<p style="text-align: right;">Zurich 7. Eierbrecht 34. 14. I. 1921</p>
<p>[Miss] Jane [Addams], President of the Womens Intern. League for Peace and Freedom.</p>
<p>Dear [Miss Addams],</p>
<p>I am sure you do not remember me nor my name -- but if all the same -- I write you, it is because the reason that makes me do it is one, that concerns "Peace" in a most intense way: it is the question of the occupation of a part of Germany by [colored troops]. The articles I include are some of the numerous protests that reach us, -- although a strict censure makes a real communication impossible. -- It is no doubt, that this occupation -- felt as a deadly insult by the population -- is and will be a cause of hatred, more than any other one; more than the infamous blockade, prolonged after the war, starving thousands of innocents, ruining the health & life of the coming [generation] and, in consequence, it must [unfailingly] form the germ of a new war.</p>
<p>Dear [Miss Addams], -- we, European women, can "protest" -- of course, but who cares for that? We have no possibility to force those, who now have the power, to hear our voices. There is only one country in the world, that has this possibility, -- it is <u>yours</u>; and that for several reasons</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">1) because in America women have the right of suffrage and, -- in great [part] are <u>ripe</u> to use it.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">2) because you are not yet members of the "League of Nations", -- and, [<span style="text-decoration: line-through;">illegible</span>] your joining it [being] considered by the whole world as an absolute necessity for its existence -- you <u>have</u> the <u>might </u>and the <u>possibility</u> to make yourself heard.</p>
<p>So I transmit you the very intense prayer to take it into your hands and into your serious consideration to help in this dreadful question. I am sure you have received this prayer also other sides, -- and I know that I am speaking also in the name of many of my country, who also suffer the more intensely, as they are so deeply impotent to do <u>anything</u> themselves! May our prayer confirm you in your work, if you have [page 2] already begun it! And may you succeed, -- so that our children may be spared such horrors as we have to pass through!</p>
<p>God bless you for what you will try to do in this thing!</p>
<p>21. I. 21. I just intended to send the letter away, when I was called to the deathbed of a dearly beloved son-in law; therefore the long interruption.</p>
<p>I must add still, that a great Zurich Womens [Organization] (Frauen-Zentrale)* sent to the Secretary of the "League" Mr. Eric Drummond -- a petition about this subject; the only answer was, -- that "the letter had arrived well --" During the Session, the thing was not mentioned, as much as we know.</p>
And now, the newspapers bring the information, that in early spring the African [Troops] (black men) shall come again into the [Palatinate] from where they were removed for the wintertime!!
<p>With hearty greetings</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">yours very truly</p>

<p>Dear Madam,</p>
<p>Our Congress began & ended under the most [favorable] terms. The Government adopted it & the Prime Minister in his inaugural speech, stated that he is awaiting the issue of its work in order to regulate the Legislative reforms regarding our rights & the protection of the childhood.</p>
<p>The committee for the study of the articles of the Constitution to be reformed has already accepted, almost unanimously, the reform granting to women civil & political rights.</p>
<p>On the day which was devoted to foreign institutions & organizations & on which Mrs. Bellini spoke about the World's Woman's Christian Temperance Union, I had asked Dr. [Papadopoulos], who has spent several years of his life in Chicago, to speak about the [page 2] Hull House. He gave a very interesting speech exposing your work & all you have accomplished for the emigrants in general & for the Greeks in particular. The audience (& the house was full that day) heard with the utmost attention & they were so interested that at the end of the speech they unanimously expressed the wish to [transmit] to you the admiration we all feel for your work & our immense gratitude for all you are doing in behalf of our fellow countrymen.</p>
<p>Hoping, dear Madam, that you will be pleased to hear that our Congress has been so successful.</p>
<div style="text-align: center;">I remain</div>

<p>My dear Miss Addams: --</p>
<p>The Philadelphia Committee is very anxious to secure an audience at the Convention of the League of Women Voters for our foreign speakers. After hearing from Mrs. Lewis and Miss Dulles, I wrote to Mrs. Park and I have received the enclosed reply. In my letter to Mrs. Park I told her that we would ask for only a few minutes each for our women and that they would speak of course on subjects in harmony with the platform of the League of Women Voters. Do you suppose that if you appealed personally to Mrs. Park, something could be done? The Philadelphia women feel that it is most important that this be arranged and I can see that it will be very useful for many reasons.</p>
<p>Everything is progressing splendidly for the prospective tour. Mrs. Villard’s group is cooperating in New York, and our local organizations are responding enthusiastically.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Yours sincerely,</p>

<p>My dear Miss Culver --</p>
<p>We have had such interesting time in Calcutta with a group of women who represent the Brahmo Samaj -- the Unitarian sect who were represented at the World's Fair in Chicago by [Moojawdar?] I recall him very clearly and wanted to look up his followers here but quite unprepared to find them much advanced and delightful people as they proved to be. [page 2]</p>
<p>They gave up caste 90 years ago and at last are not being prosecuted for it and of course they took their women out of "purdah." The group of women whom we [met] were very public spirited, were carrying on a model girls school and doing all sorts of things. I spoke [for] them twice, once in a library hall where largely men came and again in a walled garden to women alone some of whom were [guests?] who could only come to such a meeting. I am sending you a [blank] invitation to the purdah meeting which might interest you and also a book [written?] by Dr Sen's daughter (who [page 3] was married to an Indian Prince) because the English so admired her advanced training.</p>
<p>Lord Lytton, the Governor of Bengal with whom we lunched and every one else spoke of this very small group as the leading liberal influences in Calcutta but unfortunately like all Unitarian bodies they seem to be growing less and less.</p>
<p>India is a curious mixture of old and new, we lunched one day with Mr [Bose] who kept an old fashioned household of three generations containing more than a hundred people. [page 4]</p>
<p>We lunched with him alone and were afterward taken to the woman's quarters. His wife seemed contented but there was a very restless daughter-in-law there who had been educated in English schools and had tried purdah "too late" as she sadly remarked.</p>
<p>We are on our way to Burma for ten days then back to South India and Ceylon before we finally sail for China & Japan -- I will have lots of time to visit with you when I get back. Love to Mrs Thomas & the rest of your family. Always lovingly yours Jane Addams</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">Strand Hotel.</p>
<div style="text-align: right;">March 12" 1923</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">en route from [Rangoon] to Madras, Ceylon</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">Bay of Bengal.</div>
<p>My dear Mrs Lovett --</p>
<p>I think the lecture courses are of the very best we have ever had at Hull-House and I do hope that it is coming out well in attendance as I should think that the current events [illegible] would be [illegible] to the [conf?]. I am very grateful for letters from H.H. and find myself restless when they are too long delayed, but I do not know why I find it so difficult to write. I imagine it is due to the astounding variety of new impressions, [illegible] of [which waylays?] the other is [report?] [illegible]. We have been hurrying a little to keep ahead of the heat which we are told may envelop us at any moment [although] so far we have never really suffered from it. Fortunately at Ceylon we will be so near the equator that nothing more can be done about it and from then on will be going steadily north until we reach [Peking], so that we will take a more leisurely pace. [page 2]</p>
<p>The Nationalist movement is of course with us everywhere not least in Burma -- and [although] we have been entertained by the English governors in almost every town we have visited we have by no means failed to see a good deal of the other side. The woman's movement is absolutely fascinating -- the Burma women have an equal vote with men and are most energetic in mission and politics. We saw them just after we left a Purdah party in Calcutta where the women seemed to be from another world -- they are always asking me to talk about "social welfare" -- they have already learned much of the [illegible] and [cooperate] with the English women in some genuine work.</p>
<p>I do hope that all goes happily at Hull-House, and that the art school and [allied?] matters are flourishing. Almost everywhere we find attempts to revive India's arts and industries some of them quite charming. The missions are [setting] them up with a good deal of spirit. Burma is full of American Baptists, more than 200 of them in the country. The Am. Assn. in Rangoon gave us a reception and we meet others in the colleges & schools. One respects them very much on the educational side certainly and in their [illegible] reports in the stronghold of Buddhism.</p>
<p>Please give my love to Nancy Jane, who I am quite homesick to see.</p>
<p>I am always devotedly yours Jane Addams</p>

