Washington February 28 Congress has begun earnest review of suffrage with a sub committee led by Hobson to decide whether equal suffrage and presidential election should be settled by constitutional amendment or by state action.

Supporters back a constitutional amendment though some favor leaving it to states to avoid issues in the South. Proponents cite Rosalie Jones and her army crossing the Mason Dixon line into Maryland where some local women joined in bearing banners reading Votes for Negro Women.
