Christabel Pankhurst RARE hand written 6 page letter 31st July 1911 on Womans Social and Political Union letterhead to MP Noel Buxton regarding a Womans Suffrage Bill being a rival to the Circulation Bill and a speech. Noel Buxton. British Conservative politician who served in various Cabinet posts in the Conservative and National governments of the 1920s and 1930s. He was Secretary of State for Air during most of the 1920s. As Secretary of State for India in the early 1930s, he authored the Government of India Act 1935, which granted provincial-level self-government to India. Dame Christabel Harriette Pankhurst, DBE, was a British suffragette born in Manchester, England. A co-founder of the Women's Social and Political Union, she directed its militant actions from exile in France from 1912 to 1913. In 1914 she supported the war against Germany. CHRISTABEL PANKHURST'S BATTLE FOR FEMALE SUFFRAGE COMES TO A HEAD: Christabel was at this time running the Women's Social and Political Union, while her mother Emmeline spent most of her time campaigning in the provinces. Our letter was written by Christabel to the editor of the leading Liberal newspaper after Asquith's victory in the 1910 general election. The Irish Women's Franchise League had been founded in 1908 and was the most outspoken and public manifestation of women's discontent and radical feminism in Ireland; its primary aim being to secure women's suffrage within Home Rule. In 1910 a Conciliation Bill - whereby votes would be granted to around a million women - had been introduced to Parliament but had failed. Another was debated in May 1911. This had been passed by a majority of 255 to 88 votes as a private member's bill, and was promised a week of government time: 'Christabel, although full of doubts that Prime Minister Asquith would ever grant votes to women, nevertheless hoped that a settlement could be reached by peaceful means, since she believed that mild militancy was played out. The suspension of militancy, announced at the end of January, remained in force until 21 November 1911, apart from one week during 1910. When Asquith stated on 7 November 1911 that the government would introduce next session a Manhood Suffrage Bill that could be amended to include women, Christabel denounced his scheme as disreputable, and appealed for one thousand women to march to Westminster two weeks later. While the demonstration was taking place, however, a smaller group armed with bags of stones and hammers broke windows of government offices and businesses. Convinced that the government would not concede women's suffrage until they were forced to do so, the WSPU engaged in further window breaking, this time on a mass scale, in early March 1912; the policy had been jointly agreed by Christabel, her mother, and Emmeline Pethick-Lawrence. On 5 March, the police rushed to Clement's Inn with a warrant for the arrest of the leaders. Christabel, however, now lived in a flat nearby. Warned of what was happening, and fearful that the movement would collapse if all the leaders were in prison, she fled to France where a political offender was not liable to extradition' (June Purvis, ODNB).