<div style="text-align: right;">Hawse End</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">Keswick</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">May 13.</div>
<p>Dear Fräulein Glücklich</p>
<p>I have been overwhelmed with writing that had to be done to put off or readjust all the engagements I had made for work in London this week. It is now nearly post time, but I must send you [<span style="text-decoration: line-through;">illegible</span>] as much as there is time for before the postman comes.</p>
<p>[<span style="text-decoration: line-through;">illegible</span>] I forgot to say in my last letter what I am sure cannot have ↑been↓ neccesary, that those members of the W.I.L.P.F. Executive who are in Rome will of course consider with our Italian members whether it is desirable to ask for interviews with M. Mussolini, or the Pope, or both, to deliver to them the message of our Hague Conference & beg them to use their influence in support of the demand -- felt & voiced now in so many countries -- for A New Peace. I do not think it is ever good to <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">make</span> ask for an interview just for the sake of doing so, unless we have something quite definite to say, & the right people to say it; and of course our members in the country concerned should <u>always</u> be consulted before taking any action that involves dealing with their governments. But I hope to hear that those of you who are meeting in Rome this week <span style="text-decoration: underline;">do</span> feel a "concern" [page 2] as the Quakers say, to carry our message to the Italian gov<span style="text-decoration: underline;">t</span> & the Head of that largest ↑& oldest↓ of all international organizations, the Catholic Church, that you have been able to form a really first-rate & representative deputation to do this.</p>
<p>If you see M. Mussolini it might be well to ask if Italy will not take the initiative in proposing that the L. of N. shall call a special conference of the League <u>plus America, Germany & Russia</u> to consider the [<span style="text-decoration: line-through;">Reparations</span>] situation that has arisen out of the unsolved Reparations problem <u>as a matter that concerns the peace & welfare of the whole world</u>; but do not, I beg you, either suggest, or give any support to the suggestion that the <u>L. of N. Council</u> should itself try to settle the Reparations question. What we learned in Paris, & what the L. N. Council has since done -- the matter of the Saar, makes it practically certain that for the <u>Council</u> to deal with the question wd not [only] not produce a just solution, but would <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">lead to</span> ↑result in↓ the final & irremediable discrediting of the L. of N. itself -- not of course of the <u>idea</u> of the L. of N., but of the present instrument which embodies that idea. Those who do not want to see the present League scrapped should be the strongest in opposing any proposal to trust the [honor] & credit of the League in the [page 3] hands of the <u>Council</u> of the League, composed & actuated as it is today. All that the Council should be asked or permitted to do is to <u>take the initiative in calling a world conference</u> -- to create the conditions in which it will become possible to arrive at a just solution of the Reparations problem & to lay the foundations of a real peace. You will remember this point was insisted on from the first, at the Hague & after. We never contemplated asking the Council to deal with the Reparations question in the making of a New Peace itself. I cannot understand how the L. of N. Union, led by Lord Robert Cecil, can have arrived at making such a demand. Even that most uncritical supporter of the league, Mr. Wilson Harris, <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">said</span> ↑wrote↓ after the last council meeting that the shame of its action in the matter of the Saar had dealt a blow to the prestige of the whole League that it would perhaps be impossible for it to recover from.</p>
<p>I hope you will have some helpful talks with our Italian members & be able to give some help and support to the Italian section whilst you are in the country. They must be having a very difficult time these days. Please give my warm remembrance to Mrs. Genoni and her daughter. [page 4]</p>
<p>I hope also that you may be able to hold a good Peace Meeting, with our message of A NEW PEACE, during the meeting of the I.W.S.A.</p>
<p>You will have heard from Mrs. Swanwick of the sudden latest development of the Provisional Committee for a Joint Congress of Women's International organizations. I was unable to attend the last meeting, & Miss Sheepshanks went as my proxy, with Mrs. Swanwick. The meeting was to consider the drafts proposed by the various organizations for the sections of the proposed Joint Congress in 1926 of which <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">each was to be</span> they were to be respectively responsible. The W.I.L.P.F. was to be responsible for organizing the "Peace Day," having been asked to do so unanimously by the other organizations represented. (I.W.S.A. to organize the "Civics" day, I.C.W. the "Health" day, the International Anti-Vice organization (I also forgot its proper name) the "morals" day, <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">the Temperance women</span> etc.) The whole plan was of course still in an embryonic condition, not ready yet to report to the Ex Comtees of the various organizations for their consideration. Well, Mrs. Swanwick went to the meeting with draft proposals from the [program] of the peace day <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">whose subject was to be called "Prevention of War Causes of War."</span> [page 5]</p>
<p>Only 3 members of the committee were there besides our 2 representatives -- Lady Aberdeen, Mrs. Ogilvie Gordon (I.C.W.), Mrs. Alys Russell (University Women). After some rather indefinite talk Lady Aberdeen suddenly said it seemed to her dreadful that women couldn't call a Congress on Peace this year. She thought it could & should be done. Mrs. ↑Swanwick↓ asked if the I. C. W. could do it, and Lady A. said "yes!" and that she herself as President had power to do it, & would.</p>
<p>I was dismayed when I heard this; because that was exactly the original proposal made when we first met in the autumn --, both Lady A. on behalf of the I.C.W. & Mrs. Catt on behalf of the I.W.S.A. wanting to call such a conference. But it was immediately evident directly the project was discussed</p>
<p>(a) that they had not their respective Committees behind them -- opinions were hotly divided (like French & Italian members in particular being passionately opposed to those organizations becoming responsible for a <u>Peace</u> Congress)</p>
<p>(b) that <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">neith</span> both organizations were prohibited by their constitutions from dealing with questions that were matter of controversy between different countries -- a limitation that as Alice Salomons pointed out in a very moving & dignified little speech, made practical & effective discussion of peace problems impossible; and [page 6] for the women of the world to come together, with pomp and [advertizement], at this time of the day to talk many pious platitudes about peace, avoiding all the practical issue, would not only not do any good, but would do positive harm -- would be one more disillusionment of the suffering peoples, one more triumph for the cynics.</p>
<p>However, Mrs. Swanwick and Miss Sheepshanks apparently both welcomed the proposal when Lady Aberdeen made it again this time. Perhaps the I.C.W. has come to feel differently about the extent to which its constitution would limit such as its scope in participating in such a Conference. The way proposed at the last meeting at which I was present wd. have been a satisfactory way of [illegible] the situation -- for the <u>W.I.L.P.F.</u> to be responsible for the program of the Peace day because we have no such limitations, for the other organizations to cooperate so far as they could. If the <u>I.C.W.</u> is responsible for convening and organizing the conference. I am afraid they won't be so free. However, there it is; and they took over Mrs. Swanwick's draft wholesale. Mrs. S. is delighted -- thinks it much [better?] the I.C.W. should do it if they will. It remains for us to see to it that [page 7] the draft is not watered down, & that the procedure permits of really full and fine discussion of practical as well as theoretical aspects of the question "How to prevent war."</p>
<p>There is to be one more meeting of the ↑<u>provisional</u>↓ Comtee I understand before a report is made to all the constituent organizations. But I send you this account meanwhile as you will doubtless be seeing members of both the I.C.W. and I.W.S.A. interested in the proposal.</p>
<p>I have written confidentially of course, for you and other members of our committee; <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">not for</span> you must not show this letter ↑to others↓ as it stands, though you may use this information it contains.</p>

