- Description:
- A two page editorial in The Woman Citizen describing the constitutional situation in Tennessee which made calling a special session of the legislature to act on the ratification of the 19th Amendment difficult. After detailing the struggle, the article states that "Tennessee seems to be quite all right, thank you." It is followed by the announcement by Governor Roberts that the special session will convene on August 9th.
