Bettina Borrman Wells, of London England, advocates for militant methods to achieve women's suffrage and Harriet Stanton Blatch, of New York, argues for a more conservative approach through legislation.
Wells was a member of the Women's Social and Political Union, who traveled to New York City, where she formed the American Suffragettes. She wanted the American movement to be as public and dramatic as the one in England.
