Field Mar- hal, Earl Roberts; Countess ave, widow of an ex-Lord Chan- Viscountess Wolscley, a of the late Ficld Mar- Viscount Wolesey; and the Beaumont.
