English Woman, After Long Speaking Tour Here, Returns
 To Tell of War Spirit

After long speaking tour, in which she has delivered 232 lectures in 228 days on the work of English women in the war, Miss Helen Fraser has returned to her native land to tell her English sisters what American women are doing for the cause of the allies. She has been much interested in the war program of the Depart ment of Labor.
 "A great change has come over the people Of the United States, and over the American women in the six months or so that I have been here' she said before sailing for home. She tcld of the great interest and enthusi- asm women have manifested in the Liberty loan and Red CrCss campaigns and how through care in food con- seTyation they have left available food for Belgium and France.
 She declared that few persons out side the munitions factories had any idea of the great number of Ameri- can women who have taken up that work Many of them are women who had never worked before, but they are devoting their entire energies to this service, she said.
 The tendencies of the times, she de- clared, are bringing women into the full responsibility of citizenship.
