The Cancellation Service

Every since the Taft-Hartley act was enacted,
major labor organizations have been agitating for
return to the Department of Labor of the Cancellation
service which TIL (along with it's other vices) took
from the jurisdiction of the Secretary of Labor and
set IL up as an Independent bureau the federal Media
ton and Cancellation Service
One OF the excuses given for taking this service
from the department wherein it was placed by the
Organic Act of 1913, (which set up the Department
OF Labor was that medators could be impartial only

cuse doesn't seem to hold water when pertinent facts

Echoing the words spoken by
Mrs. Marc Laws, a member Of
the National Board of Directors
of the League of Women Voters,
on her return from Italy last
year, Mrs. McClintock recalled,
Democracy can't be bought, can't
be taught; it must be shared" "
She added that in a sense this
is the goal of the unit plan.
In line with this movement ito
bring the town meeting back to
the community" the league is
simplifying its procedures in
every way. Before this plan
was put in operation. league
members were becoming one sided
in their knowledge" Mrs. McClin-
took observed. Some have be-
come authorities on the United
Nations, others OIL economics and
still others in finance and budget.

mittees will be entirely elimin-
ated; they are valuable work.
ing part of the league. But they
will be cut down in size, and
their duty will be to do the tech
nical research for use by the
units in their discussions.
The unit meetings will also &C
complish something that was not
possible with the large meetings,
Mrs. McClintock said. Members
will be able to use their thinking
processes more and arrive at their
own conclusions rather than de-
pend on the conclusions of some
one else"
The large league meeting will
not be eliminated, either. Mrs. Nc
Clintock explained. I'VE will cut
down in their number" she said
but we intend to continue with
our courses in Know Your Con-
gress' and Know Your Washing
tom"
One Of the principal objectives
Of Mrs. McClintock's administra-
ton will be a concentration on the
Know Your Washington" course
since the Capitals sesquicenten-
NAL celebration will be one of the
main events of the coming year.
BY this fall, the leagues new
unit system should be well estab-
lished, Mrs. McClintock pointed
out. and just to make it more un-
derstandable to the membership
a general meeting will be called in
September to orientate the mem
bership to the new plan.

members belonging to one COM
munity group may visit other

The whole idea was presented
to league members in letter
which reflects the new league
presidents ever-ready wit. When
the women voters opened their
mail, they read:
Dear League Members: There
comes a time in every woman's S
life when there is need for honest
self-examination. AS your Board
of Directors. we have been looking
into the mirror. What we see
there Is all too clear: We've
grown too big for our britches!
CLOSER examination reveals typ
ical symptoms: Fatty accumula'
ton in some spots underde-
velopment in others . saggine
muscles sluggish circulation
general lassitude, etc.
Face to face with such symp-
toms our first reaction was shock
A second look convinced us thai
they are durable. Still looking
we realize that, like counting cal
ories and exercising. any self-ad'
ministered treatment is going tt
mean hard work. some menta
anguish, self discipline and CO.
operation from us all.
ITO you as member, we are
therefore proposing to reorganize
our league on the unit plan. The
unit plan, under various names
has had increasing success in
other leagues suffering from con-
ditions similar to our own. In
practice it means fewer large
meetings and more small ones. 1t
means more opportunity for all
member participation"
The idea behind the unit plan
is, of course, to get back to the
original aim of the league, Mrs.
McClintock explained-to pro-
mote action and informed par
ticipation of citizens in their Gov
eminent.
Many people have the mis-
taken idea that all league men,
bers have college degrees" Mrs.
McClintock said. That's where
we think the unit plan will have
its advantages-in correcting this

New President of Women Voters League
Arronqes Unit System for Meetings
By Ruth Dean

When Mrs. John c. McClintock,
young and energetic new presl-
dent of the District League OF
Women Voters, takes the helm
next fall, she will have accom-
plished already the first great task
of her administration.
She has been at work setting
up a new plan of operation for
the league-a unit system of meet
ings designed to supplement the
large central group meeting.
This doesn't mean that Mrs.
McClintock hasn't her own family
duties. When she was interviewed
at her Georgetown home last week,
she has just returned from taking
her five children to their Con-
necticut summer home, and was
preparing to leave herself after
completing the mammoth job OF
setting in motion the wheels OF
the new league unit plan.
Mrs. McClintock has an ease OF
manner and quiet assurance that
reveal her administrative quail
ties. I'VE in the league felt a
serious need for getting back to
the community" she said. I'VE
were getting too technical and too
far away from the grass roots" "
The unit plan is designed for
getting back to the grass roots. u
The plan, in effect, subdivides the
large group into smaller ones to
enable all members to have full
opportunity for individual par
ticipation in league business.
Ideally. each unit will have
about IS to rs members. with each
league member required to belong
to q unit, Mrs. McClintock ex-
planned. But the provisions Of the
