QUEBEC PREACHER VERY POINTED IN HIS COMMENTS Criticizes Province for Fail: ure to Give Women Franchise Montreal, Que. --Pointed comment on Quebec's failure to extend the franchise to the women of this pro- vince was contained in the sermon preached by Rev. K. M. Munro in the American Presbyterian Church, recently. "There are some people whose opinions we desire greatly to have on election day," he remarked. "There is the man who cannot write his own name, who hasn't the faint- est idea about the principles that underlie stable government. We want to know what he thinks on election day. There is the man whose vote can be bought for a dol- lar or two--it all depends on which gets to him first; we want to know what he thinks about the govern- ment of the country. There is the man who stumbles out of a tavern on election day, his small brain be- fuddled by drink. We think it im- portant to know what he thinks about the running of the business of the country. There is a man who runs a place as low as it can be run and be within the law--the only thing that keeps him from go- ing to the limit in vileness is the law of the land--but when election day comes around we want to know what he thinks. But the intelligent women of this province--their opin- ion doesn't count." He continued: "One of the things history seems to teach is that the most stable form of government is that which is based on the co-oper- ation of the largest number of peo- ple, not only the co-operation in respect of what they do but also in respect of what they think. There are many thirfgs in which our own province is well to the fore, but surely it is not a wise policy that says to the wives and mothers and intelligent women of this province: 'We don't think it is important what you think. Representatives will be sent to parliament to make laws and decide the policy of the country, but we do mot consider that you have any contribution to offer that would be worth while.' "Some day, surely, it cannot be far in the future, we are going to wake up from our Rip Van Winkle sleep, when we shall no longer ig- nore this'great body of our citizen- ship, when we shall say to the wo- 'men of our province in regard to the great questions which face us today: 'Tell us, therefore, what you Although Quebec Women with the necessary qualifications enjoy the dominion franchise, the Quebec laws deny them the right to vote in provincial elections.
