Senate Defeats Woman Suffrage Vote In Filibuster
In Washington on June 27 anti suffrage filibuster blocked the Senate from voting on the federal woman suffrage amendment. President Wilson favoring passage, but several party members opposed as Senator Ollie James was absent ill. Leaders warned a pair was needed while suffragists could not spare two votes for a two thirds requirement. After two hours of speeches, Senator Jones withdrew the motion, delaying the issue until the supply bill and war appropriations advance. Prominent suffragists and observers including Emmeline Pankhurst and Carrie Chapman Catt attended, while both pro and anti groups filled the galleries.
