Al though Tennessee's ratification of suf frage stood on the record of the house tonight as finally confirmed, a snarl of legal and legislative technicalities remained to be disposed of before action can be certified. Suffrage supporters who in the house overcame every obstacle, claimed full legislative triumph. They declared only a temporary injunction obtained by the antis prevented im mediate certification to Secretary Colby. Speaker Walker, opposition leader, and scores of his lieutenants, said the suffragists had ruined their cause and that should the courts hold ratification legal, the litigation would so delay the decision that the amend ment would not figure in the Novem ber election unless some other state ratified. 25 Lrgtnlators Evade Call. Meanwhile 25 legislators opposed to suffrage were in Decatur, Ala., evading service to prevent any legis lative action until a new legislature Is elected in November. They hurried across the state line in a body early today. The restraining order, .granted by Judge Langford, was returnable in five days. It was Issued on applica tion contending that under the state constitution this legislature has no power to pass on suffrage. Governor Roberts and other officials were for bidden to certify to Washington that ratification had been completed and speakers of the senate and house re strained from taking action toward ratification until the matter is heard by the court. Quorum Lacking? In House. When the house met today all suf fragists and a few opposition members were on hand. A rollcall showed 59 present, or seven short of a quorum. Speaker Walker declared a recess and ordered the sergeant at arms to arrest absentees. ' He reported none appeared to be here. T. K. Riddick, suffragist floor lead er, declaring action on suffrage was a federal matter and that the state laws as regards a quorum did not apply. moved that the Walker motion for re consideration be acted upon. Speaker Walker requested him to put the mo tion in writing. A brief recess followed while Rid dick was transcribing his motion and in the meantime the injunction pro hibiting certification was served on the speaker. Motion Finally Offered. Riddick finally offered the motion amended to provide that the house reconsider its ratification. Walker ruled the motion out of or der for lack of a quorum, and added -that the Injunction just served also stood in the way. On an appeal the house failed to sustain the ruling and Walker called Representative Joe Odle, suffragist, to the chair. Odie ordered a rollcall on Riddick's motion. Walker made a point of or' der that there was no quorum, but was ignored, and the suffragists defeated the motion to reconsider, , 50 to 9. Riddick then moved that the house transmit to the senate the senate joint resolution of ratifi cation. Again Walker made a point of no quorum and also challenged the right of the speaker pro tern, to put any motion relating to the amendment in view of the injunction. Again Odle ignored Walker, ordered the rollcall and the motion carried, 50 to 0, the antis not voting. Ad journment until Monday was taken Action Declared Illegal. Anti-suffrage leaders declared that the procedure could not be legal. Speaker Walker said that on that precedent he would be within his rights if he organized an automobile party of the bolting antis at Decatur, re-crossed into Tennessee and declar ing the five or six members a quorum. held a session and rescinded the ac tion of the house in ratifying. No power on earth would force him to sign the resolution under the PORTLAND BOY LEAVES TO ATTK.VD NAVAL, ACAD EMY AT ANNAPOLIS. Q V , " t I t fej " i 3 .