<p>My dear Mrs. Hull:</p>
<p>I do feel it is hard for the International Council to feel their way blocked by our unpopularity, and I wish very much we could resign making a statement that we do not wish to embarrass them in the raising of money, securing halls, etc. I think we could make a statement of our position quite as clearly as if they asked us to resign and ↑it↓ would also put us in a better position ↑than if they did↓. However, if the Board feel otherwise, that is for the Board to decide. I am of course, not really a member, although you are always so kind about letting me talk that I almost forget I am not. I think the Council are going to have all kinds of difficulty about money as we did, but they will always have an excellent excuse.</p>
<p>I am enclosing a letter from Alice Hamilton which has just come.</p>
<p>I think my decision right about Mrs. Catt's meeting, although I have also been urged to go as ↑a↓ delegate from the Women's Trade Union League. I am enclosing a copy of a letter from her which is as you see, the end of a long correspondence. I should be glad to have it returned. Please do not worry about the situation, it is after all what we have had for a long time.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Affectionately yours,</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">Jane Addams. [signed]</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">↑P.S. I am quite ready to abide by the decision of the Board of course.↓</p>

<p style="text-align: right;">January 14, 1924</p>
<p>My dear Mrs. Catt:</p>
<p>I am very much interested of course, in your letter, and while I agree with what you say, I still feel that it is the inevitable fate of a reform movement to attach what is so often called a "lunatic fringe." Both the Suffrage and the Peace Movement have had this experience; perhaps no one more so than the early Abolitionists. It is part of the situation and the movements must go on in spite of it.</p>
<p>I have been requested also by the Women's Trade Union League to represent them as a delegate and have of course, declined that as well. I hope it is not a mistake and anything which simplifies the situation may make the meeting easier for you.</p>
<p>With all good wishes for the success of the Conference, I am,</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Faithfully yours,</p>

<div>Miss Jane Addams,</div>
<div>Chicago, Ill.</div>
<p>Dear Madam:</p>
<p>The Sixth Quinquennial meeting of The International Council of Women will be held in Washington in May 1925. Previous meetings have been held at five year intervals in London, Rome, Toronto, Berlin and Kristiania, but this is the first time that the United States has ever had the honor of entertaining the representatives of this distinguished body of thirty-six million women.</p>
<p>The National Council of Women Inc. made up of thirty-eight of the most important National organizations of women in the United States with a membership of ten million women will be the hostess.</p>
<p>When the American invitation was extended the Marchioness of Aberdeen and Temair, President of the International Council expressed the conviction that the only thing that could possibly stand in the way of the success of the meeting would be the high rate of exchange existing in foreign lands, which makes the cost of travel prohibitive and which in the small and very poor countries, might bar the attendance of delegates.</p>
<p>To overcome this difficulty and to cover the expense of the Quinquennial, it therefore becomes necessary for the National Council to raise a Convention fund and in the knowledge that this project, which will bring to America, delegates from thirty foreign lands to discuss with the women of America the great world problems in the settlement of which they will undoubtedly be a potential factor, will appeal to thinking men and women, we are asking a few representative and public spirited Americans to share in the entertainment of the foreign delegates and to help the women of America to bring about what will most certainly be, with their kind help, the most notable gathering of women ever held anywhere in the world.</p>
<p>Six hundred dollars will cover the cost of bringing one foreign delegate to the Convention and we are earnestly hoping that a few men and women who appreciate the significance of this meeting will assume this responsibility.</p>
<p>Will you honor and aid us by accepting nomination as a Patron of the National Council and sending us your check for One Hundred Dollars or as much more as you may elect to give.</p>
<p>We shall most earnestly hope for your [cooperation] and please be assured that be the amount what it may, it will be most gratefully received.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">Very truly yours,</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">Eva Perry Moore [signed]</p>
<div>Mrs. Philip North Moore</div>

<p>MRS. Philip North Moore, President, and the Board of Directors of The National Council of Women of the United States, Inc., have the honor to announce that the International Council of Women, Marchioness of Aberdeen and Temair, President, has accepted the National Council's invitation and will hold its Sixth Quinquennial Convention in Washington in May, 1925.</p>
<p>The International Council of Women is made up of thirty-four National Councils, with a membership of thirty-six million women.</p>
<p>The National Council of the United States includes thirty-eight National organizations, and a membership of ten million women.</p>
<p>Previous Quinquennials have been held in London, Berlin, Toronto, Rome and Kristiania.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Your Duty as Hostess</p>
<p>THE National Council hopes that the women of America and particularly every woman in the Council will feel that this Convention is her special responsibility and that upon each and every one of us devolves the important duty of making our guests from foreign lands glad that they took the long trip to American for the purpose of conferring with American women on the vital world problems that will come up for discussion and in the settlement of which the women of the world will beyond a doubt, be a potential factor.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">To Finance the Quinquennial</p>
<p>TO properly finance the Quinquennial, it becomes necessary for the National Council to appeal for the [cooperation] of generous Americans who, realizing the far-reaching importance of this, the most notable gathering of Women ever held anywhere in the world, will act as Patrons for the Quinquennial, by giving financial support in this great project.</p>
<p>When the invitation of the National Council was extended Lady Aberdeen expressed the conviction that the only thing that might stand in the way of a large attendance was the high rate of exchange now existing in many foreign countries which would make the cost of the trip prohibitive to many councils that would ordinarily send delegates.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Norway's Plan</p>
<p>In order to insure the presence of women from small or very poor countries at the Kristiania, Norway, Quinquennial -- Fru Ann Backer, the [page 3] energetic Chairman of the Quinquennial Meeting in 1920, not only obtained an appropriation of forty thousand Kroner from the Storthing, part of which sum was used to defray the expenses of the delegates from Iceland, Ukraine, Greece, Serbia and Austria, but she also secured a great number of Quinquennial contributors, throughout Norway, whose subscriptions adequately met the cost of the Convention.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The First "Home-Coming"</p>
<p>ALTHOUGH the great vision back of having the women of all the countries of the world united for the common good of mankind, belonged to our foremost woman American, Susan B. Anthony, and although the distinction of really amalgamating all the various elements into one great organization belongs to another prominent American, also now gone to her reward, May Wright Sewall, who was President of the International Council, the largest and eldest sister, America, has never had a home-coming, -- a family celebration. Who of us is there that has not gone to great trouble and expense to entertain distinguished visitors? Who of us is there who has not, upon occasion, given up her own bed in order to make an honored or welcome guest comfortable? What difference is there between the family and the nation which is made up of families? Shall it be said of the National Council of Women of the United States that, having bidden a guest, it cannot provide for the presence and entertainment of that guest?</p>
<p>The National Council of Women in accordance with the established custom, under the inspiring leadership of its President, Mrs. Philip North Moore, already has plans underway for a great nation-wide Campaign to secure the fund that will be adequate to cover the entire expenses of the Quinquennial and to insure the attendance of its delegates.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The International Council of Women</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">By Mrs. Nathaniel E. Harris, General Chairman of Quinquennial</p>
<p>PERHAPS it is not generally realized that women workers for social welfare all over the world have for many years been linked together in the great League of Nations, under a banner which if carried to victory, would transform all International relations.</p>
<p>The International Council of Women is a Federation of National Councils of Women in thirty-nine countries with an approximate membership of thirty-six million women making for the promotion [page 4] of unity and mutual understanding between all associations of women working for the common welfare of humanity.</p>
<p>It was formed in Washington in 1888 by a group of far-seeing American women headed by Susan B. Anthony, who believed that an organized movement of women pledged to the service of humanity would become a great power for the promotion of the highest good of the family and the State.</p>
<p>After the World's Fair at Chicago in 1893, where women from many countries were able to meet together and discuss plans for developing the new movement, it spread with unexpected rapidity. During the intervening years the International Council has continued to gather strength, meeting periodically in Council or in executive in most of the capitals of Europe, and being received by crowned heads and presidents, leading statesmen and municipal authorities.</p>
<p>The Council serves as a clearing house for all of its organizations. It aims to initiate and stress only such national plans as are not undertaken by any constituent organization. Its attainments, however, are the sum total of all the work and all the attainments of all the organizations within the Council.</p>
<p>At the Quinquennial Conventions each National Council is entitled to ten delegates and ten alternates, and all Council members are most welcome guests. The National Council of the United States sent its full quota of delegates and alternates, as well as thirty additional visitors to Norway, making the American party total fifty members. The depreciation in exchange, unless righted is certain to have an effect upon those countries impoverished by the war. Yet a splendid interest exists, and we have reason to expect a large number of delegates.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Quinquennial Day</p>
<p>Quinquennial day in the National Council organizations -- last Friday in March or the nearest meeting date thereof.</p>
<p>We hope that every organization in the National Council will be on the Honor Roll.</p>

