A letter from Mrs. Leslie Warner,
state president, was read regarding a

Jones, of Washington, stated they
were using every possible effort for the
passage of the federal suffrage amend
ment in the senate.
The members unanimously decided to
change the name Of the league, as it
has been confused with the National
Woman's party, which is a militant or

have sent a telegram TO Washington

militant suffragettes toward President
Wilson, and the name Of the league

ences, Most Of the women have been
very enthusiastic about signing the
census cards, and so far swimming has
been desired BY more women than any
other activity. In order that the census
be completed by the first Of next week,
II Is important that several misconcep-
tons regarding the purposes Of the
census be corrected. One girl refused to
sign a card because she didn't want to
give her job up to any soldier" II vas
explained to his girl that far from do
ing this, the census hopes to gain such
a grasp of the situation that il may
help to place any girls who might lose
their positions.
The census is not under the super
vision of a labor union, has no con-
neCtion with subscriptions to Liberty
bonds, and II IN no way obligates any
girl to join any class or to pay any
dues. 1t is merely a quick method
obtaining statistics valuable to the city.
churches, girls organizations and m
pIoyers. The census Is Endorsed by
Mayor Monteverde, by the Rotary club,
and by the leading wOmen's organiZa-
tons. 1t also offers a girl n chance to
get different activities, but it in no way
binds a girl to join an organization or
to take part in any activity, This SER
vice Is the return of war camp COM
