Georgia Women Drive Efforts for State Legislation
Women leaders in Atlanta push for three bills in the Georgia legislature. The Winnie Davis memorial dormitory at the State Normal School in Athens seeks a 6000 appropriation, aiding both rural youths and cities. Georgia’s exhibit at the Louisiana Purchase Fair also draws female support, with Mrs. Henry Porter as commissioner. A public lecture by Prof. J. Fitts on women’s enfranchisement is planned at the Carnegie Library by the Atlanta Equal Suffrage Association.
