ARE WOMEN PEOPLE?
"Magna Charta merely fashionable fad of ye Barons."—King John.
"Boston Tea Party shows American colonists to be hysterical and utterly incapable of self-government."—George III.
"Know of no really good slaves who desire emancipation."—President of the United Slaveholders' Protective Association.
Another of Those Curious Coincidences
On February 15, the House of Representatives passed a bill making it unlawful to ship in interstate commerce the products of a mill, cannery or factory which have been produced by the labor of children under fourteen years.
Forty-three gentlemen voted against it.
Forty-one of those forty-three had also voted against the woman suffrage bill.
Not one single vote was cast against it by a representative from any state where women vote for Congressmen.
