he
National Association was notified that Arizona was ready for the final
contest and asked to send Miss Gregg. She came and again campaigned
the State and through her efforts every labor organization pledged its
support. Mrs. Alice Park of Palo Alto, California, came at her own
expense and took charge of the distribution of literature. Mrs. Munds
went to Phoenix and opened headquarters in the Adams Hotel and ten
weeks were spent in a most strenuous campaign. The National
Association contributed Miss Gregg's salary and expenses, nearly
$1,000, and $200 in cash. The rest of the campaign fund was raised in
Arizona with the exception of voluntary contributions from suffrage
organizations in other States. Dr. Shaw came and spoke for a week in
the principal cities, making a tremendous impression. The press with
one or two exceptions was favorable and gave generous space. The press
work was in charge of Miss Sally Jacobs and Mrs. Maybelle Craig of
Phoenix. State Senator H. A. Davis did splendid campaign work and
loyal men and women too numerous to mention gave freely of their time
and money.

On November 5 the amendment received 13,442 ayes, 6,202 noes, a
majority of more than two to one. Every county was carried. The vote

requirement.

The campaign was conducted without parades or demonstrations of any
kind and the saloon-keepers, not realizing the strength of the
suffragists, paid no attention to them until the closing days, then
suddenly woke up and put forth strong efforts to defeat them but they
were too well organized. The campaign closed with no deficit on the
books. Later a League of Women Voters was formed and Mrs. M. T. Phelps
of Phoenix was elected chairman.

The first State Legislature completely revised the civil and criminal
codes of Arizona and without any demand on the part of the women
incorporated some excellent laws for women and children. Since then
others have been added, partly through the efforts of women
legislators.

RATIFICATION. Women have taken so active a part and have been so
generally accepted in the political life of the State that it caused
scarcely a ripple of excitement when a special session of the
Legislature was called by Governor Thomas E. Campbell for the purpose
of ratifying the Federal Woman Suffrage Amendment. It convened at noon
Feb. 12, 1920, and adjourned at 9:30 p. m. of the same day. The
resolution for ratif
