Acknowledgments
Throughout the past eight years during which this inventory was created, many individuals have contributed information that was vital to the completion of this finding aid and to the research upon which it is based. For all these contributions both large and small, I am extremely grateful.
This inventory would not exist were it not for the long standing support and encouragement of Glenna Reynolds , former Head of Adult Services Department, and
David Slivken, current Head of the Department. Also I'd like to thank Nancy Horlacher and Sue Steinke, both Dayton Collection Librarians, for their assistance in centralizing the collections; Sherry Walters for her assistance in typing many of the scrapbooks, Carol
Dalton for doing most of the physical conservation, and last but not least, Ann Olszewski,
Preservation Librarian at the Cleveland Public Library, for her generous willingness to share in microfilm form all of that Library's holdings describing the suffrage movement in
Cleveland, Ohio.
Finally, to all the people who contributed each in their own way, to this publication.

Preface
The distribution of published archival finding aids makes our cultural heritage available to a wider audience. This inventory introduces the profiles of two organizations:
The Dayton Woman Suffrage Association and the organization that succeeded it, the
Dayton League of Women Voters. The collections profile the suffrage movement from l867-1920, and the League of Women Voters activities from 1920-present, using a variety of materials acquired by the Dayton and Montgomery County Public Library, through donation from these organizations or from Dayton Librarians who were themselves active in these organizations.
This inventory marks the 150th anniversary of the Women's Rights Movement (l848-
1998) which include women suffrage. The active participation of women from Dayton and Montgomery County in both the Woman's Suffrage Association and the League of
Women Voters, forms a valuable record of the progress of all our citizens toward full participation in the political life of our country.

HISTORICAL SKETCH
The years of the progressive era, from 1900 to 1917, were about to include many political, economic and social reforms in American life. The "Woman Suffrage" movement was one of these reforms, for progressives viewed it as a "viable means of achieving significant social reform". The term is applied to the right of a woman to vote for candidates for "public office and on all public questions, and to serve as elected government officials".
In the United States, the first great political movement in which women played a leading role after the American Revolution was the Abolitionist movement of the first half of the 19th century. Prominent women such as Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Stanton organized in 1848 the first Woman's Rights Convention which opened at Seneca Falls, New York, and held its concluding sessions at Rochester, New York. This and succeeding conventions over the next decade received the support of many prominent males such as Horace Greeley, editor of the New York Tribune , and witnessed the development of the celebrated collaboration between Mrs. Stanton and Susan Bronwell Anthony. Their joint leadership of the struggle for Woman Suffrage contributed greatly to the furtherance of the movement.
In Ohio, the suffrage movement developed slowly despite the fact that many prominent leaders such as Tom L. Johnson, Mayor of Cleveland, Samuel M. Jones, Mayor of Toledo, Washington Gladder, pastor of the first Congressional Church in Columbus, and John H. Patterson in Dayton, all had worked very hard to endorse woman suffrage during the progressive era. Ohio women first organized in April of 1850, at the second Woman's Rights Convention held in Salem, Ohio, where several resolutions were passed to have woman's rights incorporated into a new Constitution for Ohio. But the Constitutional Convention included no provisions for woman's rights, and with the coming of the Civil War, people's interests and priorities changed. After the Civil War, however, the Ohio State Woman's Suffrage Association was organized with Mrs. Frances M. Casement, from Cleveland, Ohio serving as the first president. In 1889, Mrs. Harriet Taylor Upton from Portage County, Ohio, was elected as president of the State Woman Suffrage Association; she traveled throughout the state, helped organize fifteen local suffrage groups, including Dayton, and aided many other communities through correspondence.
In Dayton, a Woman's Suffrage Association was first formed January 12, 1869, in 9
the county court house. Judge Samuel Boltin was elected president. The life of this organization was short, however. The last recorded minutes were April 4, 1871. In 1887, Dayton Equal Rights Association with Dr. Madge Dickson as president was formed. The organization adopted the Woman's Journal and the Woman's Tribune as their major reading material. However, Daytonians were unenthusiastic and after one year, this organization also failed. Apparently, Dayton women of that day were just as indifferent toward woman suffrage as other women in Ohio and the USA.
On June 11, 1912, many women met in Dayton YMCA to secure "the suffrage amendment to the Ohio Constitution". A suffragist from Boston by the name of Mrs. Mary Gay, came to Dayton to help organize a suffrage association. During this meeting Mrs. Oscar F. Davisson, wife of a prominent lawyer, was elected as president of the Woman's Suffrage Party of Montgomery County and remained in office until 1920 with the ratification of the 19th amendment. Mrs. Davisson was very highly respected, not only by Daytonians, but also by Mrs. Upton, who trusted her in many instances with secrets that she didn't reveal to the other members of the Executive Committee.
