Miss Abbott described the interna- tional conference held ladt year in Geneva, when this evil was discuss- ed by representatives of a score or more of nations, She was in attend- ance as the official representative of the United States. In the opinion of the delegates, she said_the countries interested should give inore attention to this grave social problem and should lend every assistance in the fight against it. ~She said the con- ference resulted in a well organized international investigation, which is expected to bring out facts that will aid greatly in the general movement.
