March 10, 1928 WINNETKA TALK Women Voters The Winnetka League of Women Voters has been fortunate in secur- ing Dr. A. R. Hatton, a member of the Political Science department of Northwestern University, to appear on the program for the conference on "Federal Measures" on Monday, March 2 BR Hatton, who will speak on "Fed- eral Aid" at this meeting, has not only a deep knowledge of the science of politics but has also had experience in the practical side. In 1912 he wrote the Constitutional Amendment of Home Rules for the State of Ohio, which revolutionized ernment in the United States. After having drafted the new charter for the city of Cleveland and having suc- ceeded against bitter opposition in hav- ing it adopted, Dr. Hatton served on the city council for four years to aid in making this experiment in an ad- vanced form of government success- ful. Dr. Hatton is a most interesting speaker and his experience in both the theory and practice of politics makes him an independent, fearless guide to- ward bettering our government. Plans are going ahead for the candi- dates' meeting to be held Monday eve- ning, March 26, in Rudolph Matz hall at Community House, under the auspices of the Winnetka League. Acceptances have been received this week from Mrs. Harold Ickes of Hub- bard Woods, Lewis B. Springer of Wilmette, Leroy Zaleski of Des Plaines and James O.
