a new and formidable enemy today

According to Miss Louise M.
Gross, chairman of the women's
committee for the repeal Of the
Eighteenth Amendment and a leader
in the new movement, the union
will have representatives in each
state and expects to cooperate
closely with all existing organiza-
tions having similar aims.
The principal activity, Miss Gross
said, will be a campaign or educa-
ton among the women. The organ
isation will try to elect candidates
who favor moderation to Congress
and State legislatures.
Among those listed as supporting
the union are Mrs. William L. Hark-
ness, Mrs. Thomas Devices Wood
of Philadelphia, Mrs. Chauncey
Olcott. Rep. Mary 7. Norton, OF