Many women from Dayton's upper class served in the Executive Committee, such as Mrs. James Robert and Mrs. Valentine Winters. Miss Electra C. Doren, daughter of the editor of the Cincinnati Enquirer , worked for the Dayton Public Library from 1880 until 1905, and in 1905 she became director of the library at Western Reserve University in Cleveland. She returned to Dayton after the flood of 1913 to help rebuild the library and stayed until the end of her life. She is credited with acquiring much of the present collection.
The Woman's Suffrage Party of Montgomery County had its headquarters at the Victoria Theater building in Dayton and met regularly; it had many committees to share the work and responsibility. Many speakers from all over the US were invited to speak in Dayton by Mrs. Davisson. The campaign efforts of 1912, however, failed; on September 3, only 24 out of 88 counties approved the Woman's Suffrage Amendment 23. Opposition came not only from the liquor and saloon interests and recalcitrant foreigners, but also from apathetic or outwardly antagonistic women. Many upper class voters were also opposed.
On October 2, 1912, the organization changed its name to "Woman's Suffrage Association of Dayton and Montgomery County". Mr. J. Patterson offered office space in the Schwind Building in downtown Dayton. Very little is known from late 1912 through most of 1913, probably because of the Great Flood of 1913. The campaign of 1914 for a new suffrage amendment to the Constitution met with the same fate as in 1912. The same reasons given for the defeat in 1912 applied in 1914 as well, except that the liquor interests were much more active in opposing equal suffrage in 1914. They reasoned that woman suffrage would give the prohibitionists even greater political power in their 10
campaign to outlaw liquor.
In 1916, the electorate of Cleveland approved a suffrage amendment to the city charter, which allowed women to vote in all municipal elections and hold any municipal office. Subsequently, women obtained suffrage in Lakewood and Columbus. In 1917 there were high hopes that the Ohio legislature would pass a bill, introduced by Rep. James A. Reynolds, that would grant women suffrage for presidential elections. The House of Representatives passed the Reynolds Bill by 72 to 50, but Montgomery County representatives, all Democrats, voted against it. Immediately after Senate passage of the Reynolds Bill, petitions were organized for a referendum on a new statute-to-be. Governor Cox signed the measure into law on Feb. 21, 1917. Suffragists took their case to the Ohio Supreme Court, but failed to stop the referendum, which on November 6, 1917, struck down the Reynolds Bill.
The women in Dayton and generally in Ohio were little discouraged, however, because the national movement was gaining success. Women of Dayton worked very hard for the State Association to help make money through their "White Elephant" sales and help terminate the debt of the state organization.
In 1918 the 19th amendment or so-called Susan B. Anthony Amendment had appeared before the House of Representatives and was passed by an exact two-thirds majority; however, Ohio's Representative Louis Gard voted against the bill. Later that year, the amendment failed by two votes to gain the required two-thirds majority in the Senate. But on June 4, 1919, on the third try, the Anthony Amendment was finally passed by the Senate. On June 16, 1919, the Ohio General Assembly ratified the 19th amendment by a vote of 74 to 5. On the same day, the Ohio Senate also ratified by a 27 to 3 vote. Both Houses also passed a presidential suffrage bill, again introduced by James A. Reynolds, which would ensure that Ohio women could vote in the 1920 presidential election even if the Anthony amendment was not ratified by the required thirty six states by then. The Montgomery County delegation in the Ohio General Assembly had several new faces as a result of the 1918 state elections, and these generally voted for ratification and for the Reynolds Facts Bill. But the fight was not over. On September 30, 1919, the Ohio Supreme Court decided that a referendum on the ratification of an amendment to the Federal Constitution was valid. But this was appealed to the US Supreme Court, which on June 19, 1920, ruled that there could be no state referendum on federal amendments.
Finally, on August 18, 1920, Tennessee became the 36th state to ratify the 19th amendment. Women's suffrage had become law.
The League of Women Voters, essentially an organization devoted to political education, was introduced by Carrie Chapman Catt, president of the American Woman Suffrage Association at the convention of the National American Woman's Suffrage 11
Association in St. Louis, March 24-29, 1919. Formal organization of the National League of Women Voters took place in Chicago on February 14, 1920, in conjunction with the Victory Convention of the National American Woman's Suffrage Association. Ms. Catt conducted the first national citizenship school right after the convention and many such schools were held everywhere in the nation. The organization also conducted a nationwide campaign calling for an international disarmament conference by President Warren G. Harding.
