Suffrage Delayed by Appellate Court Proceedings in DC
Opponents of woman suffrage gain a temporary setback as the District of Columbia Supreme Court refuses an injunction blocking Secretary Colby from promulgating the suffrage amendment. The court says it cannot certify to the U.S. Supreme Court without a final appellate ruling. Roberts certifies action to proceed on suffrage. In Georgia, Atlanta hosts a state committee session on enfranchising women with plans for open or closed hearings. A proposal would allow enfranchised white women to vote in the party primary after a pledged qualification and a special female registration at polling places.
