Women Mobilize To
Keep U.S.. Out of War
Voters League Wants Congress to Repeal Mandatory
Embargo Section of Neutrality Act

Thousands of women of Connec-
ticut, who are members of the 43
local units of the Connecticut
League of Women Voters have been
modified to keep America, out of
war by persuading congress to re-
peal the mandatory embargo Sec
ton of the Neutrality Act at the
current special session of congress.
The Leagues national organiza-
ton, the state organization and the
local units, strongly believe that the
best way to keep the United States
out of the war now raging in Eu-
rope is to repeal the present en-
barge Legislation and substitute for
it restrictions upon commerce, which
would permit the sale of munitions
and all war materials to all belliger-
ents under cash and carry" limi-
tations.
Miss Katharine Ludington, of Old
Lyme, president of the Connecticut
League, has called upon each of the
local Leagues to call special meet
ing within the next ten days, or
make use of one already scheduled
to clarity the Leagues position re-
garding neutrality legislation, both
for its members and the public, and
to make their stand known to the
Connecticut members of congress.
In a message sent today to the
presidents of the 43 local leagues,
signed by Miss Ludington, as pres
ident, and Mrs. Cornelius F. Kruse'
chairman of the Department of
Government and Foreign Policy of
the state League, it is stated:
1--WE always have put our empha-
sis on the abolition and prevention
of war and the substitution of peace
full change. Now that war has come
we must put our best efforts in
keeping our country out of war, and
in passing legislation which will
make our neutrality constructive
Since the League of Women Voters
has made a careful study of neu-
trality ever since 1885, we feel that
we are particularly fitted at this

the League of Women Voters with
the Leagues position on the neu-

This position is the same for the
Connecticut League as it is for the

the state leagues are engaged in a
nationwide movement, through
the National League of Women
Voters. of which Miss Marguerite
Wells is president, to educate and
elicit public opinion so that Con-
gress will adopt Secretary's Hull's
proposals regarding neutrality.
The issue is one which goes be-

Voters points out. Miss Wells, the

do not realize that the question OF
changes in embargoes does not
mean change in our status as neu-
trail, which has been proclaimed by
the President and could have been
proclaimed had there been no So
called neutrality act. Many people
also are under the false impression
that the present embargo provisions
of the act safeguard us against in
cidents likely to lead to war.
1t is possible that the contrary is
true. A vast majority of our people
are known to favor the English
French belligerents, both out of
sympathy and out of convictions
about what is best for civilization
1t is possible that if we persist in
depriving them of necessary CON-
modities, feelings of Illustration OF

comes desperate, bring about just
