OVER SUFFRAGE Once a Customer Always a Customer Mational Congress Hears Tearful Appeal in Behalf of Votes for Women. WEALTHY LEADERS SCORED WAR ! .Delegate Has No Use for Followers of Anne Morgan and Mrs. Bel- mom Cause Is Finally Given. Vote , of Indorsement. CHICAGO. May 19 (Special.) In tones 3t appeal and supplication which sounded suspiciously cinee to tears, a woman's voice echoed tnrough Oriental Hall in the Masonic Temple where sat several hundred delegates to the National con gress of the Socialist party today. She was pleading for the recognition, of wo man suffrage by the Socialist organiza tion, and she started a conflict among those present that will not be forgotten, soon in the Socialist ranks. The speaker was "Comrade" Mils. Tuper Maynard. a woman of serious mien and, eloquent expression, and her remarks had such an effect on the assemblage that John G. Willert. of Ohio, the chair man, found himself unable for a time to quell the disorder that resulted. During the course of the tumult, woman suf frage was condemned by men spaakers, women ross in angry protest and dele gates all over the hall argued and quar reled. But what most aroused the women was the address of "Comrade" Joseph D. Cannon, of Arizona, who said that the women aspirants for the vote had them selves ruined their cause. "We-don't want members in the So cialist party who follow Anne Morgan, the daughter of the millionaire, who told the girl workers in New Tork not to mix with the Socialists," he declared, "and we don't want those who follow Mrs. Belmont. This woman has gained a lot of cheap publicity by espousing the suffrage cause, but we don't want any of her followers In the Socialist move ment." Mayor Seidel. of Milwaukee, after vain ly trying to restore order, ran his hands through his hair in despair and hastened out of the hall. The warring delegates, before adjourn ing at 1 o'clock, voted to adopt the re port on woman suffrage and the So cialist congress officially registered it self as advocating votes for women.

DO YOU want government by political doctors? When doctors disagree so constantly,'' should your choice be abridged by law, or by the ruling of a Department or Bureau? Do you want your health and hygiene to be regu lated by an army of United States inspectors under the direction of a medical bureau? - Do you know that there are five bills before the present Congress which, if passed, could be so used, and the concealed purpose of which is to give such powers to a national department or bureau or "officer" of health, and that the political doctors are making the final supreme effort to get one of them passed before the close of the present session? Do you know that the terms of ail of the bills are so subtle that such bureau or department could at any time take action according to its interests or prejudices without specific legislation while the moral effect would be to commit the United States Government to the establishment of a system of medicine, denying to the people the right to determine for themselves the kind of medical treatment they shall employ? , . Do you know that William H. Welsh, President of the American Medical Association told the Senate Committee on Public Health and National Quarantine that the Doctors wanted such a National Department of Health for the purpose of "influencing" the State and Muni cipal Boards of Health, and that he felt the Constitution could be so interpreted as to give the National Board the POWER to regulate health affairs nationally. .j Do you know that Prof. Irving Fisher, President of the so-called "Committee of One Hundred." which is ostensibly the moving impulse behind this attempt to secure this legislation, was unexpectedly confronted at the recent Senate hearing with a letter he had written to a physician asking for funds to push the bill saying that it was a project which, once started, would surely expand within a decade so that millions upon millions of government money" would be disbursed in carrying out the provisions of this legislation? To defeat this or any other such paternal, unnecessary, extravagant, un-American medical legislation is the purpose of The National League for Medical Freedom." Mind you, this League is not opposed to sanitation or quarantine properly administered and it makes no war on, and has no quarrel with the faithful medical practitioner of whatever school. Nor is it opposed to the needed work of the state, county or municipal authorities along these lines; but it is opposed to any clique of political doctors which seeks to dominate the legislation of state and national government for the purpose of increasing their power and furthering their own ambitions,- all under the pretense of the public weal. If you want the federal government to continue to attend to its own busi ness, the states to continue to attend to theirs and the political doctors to theirs, join this League..
