In the dhfs when some of us sacrificed *11 other possibilities of soda! service In order to give our whole time and strength to tty? sufferage movement, we werq sus tained' In this coarse by oor belief that In working for polftilcal equality wa were working for the fundamental principle upon which this nation w*a bullded, and thus In tho broadest sense, we wsrq belp- ing to make Its Ideals * reillty. We believed, too. that the ballot In the hand* of the women would be tho moat potent means of accomplish ing tho special end* of the variosa forma of social service In which ,4r» were Interested. Faith ifc Democracy: In mnch the ■ame way the faith la the possibili ties for good of democratic g6v- ernment, which la the foundation of the League of Women Voters, la a necessary answer to the disillusionment and the skepti cism of many men who have grown weary In well doing because'U has seemed to avail, nothing in the face of self-keeking and trickery In the conduct of public affairs. Let, os be thankful that we are hopeful, for abiding belief In what the whole people can and will do was never more sorely needed. 8olidiritiy of Women: Among i Kl^no. th<* removal of civil and legal discriminations on the ground of sex. It Is therefore well for them anil well for tin* community that owmen of all parties have an opportunity that women of all par ties have an opportunity to come together In an organization devoted solely to the Interests of women as voters and there take counsel to gether for the accomplishment of the interest!! of women aa voters ind there take counsel together for the accomplishment of their com mon alms, which are far more like ly to bo attained If a program Is outlined by an inclusivie group of ""mi'ii tluin tt-v would be if left solely to the initiative of political parties. Help to Men In Public Office: Another kind of service can bo rendered to the man In public of. fico, beset by seekers for peraonal favors, business concessions, or lo cal or sectional benefits, who soon- or later tends to forget that tho average citizen wants none ot those things because the citizen neglects to make It clear that bla desire Is for the oomgion welfare. To the publis servants who want to serve the whole people, the searchlight which maeli of our work turns upon th* doing of of ficials and law makers will bo $
