MISSPANKHURST PREDICTS
BLOOD WILL SOON F t O W
IN SUFFRAGE W A R .
—o—
Miss Cristobal Pankhurst, active lieutenant to her mother In
the militant war, said In Paris
that bloodshed will follow in t h e
wake of depredation.
"We have not yet started,"
she said. "Hitherto our women
have destroyed only property,
but there is a greater revolution
to come.
"The methods we must adopt
are those taken by the people o f
the Balkans and in Mexico, where
people are slain daily in t h e
streets. Our cause is as great
and demands measures just as
drastic. The revolution — the
real revolution—has just begun."
London—Militant suffragettes set
fire to and destroyed the restaurant <
pavilion in the famous Kew Botanical
Gardens, in the heart of London's residential district. Two young women—
Lillian Lenton and Joyce Locke—were
captured by the police as they were
driven from their hiding place in tha
bushes by the heat of the fire. The
Richmond Fire Department had diffl-,
culty in saving other buildings in the
Garden, including the historical Kew
Palace.
T
When arraigned in Richmond Court
the women, at first defiant, grew violent and hurled books at the magistrate's head. They demanded bail,
but were refused. 'Miss Locke cried
out that if she and her companions
were sent to jail they would go on a
hunger strike and force the keepers
into starving them to death or releasing them.
The public attitude toward the suffragettes for their window smashing
and mail-box outrages and similar actions hag been shown by every shade
between angry indignation and hilarity.
Their latest performances at
Walton Heath and Kew Gardens seem,
to be awakening the people itr-soiBt>'
thing like a realization that the woman suffrage movement is drifting toward universal terrorism, with a possible sex war as its eventual outcome.
This view is helped- not a little by the
discovery through interviews that the
non-militant woman suffragists refuse •
to condemn these outrages.
The suffragettes have even gone so
far to direct their efforts at the royal
family, who, indeed, up to the present,
have entirely escaped annoyance, although it is said that the King and
Queen were recently grossly affronted
by a suffragette termagent The matter was hushed up by direction of the
King.
\
Queen Mary, whose views on
status of woman are pretty much j
those of the late Queen Victoria,
gards the militant movement with
testation and its executors with soi
thing akin to fear.
It is owing to the violence of
suffragettes that the lists of wome
