4 By JOHN DICKINSON SHERMAI fOMAN against woman Is going to be the II the next constitutions ment battle. Curiously the buttle between forces of the newl; chised women voters fought over "equal rl women." Offhand a ti would suppose tha rights for women ws ly what nil women And e<iuul rights for in the general sense of the words, is wl forces do want. But. bless you, there's a tiun with u difference. "Anyway, congress will be asked to pass rights bill which is an amendment to tht tution. And the women voters are ap fifty-fifty on the proposition. At least I ulready arruyed in two hostile camps, tionnl Woman's party will take the offer the other camp possibly the leader is the League of Women Voters. In this camp the National Consumers' league and the Woman's Trude Union league. And the " organizations ure many. Do you remember, during the suffra; , paign. the women who picketed the Whit grounds and went on hunger strikes whe for that picketing? Well, those militant gists are the core of the National Woman After suffrage was secured they voted question of going out of existence. They to remain in the field and campaign ft rights for women In addition to votes ior The party was reorganized. Mrs. O. H. inont, a woman of large wealth and of s< sit Ion, was elected president. She made eontrlbutinn to the party. It has now pi the "Old Capitol" at Washington and i it the Watchtower for Women. This wat consists of a row of three old-fashioned, i stone houses. This row was used from 1819 as a meeting place for congress w capitol was being rebuilt after the des visit of the British during the War of 1S1 haps the watchtower may later be the hi lers of a campaign for a woman presiden way. It is the headquarters of the campi equal rights f<?r women. Miss Alice Paul, who has made a name self as a militant suffragist second to noni country, is the dominant spirit of the I Woman's party, And 'his equal rights I her fight. I The National League of Women Voter new name of the old National American ! association. It is th? direct descendant organization formed by Susan B. Anthony beth Cady Stanton and other famous worn in the middle of the Nineteenth century, not approved of militant methods. It has largely outnumbered the National Woman' of comparatively recent origin. Mrs. Cnrr! man Catt, a former president and now p of the International woman surerage assi is one of its leaders. Mrs. Maud Wood 1'a president. Miss Jane Addams is a vice p of the National Consumers' league. Mis Nestor is president of the National Women Union league. Now, both camps agree that the sect suffrage was only a flrs(t step In seeurin rights for women. The nineteenth uiU' to the Constitution reads thus: "The rights of citizens of the United Sta not he denied or abridged by the Unite< or by any state on account of sex." So the nineteenth amendment simply giv en citizens the right to vote. It does not g equality with mule citizens before the hn manifold uffairs of everyday life. It is i gerution to- say that both camps consl achievement of the vote as merely the b of woman's emancipation. Both camps li 110 woman will lie really ffee until every ity. legul us well as political, is removed. To bring about the removal of every c the National Woman's party lias been ci ing to secure the adoption by the state le of tlie so-called blanket bill. This bill i: lows: "Section 1.
