WOMEN INVITED
To SHARE WORK
Welcomed Into Councils
of C. o. P. by the
Chairman.


The Republican party welcomes
the activity OF women in politics. The
best proof of the sincerity OF its wei
come is the fact that the Republican
party made it possible for women to
be given the constitutional right to
citizenship.
In the Republican party organiza-
tions women are performing very
valuable service. Their relation to the
party organization is not perfunctory
or merely honorary; it is ore OF act
ivity and responsibility fule, partio-
ipating partnership.
Women have actively entered pol
itics with the full right OF citizenship.
at a critical period. 1t is common
place that the home and family are
the cornerstone OF all worthy govern
ment. In the main. problems OF gov
ernmen are but home and family prob
lens magnified. All policies OF govern
ment react directly or indirectly. up
on the family and home life.
The great distinction between this
country and other countries is the
higher standard OF living enjoyed here
by the average family. the greater
protection and safeguard thrown about
children and women. the greater op-
portunity afforded the rising genera
ton. All these vitality concern the
home. They are dstinctively Ameri-
can policies. They are distinctively Re
publican policies The Republican par
ty has always stood for the integrity.
independence and. uplf.ment OF the
home and the individual within the
home.
The woman OF the household is
the budget director Upon her falls
the responsibility OF making both ends
meet She appreciates the difficulty
OF such a task. For that nason. none
are more capable OF assisting in bring
ing about public economy than the
women OF the country. and none are
more appreciative OF the work OF this
administration in that direction than
the women OF the country. Federal
taxes have been reduced a million dol
lars annually, the bulk OF which are
lifted from the shoulders OF the aver
age family. The interests bearing pub.
ic debt has been reduced over S2.OO.-
600 600 since March |. 1921, The fis-
cal year OF the federal government
Just closed witnessed the operation OF
the routine affairs OF the government
for S2,0OO.O0O.000 less than the gov
ernment was run during the last year
OF the Democratic administration
These accomplishments appeal strong
ly to the budget directors OF Ameri-
can families With their support. the
Republican party will make fur
ther economies in public affairs.
The Republican party is truly char
acterized as a party of construction
1t has always been such. The record
of the present administration for con-
struction and readjustment is one not
equalled by any previous administra-
ton in our nations history. or by
the administration OF any foreign ma
ton today.
There is no doubt that Republican
women will do their full part in the
organization and other activities OF
the party. Their record since their
citizenship is ample evidence OF this.
The necessity OF party loyalty and
party work cannot be over-esiimated
This is a government OF parties which
receive their commission from he
people, ARE held responsible by the
people. and are compelled to make an
accounting to the people Those who
would participate to an advantage IN
the affairs OF their government must
participate actively in party affairs.
The Republican women cannot per-
form a greater service TO themselves
to their party, or to their county than
by active. whole-hearted participation
in party organization work.
