SUFFRAGETTES TO BOYCOTT
FIFTH AVENUE MERCHANTS
New York.—One hundred and
fifty thousand suffragettes are form
uiating plans to boycott all the
Fifth avenue stores in the event of
the council passing the anti-parade
ordinance, which would prevent
the women passing through the
streets in propagating their policies.
The suffragettes feel that the
Fifth avenue --tores are responsible
lor the introduction of the ordi
nance, and vow they will make
them sorry for it. On the other
hand the storekeepers say the boy
cott is un-American, and they are
shocked that the women should
suggest it.
