If a referendum vote is called ba prohibition, that is, if the will of the people is to express itrelf in favour of prohibition, then it would not be forced."
"I hesitated long before consenting to stand as a candidate, as I am 0763. whelmed by the responsibility, which, under the circumstances, will rest upon ime as regards the Plymouth womankind
and my busband's work.
"I have no personal'ambition to enter Parliament but when representative Plymouth men and so many Women friends through most touching personal appeal, asked me to stand, when, in spite of my own personal misgivings, my hus band told me I could assist the cause we have at heart, I felt that there was only one course for me to take.. ~

"During the was I worked for the soldiers and sailors and their wives and children as well as for others deserving. and I now ask them to work for me that I may work for them in Parliament.
