November 9th, 1918
DEAR CO—WORKER:
. As I said in my letter in the TimeSQDemocrat the day.
following the election, I Offer my hand.in sympathy to the women

of the rest of the state who hate been depriVed of their rights
thru the autocracy of-the-reigning powers of.New Orleans.

I was positiye we would win, and have been so convinced,
as many of you know‘ since the National.political condition was
-created which made it necessary, in order that the Democratic
Party whould win in 1920, that the women of the_United States he
enfranchised before‘that‘date.‘ ‘

When every.big man in the National Administration came
out for suffrage” 4‘4Wheh the Governor.and our Senators and all
ithe Congiessmen“egeept Mr. Garland-Dupre‘followed suit: When.w,,m-fimmr
Mr; Ewingt'the.3€ate‘National Committeeman; threw the influence ”
of hieratidhal poSition anon his two.neWS—papersu— it seemed to
me beyOnd‘humen belief that Mayor Behrman would dare to put him—
self agaihst such,a force and it was open that foundation I
built my conviction we would.win.. Never have I seen the old
proverb "Whomtthe QOdS would-destrOy, they first make mad" better
illustrated, for preSSure was brought from the highest circles to
bear upon Mr; Behrman; but, just as I said, the fear of the vote
of the REPUTABLE women o£.this city so obsessed him'that he.
defied eyery obligation to his party, the request of the party'
leaders; the demand of the white women to be raised to the'level
Ofi the negro: «, Every appeal. every gerson was disdained in
the arrbgaht surety that his bidding would be carried out by
the animated payroll of the City of New Oileans. - , '

1 .But there is no use crying over spilt milk} We havey'
.learaed much. We have the measure'of the Opposition;

If it had been under.di££ereht circumstances and the
country vote eould have been gotten out, we would have won.
‘Qflhat we have to do now is to start QHF,P1%QS IMMEDIATELY in
"hrder to be-ready for the 10920.,election7 and maybe a Constitu-
tiona1.Convention,.o: a special election before 1920. '

 

 Page 2"

, As I said we learned in New Orleans and I guess it
was true in the country, that thousands of men could not vote
because they did not have'their two poll—taxes for the two
years preceding the year in which the election is held - for
instance; to vote last Tuesday a voter had to have his poll
taxes for 1916 and 1917. If he only had 1917 and 1918 he was
disqualified. Most people have the idea that two years poll
tax is the only requisite — they do not understand that the
poll tax must be for two years BEFORE the YEAR in which the
electiOn is held. Now, to my point; In order that the men
of Louisiana may vote for Governor and Members of the Legis—
rlature in January 1320 they must have their polltaxes for
1918 and 1919. The poll tax of 1920 will not avail. and it
'13 just this misunderstanding — this deliberately encouraged
misunderstanding by the powers that be in control, that thou—
sands and thousands of voter: of good, but thOughtless men
are lost to the side of good government.

Between now and December Slat, 1918 the women of this
State must see that eVery man who has not paid his poll tax
"pays it and the only way to be sure that it is said is to go
,aftsr the dollar, get the poll tax and bring it to the man. You
can not rely on their promise to go and get it. They promise
in-the beef of faith but what to them seems bigger things fill
their minds and they forget until too late. There Were dozens
'Of man in New Orleans last Tuesday that felt like whipped
curs when they found themselves on the same side with the Ring.
_for the man who failed to vote helped the Ring.

‘ Here in New Orleans we join the Mans roll Tax League.
' The men haVe not the time to do this work, they have not the
tmoney to pay to have it done. There are hundreds of women who
will take a block in the business section and work it in this
way;- Go into each office, asking to‘see the MANAGER of the
store or office - Talk the necessity of every man having his
poll tax paid. Ask this Manager if HE will ascertain how many
men in his employ have paid ~ how many have not paid, .Will
he give the name and address, and advance the dollar for each
employee, charging it against the man's account. Decide upon
the day when you will return for this list and the money. Go
to the office of P011 Tax Collector, secure the poll tax and
TAKE IT BACK TO THIS EMPLOYER. securing a receipt. If this
is done all over the state. then there is some sense in hold—
‘ing campaigns and enthusing men, for when they are enthused
U they have the weapon with which to carry out their enthusiasm;
hut

 

 JOINT CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE

FOR‘ RATIFICATION OF STATE AMENDMENT FOR WOMAN SUFFRAGE

Whereas, National Honor, the platform of the Democratic Party, and justice to the women

Whereas, the General Assembly of I9 I 8 has submitted to the voters a suffrage amendment
granting women full citizenship rights;

We, the undersigned women of Louisiana, do hereby petition His Excellency, the Governor,
to urge by proclamation the adoption Of this amendment in the __best interests of the State and
the Nation. " v '4 » - ’

but what in the name of common sense is the use of a campaign
when men-are powerless to vote because they cannot comply with
the voting requirements? Of all the waste of time this is the
greatest.

. In New Orleans out of 437600 registered voters only
19,000 thought enough of their American right to exercise it,
and the general impression is many9 many of them had not paid
their ooll taxeso

Now, will you undertake to get as many women in your
.parish as necessary to pledge to do this work before the last
of the year? Find out from the head of your police jury what
method is employed in the parishes. I can not instruct you in

this,_but let me know immediately if I can DEFEND ugon Y 0 U
for this work“ If not, please say so DECIDEDLY, and if possible
suggest the name of some woman you feel could and would attend
*to it; Without this poll tax being attended to there is no use
of our attempting any campaign in 1920, for the City Ring will
again be there to beat us, and worse than ever. We must also
see that men are elected to the Legislature who are in favor of

Woman Suffrage - theuidea that any woman CONVERTU them is
absolutely silly.

We must also have a Convention of the Louisiana State
Woman Suffrage Associations i would suggest that it be held in
New Orleans in January. Will you please let me know if the
women of your parish will attend.n .There must be a decision

Amendment and work whole-hearteda This half way method of
doing things never yet got any body or any cause anywhere;