<div>Section U.S.A.,</div>
<div>Women's International League for Peace and Freedom,</div>
<div>Swarthmore, Penna.</div>
<p>My dear Mrs. Hull:</p>
<p>I am sending you a copy of the letter which I was obliged to send to our Executive Committee on account of serious complications.</p>
<p>Almost immediately after sending this out, with most disheartening letters from many sources, I was called to Washington by a letter from Mrs. Cook, withdrawing the use of Memorial Continental Hall, which had been offered eighteen months ago, and which had been made an entirely legal contract.</p>
<p>The trouble lay in our membership and from sources outside of what has been called our "patriotic members." They would not listen to any explanation or any questions as to the advisability of believing the source which had presented these matters to them, so that we were finally obliged to accept their ultimatum and give up Continental Hall. That does not trouble me very much, aside from the fact that they could act in that way, because we have obtained the new Washington Auditorium, which I think will be very excellent for our purposes.</p>
<p>It means, however, an explanation to the world, and I am only hoping that they will not give the explanation that they gave me.</p>
<p>With all these matters in mind, I am sure you will realize that the wise thing to do is to resign.</p>
<p>I very much prefer, just as I said before, that you should send in your own resignation, and that we may be able to say you have resigned.</p>
<p>This must not be presented to Miss Addams in any other way than as a necessity.</p>
<p>I am sure she will appreciate it even as we do.</p>
<p>The Executive Committee thinks as I do that it would be wise for you to give your own resignation and no one except yourselves and ourselves need know that we have presented this matter in the light that seemed to us necessary.</p>
<p>Please let me hear from you at your earliest opportunity, because I understand we cannot present our appropriation with any possibility of success as matters are at the present time. [page 2]</p>
<p>With very great regard, I am</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Sincerely yours,</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">EVA PERRY MOORE</p>
<div>Copy to Mrs. Lewis</div>
<div>Mrs. Post</div>
<div>Mrs. Mead.</div>
<p>Since all this is written I have advice from some very prominent members that I had not written to -- that some organizations will resign, thinking it better to resign themselves than to <u>ask</u> another to resign.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">What a world!!</p>

The transcription of the document
<p>↑Attention! This is the work of an extra stenographer. We are too pushed to have the letter done over, but I am ashamed to have it leave our office. Will you and Miss Addams please exercise leniency. C C C↓</p>
<div style="text-align: center;">CARRIE CHAPMAN CATT</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">171 MADISON AVENUE</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">NEW YORK</div>
<p style="text-align: right;">December 29, 1924.</p>
<div>Mrs. James W. [Morrisson],</div>
<div>1431 N. State Parkway,</div>
<div>Chicago, Illinois.</div>
<p>My dear Mrs. [Morrisson]:</p>
<p>I was just on the point of writing Miss [Addams], and now I shall avail myself of the opportunity to answer your letter and over your shoulder, as it were, to direct some inquires to Miss [Addams]. Will you be good enough to pass this letter on to her.</p>
<p>It was voted some time ago that there might be 100 honorary delegates to the Conference on the Cause & Cure of War, and these delegates would be excused from paying any fee. They were to be given the right of discussion but not the right of vote. Each organization was <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">organized</span> ↑authorized↓ to nominate women for this list. At the next meeting of the Arrangements Committee, one organization made vigorous objection to the entire plan. Her point was that if these ↑cooperating↓ organizations were to agree upon a plan of [cooperation] which was to be recommended to their representative organizations, that the plan ought not to be <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">accepted</span> ↑formulated↓ by ↑[the?] [illegible]↓ persons who were not official delegates of the organizations concerned. After considerable discussion, the original vote was reconsidered and there are to be no honorary delegates or members of the Conference. Instead a complimentary ticket may be given to a few distinguished persons and on that list is Miss [Addams'] name. Such visitors will have no vote and are not expected to join in the discussion of the regular sessions. However, as no time is allowed either for discussion or <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">to</span> [voting,?] this is not a discrimination. The vote ↑[however?]↓ leaves me in doubt as to just what the status of these invited visitors will be. I propose to ask that they be given the right of discussion in the open forums. I feel that I do not have any right myself to define their status and the Arrangements Committee did not do it. Miss [Addams] will receive a formal invitation with a complimentary ticket of admission.</p>
<p>I do not know what you mean by Miss MacDowell's Committee unless the League of Women Voters has asked its regular Committees to name delegates. I think it would be very much better for Miss [Addams] to come as a regular delegate and I do not think that anybody will raise any objection to her appointment. Could she have heard the discussion the other day she would have been assured that she has the confidence and respect of every member of the Arrangements Committee. [page 2]</p>
<p>There is, however, a phase of the question which I have wanted to bring to Miss [Addams'] attention and I will do it now through his letter.</p>
<p>The League for Peace & Freedom seems now to be the particular target of those who are busy connecting all peace activities with red propaganda. I have supposed this League would defend itself and yet I have, from time to time wished for [<span style="text-decoration: line-through;">illegible</span>] ↑[the opportunity]↓ to bring certain things to Miss [Addams'] attention. I am sure the whole thing must make her very downcast. I believe [this] attack ought to be met in vigorous fashion. In a pamphlet, which I cannot at this time, allow to leave my hands, for I am investigating certain other parts of it, there occurs the statement that there are over 200 organizations in this country who are seeking to undermine our institutions. It says further that there are 611 papers which are also here to "destroy liberty." In this pamphlet an attack is made upon College organizations and it is that particular thing that I [am] investigating. I enclose herewith a copy taken from this pamphlet with the heading -- "Women’s Organizations."</p>
<p>I wish Miss [Addams] would let me know through you or otherwise how many of these planks were really adopted either by the International Convention or by the National Auxiliary or any State Auxiliary. If I am correctly informed the oath alleged to have been taken was presented <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">by the same body,</span> but never adopted. I don’t believe ↑they↓ did vote for the gradual abolition of private property rights and there may be other things included in this list that are also imaginary or malicious charges.</p>
<p>At present the propaganda of one or two groups is such that any association with the League for Peace & Freedom means an attack upon the group so connected.</p>
<p>We talked it over, however, and we were all agreed that Miss [Addams] should be protected from these attacks in every way possible. I, therefore, hope she will be in Washington, so that if any charge is made against the Conference, on account of her presence, it will give us the opportunity to rise in her defense. I am,</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Yours very truly,</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Carrie Chapman Catt [signed]</p>

