Certain resolutions were passed. Let
all military training be expurgated
from the tuition of the child and in
struction in international ideals be
substituted. Let women have national
and international governmental rights.
Let there be universal and gradual
disarmament
Peace Correspondents.
Let there be no secret diplomacy.
Let all correspondence which may lead
to war be made public. so that the
people who fight and bear the brunt OF
the hardships attendant upon war may
have a voice in its possible declaration
or refusal.
Few men spoke at these meetings.
Many were asked, and many promised
but only a few of them made appear
ance at the appointed hour. But as
this was a conference of women. their
presence was not as greatly regretted
as might be. Mrs. Sewall was humor-
ously emphatic in her insstence upon
this point But of those who did speak
were Rabbi Martin Meyers. of San
Francisco; Minister Mira Ali Kuh
Khan. Minister from Persia. and Will

The general tenor OF the meeting was
for peace-peace at any price. This
atmosphere emanated chiefly from Mrs.
Sewall, under the sway of whose en-
thusiasm Mrs. Ethel Snowden jour

Frau Riga Helman from Germany.

WV OMEN have once more come
w together TO protest against
war. And this they have
done in spite of belittlement Of their
cause, in spite of logical discussion and
in spite of that most potent of all
weapons. ridicule. And that terrible
psychological barrier. the knowledge
that their efforts would accomplish
nothing of immediate value, has but
spurred them on to greater efforts.
Under the leadership of Mrs. May
Wright Sewall, Of Indiana and Cali
fornia. the international Conference
Of Women Workers to Promote Perma-
nent Peace, on July 4, 5, 6 and I, held
meetings in San Francisco. There were
few representatives from foreign coun-
tries; there were fewer official dele
gates. Most attendants of the con-
ference were from the United States
or foreign residents. Some few ire
mendously interested women, such as
Frau Riga Hellman, of Germany, came
entirely unoffcially, their act dictated
by their own desire to do something
Beautiful Though Incapable.
And it is in this very fact that the
greatest significance of the congress
lies. All protests have already been
made. Art, poetry, oratory and invec-
tive have damned war. These women
knew all this; they knew they could !
accomplish nothing. The passing OF
resolutions, with no power to make
them potent, is pathetic game. Even
mute protest has its precedent But
this very ignoring of the fact that
their gathering lacks in dramatic in
terest supplied certain tragic beauty
TO a spectacle which was utterly in
efficient in every modern sense Of this
word.
Meetings on the whole were quiet
and uneventful. Women from China,
Sweden, South America, Germany
France and America made their bows
and said their few words of comment.
"Let the word foreign be removed from
every vocabulary in the world was
their cry, and LET the ethics Of ma
tons be lifted to the level Of the
ethics of individuals" where men
have failed to make peace a positive
state, let women take the helm and try +,
TO teach to man what relationship with (
his fellow beings should be-"
War Not Inevitable.
"War is not inevitable" cried Mrs.
Sewall, her gray head shaking in the
intensity of her utterance. "The sins
Of the world have been founded on the
falsity Of that doctrine. Hatreds, Sc
cret diplomacy, fumblings and dis
agreements and descriptive sorrows are
caused merely because all have believed
that war is as natural TO nations as
ouarrelling is to the individual. But
that is all absurd. War between ma

The meetings were not always peace

There are many and varied opinions

time merely for the purpose of attend

$4,000 men and women whom she is
representing just what America Is
thinking about, and exactly what it is
likely to do about it.
Mrs. Andrea Hofer ProudfoOt. who is
chairman of the international Unity
League, made plea for the achieving
of a broader Americanism. 1--WE are
international in America because in
most Of US as individuals there is a
fusion Of blood. We must live up, not

glorious as it should be, but to our
actual being Our reputation is not
supreme, because we nave been ma

motives and think there is too much
hunting for sensationalism and too

mercial greed prevents true interna-
tionalsm and neutrality, especially at

Our Selfish Interests.
"But there is one purely selfish phase
of this war question of which AMERICA
has taken little cognizance, and that is
that we must suffer much from cOndi-

unpleasant market conditions, but there
are direct demands made upon us in
