No Cells For Suffragists Cases Postponed At Police Court
A police court judge postponed 48 suffragists’ cases after Helena Weeds pleaded to withdraw collateral, while Assistant District Attorney Ralph Given asked for time to review witnesses and potential charges. Miss Alice Paul and supporters argued arrests were unlawful and that no permits were required in parks. Demonstrations are planned nationwide as the fight for women’s suffrage continues amid war-time labor involvement.
