sponse WAS made Jointly by Mrs Julia
Ward Howe and Miss Clara Barton, after
which the presidents annual address was
read by heY. Anna Howard Shaw,
Talks on Birth Rate.
Mrs Shaw. In her address, said in part.
While 1t is true that marriage and the
birth rate have decreased within recent
years, before the results are charged to
the participation of women In Industry
one must answer many questions.
'AS a matter OF fact IL is no new
thing for women to be engaged in in
dustrial pursuits. From primitive times
women have been great Industrial fac
tors and modern economic conditions. in
stead OF introducing them to industries

gagged with overwhelming circles OF
activity. as inventive genius has devel-
oped and civilization progressed.
Conditions Of Employment.
IF conditions surrounding their en-
ployment are such as TO make 1t So
clal question of the first Importance IL
Is unfortunate that President Roosevelt
did not see that women the most deeply
Interested factor In the problem should

that crisis has been reached at Alge-
ciras are not warranted by the actual
conditions here The negotiations on
the police and finance questions are
proceeding uninterruptedly. but have
reached bedrock point. on which
neither the French nor the German
delegates show any disposition to
yield. This firmness on both sides has
caused some apprehension OF an even
tual deadlock, but the delegates. 80
long as the negotiations continue. will
not admit that crisis has been
reached.
Inquiry among the American and
other delegates showed that they are
confident of successful result.
The delegates deprecate the alleged
attempts of the German press to per-
suade the public that II the conference
fails 1t will be the fault Of France and
Great Britain.
