Franchise League and circulated by the thousands.
This is a Statewide campaign drive, so do your part by fully carrying
out the following program: 1. On Saturday June 30, an auto tour must
be made in each county. Start these tours in every town where there is
an organized league and proceed through the county, distributing
flyers, posting bills and making ten minute speeches in every town and
village. 2. Sunday, July 1, is Woman Citizen's Sunday throughout the
State. Ask that forceful appeal be made from all pulpits urging every
woman to recognize and discharge her new citizenship duty. The clergy
of all denominations feel the importance of this step--you will find
them ready and willing to cooperate. 3. Push registration of women
during the week of July 4 as a patriotic measure. Secure favorable
mention of woman suffrage in all speeches. 4. Close the week's
campaign by a mass meeting of all local women's organizations,
including clubs, lodges and church societies. 5. Secure all the
newspaper space possible for this patriotic week. Publish this entire
program and report its progress daily to your local papers....
