To Retain Identity,
MRS. Roosevelt Says
Representatives Of 70
Women's Organizations
Attend Conference

Pointing out that the object OF
the Office of Civilian Defense is to
leave every community better of
than before the present emergency,
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, assistant
civilian defense director. declared
Yesterday that 1t is important that
women's organization taking part
in volunteer participation activities
retain their identity. In answering
a question in the discussion period
in the conference on womens activi-
ties in civilian defense, she said
there was no intention that these or
ganizations be submerged and lose
their individuality.
In addition to members OF State
defense councils, yesterdays confer
ence was attended by representa-
tives of nearly 10 national women's
organizations. Miss Elolse Dawson,
assistant director in charge of group
activities in the Office of Civilian
Defense. presided at the afternoon
session. which was devoted to a dis
cussion of the work of organized
groups in the civilian protection pro-
gram. The meeting was held at the
Departmental Auditorium.
Our objective is not to set up
new organizations, except where
none exist" Mrs. Roosevelt told the
conference. On the protection side
of the program, she added, it has
been necessary to establish some new
| organizatio tions.
Seeks to Strengthen Organizations
The Office of Civilian Defense is
making every effort to strengthen
existing organizations. she said. As
a result of the present emergency
she continued, local groups have a
fine opportunity to awaken the COM
munity to a realization of its health
| and other social needs.
After the emergency we 90 out
of the picture, and you stay in" she
told the representatives of women's
groups. 1T is important that you
retain your identity"
In reply to another question. she
| expressed the view that the wearing
| of uniforms by women civilian de-
fense workers would increase the ef-
ficiency of their work. In England
she said, it has been found that
uniforms give confidence to women
defense workers.
She emphasized, however, tina,
civilian defense uniforms should be
worn only by those qualified for, and
doing a job in the defense program
BY the same token, the wearing OF
civilian defense insignia should
mean, she said, that you are doing
something for the defense of the
community and the country"
