Women's Anti-Suffrage Association of the Third Judicial District of the State of New York (Albany, N.Y.)
Article written by Mrs. W. Winslow Crannell, Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Albany Anti-Suffrage Association, in response to a speech given by Chauncey M. Depew, lawyer and President of the New York Central Railroad to a graduating class of women law students from the University of the City of New York. She argues that women have all of the rights that they need and the right to vote would not necessarily make things better, particularly for women workers.