The local League of Dayton came into existence in 1921, under the name of "Women Voters of Dayton and Montgomery County". It followed the organization of the National League in 1920, as part of the great movement undertaken by the women of Dayton, including Mrs. O. F. Davisson, who had been working for suffrage in order to equip the newly enfranchised women to use a ballot intelligently. The first President of this organization was Mrs. N. M. Stanley(1920-32), and Mrs. Davisson was first Vice President with field secretary Miss. Charlotte Mary Conover, daughter of Mrs. Charlotte Reeve Conover. Mrs. Stanley who had been active in the suffrage movement, later became president of the Ohio League of Women Voters and during World War I headed the women's division of the Liberty Loan campaign in Ohio. People referred to her as "the real moving spirit in the suffrage cause."
The organization was strictly non-partisan and open to women from all parties. The stated goals of this organization were to promote education in citizenship, public welfare, efficiency in government and international co-operation to prevent war. The local group worked steadily toward these goals, carrying out the policies adopted by the National League of Women Voters and co-operating with all the other local leagues in Ohio as an integral part of the Ohio League of Women Voters. In 1921, the League of Colored Women Voters was organized and Mrs. Bertie Ellis of Homestead Ave. was chairman.
In Dayton, the League of Women Voters was involved in a number of programs and studies such as citizenship schools, county reorganization projects, city budget surveys, relief surveys, consumer projects, questionnaires, lecture series, trained personnel projects and radio projects. One of the best known speakers the League brought to Dayton was Judge Florence E. Allen, the first woman to win a place on the state supreme bench; she came to Dayton April 21, 1923, and spoke against war. Also, Ms. Carrie Chapman Catt came to Dayton February 3, 1925, and spoke for peace.
Among the monthly bulletins the Dayton League of Women Voters published were the Dayton Voter (1957-1962), the Dayton Woman Citizen (1922-1955), the Dayton Woman Voter (1955-1957), and the Voter (1969-present).
On April 20-29, 1922, the 3rd Annual National Convention and Pan American 12
Conference took place in Baltimore, attended by 1200 women representing 22 countries of the Western hemisphere. The conference was called by Mrs. Maud Wood Park, president of the National League of Women Voters, to consider questions pertaining to education, child welfare, and the status of women since the passage of the 19th amendment Officers of the Dayton branch of the League of Women Voters who attended by invitation of President Harding were: Mrs. N. M. Stanley, Mrs. Oliver D. Houck, Miss Charlotte Mary Conover, Miss Ella M. Haas, and Mrs. Joseph H. Crane.
Radio programs sponsored by the League were broadcast regularly over several area stations, including WSMK, WLW, WHIO, and WING. These were designed to increase public interest in voter issues and in various civic projects.
The active participation of women from the Dayton/Montgomery County area in both the Woman's Suffrage movement and the League of Women Voters is attested to by the enormous amount of material in both of the collections. Together they form a valuable record of a continuing story of the progress of our female citizens toward full participation in the political life of our city, our state, and our nation.

SCOPE AND CONTENT
From these records the women suffrage movement activities, in Dayton, Ohio, which gave women the right to vote, and the activities of the League of Women Voters, also in Dayton, which promote political responsibility through informed and active participation of citizens in government, are described in:
• Diaries and minutes of the Woman Suffrage Association (l867-1919);
• scrapbooks of campaign activities of the WSA in l912 and 1917; activities of the League of Women Voters 1920-1944;
• legal documents describing the differences of opinion surrounding passage of the Amendment (1913-1919);
• correspondence of prominent Daytonians and national figures involved in the activities of both organizations (1913-present);
• the printed materials for all activities of the League of Women Voters, such as conferences, conventions, meetings and newsletters, including newspaper and newspaper clippings (1922-present);
• speeches documenting the difficulties faced by the Federal Government in passing the Amendment (1920-1940);
• the photos, books and microfilms of both organizations (1912-present).
The importance of this collection lies in the following:
• these papers describe the suffrage movement in Ohio, specifically in Dayton;
• they illustrate their widespread activities through their various campaign activities;
• they give a picture of the many obstacles that the organizations faced during that time.
Women had to stand up for their own rights against the ignorance and apathy of other women, against a large population of indifferent immigrants, against religious zealots, and against the liquor and brewery interests. Many of their opponents were politicians and well-to-do citizens. The movement was an important step in the 14
advancement of human rights and is of national as well as local interest.

