PARIS, Feb. 22--senator scialota
recently explained to me ideas for a
League of Nations which he sub

behalf Of Italy.
"The preparation Of this project" ("
he said, was entrusted to the com
mittee on reconstruction over which
presided, with Signor Martini, and
to the subcommittee of which An
drea Tore was chairman. Two
opisions we're expressed. The first
simply asked for the creation Of a
court of arbitration and Cancellation,
having the purpose Of preventing
war The second went further, sus-
tanning the institution Of an organi-
zation capable Of eliminating the
causes of war on the basis of inter
national cooperation politically, mill
itarily and juridicially.

GLOW did she expect them
to raise the money!"
"Just as they raised money
for the distant heathens' con-
version, for the deficit in the
pastors salary, or the balance
for the new church organ. The
women gave oyster suppers and
strawberry festivals, they made
and sold cakes and quilts, and
goodness only knows what else.
The money came in in very
small instruments, and most of
us to-day would have given
the thing up as hopeless. They
kept on, and by and by some
rather large contributions were
made by men Of prominence.
"The largest contribution of
all was made by Edward Ever
EFT. Since women positively
could not make public speeches
Mr.. Everett undertook a speak
ing tour of the country, and he
cleared 100000. Then the
purchase of the property be-
came a practicable undertake
ing. However, when Mr.. Law
renee Washington, owner of
Mount Vernon, was approached

on the subject, he refused

women"
"Refusedw exclaimed the
audience, which by this time
included the stenographers and
the filing clerk.
"Certainly. On the grounds
that women were not respon-
sible agents. Even with the
purchase money in hand Mr..
Washington could not see how
women could maintain the place
or even restore it. He could
not foresee a time when women
would be earning and spending
their own money, or when mar
ried women would have their
separate estates. 1t required
several years Of persuasion
before MI. Washington signed
the deeds and turned over to
the women Mount Vernon and
200 acres of the estate.

problem for the last ten years.
''If you can arrange mobile units
which could meet the need as it
occurred in various sections of the
state | think a solution will have
been reached. | am sure that four
camps of twenty-five workers each
can be used successfully. 1t may
be necessary to increase these to a
larger number in certain seasons"
Mrs. Robert Hill, of Easthamp-
ton, director of the Land Amy, is
especially interested in the work
on Long Island. Last year the
Land Army placed two camps there;
this year at least four are requested.
All over the state a double number
of camps is requested. Ulster
County expresses need for 500
farmerettes. The extra demand
has outgrown the funds of the
Land Army, especially as Congress
failed to pass the emergency APP
preparation bill, which carried an
appropriation for the Land Army.
Once the camps are sent out they
become self-supporting, but the
initial cost of equipping them is
borne by the Land Army. 1t is
asking contributions to equip the
fifty-two camps which have been re-
quested in this state this summer.
