The governor, however, did not comment on the constitutionality of the legislatures act should a favorable vote be reached. The .question of constitutionality hinges on a clause In the state constitution which provides that action on a federal amendment must be taken by- - a legislature, the members of which have been elected after the amendment was submitted to the state. Members of the present legislature were elected previous to submission of the suffrage June 24 Assistant WASHINGTON, Attorney General Frierson has advised Governor Roberts of Tennessee that the legislature of that state could ratify the suffrage amendment without submitting tne Issue to the people. Mr. Frierson's opinion was based largely on the decision of the United States supreme court In th Ohio referendum case. In that case the court held that ratification of amendments could be had only by state legislatures or conventions, and that provisions of state constitutions that ratification be referred to a vote of the people conflicted with the federal constitution. Mr. Frierson, who U a native of Tennessee, ruled that the supreme court decision made Invalid that section of ths Tennessee constitution which provides (hat any action on a federal amendment mast be taken by a legislature, the members of which have been elected after the amendment was submitted to the state. Miss Alice Paul, chairman of the Woman's party, said today that Governor Roberts's decision to cal! a special session of th Tennessee legislature ts set on to ratification of the federal suffrage amendment, blit the call Is to take the form of a conference and there is to bt no picketing.
