Summary: | Wallace also encloses a letter from Carrie Chapman Catt, in which she recommends that Wallace ask the Alabama Equal Suffrage Association to publish his essay ("Woman Has Won the Right to Vote: Let Us No Longer Withhold It from Her"), though she does not feel it is suitable for the national organization: "It whacks rather hard at the Republicans and consequently as a non-partisan organization, it would not do for us to print it in just the form it stands. However, as a southern Democrat speaking to southern Democrats I appreciate that it is 'good, hot stuff.'" |
