Actually, neither Victoria nor Belva Ann expected to win; they were merely highly vocal suffragettes. Not so Maine's trim, white-haired Republican Senator Margaret Chase Smith. Last week Maggie Smith, 66, confessed before the National Women's Press Club in Washington that she has no money, no time to campaign and no organization to speak of.
