  Text Rückseite Stereoaufnahme: "A Suffrage Parade. This parade was a part of the long struggle for equal rights waged by the women of America. In 1848 the first Woman's Rights convention in this country met at Seneca, N.Y. At that time a wife belonged tho her husband. He had a right to all her property; he could collect he wages. The law compeled her to obey him and he had a right to whip her if he thought necessary. At that time women did not receive any but primary education and very few occupations such as needlework, typesetting, cotton mills and housework were open to them. Gradually all this schanged. First women went into schools and colleges then gradually extended their work into all kinds of employment and professions. In 1869 Wyoming Territory gave women the vote and Utah, Colorado and daho followed. In 1912 the Progressive party openly declared in favor of Woman's suffrage and in 1916 both Republicans and Democrats recommended that states grant it. By 1916 seven more stats did grant it and in 1917 New York gave women the vote. Then great pressure was brought to bear on Congress. In 1919 the amendment to the U.S. Constitution was proposed and in 1920 it was ratified by Tennessee making three-fourths of the States. The women of America owe a debt of gratitude to the great pioneers such as Susan B. Anthony, Lucretia Mott and Elizabet Cady Stanton. They were all womanly women, refined and intelligent, not a bit mannish nor coarse, The suffragettes of America never resorted to violence as the English did."
