April 21, 1928 WINNETKA TALEK 27 WOMEN VOTERS HOLD NATIONAL CONVENTION Five-Day Sessions of National Organization Begin Sunday, April 22 Sunday, April 22, delegates from forty-five state leagues of women vot- ers will be wending their way to Chi- cago for the eighth convention of the National League of Women Voters. Politically-minded women, who are concerned with the political education of women, the establishment of effi- cient government, measures for peace- ful settlement of international diffi- culties, and with the several phases of public welfare in government, will gather in the Palmer House on April 23 for a week of absorbing discus- sions. Between 500 and 600 delegates are expected. In selecting Chicago for its eighth national convention, the league will return to the scene of its first con- vention. Eight years ago the league had its first congress in conjunction with the fifty-first and final convention of the National American Women Suffrage association. The challenge of 1920 will be reflected in all program discussions of the 1928 convention. Committee Conferences The first two days of the convention week will be limited to committee con- ferences, which are often times desig- nated as "the little convention." Ex- perts on many subjects will participate, including Professor John H. Latane of Johns Hopkins university, Raymond Leslie Buell of the Foreign Policy as- sociation, Dr. E. W. Morehouse of Northwestern university, Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, assistant U. S. Attorney General, Miss Jane Addams, Miss Mary Winslow of the U. S. Women's Bureau; Samuel Ferguson, president of the Hartford Electric Light company; John Bauer of New York City, director of the American Public Utilities bureau; Raymond A. Beardslee, of Springfield, Vt.; R. S. Cooley, director of the Milwaukee Vo- cational school; Prof. Leonard D. White of the University of Chicago, Prof. A. R. Hatton, of Northwestern university, and Walter J. Millard, sec- retary of the Proportional Represen- tation league. Hear Prominent Leaders Three evening meetings appear par- ticularly interesting. The Tuesday eve- ning of the convention week will be devoted to an address by Miss Sher- win, national president. The only mass meeting of the week is scheduled for Wednesday night, with Count Carlo Sforza, former Italian Minister of State, Arthur Bullard, a writer of note, Edward C. Lindeman of New York City, and Miss Jane Addams as speak- ers. One important feature of the Thursday night session is the presen- tation of "A Day at the Polls" under the direction of Judge Edmund K. Jarecki of Chicago. Plan "Political Activity" A special committee is now engaged in mapping out a suggested "political activity" calendar for the League in this presidential year.
