While there, Mrs. Llewellyn said
she observed the Japanese women's

clothes conscious and that her
clothes were examined with q
friendly curiosity wherever she
went.
The speaker spoke with high

Gently returned from Tokyo, spoke
before a luncheon meeting of the

finds America holding the ball, she
emphasized. I'VE cannot muff the
game, she declared, but must car
ry it until we reach the line where
there is realistic machinery which
will guarantee human rights and
peace in the future"