Folder #4, Correspondence to the members of the Executive Committee from Harriet Taylor Upton, 1917-1918

July 5, 1917 Apparently, the Executive Committee had a meeting in Columbus and considered the 31
question of a test case on the Referendum Law. Mrs. Upton, as a member of the Leslie Commission, feels that they should not ask for money from the Commission, but lay the case before Mrs. Catt by Mrs. Hauser.

January 22, 1918 Mrs. Upton, after explaining why the Lima and Dayton State Conventions failed, outlines a listing of things that have to be done to have more successful conventions and believes most of all that officers should make a serious commitment to this.
January 22, 1918 Mrs. Davisson makes arrangements for holding an Executive Committee meeting with good results; Mrs. Upton wants all members to express their opinion. Ohio made a poor showing in the House vote. Of course, no one was happy with the votes. (Votes in the Senate were eight out of twenty.) But, newspapers including Governor Cox's paper, are becoming supportive of women's suffrage.
March 27, 1918 Apparently, the Executive Committee met in Cleveland to decide on a special campaign enrollment committee and Mrs. Upton is reporting on the efforts to organize this 32
committee. She is open to suggestions. Also, she reports on activities in various counties.

Mrs. Upton did not want Ohio to pay the expenses.

May 29, 1918 Apparently, Woman's Suffrage Association in Cincinnati was always poor; at this time Mrs. Upton has been informed that Mrs. Gorman, a judge's wife, is willing to work for suffrage provided that the Hamilton County Association and the Committee of One Hundred for Suffrage work with the Women's Party of Cincinnati with her. Mrs. Upton is asking for input from the Executive Committee.
33
June 11, l918 Mrs. Upton writes that the Wets stopped an article written by Mrs. Hauser from being published in the Cleveland Plain Dealer, so there won't be any publicity on the National Amendment in Ohio. Also, she is sending a vote slip to be signed and returned approving $184.00 for the maintenance of two departments of war work. Finally, Mr. Croxton is asking her to write some kind of resolution that the Woman's Suffrage Association refrain from the use of wheat and cut out meat, etc. Their next conference is July 9, in Canton.
June 14, 1918 It is apparent that the President of the United States favors the Woman Suffrage movement in Ohio. Senator Pomerene's attitude, anti-suffragist, upsets Mrs. Upton and from her action, the senator is mad at her. Mr. Ed Moore has been converted to suffrage. Mrs. Davisson wrote a resolution which contained the signatures of Orville Wright and John Patterson.
June 20, 1918 Members have made definite arrangements for the Canton meeting. Mr. Frank Davis, the attorney who was assigned the case for the taxpayer's suit to test the validity of the proposed amendment initiated by the Ohio Home Rule Association, has found a man as plaintiff; his name is Mr. Edgar L. Weinland, who is Dry and not connected with the Anti-Saloon League.
June 21, 1918 Ohio is being asked to bring the case to test the constitutionality of the amendment, but who is the defendant in this case; is it the National Anti-Suffrage Association or the Ohio State Anti-Suffrage Association? Neither, it is the Ohio Wets. It is more likely that Senator Harding will vote for W.S.A. Reports regarding enrollment are excellent.
June 1918 Mrs. Upton is enclosing a financial statement. Cleveland, Toledo and Dayton are among the most active cities; Canton is doing well as is Lima. Anti-Saloon League is begging Mr. Davis not to proceed with the case in court until after election, but the Political Committee has decided to proceed anyway.
July 26, 1918 Mrs. Valentine Winters, a former president of the Woman's Party, accuses Woman's Suffrage Association of Ohio that Ohio has fallen down on its job. Mrs. Upton defends Ohio.

August 14, 1918 Mrs. Upton is enclosing the letter she wrote to the Governor and wants the Committee's opinion. She is writing also to Senator Harding and Governor Willis and she together with Mrs. Hauser is drawing the resolution. Note: The letter to Governor Cox is attached and is dated.
August 14, 1918 Mrs. Upton is writing to Governor James Cox after she found out that the Democratic Party in its convention resolutions will not endorse the Federal Amendment, nor suffrage, but only war measures. Her disappointment is very strong.
August 21, 1918 Mr. Reynolds ran next to the highest of 13 democratic candidates. He very much supports suffrage. Mrs. Upton is enclosing the letter that Mr. Reynolds wrote to Mr. Newton D. Baker. She is doing everything she can to make the two political parties endorse. Mrs. Upton signed the names of all the Executive Committee on some resolutions, and hopes that none of the Committee was unwilling to sign.
