TITLE: B. Sedláková-Seibertová and Marie Tůmová to Rosika Schwimmer, Praha, 24 May 1913. DESCRIPTION: Letter by B. Sedláková-Seibertová and Marie Tůmová to the Hungarian Feminist Association (Feministák Egyesülete), the local organizer of the seventh congress of the International Woman Suffrage Alliance IWSA which would be held in Budapest from 15 to 21 June 1913. The authors point to the fact that they have received a letter by Carrie Chapman Catt, the President of the IWSA, who is disappointed that Božena Viková-Kunětická will not participate in the congress because she is not allowed to speak in Czech, and “demands in a friendly manner” that representatives of the Czech Committee for Women’s Voting Rights (Výbor pro volební právo žen) shall be present at the congress. There is the intention to come to do so under the condition that the representatives of the Committee may speak in Slovene, as the national language admissible at the public meetings, as had been the case in Stockholm (at the sixth confrence of the IWSA in 1911) and had been promised to them. Part of the conflict with Viková-Kunětická derives from the fact that she had not been aware of this possibility, and that the Committee had not been involved before she had been invited. They assume that under the conditions they describe Viková-Kunětická would still accept the invitation, and it would give a “good impression” if an enfranchised woman from the other part of the Habsburg Monarchy would speak at the congress. The response is urgent.
