If it finally turns out that it is a great principle they are working to carry out, then they have only to bide their time with the rest of the for . eijfn and native population, and wait for careful, diplomatic action on the part of the people and fhe Government. Force of circumstances requires them to play a waiting game, like the rest of the population. H. E. Harvey, in art article for the Westminster Review, maintains that , women have lived for thousands of years subject to social systems and cus toms made up principally of a collection of wrongs. He champions the aggres sive campaign of women against the old order of affairs in the following: "But now those women who dare to make complaint of existing social insti tutions are told that they wish to over throw morality and order and introduce a state of chaos. The question is: Are we living just now in a state of morality and order? Are there no social abuses that need to be rooted up and done away with? Are there no social laws that press unjustly on the hitherto silent part of the community? Now that so many complaints have been made, all these questions ought to be considered As women have, on the whole, obedi ently conformed to the character which was required of them for six thousand years or so, I think that now that they have begun to announce publicly that they have opinions of their own, they are due, at the very least, a fair hearing."
