PROVIDE SCHOOLS FOR NEW WOMEN VOTERS “The outstanding though in women's minds today is thanibulness and 1e- lief,” said Miss Katherine Ludington, President of the C. W. S. A, after re- ceiving news of Tennessee's ratification of the Federal Suffrage Amendment. “A seventy-year struggle to make Amer- ica a democracy in fact as it was in profession, is successfully ended. Now we shall be on oi guard to see that our possession of the franchise is made secure—and that the necessary facili- ties are provided for the registration and the vote of the new women citizens. Governor Holcomb has promised that af- ter the 36th state ratified, he would call a special session of the legislautre to povirde these facilities, so Connecticut women are safe on that score.” “We shall immediately turn our at- tention to providing schools for ths new women voters and making plans for the formation of a League of Women vot- ers. “As to which of the major parties did the most toward our enfranchise- ment, I suppose there will always be a conrtoversy which can only be settled by an accurate study of their records —_— DOLLAR DAY SATURDAY, AUGUST 21st, 1920 Big Values In Qur Men’s, Ladies’ and Children’s Departments hite Star Clothing House Co.

This deadlock was broken at ast. When we learn which side broke t, we shall know which party actuaily took the decisive step in our enfranchise- ment. “As te Conmnmecticut—The of -the Connecticut Republican party have remained obstinately and uncom- promisingly ‘opposed. “It i due to them that we Connecti- cut women must always remember that we owe our enfranchisement to South- ern men—that we have come into the electorate by a back door with no aet of welcome or honor on the part of the men of our own state. When our legislature meets to complete the details of our admission, they will undoubtedly with none of the significance which it ratify—but this will he a greceless act would have had if Connecticut had been the 36th state. And the members of the legislature wiil remember that they owe this' memorable position in which they find themselves to the leaders whom they have repeatedly put back in pow- er.
