News Copyright. t92S
HAVANA, January 3l.-Delegates to
the sixth Pan-American Congress have
agreed to permit representatives of the
women of the three Americas to pre-
sent claims that their equal rights with
men be recognized by the 2: govern
ments making up the Pan-American
Union
The decision was reached following
a resolution submitted by DR.. Jacob
Vaiela. head Of the urlgllayaa -<lelega-
ton, to the steering committee that a
special plenary session be called rext
week TO permit the women to present
their demands
This movement is under the leader
ship of the National Womens Party of
tha United States. Mrs. Clarence z.
Smith. chairman Of the National Coun.
ell; Miss Doris Stevens. chairman OF
the committee on internatit nal action
and other prominent United States
women have been active here since the
congress opened organizing Cuban voni-
en- and leaders of other Latin American
countries TO make a formal demand for
recognition.
Stage Demonstration.
On Saturday the leading Cuban fem
inists staged the first outdoor demon
stration IN the history Of Cuba as a
preliminary TO the preservation of the
demands to the Congress At the pie
nary session the women will ask the
congress TO consider their demands and
plaze the trail toward their goal of
equal rights by recommending that a
treaty 10 this effect be signed by all
American republics.
Demands for the equality OF women
FIRST appeared at the Fifth Congress
held at Santiago. Chile, five years ago.

which they apparently forgot or ignored
at the present congress. for no woman
was named on any delegation.
Woman Lawyers Aid.
Woman lawyers have been peering
over the statute books of all Latin
American countries, seeking means of
making a start toward codifying
private international law so as to give
equal rights To women. but are finding

OF the resolution then. II was lost IN
the rush Of business during the short
session and never came up for consider

figures that administration Senators
