My dear Mrs. Nickuire-
The candidates of the National Progressive Party are pledged to work for equal suffrage. This means that during the coming campaign they will be expected to emphasize it in their speeches. Will you not, as president of a suffrage society, ask the individuals of your society to co-operate with us in reporting any candidate running on the Progressive ticket who refuses to endorse the suffrage plank? We feel this to be for the advantage of all believing in suffrage, and we hope you will aid us by your hearty sympathy and support.
Very sincerely,
Alice Carpenter Member New York State Committee
