THE *North 600 MAN WHO OWNS ON!‘ URGES WOMEN JOIN - POLITICAL PARTIES Mrs. Medill MoCormick- Addresses " Y. W. C. A. Business ‘Women. Woman voters should join one of the existing political parties if they ever hope to accomplish their aims, Mrs. Medill McCormick, wife of the senator from Illinols and member of the republican national committes, told members of the business women's department of the Y. W. C. A. at their luncheon yesterday. Mrs. McCormick, who was guest of honor, outlined .the constructive leg- islation, both national and state, for which the republican y is re- sponaible, emphasizing particularly measures enacted for the benefit of Women and children. “Unless there is definite party afli- 1|ation the woman vote can never be effective, said Mrs. McCormick. “Nothing is to be gained by non-par- tisan organizations hammering away at the existing partles. Wérk from the inside out. Join a party and make d for your views.” “Our opportunity is at hand now," continued Mrs. McCormick. “We have been glven suffrage. and the time has come to put into effect our own ldeals} and stop talking about it. It is im- material which party the women of the country join. The important thing is that they should join an es- tablished party and have its effective organization behind the laws they wish to have enacted.” Yesterday's luncheon was the sec- ond in a series recently inaugurated by the business women's department of the Y. W. C. A, at which women of importance in onal political life are speakers. Mrs. Rachel Blair, member of the democratic committee, was last week's speaker. ‘WASHINGTON, D.