The transcription of the document
<div style="text-align: right;">Arequipa, Peru</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">January 12 1925</div>
<p>Dear Miss Addams<br /><br />We are stopping here for five days at an altitude of 10000 feet to become acclimated before going on to Cuzco. It shows the courtesy of the Peruvian government, whose guests we are for our trip to Oroya proved a severe strain for both the men & women delegates, some of whom had to be sent back to the coast by special train before even reaching the top. Miss Baber has been ill with grip almost since the first and Mrs. Rohde suffered badly from [Suerococha?] the mountain sickness so we four are particularly glad to catch our breath here and I think it is safe to report that both are gaining in vigor each day.<br /><br />We are certainly in the midst of a most interesting development of a country. I am hoping the rest of our journey will prove as illuminating. The Congress as a Congress was an awful [bore] and the Conferencia Feminista meant little to us as far as the papers were concerned as the proceedings were entirely in Spanish. It gave a splendid opportunity though to watch from the outside, the first [page 2] efforts of the feminine movement out from a most difficult background of tradition. Women who had never appeared in public before spoke with grace and sincerity and the meetings for the full two weeks were well attended 100 to 150 on an average each morning. <br /><br />Between the absolute political dictatorship of this country and the limitations set by the Pan American Union it was a difficult task to go very far – and as I see it the country is not yet ready to strike out for political equality or some of the questions which we have already arrived at. <br /><br />Mrs. Swiggett was very cautious about papers from the United States -- but at last Miss Baber read hers -- on Pan American Peace and I was asked to speak on the work of women. Our delegation of 15 did not get much from the Congress or contribute much either because of the language barrier but it was a great adventure for the Latin American women and worth while. [page 3]<br /><br />I met by chance a woman who was interested in peace with the result that we had a little meeting on Christmas day -- about ten present. They asked me to write certain things to you. Dora Mayer -- was the interpreter, an intelligent radical whom the Pan American Women's Executive Committee tried to avoid. A gentle retiring, persistent woman around whom apparently hearing some gossip — She has been a member of the W. I. L. since 1915. Miss Acosta Cárdenas, the only woman lawyer in Lima presided. There was considerable conversation about the difficulty of free speech as a member had recently been arrested & placed in prison for some political expression in opposition to the government. -- They had received a letter from Miss Courtney in regard to the action of the British Section about the resolution passed in Washington & voted that (the 10 present the most radical wing of the W. I. L.) they were in sympathy with the British Section & felt that a more moderate statement was necessary at the time for Peru. They regretted that the International Board gave so little attention to South America & especially hoped that more about S. A. would appear in the Bulletin.<br /><br />They voted to work this winter for closer [illegible] with the [page 4] women of Columbia where [illegible words] being developed over the boundary line They felt nothing could be done between Chile & Peru at present, at least until the decision had been given out from the United States about Tacna & Arica. Miss Mayer came to my house before the meeting & asked that her suggestions be considered ↑I am enclosing those↓. Interchange of students and text books seemed possible to consider. <br /><br />A second meeting was planned which Miss Baber attended as I was out of the city. <br /><br />I feel that the Peruvian problem is far too complicated to draw conclusions in three weeks without the language and I should hesitate to advise any form of propaganda work from outside. A sympathetic study of the country I believe is the only wise step. Of course I cannot say anything of the other Republics. <br /><br />Peru has been so shut off from the world that she has a national provincial egoism. Perhaps the wisest plan would be later a group of four women to tour the countries including one from Europe -- like Marcelle Capy -- who is Latin enough to catch the splendid spirit here, one ↑each↓ from the U. S. -- Mexico & S. A. -- why not Miss Landazuri & Bertha Lutz, and Miss Baber.</p>
<p>[written on left margin and top on page 1]: I hope that you are quite well again, affectionately Amy Wood. I am interested in getting a scholarship for a Peruvian Teacher in the U.S. for 1 year & have stated places by which women in Lima will pay her passage both ways. If N A can cover cost which in the states she speaks both English & Spanish it would be most worth while.</p>

<br />Miss Jane Addams <br />Hull House<br />Chicago<br />Ill. U.S.A.<br /><br />Dear Madam, <br /><br />I am desired to inform you that our President, Madame d' Arcis, has been invited by the International Council of Women, of which, as you know, the Marchioness of Aberdeen and Temair is President, to speak in Washington at their Quin-quennial Congress, which is to take place from the 4th to the 14th of May at the new Washington Auditorium. She is to speak at the evening meeting on the 12th of May and her subject is >Women's Influence towards World Peace.> <br /><br />Madam d' Arcis hopes to take advantage of her trip to America to make other speeches and to tell the women there something of the work that is being done in Europe, for she feels she can truthfully say that our ideas for real Peace, the kind that is compatible with patriotism, are marching on. Of course, we have had over here, as in America, many hectic and radical movements, but, as you know, the International Council of Women is perhaps the oldest and most conservative of all women's organi-sations and the sane and spiritual ideal of the World Union seems to appeal to them tremendously. Madame d' Arcis believes there are many people in America who will respond with all their hearts to work for the prevention of the causes of war which cannot be accu-sed of having anything to do with Bolshevism. <br /><br />Last May, as President of the World Union of Women, she was invited to speak at the Conference on the Prevention of the Causes of War, convoked by Lady Aberdeen, in London. This very important Conference was attended by eminent specialists from all parts of the world. <br /><br />I am sending you under separate cover a reprint of the two speeches made by Madame d' Arcis on that occasion and also a resumé of the work of the World Union, a copy of our new Manifest and a reprint of a biographical note used in the Press.<br /><br />Madame d' Arcis hopes that if you are likely to be at the Congress in Washington she will have the pleasure of seeing you even if only for a minute or two. [page 2]<br /><br />In case you wish to get into touch with her, her mail-ing address is <br />

