Mrs. Johanna Snowden Porter
of Chicago, ILL.,. was elected presi-
dent.
Mrs. Porter, with a delegation
of Federated women including
Mrs. S. Joe Brown, made tour
of the Northwest In 1923 and
stopped at Spokane where the
Washington State Federation was
in annual session and they par
.ticipated in the deliberations.
] This delegation of Regional
women continued their journey to
Seattle, where a meeting was
held; then on to Tacoma, where
another session was held. At the
Tacoma meeting Mrs. Cynthia Nc
, Cabe, soprano, sang group of
songs for the delegation. They
were so impressed and charmed
with Mrs. McCabe's voice that
they induced her to accompany
them to Portland. Here another
session was held and Mrs. Nc
Cabe sang some more for the
Portland people. Mrs. Porter OBJ
tanned a promise from Mrs. Nc
Cabe that she would attend the
next Biennial session of the MA.

attended the Chicago meeting and

companist.
