Mrs. Ehrmann, a cheerful woman of 73 who has worked for 40 years in this cause, is hopeful of the November out come. She has been supported all along by the conviction, which amounts to a Doer's principle, that "if people understand and are properly dealt with, they will follow an intelligent and humane course...
