CONNECTICUT SUFFRAGE NEWS.
Connecticut was well represented
at the suffrage meeting at-Mrs. '0. H.
P. Belmont’s on Wednesday. 'Mrs.
George H. Day of Hartford has long
been a member of the Advisory Coun—
;cil of the Congressional Union, and
has shown her inherent in the work
of the him by a regular attendance
at the meetings of the Council. Mrs.
Edward Porritt—also a member of the
Council was on hand, and was one or
the speakers at the evening session.
»-atisa_AAonie Eliot Trumbull of Hart-
ford was also present, and Miss
Edythe Wynne Mathison, Miss Elsie
Hill and Mrs. Weed of Norwaik, were
also actively present.
a. The convention began with a lunch-
; eon at .the Peg Wollington Coffee
House. The toastmlstress was Mrs.
John Winters Brennan who consent-
ed to serve in the place of Mrs. T. N.‘ '
Hepburn who was urgently pressed to
take. the office, but who felt that she
could not well be spared from Connec-
ticut at a moment when the fate (t
the sulfiage resolution hangs in the
balance. As is the custom at these
suffrage luncheons, the speaking he~
gun early in the course of the'lum-h,
and Mrs, Helen Hoy Greeley, Mrs.
Frank Cothren. Mrs. luau Milholland
Boissevaiu, Mrs. Jessie Hardy Stubbs,
Mrs. Rheta Shilde Barr, and others,
each responded briefly but effective-
I): to the toasts.
After the luncheon the women im-
mediately adjourned to the home of
ers. Belmont, on Madison ave-
nue. and at the business meeting
that followed. Mrs. Brennan noted as
" chairman. The most important mat-
iers under consideration were a
change in the constitution of the
Congressional Union and a consulta-
tion regarding the' plans of work for
the coming season. The constitution-
al change is necessitated by the enor-
mous growth of the Union, which now
has members in nearly every state.
Some form of affiliation was deemed
necessary and while the constitution
was kept as simple and free from
elaborate detail as possible organisa-
tion in the several states and aimin-
tion with the central body was made
'possible Miss Paul who has been
the head of the Congressional Union
since it developed out.- of a comhzittee
of the National Association, remains
asxthe leader with Miss lacy Burns as
her efficient ilieutenant. ‘
Jules Paul and Miss Burns both
moire at the evening meeting and an
“dress was also made by Mrs. Wil-
Ziiau Rent of California, wife of Reps
mentntive Kent. Mrs. Kent is best
hum for the very efficient work
the has done in connection with the
vl’anamn Exposition at San Francisco.
More important than the constitu-
tional change was the discussion of
the plans for pushing the Susan B.
Anthony amendment to the United
States constitution; This amendment
was first introduced in Congress in
1877. if was drawn up by Miss An-.
- 'thony and Elizabeth CW Stanton.
' and both these women had then been
working for the enfrauchlsement of
women for over a quarter of a cen-
tury. Ever since its first introduc-
tion it has been kept alive by the
National Woman Suffrage Associa-
tion but until last session it was nev-
er voted 'upon in the House of Repre-
sent‘a‘tives. The fact \that it receiv~
ed a vote of 174 in the lowox house
and a bare majority vote in the Son
ate encourages the suffragists to be
lieve that thevlong struggle is near-
ing an end, and that' within forty
years of its first presentation it will
have been"fltihed by threefourths of
the states and become part of the U.
8. Constitution.
The great strength of _the suffra-
gists in Congress at the present time
lies in the fact ”that they have behind
them the votes of women in eleven
States ‘for Congressmen and Senators
. and in twelve states‘for President.
. These wanten's votes are sufficient to
turn the balance of parties—to turn
out the Democrats and put in the Re-
publicans" the Democrats continue
to oppose votes Tfor women. Until
now the “women have ”been only sup-
plicants «citing the‘ favor of the man.
Now they appear as constituents 1v‘litli
' all the rights and dignity of voters,
and as the Congressional-Union has
succeeded in organising the women in!
every one of thousands-age states to
demand the Federal amendment, and
to put the cause ' of unenrranchls’ed

policyhit will be impossible for Cona
