On the eve OF the big convention It is
interesting 20 hear from the president
| on the development Of the federation
| in the last two years and the probable
| effect Of reorganization on its future
I success In a statement prepared for
| The Times Herald Mrs. Lowe says
AS to the growth OF the federation
| under my regime, ! think II has been
along perfectly natural lines. The
| greatest interest prevails In all parts
/ OF the country which / have visited l
/ have found clubs constantly reaching
/ out into broader fields Of work, becom-
ing more and more altruistic In their
efforts. The following states have or
| ganized state declarations during the
| last two years South Carolina. Texas,
/ South Dakota Indiana, Maryland. Cal
| ifornia and oregon. IL Is known, or
I course that California and Indiana
were considered almost hopeless, and
| feel It Is a great triumph to bring to
| the next convention report OF organ
/ zs ton In these two states Many in
/ dividual clubs have also been added 10
| the roster. and. on the other hand very
few have Withdrawn for other reasons
! than consolidation or going out Of eX-
/ istence. The per capita tax does not
seem to have an effect on the life OF the
! federation
II ind growing interest among club
! women IN The conditions which sur
/ round wage-earnlng women and chill
! dren. hey are beginning 10 realize
| there is a great work 10 do In helping
| 10 organize 'hese W1'SerS
! I'm regard 70 reorganization, / feel
| tBat The discussions which have gtONn
/ cut Of the appointment Of the commits
/ tee TO present pial Of reorganization
/ have been very helpful IN having
! brought 10 the consideration OF all
club women the questions involved in
! the report. They viii thus become bet
ter acquainted with the real conditions
and always feel a deeper interest IN the
outcome. There are unquestionably
tome changes that must be made, and
| / believe the matter VIII be adjusted 20
the satisfaction Of all at our next con-
| yer ton.
In conclusion, I consider upon the
/ whole that the last two years have
| been very successful ones IN the hi story
| OF the federation, perfect harmony has
prevailed end my connection with the
| federation as president has been a
| pleasure from the beginning until now"
Aside from the onerous task OF steer
