League Has Delegations Hard

Endorsement

CLEVELAND. Ohio, June TO-
American women want world peace,
and they are going to make the
road Of any political party that
ignores their desires impossible, an
extremely rocky road.
This is the warning that has been
sounded by the League Of Women
Voters, which has plank" delega-
ton hard at work in the corridors
and Hobbies Of the Republican con-
vention.
ANY political party which does
not take into account the desire Of
women for world peace will have q
disastrous awakening" warned Mrs.
James w. Morrison, Of Chicago. a
member of the leagues delegation
here.
Nations are like families, Mrs.
Morrison said. 1T is the mothers
job to see that her children grow
up in an atmosphere as harmonious
as possible.
80 it is with the nations. II
we have the will to grow up to-
gether peacefully we can do it. I'm
less we accomplish this fundamental
work all the rest will be useless.
1.-The League of Women Voters
believes that intelligent, construc.
tive work for peace is the most i'm.
portant job that it can do.
I'm my travels throughout the
West have found the feeling
among women to be the same. They
are patient. They are willing to
work for peace, step by step, and
any of the political parties, must
take this into account"
MANY people say that peace will
come eventually, but not within our
time" said Miss Ruth Morgan of
New York. I'VE do not believe
this. We can remove it within our
own generation If we work for it.
The responsibility rests with Amer.
lea and American women"

WOMEN BATTLE

G. o. P. Endorsement Sought
and Opposed by Groups
at Cleveland
By HELEN FOX,
International News Service.

CLEVELAND. Ohio, June TO-
Two factions of women. one urging
and the other opposing a national
amendment establishing rights, are
here today to battle for a plank in
the Republican Party platform.
Members of the National Woman's
Party and the National League of
Women Voters have flocked to the
Republican convention in formidable
numbers, swelling the 4, ranks of
women who have come here as
delegates or the wives Of delegates.
Numerically and in importance.
women are represented as they have
never been before at a national
convention.
Equal rights, of which "votes for
women" was the first step, has
once again become a controversy
OF national Importance, according to
Miss Maud Younger, congressional
chairman Of the National Women's
Party and head of the delegation
from California which has arrived
here to work for the adoption of
the equal rights plank by the Re-
publican party.
Changes Mind.
II, myself, in former years; have
urged the adoption of laws favoring
women" Miss Younger said. "At
that time l though such laws were
necessary and important. have
since changed my mind and l am
honest enough to admit it.
Perhaps If / give my reasons for
ceasing to be in favor Of laws de.
signed to aid women, others may
see 1t as the Woman's Party see it.
Investigation in the forty-eight
States has convinced us that class
laws are really more adverse to
women than they are favorable, In
most cases they are discriminatory
prohibiting certain jobs to women
and hindering them in competition
with men and obtaining promotion
and a fair wags."
Miss Younger said that she does
not wish the privileges such laws
have given women abolished, but
would like to see them extended to
men as well.
Would Include Men.
However, valuable these laws for
women only-and not for men-may
have been in the transition stage
