Thé Women's Right to Choose of Maryland, the Baltimore, Maryland affiliate of WONAAC was to organize busing and housing arrangements for out-of-state women. On November 22, 1971, a source advised that the Women's Right to Choose of Maryland, working from 3028 Greenmout Avenue, Baltimore, Maryland, were unsuccessful in attempts to generate enthusiasm for the WONNAC demonstration among Baltimore area women. Therefore, the plan to charter a bus for the purpose of transporting demonstrators to the Washington, D. C. rally was cancelled.
