W0men's Council

There was splendid response to the hurried summons for a meeting of the new Central Committee of Women to meet Captain Dancey on Monday evening. The session was held in the parlors of the Wrangell hotel and all local units were repre- sented. Mrs. Johnson, president, was in the chair.
 A committee was named for the purpose of preparing constitution and bylaws for the organization and this committee comprised Mrs. Campbell, Mrs. Mason and Mrs. Gross. It was decided to call the or ganization the Women's Council of Wrangell. Regular meetings were fixed for the second and fourth Fri days of the month at o'clock in the afternoon, the City Hall being chosen as the place of meeting. Many mat ters of vital interest were discussed by way of suggestions for a definite program or policy and committee, comprising Mesdames Wheeler, Pat terson. E. M. Campbell, Shurick, Uhler and Gross, was named to con- sider a program for the Council and submit same at the next meeting on Dec. 28.
 Captain Dancey addressed the Council, explaining the important field that the Council could cover. This Women's Council is function ing all through the United States and has proved a wonderful source of strength to every community where it functions" he told the meeting. This is plan to extend to the smaller communities, a metro politan organization. It has worked successfully down through the States. am hopeful that it will work successfully here in Alaska. It is matter of coordinating effort, of finding pivotal base of action. I hope that the women of Wrangell will treat the new organization se- riously, if so. it means that 1t will be a great force in the life of this community. The Council becomes the senior organization in Wrangell, so far as the women are concerned" :"
 Discussing the splendid success of the organization in Ketchikan and other centers, Captain Dancey told of the plan to extend the organiza- tion and create Women's Council of Southeastern Alaska. There were many vital things that would devel- op, things in which women will be vitaily interested, and with the women of Southeastern Alaska organ ized into one central unit, it would mean much to southeastern Alaska. The establishment of a clinic some where in this part of Alaska, was one important undertaking to which thelwomen would soon give atten- tfon. Then, too, there were matters of legislation and many other things. A new school house and the community home for Wrangell were two of the many local problems. '

 There were only six women chaut- feurs In 1910, but there must be more than the 2S0 the 1920 census revealed.
 In 1910 a woman lawyer In New York city was . novelty. Today there are 253 women engaged in law prac- uce.
 Women listed as authors, editors and reporters totaled 1,7s4 In 1910. and ten years later this total was 3.112
 There are fewer women barbers and manicurists in New York. In 1910 the number was 3.S64. and in 1920 1t was 3,691.
 Fewer seamstresses, more lawyers i; fewer laundresses, more writers; few CT servants, more business executives and public officials, the survey figures show.
 A remarkable shift from the irk- some, laborious tasks to the higher paid, more pleasant employments Is an outstanding feature of a recent survey of the work of women in New York city.
 Medicine is the only profession which showed a decrease in the num- Der of women practitioners in the ten-year period. New York had 5SS women doctors and surgeons In 1910 and 527 in 1920.

new president Calvin Coolidge, began
to take form at once.
In his first interview with the corps

The semi-weekly meetings of the
cabinet, followed by conferences with
the press, will be held as heretofore.
The first formal cabinet meeting he.
intimated, will be deferred until after
the burial of President Harding.
That all policies of the Harding ad.
ninistration will stand, and the ma.
cl1inery of the government will con-
tinue to function as under his pre-
decessor, at least, until after the in.
terment at Marion. Any statement on
any changes to be made will be with
held until that time.
The new president was entirely at
ease during this, his first conference,
with the capital newspapermen since
his ascendancy to the presidency.
He stood up under bombardment
of questions, answering each in turn
with courtesy and dignity, and giving
only such information as he cared to
impart. When pressed to define his
policies, he told the correspondents,
smilingly that he did not care to place
any Interpretation on his statement
of yesterday.
The correspondents were received
in the parlor of the presidential suite
They were asked to enter into single
file, forming semi-circle about the
president. He showed interest in
each individual, shaking hands with
everybody and inqu;rlng as to the
names and newspaper press associa
tion represented.
Some of the correspondents he re
called having met in Boston, wher
the police strike was called. Others
he referred to as having been witt
him in Vermont and on the whirl

tude towards the correspondents wal

istration they will be with him al
much, almost as the members of his
c&binet. Indeed, he told the CORE
spondents that this was their govern
ment and that he would depend on
them for advice and cooperation.
After the correspondents had hled
by and shaken hands with the new
president, the door of the room was
closed and before any questions could
be asked, he said:
Gentlemen, there isn't anything
can say at the present time on policies
of the new administration. I will not
have any statement to make until aft
er the interment of President Harding.
