Facts about the various laws passed within the eleven states that had woman suffrage in 1915 to demonstrate the progress made when women are granted the right to vote. Laws passed in these states included equal guardianship of children; eight-hour day for working women; child labor protection, widowed mother's pension, etc.
In Pennsylvania in 1915, voters rejected the referendum to grant women of the state the right to vote. Pennsylvania ratified the federal suffrage amendment on June 24, 1919.

Portion of an article written by journalist and writer, Ellis Meredith, entitled "The Struggle for Equal Rights" originally published in "Pictorial Review." Meredith enumerates the ways in which the lack of suffrage impacts women, including marriage and custody laws, inheritance laws, child labor laws, child literacy, and education.
The National American Woman Suffrage Association published a series of circulars written by well-known activists on the social, political, and economic reasons why women should be granted the right to vote. The circulars, along with novelties such as buttons, stationery, playing cards and other materials to advertise the suffrage movement were included in a mail-order "Catalog of Suffrage Literature and Supplies" produced by the NAWSA Literature Committee.