August 23, 1918 Mrs. Upton is going to be visited by Mr. Reynolds. Apparently, Governor Cox was not very supportive and Mr. Reynolds found out; he went to Mr. Baker, an editor of the Plain Dealer, and Mr. Baker promised to write an editorial.
August 31, 1918 Mrs. Upton is explaining everything that took place during the Democratic and Republican Ohio State Conventions with Mrs. Hauser and Miss Moriarty. They visited Senator Harding. A suffrage plank written with a resolution by a group of people was endorsed by the Republican Resolution Committee by sixteen to four. They wanted to see Governor Willis, but they were not treated as they expected to be. She felt that the Wets controlled the Democratic Convention and the Dry the Republican.
September 2, 1918 35
In this letter the wording of the Suffrage Plank in the Republican platform is written. Mrs. Upton thinks that they have to meet next in Warren.
September 9, 1918 Arrangements for the Executive Committee meeting in Warren, for Thursday, September 9, at 10:00 a.m., are made.

September 20, 1918 Mrs. Upton admires the successful enrollment work, shows concern for the financial situation and mentions ways to raise money.
September 27, 1918 Mrs. Upton is impatient at all the senatorial delay. She is mailing a copy of Mrs. Paul's letter and she thinks that Mrs. Paul dislikes the Woman's Suffrage Association. Miss duPont did everything she was asked to do. A P.S. at the end says that the Saturday morning newspapers say the suffrage amendment has practically lost in the Senate.
October 2, 1918 Mrs. Upton informs the committee of Mrs. McPherson's staying in Baltimore. She feels that many people who have done excellent work in the Association were not able to remain active. She is going to mount a campaign against Holden, a Democrat running for state Senator.
October 2, 1918 Discussions on President's speech and its negative effect to vote in the U.S. Senate. Mrs. Upton thinks that it was not wise to have forced this vote before the election and that this action is bad for Ohio, because if US Congressional ratification is pushed back then Ohio may be one of the last states to ratify instead of one of the first.
October 16, 1918 The county Woman's Suffrage Association presidents have been asked to protest against Senator Pomerene's coming into the state to urge men to vote for Wilson's policies since he did not vote for those policies in the Senate. President Wilson did not instruct the Democratic Party to keep everything but war out of the Democratic platform.
November 2, 1918 Mrs. Upton informs the Executive Committee of the publicity taking place in Ohio. Alice Vignos of the enrollment committee is working in Senator Holding's district and they made plans to defeat him. Senator Pomerene now knows how the women in Ohio feel 36
about him because they wrote some very bad letters to him. Attached to this letter there is a listing of points to be stressed in mass meetings and in publicity.
November 9, 1918 Mrs. Upton has not decided yet as to where the next meeting will be. Governor Willis insisted that the Republican Party declare for prohibition and suffrage; however, Dry Republicans were disgruntled with him. Mrs. Upton thinks that Governor Cox is not a good speaker and that he promises suffrage for Ohio just to become president. Legislative poll shows a majority for ratification. Political Committee feels that they did well to get 12 votes out of 22 in the House of Representatives on the National Amendment. Senator Harding is an anti. Senator Holden was elected. Mrs. Upton discusses the reluctance of the Ohio Supreme Court to discuss their case, but since the Drys carried the recent elections, she thinks that the Supreme Court will be willing to hear their case.
Folder #5, Correspondence to the members of the Executive Committee from Mrs. H.T. Upton, Jan.- Oct., 1919.
January 11, 1919 Mrs. Upton is writing a small summary of the legislative and congressional situation and believes that even those who were opposing until now will vote for the amendment.
February 11, 1919 Mrs. Upton tells the members of the Executive Committee about the unfavorable vote in the US Senate, and that one of the greatest aids in a political way would be the getting of woman suffrage in city charters. She thinks the militants have harmed the movement.
February 11, 1919 Members of the Executive Committee are informed of the next convention in Columbus.
February 11, 1919 The National Association thinks that it weakens the general plan (to win woman's suffrage) to have campaigns in states and have them lost; Mrs. Upton thinks that large cities play an important role for winning the suffrage because they have the money and workers are there. They need, however, the advice of the Committee on having a state- wide campaign on suffrage.
