Uf i 1 1 The Ledger is in receipt of the following letter from the Kentucky Federation of Women's Clubs and publishes same by request You, of course, are aware that the Kentucky constitution can be changed only by the General Assembly adopting by the afiirma-tive vote of twenty-three Senators and sixty Representatives an amendment, which must be submitted to and approved by a majority of the voters at the next succeeding election for members ol the Legislature.

Without further changes the women of twelve states will vote lor Presidential electors next year, and the question is a lead ing issue in many other states. Beginning with the granting of suffrage to Wyoming women in 18G9, popularity of the idea has grown so that in the women of twelve states, having nienty-one votes in the electoral college, will exercise Presidential suffrage. A large majority, (the women and more than half the men), of the voters in states having ninety-one electoral votes, are anxiously watching the action of political parties of sister states where women are not yet enfranchised. You niny oppose or be indifferent to woman suffrage, but you certainly are wide awake to secure success for your party next year. Will you overlook the opportunity to secure the good will of the women voters and a majority of the men, who have endorsed woman suffrage in twelve state of the Union Do you consider it wise, when your approaching state convention will sound the keynote for the campaign, to take the chance of incurring the ill will of the voters in twelve states You are not being asked personally to endorse woman suf fragc, nor to commit your party upon the question.

You only are asked to pledge in your platform that your Senators and Representatives will vote for the submission of an amendment to have a referendum upon a popular and growing issue. At the general election of this year New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey will vote upon woman suffrage. In New York the Legislature without a dissenting vote endorsed submission. In Iowa. South Dakota and West Virginia will decide the question The Legislatures of Arkansas and Tennessee have taken the first step toward submission.

Shall Kentucky be a laggard? The Federated Women's Clubs of Kentucky, numbering members, unanimously adopted at their recent convention the resolu tion given below, and the members of Suffrage Leagues heartily join in the request. Will you not seek to have your party endorse the resolution in the platform to be adopted by your convention? Very respectfully, TUB SUFFRAOF SUBMISSION COMMITTEE. By Mrs. Mary Hubbard, Chairman, Resolution Adopted By Kentucky Federation of Women's Clubs. Resolved, That it is the sense of this convention thnt full suffrage for women is today one of leading issues for the decision of American voters and that it should he settled in Kentucky by 1he submission of a eonstitu-ional amendment at the 11)17 general election, That political parties In Kentucky earnestly be requested to adopt in their platform a plank pledging their members to the General Assembly to vote for tho submissiQii of a constitutional amendment granting full suffrage to women.
