July 38. T.ndy Abcnlecn, wife of the former Viceroy of India nnd president ot the International Congresq of Women, parsing through this city on her way to Prague today, strongly condemned the militant suf fragettes of Knglnnd nnd pointed to the United States as tho country where women nre getting the fran chise in the proper wny. "flood and proper behavior," she told the United Press. "senible talk ing and legal action will take no much farther along the road toward what wc are nfter, than will militancy. But it U not for mc to sit iu judg ment over my Knglih sisters. They are sincere. They mean well, nnd I hope they win. But I can't help see ing that in the United State, where violence is unknown nmong the wom en workers, we are winning our fiuht. "One is led to believe that njMii rending of the militancy of the Bri tish suffragettes, that we are striv ing for votes for women solely. That is not true. There nre o mnnv wny iu which women can help in the af fairs of.everydoy life. Were she per mitted to work with men on boards, both political nnd social. I am sure her influence would be for good." "What do you think of Mme. Dieu lafoy's proposal to tench women to take the place of military clerk", etc., during wnr, thus liberating fighting ment" T.ndy Aberdeen was nked. "That seems to me to be going a little far," she replied. "The true role for women is that of the peace maker, not the warrior. I firmly be lieve that were women permitted to share the burdens with the men in the governing bodies of tho world, wars would ultimately cease. There are always a liberal proportion of male legislator in every country opposed to wnr; these, supported by women's votes, would always be in a majority. And have you ever thought of just what flint would mcanf "In the first place the cost of liv ing would be reduced. Taxes would be lowered. Armies nnd navies would exit only on n greatly reduced scale. Standing armies, 900,000 stroncr. idlipg away their time, eating food bought for them by the people, wear ing clothes which other people Iinvfc bought for them would not exist. These men, instead of consuming nlone, would produce nt least $2, 000,000 a week or $130,000,000 a year. Yes, the woman should, nnd would, be a peacemaker. "Votes for women is only one of the many things wo nre striving for.' FE EXCURSIONS FOR ST. ST. LOUIS, Mo., July 18.