<div style="text-align: center;">2513 TWELFTH STREET, N. W.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">WASHINGTON, D. C.</div>
<p style="text-align: right;">May 10, 1925.</p>
<p>Dear Miss Addams:</p>
<p>I was delighted to get your letter appointing Mrs. Spencer to represent the W.I.L. internationally at the Quinquennial I.C.W., with myself as Alternate. It seemed a most dignified position for the international W.I.L. to take.</p>
<p>I went immediately to the Council meeting. Mrs. Moore gave your credential letter to Fru Anna Backer and I was entered up. Mrs. Moore explained to me that we were entitled to three Fraternal Delegates so I would not be entered as an Alternate but as an equal Fraternal Delegate, and that is the way I appear on the roll. Mrs. Spencer arrived Friday, and both our names were called that day on the second and last calling of the roll. We have each been given seats but we are urged to sit on the platforms, as [<span style="text-decoration: line-through;">illegible]</span> that is regarded as the place for Fraternal Delegates; and as there is room there, and we can hear better there we sit there usually. Fru Backer’s letter to Geneva only invited <u>one</u> representative, but no objection has been made, and I think everything is all right.</p>
<p>Mrs. Moore has been extremely cordial, and so has Mrs. Harris. I think they are glad that things have turned out this way. I had met Mrs. Moore at a [Pan-American] luncheon last week, and she had told me that she hoped I would come to some of the ↑meetings↓ and she would give me a ticket. I told her that I appreciated her thought, but I had thought the matter over and had decided that though I could go in by paying the proper fee, as I was a member of the League of Women Voters, I had better not do so. She came to me again after the luncheon to say that she really hoped I would come to some of the meetings; so it was agreed that if I should want to do so I should send her my card. Now I think, as I said before, that she is really gratified at our being there as Fraternal Delegates.</p>
<p>I have ordered a set of Christian Science Monitors containing the proceedings of the Quinquennial sent to you. Immediately after the last meeting I will return to you the invitation sent to Geneva, and will send you various programs and pieces of printed matter.</p>
<p>I have asked Fru Backer if Miss Hambro is here. She said that Miss Hambro had [page 2] hoped and expected to come, but at the last was prevented.</p>
<p>Mrs. Mead is staying with me. She is as determined and active in uses as ever, but seems frail. She left Mr. Mead in New York, and he has been having a beautiful time going around to see old friends and hunting up things. His recovery is most wonderful and a joyous thing to contemplate.</p>
<p>Mrs. Spencer is going abroad to international meetings in June.</p>
<p>As I am writing I will mention that I wrote a little personal message of thanks to each of the women who sent a [message] in that little book of Christmas Messages which we each received this winter, and an especial letter to Mme. Karaveloff, who mentioned the bereavement she suffered during her absence in America. Now I am receiving back very nice messages in return, which I did not expect, but I enjoy very much.</p>

The transcription of the document
<p style="text-align: center;">Confidential </p>
<p>My dear Miss Addams </p>
<p>I have given a week and more to the Biennial Meeting of the National Council of Women of the U.S.A. at Detroit. I have used my influence backed by Dr [Thelburg] and Prof Whitney of Vassar and others devoted to what the Council was formed to do, to take the Council out of the hands that have so long ruled and to frustrate the band of super-"patriotic" societies that had determined to place in the President's office a Woman's Relief Crops women who sees red every time peace is mentioned and was the moving element in the expulsion of the W.I.L.P.F.</p>
<p>I wrote Mrs. Moore after the occurrence without League that "the action taken showed that the soul of the council was dead and that it could not have even an honorable funeral."</p>
<p>I then thought I should never attend another meeting after the Quinquennial at Washington when Mrs Post and I sat as Fraternal delegates to the International body of Council ↑a delegate from W.I.L.P.F.↓. </p>
<p>During my trip abroad, this past summer, however I saw what confusion would result in European circles of organized womanhood if our Council should become just a union of the ten or more patriotic societies which were trying to take possession of it; and the election of a chosen candidate for Pres. would be a signal for the League of Women Voters, the Federation of Women's Clubs the University Women and many other to retire from the Council in this country. </p>
<p>I also saw in Geneva a confusion of thought in high places as to what the women of America thought and would support in the Commissions of the League of nations connected with the interests of women and children, and which confusion could only be resolved by some united action which the Council alone if properly equipped and officered, could render. </p>
<p>I therefore decided to send out the inclosed message, I cannot take time to tell you the complications far more than I had imagined in advance, which met me at Detriot. I had hesitated to go by Dr Telberg and I alone of all the women who met at the formation of the International and National Councils in 1888 survive in action influence in the Council and PRof Whitney assured me nothing vital could be done without my presence. I went out therefore and for the first and I hope that last time in my life acted as "campaign manager" in a struggle for office. </p>
<p>Dr. Katherine Bement Davis was our first choice for President altho personally (had she had financial ability to undertake it) I wanted Mrs Glen Laven Swiggit of Washington from her Pan-American service, as my first choice. </p>
<p>At the Last minute we received the absolute refusal of Dr. Davis in whom all the progressives ahs such confidence to allow her name to be used in nomination. </p>
<p>Dr. Valeria Parker was on the spot and my influence with the American Social Hygiene Assn of which she is a salaried staff officer seemed to make it safe to use her name for President and she made a fine place in the hearts and minds of the delegate at once. </p>
<p>Knowing her entire loyalty to the highest patriotism and the broadest internationalism and the fact that she has already made for herself a place in Europe with such leaders as Lady Astor and the officers of the International [page 2] Council of women and is persona garta with the Federation clubs and other big organizations now in the National Council, I felt it right to make her President and we did it. </p>
<p>In time he will institute proceedings (I whisper in your ear alone) to invite the U.S.A Section of the W.I.L.P.F back into the fold. She is a real peace woman.</p>
<p>The "patriotic" women who are a mediocre set of groups in the Council got scared by the "spider-web" business and the Lund woman, and so sent full delegations of their several societies to the Detriot meeting while the high societies had small delegations not recognizing any special need and having spent themselves on the Washington Quinquennial of the International.</p>
<p>More-over there was a timid concurrence by Mrs. Moore in the attitude of these patriotic without any conference with the big societies in the Council she had a program filled up with military speakers defending "Defence Day" and had us all sing the Star Spangeled banner and break down on the high note, and all "salute the flag" and almost stand on our heads to show we were not traitors to the government and the Army and Navy. The Lund woman appeared on the Detroit papers at full length with a full list of proposed offers but as she did not represent any society in membership she could be ignored by the Council, She had Mrs Finley [Shepard] (Helen Gould) in her proposed list an all N.Y. people know that Mrs [Shepard] was so afraid the Germans were going to invade the U.S. that she looked under the bed every night expecting to be attacked by a German with his bludgeon. </p>
<p>Well, the Lund creature did not get in to an official ring but did attall meetings open in any way to the public, and did have the newspaper, from lack of any decent publicity from the side of the Council. </p>
<p>The subtle damage done by the whole "spider-web" business has been in making Mrs Moore and the Patriotic Societies in the Council (not all of them but some) feel that they must have all the military people they can get to speak at the Biennials and fall over backward to show they are "loyal".</p>
<p>There is a real movement to revive and to purify the Counciil and make it again what it should be a leader in the International movements of women, </p>
<p>I have no business to undertake another hard job. i want to write to and once in a while take a long breath of leisure. </p>
<p>But I found in Europe such a condition of confusion and bewilderment about American women and their attitude to some great international movements knowing as I do from 37 years of close contact with the Council, that only through our official relation to that body abroad do we, or can we now have official standing in such man y-sided international movements as now head up at Geneva, I felt I must once more take a hand int he revival. </p>
<p>You will see by the separate sheet what resolutions were finally passed. You will see eby the separate sheet what resolutions were finally passed. </p>
<p>Dr. Parker and I have worked on a scheme for really able Committee Chairmen and we hope to get it over. </p>
<p>No body expected me to be on hand at Detroit with a real plan. </p>
<p>I purposely tried to scare them with a threat of the a funeral, and then had my scheme ready for a resurrection of the old Council spirit and work.</p>
<p>Now I must give up some paid lectures and much other work and help all the new Board through this crisis.</p>
<p>My sitting silent through the passage of the Resoltuion favoring Defense Day and saying nothing against any proposition of the military guests was not understood, especially by the delegate from the League of Women Voters. But I tried to shoe her that if I had said a ward to precipitate a struggle along those lines I could not have led toward the revival of the real "Council idea" and its embodiment in new hands of leadership. </p>
<p>You can trust Valeria Parker. She is true blue. I am able to meet and help at every point. Dr Katherine Davis will help valiantly and I think with paid service of clerk etc in time. </p>
<p>We may not make it as we hope. It is a fighting chance only. But I don't want to lose the one way of getting in real office line with the women of Europe in the many ways of international service now open and we should do so, in so far as a united front of varied interests is concerned, if we allowed the Council to die or be submerged by a narrow nationalism. </p>
<p>I write this to show you why for the next two years I shall work for the international spirit and international method in and through the Council of the U.S.A and in no other way ↑to any greaet extent↓. </p>
<p>I am convinced that if we can purify and strengthen this old organization which is nearer the League of Nations Commissions through its European Council than any other organization fo women in our country can be, it will be a better work for world peace than can be done in any other way. </p>
<p>I was prepared to see the Council die. But I would not stand by and see it poisoned to death by war hysteric and outside malevolence. </p>
<p>So the prayers of the congregation are requested for about to enter a perilous pathway to help the younger women save the day for the real unity of moral forced among women. </p>
<p>I hope to see you dear friend, when you're in N.Y. I have to go to my invalid sister in R.I. and shall not be back until Ammistic Day and may not be at the meeting to hear you. But I must see if possible when you come and shall hope to have you take luncheon with me at the Woman's City Club some day. </p>

