All Women Eligible.
All women are eligible to join the
United Mothers World Peace Move
ment regardless of color. creed or
race. The Gold Star Mothers and War
Mothers are united with United Moth
efs Of the World in working toward a
Board Of Peace Education which shall
yearly come together to round table
conferences that will strive to work
out uniform standards of peace ideals
based upon the result Of weekly forums
of mothers determined to establish
world peace ideals.
Working with the fathers, they
would associate with them in this
project the Abraham Lincoln Peace
League groups for young men. who
also would lend support and co-opera-
ton to quest for peace
Similarly they would organize the
Betsy Ross chapters of young women,
striving to unite single women all over
the world in a world peace movement.
Finally, since America is the baby"
nation among the powers, they would
hope that they might be able to show
by organizing children of all ages into
graduated groups stimulated by the
achievements Of peace rather than the
glamour Of war.
To bring all of these concepts into
focus, Mrs. Stafford told me that the
United Mothers World Peace Move
ment proposes to hold a great peace
drama the week Of July in the Hol-
lywood Bowl. Here, in the form of a
colorful drama. with Shirley Temple
receiving the peace messengers, they
so hope to dramatic peace that its
appeal may be far in excess of war.
Working with the mothers on this
project, Mrs. Stafford states that they
have the active cooperation of Dain
Sturgis as chairman of business
group and Of Francis Lederer as chair
man of the Actors Committee.

thusiastic and sanguine with hope for
her self-appointed cause, not only has
the will to peace. but, organized as the
World Peace Movement, Inc, Is going
to try to do something about making
the world a place where nations dwell
in amity with each other.
The founder and president OF this
movement is Mrs. Caroline M. Staf-
ford, recently here in Washington,
with whom the author at that time
discussed the groups ideas as to how
they mean to go about it. Back Of
the idea, she told us, she had the TO-

Federated Clubs in Los Angeles,

with California the hub Of the
movie industry of the world" Mrs.
Stafford added, 1--WE instinctively turn
to picturizing and dramatizing the
cause of peace as an offset to the
dramatization of war. So we thought
of having Shirley Temple greet child
peace messenger from all the countries
of the world at a peace conference to
be held in Los Angeles on July 4, 1887
When Shirley's mother explained the
idea to her as a possible means OF
having little children educated to be-
lieve in peace rather than war. Shirley
liked it and thought she would like to
help If she could. She even wrote
letter to President Roosevelt asking
him to come to Los Angeles to open
the World Peace Conference"
State Delegates Idea
Previous to this time. IT Is Mrs. Stat
ford's idea to have the American scene
so organized that our 48 States will
send delegates to this conference.
Without evidence of any other mo-
tive than a desire to conscientiously
further a peace ideal. Mrs. Stafford
earnestly remarks. I'VE women of the
West are getting together to try to
make our voices heard in the cause OF
peace. We believe that one way to
achieve that end is to give people
chance to express their views as tc
whether they wish to set up peace
system or to continue with the effects
of q war one.
I'VE haven't any isrns' to serve ex-
cept 100 per cent Americanism," she
added. TITS just because We believe
that groups Of long-haired men and
short-haired women, chanting about
peace, have never gotten anywhere
with the idea, that we thought we
would see II q group Of mothers could
advance the cause The women Of the
United States represent 54 per cent
Of the buying public, so it seems as II
we might do something about mob
ilizing ourselves to prevent another
war by working out our innermost
convictions that wars should stop.
For centuries war has been drama
tized and the courage and bravery of
mothers who have sent their sons
forth to war with restrained tears has
been extolled in story and song" con-
tinued Mrs. Stafford. Nov, it seems
to number of us that we mothers,
through the expression OF our mass
thinking, ought to be able to estab-
lish a mass consciousness Of action
that will make wars unidyllic. How
