I will do it, Mr. Chairman. The Chairman. Miss Jane Addams, of Illinois. The committee has several resolutions before it, House joint resolution 201, introduced by Mr. Raker, of California, House joint resolution 198, introduced by Mr. Lafferty, of Oregon, House joint resolution 91, introduced by Mr. Taylor, of Colorado, House joint resolution 213, introduced by Mr. Berger, of Wisconsin, House joint resolution 87, introduced by Mr. Mondell, of Wyoming, and House joint resolution 17, introduced by Mr. Rucker, of Colorado, all relating to this same subject; that is, the proposition to amend the Federal Constitution to provide for woman's suffrage. I may say to the ladies who have been accorded this hearing that this committee heretofore, on similar occasions, has not limited the ladies as to the time they wished to use in putting their views before the committee. We have, I think without exception, heretofore given the ladies a whole day on this subject, and the committee has the permission of the House to sit during the sessions of the House. With that statement, I will say to the ladies the committee will hear you this morning until 12 o'clock, and then the committee will take a recess for lunch and for a brief attendance upon the House, and then they will come back after lunch, at such time as may be agreed upon by the members and by the ladies advocating these resolutions. At this time I may say, Miss Addams, you may proceed in such manner as you ladies have agreed upon. I suppose if you have made any allotment of time, that you will advise the chairman whenever any speaker has consumed her...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Woman Suffrage: Hearings Before the Committee on the Judiciary; House of Representatives, Sixty-Second Congress, Second Session; February 14, 1912 Dr. Walker. My address is 602 Fifth Street NW. The Chairman. The committee will be very glad to hear you, Doctor, on the subject that you asked a hearing for the other day, and that is on the proposed amendment to the Constitution providing in some sort for woman suffrage. Dr. Walker. The proposed amendment is as follows: Article XVIII. Section 1. The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the Unit ad States or by any State thereof on account of sex. Sec.2. Congress shall have power, by appropriate legislation, to enforce the provisions of this article. Mr. Chairman and gentlemen of the committee, in the first place I hold that Congress has no jurisdiction in this matter. In the next place I am going to show how women have always had equal rights with men, not only since, but before we had the Constitution of the United States. The chairman invited the ladies present to take seats on the bench beside the committee. Dr. Walker. Mr. Chairman, that is chivalry, that is gallantry; but my coming before you is not. I get my rights from the Constitution of the United States, and I am very thankful that this committee has allowed me to speak sooner than they designated, on account of my being a business woman and having engagements, so that I could not be here next month at the time stated. Heretofore before I wrote the Crowning Constitutional Argument it was supposed in Congress and in the States that it was merely a matter of chivalry and gallantry for women to be heard, but when I wrote the Crowning Constitutional Argument I dug out the fact that it was the right of every citizen to petition. Before our Constitution was framed, in New Jersey - I do not know whether or not there are any New Jersey representatives here, but I hope there are - New Jersey made considerable trouble. She was a seaboard State and she could invite or allow foreign nations to come to her shore, and the United States Government was so small at that time that they had not ships enough to cover the whole coast, and therefore the framers and adopters of the Constitution of the United States kept friends with New Jersey. It may not be known to everybody, but it is a fact that when this was a colonial form of government the women in New Jersey voted, and so they did in Maryland. And it was their established right. After the Constitution of the United States was adopted they continued to vote unmolested until 1844. Then in New Jersey - I am not going to tell you the law because it is not fit to tell - they wanted to pass an act that they knew the women would never elect them to the legislature again, if they did pass it. And they passed it, and they turned around and passed an act that the women should not vote any more. Very well - they did not understand their rights fully or they would nave come up to the Supreme Court of the United States and had their rights restored. In Maryland there was a woman named Margaret Brent. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