The transcription of the document
<p style="text-align: center;">A MESSAGE TO COUNCIL MEMBERS FROM THE VICE PRESIDENT ANNA GARLIN SPENCER.</p>
<p>Dear Friend:</p>
<p>I am impelled to say that I have come back from Europe, after special opportunities of observing the work of women with the firm conviction that the International Council of Women is the most important body of women in the Old World, and owes that high position to the faithful and efficient development of the "Council idea" born in the U. S. A. in 1888.</p>
<p>That "Council Idea" is the massing in one loose but original organization of the official representatives of all national bodies of women in each nation and the union of those National Councils is one International body. This ties the special interests of each association of women in the fields of reform, philanthropy, protection, and care of children, education, and professional work, to each other form of interest and work, and all to a common demand for broad and frank discussion as to what they say attempt together in concerted action.</p>
<p>It is well known that the Council of Women of the U.S.A. lacks that commanding influence in the organization that constitutes its membership which distinguishes the Council of other rations. This is in part due to the great strength and influence of several of the societies in our membership, the leaders of which feel they must reserve working power for their own special organization.</p>
<p>The long and devoted service of Mrs. Moore, our unselfish and beloved President, now draw to an end. Prolonged beyond custom by the need for her heroic help in the delayed hospitality to the International Council, the Fufilment of that great effort leaves the National Council in this country to face its own crisis concerns as it could not do before.</p>
<p>This means that we must face first of all the question, shall we live or die?</p>
<p>Shall we set a date for a glorious funeral in which we shall "strew violets" over the graves of deal leaders (and of dead hopes) and bravely pass over our purpose and our achievement to one of the strong daughters of the Council? Or shall we develop at this Detroit meeting a method by which we shall keep the United States the world of organized womanhood, - as was the ideal of its founders?</p>
<p>One reason why it would seem best to preserve the Council and to reorganize and make a stronger its life and work is that only through the Council of the United States, as at present organized by its membership of National Societies, can the women of America keep step with the women of other lands. The Constitution of the International Council, rigidly obeyed by the Councils of the Old World, determines that only through the required form of National Association of National Societies shall we have representation in its deliberations and activities. If we gave up our Council we should give up all hope of American women to get a place in the many-sided organised work of the women of the World. We should, also by the same token lose the chance to stand with the women of other countries at the door-way of the great Commissions of the League of Nations which deal with the protection of women and children, with the help toward the abolition of traffic in dangerous drugs, and with the many-sided educational propaganda and work of those Commissions; for it is in and through the International Council of Women and its child, the "Save the Children" movement, and its twin effort in the educational fields, that we get out best chance to help at Geneva. [page 2]</p>
<p>It seems therefore that we should miss a great new oppurtnutity, far greater than opened to women in 1888, if we allowed the Council to die; but it would be better for it to end its life with heroic if patheritc confession of incapacity to do what its Founders hoped it might, than to "peter cut," to "live longer at a poor dying rate" or to have the name for a great use of millions of organized women in our country when the Council, as it is now functioning, makes so little impression upon its member-societies.</p>
<p>We meet therefore for the most important of decisions, let us face it with humility and courage.</p>
<p>I was honored by being called as a younger women to confer with Susan b. Anthony and France Willard in the making of the plans for the initial meeting. I worked with their lieutenants May Wright Sewall, Anna Howard Shaw and Rachel Foster Avery, in the early days of the Council movement. I have been close to the Executive Board, either as an officer or as a trusted helped ever since the beginning, and should it seem best to end the Council, as now too ambitious a scheme for our great country, or because other agencies take the place of what it was organized to do, no one could feel it more as a loss of old hopes than I. But I have seen more than one organization live to loo long and final to see the need for its translation into other forms of service.</p>
<p>If we can't be what we should be, <span style="text-decoration: underline;">the leading agency for the United States and the world for the consolidation and effective use of women in social service.</span> then let us be willing to give place to our daughters; even if we thereby lose all chance to help them connect fully with the work of women in other nations. </p>
<p>This leads to the statement of a few essentials which have been clearly in my mind and in that of other old friends of the Council for at least five years and only waited for public statement for the crisis we are now facing. </p>
<p>1st. It has been apparent for a long time that no national organization can do first-class work without an accessible and well-known headquarters and an adequate paid staff of workers. It is as clear to many of us that the National Council of Women in our country can have such staff and such headquarters in but one of two places if its work is to be worthy of its aims and of its claim in the "Council idea". Those two places are Washington, D.C., and New York City. The first preferred provided the President can live and work there; the second a good choice because near Washington and the acknowledge central point of approach from </p>
<p>Europe and of influence throughout the country. Both these places, and these alone, can furnish the background for the constant intercourse with the Headquarters staff of the member-societies of most importance, and alone furnish the impressive setting required. </p>
<p>2nd. This narrows our choice of a leader in the President's office to those who live or can live in either of these places, and also limits our choice to someone with private means to make an efficient center of work, or else who Is endowed, or can get financial aid of large amount. </p>
<p>The difficulties, therefore, are so great that it seems likely this Detriot meeting may not be able to come to wise and adequate conclusions. I, therefore, urge that a <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Committee on Organization</span> be appointed to look over the whole field, interview at annual and special meetings that representatives of the most important of the member-societies, get light upon all the problems involved, and <span style="text-decoration: underline;">report at a special meeting in 1926.</span>[page 3]</p>
<p>For this interim year, any loyal and competent member of the Council might serve as President if it were clearly understood that she was only a stop-gap until the real organization was entered upon, but in such a case the occupancy would be as "<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Acting President" for the year, </span> and the real power would be lodged in the Committee on Organization. Nothing should be done, I am convinced, at this Detroit meeting to prevent radical changes if such should be felt wise at the meeting of 1926. The coming Exposition and Memorial meeting at Philadephia be there; not as divided groups in "sectarian" bodies, but as one great band of workers. I can see a great chance for the Council, revivified and made more effective, to add a "Woman's Congress" of great importance at Philadelphia Sesquicentennial.</p>
<p>But not as a "show", or a publicity stunt, or a <span style="text-decoration: underline;">claim</span>, but at a reality!</p>
<p>:close with offering the following resolutions:_</p>
<p>Whereas, Mrs. Moore and her associates on the Board of Officers, in particular the first Vice President, Mrs. Harris, and the Corresponding Seretary and Treasurer, have long served the Council with unselfish devotion and constant labor under great difficulties of distance of residence from each other and in fate of poverty of resources and lack of competent assistance, this Biennial Meeting of the Council of Women of the United States extends to them the heartiest thanks and most profound appreciation. No other body of women of equal importance has had for so long a time the able and heroic volunteer service of such a group of officers. </p>
<p>Whereas, the entertainment of the International Council, delayed on account of the Great War, and carried through under the Presidency of Mrs. Moore with such courage and success, marks a natural period for the retirement of the present Board of Officers, and whereas circumstances connected with the phenomenal growth of some of the member societies of the Council and other social conditions make the future policy of the Council a matter for serious consideration at this time:_</p>
<p>1st. Therefore, RESOLVED, that a Committee on Organization be appointed at this meeting to study how the Council idea may best function under present conditions in the United States; ti interview the leader of the various organizations listed in membership; and to draw IP recommendations for presentation at a special meeting of the Council to be called in 1926. </p>
<p>2nd. RESOLVED, that this Committee on Organization be composed of one member, preferably the President or Secretary, from each of the following societies: The W.C.T.U, the League of Women Voters (formerly the National American Woman Suffrage Assn.), the Women's Relief Corps, the National Council of Jewish Women, the National Association of Colored Women, and the Ladies of the Maccabees, as representing the associations which were members of the Council in 1900:_ and a member each from the Federation of Women's Clubs, the Y.W.C.A., the National Association of University Women, and the National Congress of Mothers and Parent-Teacher Associations, as representing later additions to the Council membership;- with an additional Member-at-Large to be named from the floor, who shall act as Chairman of the Committee. </p>
<p>3rd. Resolved, that this Committee on Organization shall have the power to select one or more experts in research, to draw up questionnaires for approval of the Committee, from which may be drawn answers which will show the value or lack of value to the member societies of the Council as it is, or as it might be, to prepare statistical statements and draw up recommendations which, if approved by the Organization Committee, may be presented at the special meeting of 1926.[page 4]</p>
<p>4th. RESOLVED, that all historical data, national reports, and records of international relationships be placed at the service of the Committee of Organization and that in particular former plans for organization which failed of realization through lack of paid staff and headquarters, be placed in their hands for study.</p>
<p>5th. Resolved, that all choice of general officers at this Detriot Biennial be provisional and to hold for one year only, or until the plans for the Organization Committee are received and acted upon. </p>
<div style="text-align: center;">Sincerely yours, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">Anna Garlin Spencer. </div>