February 20, 1919 An amendment was introduced in the Senate by an unknown person that women shall vote exactly as men now vote, (a little different version of the previous amendment). This version will bring over some of the reactionary southern senators since the Negro question is eliminated. State affairs have taken another turn. Democrats lost their chance 37
to make political capital out of suffrage. Mrs. Upton in this letter really foresees the future for ratification.
March 5, 1919 Woman's Suffrage Association is asking the Ohio legislature to pass a measure providing for women watchers at the polls. Mrs. Upton is asking the members to attend the National Convention in St. Louis in order to be strong members.
April 10, 1919 Mr. Davis prepared the bill in regard to women watchers and asked Mr. Beetham to introduce it; Mrs. Upton doesn't think that this will come through. Some additional news about the Sandusky meeting are included.
April 25, 1919 Mrs. Reed replied to Mrs. Upton who asked her about having suffrage and enrollment brought up at the district meetings; she says that there is more enthusiasm for suffrage than ever before.
April 25, 1919 Mrs. Upton reports that at the Columbus convention it was unanimously approved that the Ohio Woman's Suffrage Association not ask the legislature to submit presidential suffrage or full suffrage because of the referendum that would follow. Instead, it was decided to work for the National Amendment. But then both Democrats and Republicans said it would be a good time to introduce it in Columbus because the passage of prohibition had distracted the Wets.
April 28, 1919 Mrs. Upton informs the members that although Mrs. Clatworthy is a big help, the enrollment situation for Springfield is pretty bad. Miss Mary Graham was able to gather pledges from Mansfield, Ashland and Wooster, total amount of $389.00. Also, they are trying to do more aggressive work on the press. Mr. Beetham told Mrs. Upton that he thinks that the women watchers bill will pass the Senate now that it has passed the House.
May 2, 1919 In this letter there are some explanations for misunderstandings created about the status of Enrollment Committee's work.
May 2, 1919 Ashland, now under the leadership of Mrs. F. Miller, is a suffrage county. Great progress in Cincinnati but it could be better if they had better publicity. During a meeting on April 30, Mr. McAdoo and Mr. Wenner were speakers with many converts into suffrage. 38
May 5, 1919 Report of Miss Vignos for developments in Springfield; Miss Clatworthy, a librarian in the Dayton Public Library, is a great acquisition for the suffragists; finally, 1500 names from Springfield were enrolled at the end with the help of Miss McCully.
May 12, 1919 Financial report is enclosed with this letter. The Political Committee met in Cleveland and decided to abide by the decision at the convention to focus on the National Amendment and not promote a suffrage bill at the state level. Next Executive Committee meeting will be in Springfield. Enrollment Committee works hard.
May 24, 1919 Apparently, Mrs. Upton was at Washington, DC and says that Ohio stands at the head of states in making gains for the presidential suffrage in the Senate and that Mr. Watson from Indiana will be the chairman of the Suffrage Committee and he'll do anything to push the measure for Mr. Hays.
May 27, 1919 Mrs.Pyke has been chosen as chairman of the Literature Committee at Sandusky; a vote slip is enclosed to confirm the nomination.
May 27, 1919 Mrs. Upton discusses financial matters. Coleman duPont, brother of Miss duPont, donated $2000 to the organization. Next two weeks are very crucial for all since the US Senate and the Ohio legislature will be deciding about presidential suffrage. Mrs. Upton thinks it is better to stay home and try to telegraph different important matters in order to save money for the Association. She is pushing for the Watchers Bill.
June 9, 1919 Mrs. Upton wants to have a meeting in Columbus, and stress the importance to continue enrollment.
June 11, 1919 Since the state ratification will be on the 16th of June, Mrs. Upton calls for a meeting in Columbus on June 16 and 17.
June 11, 1919 Apparently, the National Amendment was approved in Washington and Mrs. Upton is asking the members of the Executive Committee to write thank-you notes to Senator Harding, although he was not a suffragist, and also to write to Senator Pomerene, who voices the sentiment of the people of 1840, rather than the people of 1919. 39
June 25, 1919 Mrs. Upton is disgusted with the attitude of some militant individuals in the Ohio Woman's Suffrage Association for trying to get credit they don't deserve, such as Mrs. Alice Paul.
September 15, 1919 Mrs. Upton was informed by Miss Ethel Smith, Executive Secretary of the National Woman's Trade Union, that President Wilsonwill not appoint any woman to the Labor Conference in Washington. She wrote a letter recommending Mrs. Raymond Robbins.
September 30, 1919 Petitions for a state referendum on the Reynolds Act will be returned to the Boards of Elections in the counties after the election. Petitions are now being signed by unreadable foreign names and circulated by foreigners. Mrs. Upton hopes that the Supreme Court will be favorable for the petitions, then this will make it easier to defeat the referendum.
