Both Mrs. Rogers and Mrs. Kamm
were elected to the 1-ouse in 1925 to
fill vacancies caused by the death of i
their husbands, and they have since
teen elected to theu seventieth Cong-t
reess.
Last year Mrs. Langley, who is thez
one newcomer in the group, ran for
Representative from the Tenth Con-t
gressional (district of Kentucky to vin-
dicate her husband who was serving
a sentence in Atlanta penitentiary forz
conspiracy to violate the prohibitionz
law. Mrs. Langley succeeds A. J,9
Kirk, who was serving the unexpiredz
ter'm of her husband. She is the first
Congresswoman from Kentucky. Ornel
of her conistituents has described thei
Langley., thus: "John Langley wears
he breeches, hot the lady has th:
brains." Mrs. Langley is noft az
stranger to politics. She is the daugh-
ter of former Congressman Gudger, of
North Carolina.1
In general, Kentucky newspapersz
have ascribed Mrs. Langley's victory
in the election to "the inherent loy-

Nevertheless, Mrs. Felton's appoint-
went to the Senate at the age of 87
was a. tribute not only to the alidli-
ties of the woman herself but to all
American women. It showed definitely
that women are eligible to the highest
offices in the gift of tihe American
nation.
After her appointment, Mrs. Fel-
ton remarked: "England borrowed an
American-born woman to accept a
seat in the British Parliament, but
noble old Georgia experienced no
need to borrow, and' she alone, of the
48 states in the United States, har]
a Governor with courage to say so."
Mrs. Felton is; the widow of a for-
mer Congress3man from Georgia and
for 50 years has been active in pol-
itics. She was one of the earliest
advocates of the political adlvance-
ment of women, and in 1886 took the
stump in the interest of prohibititon.
"A strong nation," declared Mrs.
Felton, "is (dependenit upon its wo-
men, and the manner in which the
women of this country grasp tlieIr
opportunities will (decide most of the
great issues of the future."
