  • -  Prof. James Williams and Elizabeth Smith Miller arrange for Professor Max Eastman, Columbia University, to speak in Geneva on "Democracy and Women." Eastman, organizer of Men's Equal Suffrage League, analyzes suffrage arguments: justice good, but over-used; skeptical of purification of politics argument; democratic experiment requires participation by all men and women; but most important political activity will educate women, raise their status, and benefit both them and civilization. One in five women working in industry need vote to improve working conditions
