Last week the New York City Federation of Women’s Clubs had an clection at the Hotel Astor. Several hundred women attended, The | for the presidency was close. The campaign manager for Mrs, de Rivera, the successful candidate for president, was Mrs. Sarah Dick- | | | inson Lewis. Since sh® elected her candidate, while other candidates | on the same ticket were defeated, Mrs. Lewis is entitled to speak as a | successful woman politician, The result of this election has been to convert Mrs. Lewis from a suffragetie to an anti-suffragette. Before the meeting she believe that women should be allowed to vote at all elections. Since her expe- Tiences she has come to the conclusion “that woman is unfit to vote.” | At the Federation election some women, instead of making an X in the space before the name they wished to vote for, where they espe-| cially disliked an opposing candidate would draw several black penct marks through her name, Instead of dividing on questions of prin- | ciple or polic 'y voted according to their likes and dis b Mrs. Lewis found that the women took the election too much to heart. They re- garded the con- test as personal, The strain on their nerves was too great. The ex- citement was up- setting. There was a great deal of feeling aroused. Unless the majority of wom- en really desire to vote why should the mass of men be urged by the minority of wom- entogiveall women suffrage?
