Abstract

At a meeting of the Central National Society for Women's Suffrage, Maye Ashton Dilke spoke about "the claims of women to the franchise." Mrs. Morgan Brown said it was necessary for women to cooperate in order to gain the right to vote. She commented on Mrs. Lynn Linton's "wild women" argument and said that women should not be afraid of politics. Miss Henrietta Müller spoke about women in the East (especially India) and their struggle for more rights and emancipation. Mrs. Leeds "expressed her great pleasure at what she had heard."