October 6, 1919 Mrs. Upton is very much concerned because the reports show that the registration of women voters in various cities for the November election is low.
October 14, 1919 Mrs. Upton wants to defer the convention until January to find out if the US Supreme Court is going to consider the constitutionality of holding a state referendum on a National amendment. She would prefer the convention be held in Cincinnati.
Undated A note from Mrs. Upton to Mrs. Davisson, stating that she agrees that colored women should have the same rights as white women or colored men, but that this issue should not have been raised at this time because it alienated some of the senators from the south.
Folder #6, Correspondence from Elizabeth J. Hauser, Chairman of the Ohio Woman's Suffrage Association Organization Committee, to Mrs. Davisson and to the members of the Executive Committee. August 8, 1917-October 1, 1919.
August 8, 1917 To the Executive Committee Ms. Hauser is reporting on the challenge of the Cuyahoga County Woman's Suffrage Association to the validity of the petitions obtained there for a referendum on the Reynolds Presidential Suffrage amendment. They succeeded in having 2902 names thrown out. 40
September 10, 1917 To the Executive Committee In this letter is an update on the challenge to the referendum petitions. Ten out of fifteen petitions in Trumbull County have been thrown out. Reports from Mahoning and Franklin Counties and for Toledo (Lucas County).
March 6, 1918 To the Executive Committee A report on who are the members of the Organization Committee and an appeal for names of possible candidates for the presidency of several county chapters.
March 23, 1918 To the Executive Committee She reports that Mrs. Upton has been ill and unable to report on the interview she had with the Governor. Mrs. Catt writes she does not know when the (US) Senate vote will come.
March 25, 1918 To the county presidents Ms. Hauser reminds them of the importance of preparing for ratification of the National Amendment once it is approved by the US Congress. She draws attention to the plan of work adopted at the last state convention and asks them to: 1) read the plan of work 2) write and tell her how much and what kind of continuation of the war work is important, but the suffrage work should not be neglected.
March 26, 1918 To Mrs. Davisson Ms. Hauser talks about the enrollment campaign. Mrs. Upton is feeling better, but is still detained at home because Mr. Upton is sick.
April 9, 1918 To Mrs. Davisson Mrs. Davisson has reported she has not been receiving her Woman's Suffrage Association Bulletin. Ms. Hauser includes 5000 enrollment blanks.
January 9, 1919 To the Executive and Political Committee. A report, at Mrs. Upton's request, on Ms. Hauser's interview with Mr. E. H. Moore and Mrs. Upton's poll of the state legislature. Mr. Moore is the National 41
Democratic Committeeman from Ohio. The purpose of Ms. Hauser's visit was to see how Senator Pomerene could be influenced to vote for the National Amendment Mr. Moore didn't think much could be done, that not even President Wilson was able to influence Pomerene. Mr. Moore asked her about appointing a woman from Ohio to the National Democratic Committee. She recommended Florence Allen. Mrs. Upton has decided to send Miss Mary Graham Rice to see if Pomerene's wife can influence him. The Ohio legislature is composed of 33 members in the Senate and 12 in the House. In the Senate, Mrs. Upton estimates 19 for ratification, 10 against, and 4 uncertain. A Senate vote of 17 is necessary for ratification. In the house 73 are estimated for, 31 against and 20 uncertain, with 63 required for ratification. Among Republicans, most are pro-suffrage while among Democrats, a slight majority are anti-suffrage. Mrs. Upton asks that this information be kept confidential. Only the statement that there are enough votes for ratification should be released publicly.
October 1, 1919 To Mrs. Davisson The Boss (Mrs. Upton?) is very busy so Ms. Hauser is responding to Mrs. Davisson's letter of the 27th. Mrs. Davisson has sent the last of the Dayton enrollment; she enrolled a total of 21,004 women. Mrs. Davisson reports on a rumor that the Supreme Court (Ohio?) will decide in support of the suffragists. This probably refers to the constitutionality of a referendum vote on ratification of a National amendment.

July 27, 1915 From the Executive Committee of the Woman Suffrage Association of Dayton and Montgomery County to the Women of Dayton. The Executive Committee urges all women to answer criticism that the majority of women do not care to vote, by turning out in large numbers to exercise their school franchise by voting for candidates for the Board of Education in the November election. An effort to arouse the women of Dayton to their responsibilities in this matter will be made at a meeting on July 31, at which Mrs. Dora Sandoe Bachman, a member and former President of the Columbus Board of Education, will speak. Mrs. Bachman is a practicing attorney with her husband, and is also a mother and housekeeper.
