t of President Wilson's visit to the convention. Among those
submitted by the Committee on Resolutions, Mrs. Alice Duer Miller (N.
Y.), chairman, and adopted were the following:

Whereas, all political parties in their national platforms have
endorsed the principle of woman suffrage, be it

Resolved, That the National American Woman Suffrage Association
in convention assembled calls upon Congress to submit to the
States the Constitutional Amendment providing nation-wide
suffrage for women.

Whereas, the Democratic and Republican parties in endorsing the
principle of woman suffrage have specially recognized the right
of the States to settle the question for themselves, we call upon
these parties in the States where amendment campaigns are in
progress to take immediate action to obtain the enfranchisement
of women, and in other States to take such action as the suffrage
organizations deem expedient.

Whereas, honest elections are vital to good government in this
country and to the decisions in the campaigns for woman suffrage;
and

Whereas, public records of all funds used in political campaigns
will benefit our movement in that they will bring to light its
real opponents, therefore

Resolved, That this convention urges the passage by Congress and
the States of a thorough and comprehensive Corrupt Practices Act
providing effectual punishment for offenders.

That in recognition of Miss Clara Barton's lifelong support of
woman suffrage, as well as her service to the country in founding
the American Red Cross and standing at its head for more than a
quarter of a century, this association endorses the bill recently
introduced in Congress providing for an appropriation of $1,000
to place a suitable memorial to Miss Barton in the Red Cross
Building now being constructed in the city of Washington.

That we express our profound sympathy with the women in the
countries now at war and our sense of the advance that has been
made in the cause of all women by the devotion, ability and
courage with which those women have risen to the new demands on
them.

That we express our deep appreciation of the great honor the
President of the United States has done the women of the country
by coming to Atlantic City especially to address this convention.
