TO Hear DIR. Bryan Talk.

In view OF the veto of tho President
OF the United States OF the immigration
bill last week because Of it's "literacy
clause" club women. with true house
keeper instinct. are sweeping VIGOROUSLY
before their own doors. Can they
hold out the alien who comes to their
shores looking for square deal and
allow so large n percentage OF Hitter
acy TO stand among those already with
in their gates?
Virginia women outside OF Richmond
have put their shoulders TO the wheel
to reduce illitoracy in the state through
tho channels OF the Federation of
Womcn's Clubs. There are orGaniza
tions In this city working to the same
end. but unfortunately the fact that
there Is no federated woman's club In
Richmond breaks the continuity OF pur-
pose, and much valuable effort from all
parts OF the state finds nothing TO tie
up 10 In the State capital
This practically sums up the stu
alton and is tho statement made by n
club woman from another Virginia city
in explanation OF several efforts that
have been made to persuade one OF the
progressive women'S organizations to
cooperate with the state and General
l'ederations In their educational and
civic work.
