McCan Will Tell of After-War Problems ~ of America WAS AT BATTLEFRONT . ;Comes From France with Fresh Impressions of Needs of Disabled Men »Mrs. Martha M. McCann, a woman worker, of. national note, now repre- senting the women’s committee of the national council of defense, arrived in Bismarck today. and Monday evening, at the Grand theatre, she will speak \under the auspices of the nationat council of defense on “\What America Must Do! to Prepare for Taking, Care ot Disabled Soldiers.”\. Mrs, ‘McCan formerly was Georgé Yenawin, who was a promt nent Milwaukee newspaper man. She has traveled extensively, and is wide- ly ‘known as an author and lecturer, and her address here is expected to at- tract a large audience. \ Mrs. McCan ts the first missionary sent out by the committee on public information of the national ‘council of defense to discuss problems which this country must face after the war. She went to Fpance for the purpose of working among the blind and di» abled soldiers over there. She was quick to realize that the preparation of the American public for problems which are to come offered her a great- er field, and shg returned home and offered her services to the national jcouncil of defense. Actual observa- \tion is the basis of the lecture which she is eiving on this subject, and it is one which every American is urged Sas | to hear. ‘Mrs. McCan and Mrs. Thomas Allen ox, wife of the secretary of the North Dakota Council of Defense, long have been close friends and associated in women’s club work in Los Angeles, and Mrs. Box will accompany the na- tional council of defense speaker on “Enters Hospital.
