Challenge to Women "The fact that Illinois stands twen- ty-fourth in the rank of its public school system, is a challenge to women. Its 12,000 school aistricts with the correspondingly large num- ber of one-room schols shows how far behind we are in the march of school organization. "The League of Women Voters stands ready to work with all organ- izations of similar purposes, whether of men or women or both. 1it urges its members to enroll in the political parties which their judgment ap- proves and in every other way to ac- tively participate as citizens in the management of our government." Following Miss Rockwood's talk a vote was taken, which proved to be unanimous, in favor of starting a local branch League of Women Voters, which sheould function through the State committee, which in turn funec- tions through the National committee.
