Much pleasure was expressed at the report of Mrs. Staatsministerinde
Qvam, president of the National Woman Suffrage Association of Norway,
who said in beginning: "Since we met in Copenhagen taxpaying women in
Norway have obtained full suffrage and eligibility to office by a vote
of 96 to 23 in the Parliament. About 300,000 women have become
entitled to vote. It is calculated that 200,000 are yet excluded,
although the tax is very small.... The object of our association is
suffrage for women on the same terms as for men. The men have
universal suffrage. We therefore will continue our work until the
women have gained this same right." Miss Eline Hansen gave an
interesting report of winning the Municipal franchise in Denmark.