<p>An die Fruende Minna Cauers,</p>
<p>Wie in der Einleitung zu dem Tagfebuchnerk "Minna Cauer, Leben und Werk" bereits mitgeteilt war, beabsichtigen wir die Herausgabe eines Bandes "Minna Cauer in Eriefen an ihre Freunde," Wir glauben, dass damit eine wertvolle Ergaenzung zu der ersten grundlegenden Biographic geschaffen werden kann, weil in diesem Briefwerk, den sie von ihne enpfind und den sie auf andere machte, staerker hervortreten wird, als in dem ersten Werk zu geben moeglich war. Wir hoffen, dassalle Freunde Minna CAuers uns bei diesem Werke unterstuetzen werden, indem sie uns geeignete Briefe zue Verfuegung stellen.</p>
<p>Es knmt fuer die Vereffenteliehung ven allem darauf an, Briefe ze erhalten, die wichtige Vorkemnisse des oeffenrlichen Lebens berhandeln, oder die ein besonders helles Streiflicht aur Minna Cauers Wesen Wefen oder das butreffende Freund- schaftsverhaaltnis besonders klar beleuchter. Wir waeren Ihnen danktar, wann Sie die Briefe, die Sie von Minna Cauerbesiten, auf dieses Gesichtenspunkte hin pruefen wuerden, und uns die zur Veroeffentlehang geeingneten Briefe leihweise zar Verfuegung stellten. Etwaige Strechungen,m di Sie wuenschen, werien natuerlich baeuscksichtight. Fuer mosglichst schnelle Ruecksendung wird Sorge getragen werden.</p>
Die Hauptherausgeberin des Briefwerkes wird die unterzeichnete Gressnichte Minna Cavers sein; dech hat Minna Cauers langjaehrige, treus Mitarbeiterin, Else Laeders, Berlin W, 30, Neue Winterfeldstrasse 17, ihr sugesaft, ihr wit Rat und Tat zur Seite zu stehen. Wir bitten daher, etwaige Zuschriften, Anfragen oder die Einsendung von Briefen Minna Cauers entweder an Else Leuders oder die Unterzeuchnete zu richten.

<p style="text-align: right;">Brussels, ↑the 16th of January↓ 1926.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">153, rue Jourdan,</p>
<p><br />To the Friends of Minna Cauers,</p>
<p>Further to the announcement in the introduction to the diary, “Minna Cauer, Life and Work”, we are planning an edition of “Minna Cauer in Letters to her Friends”. We believe that this would be a valuable addition to the first significant biography, as the letters document more effectively than the original work, Minna Cauer’s relationships, what she thought of them, what she felt towards them, and the impression, she made on others. We hope that all friends of Minna Cauers will support us in this endeavour by providing us with relevant letters.</p>
<p>It is crucial for this publication, to receive letters, which deal with events of public life, or shed light on Minna Cauer’s character, or illuminate relevant friendships. We would be grateful if you could check the letters that you have of Minna Cauer in this respect and loan us the letters for publication. We will of course consider if you wish for possible emendations. We will ensure possible return.</p>
<p>The main editor of this edition is the signatory, the great-niece Minna Cauers, though Minna Cauer’s long-serving and faithful assistant, Else Lüders, Berlin W, 30, Neue Winterfeldstrasse 17, has promised her to lend a hand with words and deeds. We therefore ask, to address likely communications, queries or the sending of Minna Cauer’s letters to Else Lüders or the signatory.</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">Yours sincerely</p>
<p style="text-align: right;">Lilly Somerhausen[signed]</p>
