SUFFRAGISTS TO MAKE FIGHT IN LOUISIANA New Orleans, La, April 4—A fight oveér suffrage is under way in Loui- siana in view of the possibility that the state legislature may vote next on the question of ratification. Orders to help make Louisiana “the thirty-sixth state” went from suffrage headquarters today to leaders work- ing to round up supporters for the amendment which will be considered by the legislature at its session begin- ning May 10. A peculiar situation, however, has @eyeloped in connection with the fight in the announcement that suffragists themselves were divided and that many leaders in the movement were opposed to ratificatien of the federal amendment. Miss Kate Gordon and Miss Jean Gordon, widely known be- cause of their long fight for suf- frage, have conducteq cmapaigns in Louisiana against the federal propo- sal, holding that it violates state’s rights. Tt is their contention that each state should decide the issue for itself. But while there is some division in the ranks, leaders in the fight for rat- ification are highly elated over the fact that Governor-elect John M. Parker, who will take office six days hefore the legislature convenes, long has championeq the suffrage cause. In _his campaign Mr. Parker urged suffrage in nearly every speech. He helped draft the progressive party’s platform in 1916, with its suffrage plank. Gcvernor Pleasants has con- sistently opposed suffrage. Holdover members of the senate se are reported to be about evenly divided on the ratification question, with 75 new members hold- ing the balance of power. FUNERALS. Calvin S..Leonard.
