 Oct. 4, 1910

j- The Advie ry Committee - ~ 4 first meeting September 30
at National Headquarters, with a morning flflfi an afternoon eeeeion.
The lieoueeion was enthheiestio and the cryetalization of Opinion
ere significant of the progress of the Suffrage neveuent.

There were present Anne Howera Shaw, Mary Hutcheson Page,
Harriet Burton Laidlae, Lucy E. Anthony, Caroline Lexow, Ida Hueted
Harper, Katherine Hougtton Hepburn, Edith Houghton Hooker, and

Merv were Bennett. Mrs. Catt, Mrs..Bletch and are. Arexehuer were
obliged to fieoline seriing on the Committee on account of the pres—
eure of other work.

Mrs. Belmont, Mrs. Ivins ?”a FLL? 3 * are members
but were not present.

Mrs. Page was cheeen Chuirman and Mrs. Bennett Secretary.

The morning seeeion gee devote! to retorte on successful me
methods of Suffrage work, and the afternoon to the discussion of the

points made on the letter sent by the Preeieent to the States,which

wee publiehed tn the Women's Journal of September 24th.

Mre. Leidlet reportefl on the method adopted by the Women
Suffrage Perty in Greater New eork, and brought out the following
points;
The Party has reached t oueende of people heretofore un-
re chad by the work of Suffrage clubs.
The Party hrs worked in cordial co—operation with local
Suffrage Associations of various sorts.
The plan of eurollment without dues has resulted in un—

precedented strength and numbers.

 

 3

Party work has been supportei cy subscriptions and do—
end is now considering the systematic raising of nanny
in preportion to the membership in such uiStrict.

The Party finds its work in Gloss touch with municipal
housekeeping problems,- as for ins ence, - in response to a
request from the East giee mothers, resolutions were pasted at
a istrict resting in yrctost against the closing or the
Strzi‘agzss Milk D6301}.

The Party is absolutely nonapertisun politically. It
has accepted the use of election lietrict headquarters from the

political parties, but accepts from all, impartially.

In response to 3 question as to whether it yes increasing~
1y easy to find suitable women for cistrict leaners, captuins and
xerking workers, Mrs. Leiules replied that it use,» that mien
takes were mtee and inefficient people not infrequent, but that
on the othr hmfi2hnnd, a marvelous number of capable women had been
found, many of whom had been hitherto inexperienced and untrained.

The work is educational in every way. Mrs. Laidlaw was
asked if sue thought there was anything in the nature or construc—
tion of the Party which woull pgevent its being applicable over
the country in other than congested places like large cities.

She replied that she believed tie plan was entirely applicable tp

country districts as well.

Miss fierce reported on the subject of the Suffrage proces-

sions, as exemplilied by the demonstration lust Spring. The ex-
penditure of relatively little effort was well worth while. The
aim was to bring pressure upon the New York Senate to discharge the
Judiciary Committee. That action was taken three days after the

parade.

 

 Mis Antheny advocated advertising our Heady
magazines.

Mrs. Page reported the success of the "revival" method
erri d on ‘ Massachusetts this pas t summer, by which a corps pf
speakers and workers has spent a week in each of ten manufacturing
towns, following and improving on, the program adopted e2 :pe ri:'nental—

.gp Hes diuurte'e were Opened and the
meetings held several times a day, hundreds of thousands of fliers
were distributed, .trll mentor of people rewx hed, unlimited free ads
vertising given by the newspapers, hundreds of names were enrolled
and ell for less than $800.

The great su cess of tle summer's work in Massachusetts
to the s agestion of developing the same plan for the National
A sociation, whereby, instead_of sending outlwndiv1dual organizers
W10
the National sho d send a corps of workersAtohhd join for a cer~
tain period the State workers, and do concentrated suffrage work with

political
vie ew to developing oroani zation bv neiitini districts.

The question of membershi-p withput dues was enthusiast cel—
1y discussed, and the sense of the meeting was that the time has come

when that will be the next wise step in the progress of our organi-

Mrs. Hepburn gave a most interesting report of the work in

rd, Conn. in buying COMHGl cial advertising space in the de ily
‘to advertise suffrage meetings. She showed specimens of the
advertisements, half pages and whole pages. Th liar tford Club
raised the money for a year's contract, thereby getting reduced rates
She e sti znetei that the cost of bringing a half page of good suffrage
argument and notice of r suffrage meeting to the attention of each
family was only .0018. Money for specific undertakings of this

sort is easily raised. E_definite result has been the change in

 

 4/

in at itude of the "Hartford Courant" toward suffrage. It used to be

violently Opposed, but is now ready to give space to articles and
estimony in favor. The public has been convinced by this method
suffrage must be surely coming, or it gguld not adopt commer-

advertising.
Mrs.McCulloch sent by mail a very inter sting report of

the suffrage automobile speaking trips in :1 ‘- during the summer.
There have been six tours of rom four to eight days in length. By
taking collections at meetings -: . . a " . loaned in one ins
stance, and having several donations, theye were able to turn money
into the treasury at the end of the season. It took three or four
speakers steadily. The results were unlimited newspaper attention
including favorable editorial comment, suffrage brought to people

who never thought of it before, respectful attention and Openly ex~
pressed.wonderment that women knew so much about Illinos politics,
many enrollments, and the promise of men to voteonlv for suffrage

legislators.
After earness cons.deration and discussion it was voted

to recommend to the rational Board the plan of non~dnes paying po~

litical.district organisations,insteed of organization by dues—paying

Clubs.
It was also voted to recommend to the Board.that the Na~

tional Shall do its orgamizing through a group of workers sent to~
gether,the dies being that a group can do more effective work than a

5

single person, as has seen demonstrated in the states where this

method has been tried.
It was voted that the reports of the meetinrs of the Com—
.L 6

m t ee be printed in the Woman‘s Journal,instead of being mailed to
the State officers as was originally planned.

The next meeting will be on December let. All members of
he Association are invited to send in reports of subjects for dis~,

cussion. 7% ‘Zaalc CQDL¢-9¢;;7~\\
