all over the world look to American
women for guidance. 'The time is
over when we can sidestep our re-
sponsibility," she asserted.
On the other hand she suggested
that American women can learn
much from the women of other
lands who are voting for the first
time. War and its aftermath have
shown them that they must take
hold politically and economically
If they are to rebuild stability for
their children, if there is to be edu-
cation, work and anything resem-
bling peace with their neighbors,'
she said. Necessity drives them
and they make Roadway because
they must"
Both Mrs. Bolton and Mrs. Fer
guSon warned that women must be
willing to take the raps" If they
are going to achieve a place in
political life.
1T takes courage, but we should
be willing to risk our necks to build
stronger America Mrs. Ferguson
declared.
Mrs. Ferguson, a past president
Of the Chicago Alliance of Business
and Professional Women, also cited
some statistics showing the poten-
tial power of women's organiza-
tons.
Approximately 100000 Ameri-
can women are members of some
club, she declared. These women,
she continued, meet an average of
Is times year and each of their
meetings averages two hours.
Think of this unsounded reser-
voir of potential influence, If they
were to mobilize" she remarked.
Nothing could stop them"
