May Meet i'm Washington
The next national meeting will be
held in Washington in 1927, 1t is be-
lieved. The change made at last
years convention provided for
biennial conventions instead of an
nual, SO that the national affair
would OF conflict with the interna-
tional. 1t is the feeling of officers
that the convention should be held
in Washingtn ever yfour years.
Tulsa, Okla. 1t its understood, is
making a bid for the convention in
1929.
Mrs. Hargery Corbett Ashby. presi-
dent of the International Woman's
Suffrage Alliance speaking on the
responsibility Of university women
in public life at the Friday luncheon,
said. Women in twenty-seven coun-
tries have been called to full citizen
ship at a time when wise and ex-
perienced statesmen may well finch
at the new world problems before
them.
Democracy is the accepted method
Of government. Challenged in Eu-
rope by bolshevism and fascism, its
more formidable foes are the apathy
of the educated citizen, and the ig-
norance of the uneducated."
Mrs. Ashby named three problems
that must be grasped and faced by
the women as citizens: One, the
rapid shrinking of the world, intel
lectually and economically. rendering
foreign policy an essential problem
of good government. Isolation is
impossible. Two, closer international
cooperation. Three. the education OF
the electorate and the training OF
statesmen.
