Commissions Effects
The commission. which was
organized 20 years ago, has
been great force in bringing
about women's suffrage in
the hemisphere. When 1t was
organized. only women of the
United States had the right
to vote; now women can vote
in every country except Para
quay.
Today the group devotes its
attention to the extension of
civil. political. economic and
social rights for the women Of
the Americas.
The conference, which got
under way over the week end
with registrations. etc. had its
first plenary session scheduled
today. This is the first time
the commission has met here
since 1916.
Tonight the ladies will be
honored guests at a reception
at the Pan American Union
and tomorrow they will visit
the White House, where they
will be received by Mrs.
Eisenhower.
The conference will last for
10 days. and Mrs. Floyd w.

sentative on the commission.

CITIES OUTLINE NEEDS TO
LEGISLATORS

Twenty-eight Maricopa Coun-
ty lawmakers were reminded
last night that Arizona cities
and towns are the captiveS of
the State Legislature because
of restrictive state laws placed
upon municipalities. The re-
minder came from w. A. Moeur,
Director of the Arizona League
Of Cities and Towns, who ap-
pealed for serious consideration
of the needs of municipalities
in the orth-coming legislative
session. The lawmakers were
guests of Mayors Of IL Maricopa
County municipalities and the
Mayor of Tucson at a dinner
meeting at Hotel Westward Ho.
The Leagues program was pre-
Sented to the legislators by Mr..
Moeur who explained that 78
per cent of the residents Of Ari-
zona live within the, boundaries
of incorporated cities and towns,
whereas 20 years ago less than
80 per cent were residents of
municipalities.
Highlights of the Leagues le-
gislative program are: 1. Amend
the 1856 bank deposit law to
make it's provisions permissive
instead of mandatory upon ci-
ties and towns; 2. Legislation to
enable cities and towns to file
liens and recover for elimina-
ton of weeds, trash, rubbish and
fire hazards on private pro-
perty; 8. Increase the gasoline
tax, with two-thirds of any in
