Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt. presi
dent of the National - American
Woman Suffrage association, today
wired the congratulations of the
National to its Vermont auxiliary,
the Vermont Equal Suffrage asso
ciation, in annual convention at St.
Albans, over the Vermont prospect
of ratification which has developed
following the conference of Gov
ernor Clement and Senator liar-
uing.
Headed by Mrs. Lilian Olzendam,
chairman of ratification, the Ver
mont Equal Suffrage association
has been working for months to
induce the governor to call the spe- I

made to convince him of the keen
interest of the women of the state
took form, it will be recalled, in
the delegation of 400 women from
every corner of Vermont who, un
der the leadership of Mrs. Olzen
dam, waited upon him in the early
spring to present the case for a
special session.
Mrs. Catt's telegram read;
"Heartfelt congratulations to the
Vermont Equal Suffrage association.
For Governor Clement to call spe
cial session will have effect of a
glorious crown to top the effective
work for ratification done by the
Vermont suffragists."
Mrs. Olzendam has reported to
the National Suffrage association
that, basing on a poll of Vermont
legislators, there is no doubt tha
the legislature will ratify when the
governor gives it the opportunity
To the quqestion. "Does favora

to say:
"The ratification campaign will
be closed whenever and wherewf
the 36th state ratifies the federal
suffrage amendment. True, there
must be a promulgation of the
amendment by the secretary of
state, but according to reliable in
formation the promulgation is not
in itself the crux of ratification'. It
is merely a matter of form. For all

may try to block the operation of
the amendment even after 36 state
have ratified. Hiding behind wom
en's skirts, that same little coteri
of politicians who successfully in
terfered to prevent the submission
of the 19th amendment in the 65th
congress and did' their best to block
its passage in the 66th. are plan
ning to the limit of their ability
to interfere with the machinery of
the amendment even after the 36th
ratification. Unfortunately our
processes of government are deli
cately poised and lend themselves
readily to litigation. It may be.
therefore, that some inhibitive pro
gram of litigation will be projected
by these selfsame politicians.
"We, however, are resting confi
dent on the assumption that anv
such litigation will come to imme
diate grief on the rock of the su
preme court's decisions. As a mat
ler of fact, that court's decision,
as already recorded, discounts in
advance any such program of inter
ference which may be contemplat
ed. "It has been a long, long trail
but always victory has been inevi

THEY HAVE TO PAY THE FIDDLER NOW!
One of the great Eastern Diamond Broken has sent us a beautiful selection
of clean-cut, flawless stones of bona fide value $50,000.
Understand us well! We did not buy this choice and charming chest of
cheerfulness! They just sent us the stones and asked us to get the bare cost
out of the goods for them. And bare cost means WHAT THZ3T PAID A
COUPLE Or YEARS AGO I
DO YOU SEE WHAT IT MEANS?
Like many other brokers they have gorged themselves with goods, knowing
full well that the stuff would keep on increasing in value. It was a fine bet,
all right only one little tiny rift in the lute in order to grab all the precious
stones in sight they had to give their notes away beyond the limit of their
safe and sane credit tone.
AND THEN THE BANES CALLED THEM!
A very polite call Oh, certainly. But there is only one answer MONET!
And that is why we find ourselves in charge of this imposing array of the
highest intrinsic values of the realm. The Diamond are here various sixes
and weights the brokers' old tag on each is just as they were packed in the
East and we are pledged to send a check daily for stones sold at these
brokers' prices, LESS 20 PER CENT.
Do not complain next Christmas about the high cost of Diamonds. The"
chance is HEBE and NOW! And please don't sympathise with us! This
funeral is decidedly not ours! We have played safe all the time and we are
not kept awake worrying about the profits that this broker is NOT going to
get. But we do like to see our friends and customers take advantage of a
real opportunity when it affords itself.
