community, a better world. Mrs. William H. Dudenhoffer., State President used as the topic for her address, "The World in Your Hands." She state! there were two worlds - your own lit th private world, and the outside world about us. If we can accept the responsibility for the outside forces, we can then control our own private world. She further stated that generally people are concerned only if they are personally affected by war. crime and traffic. If you have a loved one in service, or a clos< relative or friend against whom a crime has been committed, or that some member of the family has been involved in a fatal accident, then and only then do we become sufficiently concerned to begin tc do something about these things. She closed her address by urging all the Clubs to continue to support 1. The Latin Scholarship. 2. Dimes for Art / Music. 3. Law Abidance and Safety Community Projects. And to double the Circulation in the In liana Clubwoman's Magazine. To support the Membership Increase Drive now in effect from March 1967 through March 1968.

She lemmied the First Lady that she too was a mother, an » it is the mothers oi the Nation who are c>ncerned about the increase in crime. As of this date Mis. Johnson hasn't agreed, but LaDine is hopeful. So many fine things came out of this meeting but space does not permit the telling of them all. Before the meeting was conclude! the following resolutions Wt re adoptt d: 1. That 11 clubs work diligently to complete their projects and reports - cmpciating fully with all projects suggested by the District President. 2. That tne memners of the 13th Dist.
