back next year on the proposed
change In policy.
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait was en-
Enthusiastically applauded when. in dis
cussing Mrs. Millcr's resolution, she
said that she had been opposed from
the first to the welfare program Of
the league, considering It diffusive Of
energy and confusing to the public
mind. and that in her judgment the
league was too far down in the
kindergarten of women's work.

That women generally regard war
as the supreme inefficiency" of which
a government can be guilty, and that
the league of nations. among the dem
ocratic women. at least, is far from a
dead issue, were facts made evident
during the convention by the adop-
tien Of the resolution to outlaw war;"
and the league Of nations dinner"
organized and attended by more than
200 democratic women and a few re-
publicans, at which was organized
a league of nations union. and an
amendment to the anti-war resolu.
tion agreed upon that was later pre-
sented to the league convention by
Mrs. Caspar Whitney of New York. an
adopted. This amendment, which
came very close to an Endorsement
of the league of nations, added to the
resolution to outlaw war the words:
And in order to promote this that
the League of Women Voters call
upon the government of the United
States to take such prompt action in
cooperation with other nations as
shall lead to 4 federation of the world
for this purpose" and declared 1t to
be the conviction of.the League of
Women Voters that a federation to
this end should be entered upon"
It had been made plain by the off,
GERS Of the League of Women Voters
that no resolution concerning the
league of nations would be made q
part of the program of the convention
and that any such resolution would
be ruled out If offered from the floor.
The amendment as proposed. however.
went through with only three dissent

Women and Public Affairs
Demonstrated at Baltimore That Women Regard
Political Parties as Necessary Means to Ends,
But Not as Ends Within Themselves.

1t was perfectly apparent that they
regarded parties as useful and neces-
sary means to an end. but never for
a moment as ends In themselves. A
party machine to the average woman
voter a. represented-at Baltimore last
week. IL something to work with
and to use while headed in tho right
direction, and not a momen: longer.
And no disposition whatever was
manifested to give the unQuestioning
and answering loyalty that the
women generally had found to be
what the party leaders wanted from
them. and the extent Of the partici-
patton. in party affairs that they were
disposed willingly to permit.
How to meet these and other prob
lens and how to make the best use
of, their power as voters were the
questions the women wanted to dis
cuss. and their revolt which had
simmered all the week. finally boiled
over, although too late to affect the
program for the coming year. when
Mrs. John o. Miller Of Pennsylvania
offered her resolution to make the

permitted to present this resolution

League of Women Voters,

7. week in Baltimore. was chiefly
interesting by reason Of the fact that
it is probably the last which will be
held along the lines followed by the
league since its organization from
the old National American Woman
Suffrage Association. following the
ratification Of the national woman
suffrage amendment.
Although in theory the league is a
different organization, including W ON
en- who, regardless of whether or
not they participated in the night for
suffrage, are now none the less voters,
in practice it is the old association

lines for higher standards In child

social hygiene. for specific measures
to improve the legal and political
status Of women, reduction OF living
costs through regulation Of food sup
ply and demand, and for better
citizenship through extension of the
school system and adequate financing
of public education. It was the sort
of program that club women all over
the country were working on As best
they could In former days and lament
ing meanwhile the lack Of that useful
tool, the vote. with which to make
their plans effective.
i i
The change In the attitude and in
terests Of the 1900 women gathered
at Baltimore was apparent from the
first. day. They wanted to discuss
and to the limit Of their ability under
the progfam did discuss, concrete
political problems. They tried TO IN
iect, into the days sessions compari'
sons Of the primary laws in theiI
respeetiye states. the political ques'
tions arising in one-party states and
the variation Of the. problem present
ed to the woman voters In those
states as against the conditions In
the two-party states, and for the
first time they showed disposition
to question the merits Of special vel.
fare Legislation for women In In
dustry.
How, as voters, to make use Of
political parties without being made
use Of by them seemed to be the
thought uppermost in the minds Of
the women from every section Of the
country. They wanted to compare
notes and profit by each others ex-
perience Of the political machinery
in operation in the different states
and communities. And they wanted
to-discuss ways and means Of getting
into once the candidates they be-
