Chicago, March 22.-Edith Rocke- feller Mccormick, daughter of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., tracing the prog ress of women, told representatives Of many women's organizations here yesterday that If woman marries outside her own clan or tribe she'll be slave. History proves It."
 The engagement of Mrs. McCor- mick's 16 year old daughter. Mathilde, to Max Oser. Swiss riding academy proprietor recently was announced. The meeting at which Mrs. McCor- mick spoke was preliminary to the women's progress exposition to be held here June 3 10 10, of which Mrs. Mccormick will be general chairman. The Olden Times.

From this condition, she said. there grew up kind of serfdom for women.
 This period of serfdom was an era of down curves for woman, she said. but it was sandwiched in between two up curves, the ancient and modern. Women Now Victors.
 "Women are now victors. But they are much more than victors,' Mrs Mccormick said, flor they have done much more than fight for their place, which has been won through socio- logical development and growth.
 ..All the modern woman wants IS to be let alone, to develop, to demon strate. and to expand" she said. Mother love is important, but 1t is not everything. Woman's universal love is bigger thing"
