South Carolina Women Not To Be Allowed on Juries, September 1920

Greenville, S.C., Sept. 18--T.P. Coathran, state chairman of the Democratic executive committee, concurred with Attorney General Samuel M. Wolfe in the opinion handed down last Saturday to the effect that women will not be allowed to serve on juries in South Carolina. It was previously reported that they would be required to do jury duty because of the ratification of the woman's suffrage amendment.
