ETECTElTBirWOHET?
Ole Hanson, the new mayor of Seat
tle, and one of the really unique char
acters in the political history of the
west, says the women elected him, and
that he intends to see that a woman is
added to each board and commission
in that .city just as fast as vacancies
occur. So far he has added them to
tht Park and Library boards, and to
the board that has to do with architec
tural requirements.
"What's the matter with those sen
ators up there," says Mayor Hanson,
"that they don't come through with
the suffrage amendment? Women are
better citizens than men. They are
more intelligent yes, I mean it They
are more particular who and what
they vote for; they are more indepen
dent. The women of this country are
entitled to full suffrage; the federal
amendment must be passed."
Recognizing that the cost of living
is proceeding on the principle that
there is always room at the top, Mayor
Hanson has raised the salaries of 3000
city employer. $15 a month and set
$105 as thp minimum salary for sten
ographers. Seattle is one of the towns that in
tends to "come clean." Immediately
after hit- election last spring he called
a conference of leading men and wo
men and they took up the subject of
prostitution, abatement laws, fines,
imprisonment and all the old futile
methods of dealing with this ancient
evil. They are having, a bill drafted
which will be submitted to the next
legislature. It deals with this matter
in a practical way and, they believe,
will secure beneficial results.
