CHICAGO, June G.-Under a war
cloud, a whole lot bigger than Il mere
mans hand, the general Federation
OF Women's clubs began today the
business OF the twelfth biennial con-
yention.
The war note sounded lightly
but very distinctly, when the local
biennial committee met in preliml-
nary session and declared Its intention
of nominating a Chicago woman for
A national federation office. Mrs.
George p. Bass, chairman of the local
biennial board, is to be the candidate
for political honors and the place she
wants is a position on the national
federation board.
III Chicago women ask the conven'
tion for this or for any other ONCE,
they will be ignoring precedent
which bars the hostess city from
seeking recognition or reward from
its guests, and they will be setting
aside an unwritten federation law,
providing that state is entitled TO
only one representative on the ma
tional board Chicago is now repre-
sented by Mrs. Francis ID. Everett,
and her reelection Is assured
Almost as big as the political
cloud is the disturbing suffrage cloud

eral hoard meeting late this after
neon. This board includes all OF the
executive officers and was presided
over by the federation president, Mrs.

frage leader and other advocates for
votes for women" took part in the
session, and though nothing appeared
on the surface. the antagonism be-
tween the suffrage and no-suffrage
elements was plainly evident
But whether there VIII be open
war or skirmishes behind closed com
mittee room doors. even the most
prophetic clubwoman could not say
today
"The federation Is net antisufrage
in any sense" declared federation
leader, but our organization doesn't
touch national issues, suffrage pol
itics, prohibition or religion. We are
working for better living and better
citizenship, but we are not using pol.
itics TO gain these ends"
IL is estimated that 10000 women
will attend the convention, the bag

port the arrival OF 10000 trunks, an
evidence that feminism has no grudge
