	Unfortunately, it does seem that we have to guarantee these
sorts of rights.  Generally, if we believe in something so strongly,
we put it into writing of some sort.  In the twenties, people believed
that a sober society was what they wanted; hence *that* amendment
to the Constitution.  

	If we think women's rights are so important, then we should
have no problem putting this down for the record.
