The fight ijj the senate is expected to be hard and close, but with the president's aid suffrage leaders are confident they will win the. necessary two-thirds there. Suffrage leaders planned a great demonstration in the house this after noon, when the vote is taken. Seats in the galleries wore at a premium early. Many sat through the . entire day to witness the first great victory anticipated after years of effort. Miss Rankin Speaks Washington, Jan. 10. A woman Jeanetto Rankin pleading the cause of "equal rights for her sex as a war measure, today began the debate in the house, expected to result in passage before night of the Susan B. Anthony amendment to the constitution. Cheered by hundreds of women who packed the galleries and applauded by enthusiasts on the floor, Miss Rankin proceeded in a calm, clear voice, and declared that votes against suffrage would lead the world to challenge America's creed of democracy. Here was the first speech of a debate which promised to continue until 6 o'clock. It was preceded by one of the most unusual scenes in the house cham ber's history. Early this morning long lines of women were before the gallery doors. Thousands were turned away when the galleries and corridors be came packed. Miss Rankin's appear ance, as leader of the republican suf frage forces, brought an ovation. But it failed to confuse her. 'How can we explain fo the -world,' she asked, "if the congress that voted to make the world safe for democracy, refused to gvie this Bmall measure of democracy to the women of the coun try?" "Today, as never before, the nation Heeds Its women needs the work of their hands and their hearts and their minds. Theii energy must be utilized in the most effective service they can give. Are we now going to refuse these women the opportunity to serve in the face of their pleas in the face of the nation's great need?" The house immediately after con rening started the debate. MARRIED MEN MAT JOIN. Washington, Jan. 10. Regulations for volunteering in the regular army have been modified for the period of the war to permit married men to join the colors.
