FEMINIST Halls POST
AS GAIN TO WOMEN
Appointment Of Adviser to League
Held Evidence of New
Recognition.

Appointment of woman as technical
adviser to the League of Nations on
the nationality of women lis evidence
OF the increased consideration which
the League is beginning to give to mat
tiers of particular concern to women, "
Alice Paul, member Of the National
Council of the Womans Party, asserted
yesterday.
The League recently named woman
member of the Chilean delegation for
this post. the first technical adviser
ever appointed specifically in the inter-
eStS Of women.
Miss Paul an ardent feminist. also
hailed the resolution with regard to the
nationality of women adopted by the
Institute of International Law at its
meeting last month at Cambridge, Eng
land. The resolution approved the
Leagues action in forming a committee
OF women to advise upon the nationality
of women and expressed the hope the
League would continue to consult this
committee in the future.
Altogether" said Miss Paul. this past
year has seen remarkable advances in
the awakening of feminist conscious
ness. The women of the Americas, the
women of Europe, the women of Asia,
have shown how far women can go in
few brief months when their efforts
are united toward one end"
