WOMEN VOTERS HEAR POLITICS DISCUSSED; 10 LEAGUES REPORT CONXKKSVILLE, Intl.. De. 11. Mrs. Lewis Rope, of Hartford. Conn., was chief speaker at the annual sixth ristrict convention of the Indiana league of Women Voters, which w-.s held Saturday at the Hotel MacFarlan. A reception preceded the 1 o'clock luncheon which was attended by 123 women. Mrs. Rose spoke in the afternoon and reports from 10 leagues were made. Mrs. Charles Surrendorf, Miss Marguerite Hill and Miss Lucille Carney attended the convention from Richmond. Mrs. Christian Eby, of Connersviile, district chairman, presided at the convention. - "Government is national housekeeping." Mrs. Rose declared in her speech adding that all legislation, '"good or bad, affects the details of our lives.
The women, she continued, ought to be interested and qualified for wont
in that field.
Child welfare and the outlawing of war were named as the two things the League of Women Voters are work--ing for especially. It is not, Mrs. Rose said, a "third party," as some have thought, but a club of women "working for education in political affairs and efficiency in government." Citizenship In Action "The League of Women Voters Is really citizenship in action patriotism on the job," according to Mrs. Rose's definition. The league at present has 2,000,000 members in the United States and controls about 6.000,000 "votes, as it is working in co-operation with- the Women's National Federation of Clubs. Mrs. Rose, who is vice-president of the Hartford. Conn., league, is a forceful and convincing speaker, with, wide knowledge on current affairs. She was in France during the war and recently traveled over Europe studying conditions in the different countries. She attended the Pan-American conference at Baltimore last April and there came in close touch with conditions in South American countries. "The Renaisance of the European Women" was the subject of Mrs. Rose's address before the convention. The moral, economic and industrial problems facing women throughout the world at the present time, she said, are much the same, and everywhere they are united for working for better conditions in the world.
