what was the of the federal income tax law in 1913, how many states were there, and how many states ratified the law?
The federal income tax law, otherwise known as the 16th amendment, allowed the Congress to create a federal income tax. This would allow Congress to create the tax at a rate that doesn't pertain to census figures or other state related issues. The amendment was passed on February 3, 1913 when the State of Delaware passed the amendment, being the 36th state to do so. Following Delaware's ratification 6 other states ratified the amendment, bringing the total to 42 states ratified. Three states rejected the amendment and three more simply did not act on it.
When did women get there vote?
There was never any federal law limiting women's suffrage in that manner. Before passage of the 19 amendment however, most states did allow women to vote in at least some elections. Restrictions varied from state to state and I suppose it is possible that one or more states had such a restriction. I have never heard of it, but that doesn't mean it wasn't done somewhere.
