It was the first oppor- unity for a woman to vote, because I was the first woman to be elected to Congress, I believed then, as I do today, that women are the ones that must be concerned with the needs and develop- ment of the human race. I have always fought for the dignity of all human baings - for those of the present as well as those of future generations. I will continue to struggle as long as IT live. I hope all women will res- pond to the following call and join me in Washington on January 8, 1968, the opening day of Congress. Jeannette Rankin A CALL TO ALL AMERTCAN WOMEN who are outraged by the ruthless slaughter in Vietnam and the persistent neglect of human needs at home TO COME TO WASHINGTON ON JANUARY 8 AMERICAN WOMEN represent 51% of the voting population of our country. AMERICAN WOMEN have the power to a- chieve peace and a decent life for every American. This is woman power! Demonstrate it to the Congress of the United States! Come to Washington on January 8 as Congress opens in joint session. Support Jeannette Rankin as she leads a representative delegation of American women to the Capitol to demand that: SCongress, as its first order of business, resolve to end the war in Vietnam and immedi- ately arrange for the with- drawal of all American troops. *Congress use its power to make reparations for the ravaged land we leave behind in Vietnam. “Congress listen to what the American people are saying and refuse the insatiable demands of the military-industrial complex. WOMEN OF AMERICA, our power is un- limited. On January 8, American women will: . *PETITION the United States Con- gress ’ . . *CONVENE a Congress of American Women that afternoon to develop - programs to meet the crisis in America - programs which will express our political power, reason and conscience.

They are making office space and telephones in their Los Angeles headquarters, 5899 West Pico Boulevard, Los Angeles available for this purpose. Spearheading the local committee are Mery Clarke and Eva Korn, both of whom are active in WSP. \ Mary Clarke is currently a member of the JRB's National Steer- ing Committee, Source Three reported during November 1947, that Eva Korn was a member of the Los Angeles County Communist Party (ASCCP) during the years 1946 and 1947. To give publicity to the proposed activity of the JRB, the local WSP office is circulating a reprint from the "San Francisco Chronicle", issue of Saturday, May 20, 1967, page nine, which contained a feature article regarding the opposition to wars by former Congresswoman Jeannette Rankin, for whom the JRB has been named.

Congress would reconvene. The communication indicated that since the entire purpose of the Brigade would be to confront the opening joint session of Congress that it would be futile to schedule the march prior to the date Congress would reconvene. The suggestion was made that recrultment of local women to participate in the WRB be heid in abeyance until a confirmation had been obtained indicating tne date on which Congress would reconvene. wi?

The second source advised in September, 1966, that MIKE ZAGARELL, CPUSA Youth Director, stated that in Negro communities the Party still supported the plan to build "left" socialist centers and to solidify the Party base through the DCA. This scurce also advised in Septeaber, 1966 that DANTSL RUBIN, CPUSA National Organizational Secretary, stated the Party believes the DCA should have a working-class outlook and be a mass organiz- ation favorable to socialism, socialist countries: and Marxism, and in April, 1967, advised GUS HALL, CPUSA General Secretary, had indicated the DCA primary emphasis should be on developing mass resistance to the draft. A third: source advised in September, 1967, that JARVIS TYNER was elected chairman of the DCA on September 10, 1967, at the Third National Convention of the DCA held in New York, New York, from September 8-10, 1967. .

En a —— ee ee 5:1 | WOMEN FOR PEACE aka __liomen Strike for Peace von The "Berkeley Daily Gazette,” a daily newspaper of ; general circulation published in Berkeley, California, contained an article in the November 19, 1965,evening edition reflecting that in November, 1961, when con- cern mounted over radioactive fallout from nuclear testing, a group of women in Washington, D. C. started Women Strike for Peace. The idea spread rapidly through- out the country and now embraces 900 groups, ineluding Women For .Peace groups in the San Francisco Bay area. These groups support programs to achieve goals such as: (1) Continued disarmament negotiations. (2) A strong and flexible United Nations. (3) Planning now at state and national levels for conversion to peace~time economy and positive efforts to ease world tensions. The women act as individuals and as a group, with specific actions suggested by individuals and groups from all over the world. Decision to participate jointly on any given suggestion is democratly arrived at by members of the Co- ordinating Committee. Effective cooperation with other peace groups is encouraged. Monthly Coordinating Committee meetines and general meetings, as waxyvanted, are open to all ana anncunced in mailings to memoers. There are no dues or membership forms nor conditions for membership. To stir an awareness of the need for peace, Women For Peace encourage public education in peace objectives at local schools and sponsor peace~oriented demonstrations and public meetings , newspaper ads, billboards, and candicates for public effice. On the national level the g»cup attempts to influence government officials by letters and conferences. CONFIDENTIAL MW 35085 Docld:329599545 Page 270

As women, we bear the major responsibility for the preservation of life, and thus a major responsibility in the peace movement, rnclosed you will find an announcement of the latest national women's effort for peace. Several peace groups in Portland are cooperating in raising funds to send representatives to Washington. We hope that you will also support this effort, to insure representaticn from Portland Women for Peace, The coupon on the enclosed notice is for your use in this effort, t .
