her brief message.
''Women's role today is to make
democracy a dynamic force worth
fighting for" she said. Sweetness

guard human freedom. We need
also faith to protect it and, if neces-
sary, to die in its defense"
In a tribute to newspaperwomen
she concluded: Il salute you pro-
gressive women engaged in journal
ism and ways of self-eXpression
Your courage makes me proud. In
fortifying us in this situation and
in combating forces of totalitarian-
ism your power for good through an
enlightened press cannot be meas
ured."
Some of the phases of today's
outlook regarding women were dis
cussed by Mrs. Cookman, who de-
rided the sometimes expressed be-
lief that war work will detract from
the femininity of women.
women will always be women" !"
she declared. mo business or ma
chine will ever change them from
wanting husbands, homes and chill
dren."
Mrs. Cookman told of a recent
journey throughout the United
States In search of material for
articles rejecting contemporary Iv-
ing conditions among average
American families.
1.-THE people of the United States

In their demands of life. They are
willing to work hard for what they
wish to achieve, and they will fight
for it. They are plenty tough in
body, spirit and mind"
