MISS PANKHURST IN AUSTRALIA
MILITANCY MUST CONTINUE
Sydney, July 8 Miss Adela Pankhurst has ai rived here.
In the course of an interview she said that militancy was not ruioiog the cause. It was no use converting people by any other means. The whole Cabinet favours giving tho vole to women, with the exception of Mr Asquith, Prime Minister, and Mr L. Hareourt, Colonial (Secretary, simply for party reasons. The fear that women will constitute an unreckoned force at the elections keeps them from giving women tho vote. There was nothing therefore left to do but to continue the present means nntil they got tired of seeing law and order upset, and gave women the vote.
