REMEDY FOR HIGH PRICES OF. FOOD IN SUFFRAGE.
Added Reason for Franchise in Pres¬ent Agitation, Political Study
Club Decides.
That the present high cost of living isan added reason for granting the ballotto women was consensus of opinion atthe meeting of the Political Study Clubyesterday afternoon at the national suf¬frage headquarters, 1823 H street north¬west.The club adopted the following resolu¬
tion:"Whereas the ballot is the weapon that
most efficiently governs legislation; there¬fore. be it"Resolved by the Political Study Club,
That we see in the present agitation otthe country on the subject of the highcost of living an added reason for theenfranchisement of the woman citizensof the republic."Mrs. Frances M. Gregory, president
of the club, presided, Mrs. \V. 13. New¬man was the secretary and Mrs. WilliamTindall treasurer ' Many members werepresent.A number of addresses were made
dealing with living conditions and strong¬ly urging the ballot for women. Amongthose who delivered addresses were Mrs.Hallie Abbot, Miss Armstrong, Mrs.Stone, Mrs. Berenice Thompson and Mrs.Faulconer. Three new members were en-roiled.Mrs. Berenice Thompson, Mrs. N-I. Stone and Mrs. Cira D. Thompson.Letters from Fred W. Carpenter, sec¬
retary to the President, and AttorneyGeneral Wickersham were read, showingthat the women in government office maysign women's vote petitions to Congresswithout fear of losing their positions.Mr. Carpenter's letter reads:
"The White House."Washington, E>. C., January 24, l'.MO."My Dear Miss Glllett: Referring to
your letter of January IS. I am directed¦by the President to send you the in¬closed copy of the-opinion ot the Attor¬ney General, in which he states that itdoes not seem to him that the petitionto Congress in favor of woman suffragefalls within the .--(rope of executive order1142. Very truly, yours
"FRED W. CARPENTER,"Secretary to the President."
The following is the opinion of the At¬torney General:
"Office of the Attorney General,"Washington. January 20, 1910.
"The President, the White House."Dear Mr. President: It does not seem
to me that the petition to Congress infavor of woman suffrage falls within thescope of executive order 1142. That orderwas designed to prevent subordinates oftthe different departments from lobbyingin Congress for legislation affecting theirrelation to the government, but I do notthink it was intended to prevent a clerkin a department from signing a petitionto Congress to enact general legislationaffecting the status of a large class ofthe community. Whether or not womenshould be allowed to vote is a broad sub¬ject, which does not Interfere with theparticular status of special employes inthe departments, and therefore, in myopinion, the petition referred to in MissGillett's letter does not fall within theprohibition of executive order No. 1142.Respectfully,
"GEO. W. WICKERSHAM."Attorney General."