Page 47 On this Page there are ten cards with information pertaining to the campaign in Montgomery County, written by Alice Kile Neibel. The transcription is as follows. 1. Campaign work in Montgomery County 85
The campaign work began in Montgomery County on May 9 when a call was made for a meeting to be held on the 20th. This call was made by a self- constituted Committee of 12 persons. Miss Elizabeth Hauser represented the State Suffrage Association. During the pre-organization period nine out-of-town speakers did most excellent work, and the home workers were very active of course-getting out hand bills announcing their meetings. A monster mass meeting was held at the Victoria Theater on June 7th.
2. After organization on June 14, there were approximately 35 speakers who addressed Dayton audiences, and 16 who went into the county; in all they delivered about 150 speeches in halls, churches, clubs, parks, factories and on the street corners. 800 Cards were mailed to Dayton club-women to enlist their co-operation in our work. A booth was maintained at the Arcade with a woman in charge who sold and gave away great quantities of propaganda literature. Two boxes of slides and films presented by Mr. John H. Patterson, President of the NCR, were made use of, one set being sent to State Headquarters.
3. During the Summer, later two cablegrams were received from Mr. Patterson heartily endorsing it and giving substantial financial aid to Equal Suffrage. 128 large yellow placards were placed in Dayton street cars, with strong suffrage sentiments upon them from eminent Americans, and also the date of election and the number of our amendment. 5000 letters were mailed to the rural districts of the county. 180 letters sent to Dayton and Montgomery County ministers-Protestant, Jewish and Catholic, asking their active assistance.
4. 25000 yellow circulars were printed and distributed to Dayton factory districts to refute the 3 white ones sent out from Columbus over the State (Mr. Gilhooley). 23000 Dodgers were distributed to the homes of the city, which emphatically answered the one put out by our enemies called, “Reasons Why Women Should Not Vote.” On the Sunday before election leaflets were distributed outside the Catholic Churches printed with Suffrage endorsements from eminent Catholic Church officials. About 250 signs announcing meetings in the small towns in the county were tacked up.
5. A delegation of those most interested attended the Columbus parade Aug. 27. 400 Lincoln leaflets were distributed at the Colored Churches. About 30 packages of literature were mailed to places where it would do good. 30 subscriptions were sent to Woman’s Journal . 86
200 letters were sent to prominent men citizens of Dayton asking them for their endorsement of equal suffrage for publication, and contributions with which to carry on the campaign work. The response was encouraging.
6. Five full Pages were edited on alternating Saturdays in The Dayton Daily News , by our very able press committee. This was possible through the courtesy of the owner James M. Cox, Governor-elect of Ohio. In these Pages all the futile arguments and false statements of “our friends the antis” were most vigorously answered and refuted, by our able Press chairman Mrs. F. J. McCormick, Jr. These Pages proved to be of great educational value to the cause and about 3000 were ordered and distributed. More than 400 inches of advertising space were used in the 3 daily papers during the
7. last days of the campaign, the largest insertion being a half Page in the Sunday Journal of Sept. 1st. The three daily papers were very generous with space, and a great many contributed articles were printed favorable to suffrage. At 98 city precincts women were in evidence some time during election day and about 2400 election day cards were distributed by them at the 100 feet. limit in the city, in Oakwood Village, and at the National Military Home, and 14 packages containing in all about 1600 election day cards were mailed to
8. County addresses accompanied by personal letters from the assistant secretary. After the election the president and assistant secretary compiled two duplicate scrapbooks large enough to take in our full newspaper Pages; these contain clippings of all the publicity given us and bought by us, copies of leaflets and bills distributed to the public, and make a very fair history of the campaign. Submitted by Alice Kile Neibel Assist. Secretary
Note: The last two cards contain the following:
9. Oct 14 Dayton Women Have You Registered? Opportunity is Responsibility If you have not registered there are yet two more days when you can-next Friday and Saturday Oct 18 & 19th. This has nothing to do with suffrage. The men of the state have by giving us this vote, asked us to help them choose suitable men for the School Board. Women are in closer touch with school conditions than men. Let us rise unitedly to fulfill 87
this duty. Signed A Mother
10. Dayton Women show your interest-the schools by helping to choose the men who control them- Friday and Saturday are the last registration days. Register on those days. adv -; [?] 426 women registered for Nov., l912, 29, 358 men registered.
