SOUTHERNERS ORGANIZE FOR AFFILIATION
WITH NATIONAL BUSINESS WOMEN

The week of June 23rd will complete
sthe federation Of the nine states in
the southern division. preparatory TO
utilization with the National Fedora
ton OF Business and Professional
Women to be effected in st. Louis
July 14.1s.
with big and definite purposes in
view, a group of thinking business ana
professional women of Florida have
organized a state federation of bust
mess and professional women, prepara-
tory to the formation, with all other
states in the union of q national body
Ito represent and care for the interests
of this large and active element IN
American business life.
why are they coming together?
Because women are not in business
ana the professions merely to divide
human labor. They are producers.
They know they are adding to the
mower of human production. Their
Sstatus, their pay, their problems, in
dictate that their contributions are not
being measured by adequate standards.
They now propose to multiply their
power to produce, to put the business
women on the economic map through
steady publicity, to unity their nu-
'tual interests, to get direct action upon
their problems, to make better per-
eonal adjustments of their own work
d to raise their own standards.
Who's Who7
The federation win include clubs of
business women, women in business,
girl beginners in business, women IN
all professions. The executive COM
mfttee consists Of representative WON 4

lis so composite that it is non parti-
san, n-polftical and non-sectarian.
One of the newest of the big forces
in this national committee Is Ida M.
TarbeII, than whom there is no bet
ter known nor more fcrceful woman
v--iter in the country. Her publicity
j .; been one of the Invest chapters in
the history of industrial progress.
While the new federation does not in
clude women in industry, Miss Tarbell,
herself a professional woman, and
realizing the necessity for some ade-
uuiate organization to handle those in
terests of the business and profess
sional women, which they, as indi-
viduals or IN small groups, cannot
make effective, has come into the
movement.
Another is Elizabeth Marbury, an
outstanding figure among the Catholic
women of the country who are do
ing things. A Jewess, Miss Wolff is
one of the best workers on the COM
nzittee, and Christian Science and al
the Protestant denominations are rep
resented.
