Text

Isn't it evident that when mothers are represented in government and their opinions and interests are consulted, babies have a better chance? Isn't [it] proved that women with the ballot do not neglect their home and babies?

Giving the ballot to women not only helps them to do their own work more effectively, but actually increases the wealth of the nation.
