General Plan
The general plan OF the work is
set forth in the following bulletin:
The council of national defense on
April 21st appointed the wOman's
committee with the idea that women
of national prominence. might be
brought together to consider and ad-
wise how the assistance of the wom-
en- of America might be made availa-
Bile in the prosecution of the war 1t
was charged with the duty of so CO.
Ordinating and unifying the work of
organizations already existing as to
make them fully effective in the ma
tional crisis. 1t expects to act as a
clearing house of the work of women
through organizations and as individ-
uals, and in turn it would send
through its organization in the states
the messages of the government to
the women of the country. This plan
of proposed organization links togeth-
er in complete working cooperation
the existing organizations of women
and their working forces, in order to
hA 10
number in the service which the ma
ton demands. 1t is clear therefore
that no good work should stop or be
retarded and the woman's commit
tee wishes to enlarge and stimulate
all such work. supplying the channel
for its more effective prosecution, and
to open as quickly as possible to wom-
en- generally the many opportunities
for patriotic service Therefore, ex-
isting organizations should not be dis
turbed, but continue their activities,
directing them to meet the needs of
the hour and registering them with
the state, city or county branch Of
the wOman's committee, so that over
tapping may be most easily avoided

the bridegroom when the VOWS were
exchanged, and Ada went in to get
supper.
1t was the first supper she had pre-

for she and Perry have been divorced
