Senator Simmons on the Federal Suffrage Amendment
Senator F M Simmons argues the suffrage amendment needs one more state vote for ratification and will likely gain momentum. He says timing matters more than opinion and North Carolina can only choose whether to permit women's vote this year or postpone to next year. He notes Republican leaders fear, Democrats expect, women will influence this year's elections.
