12 * VONAN WAR ADE PLANNOT DROPPED Mrs. Sippel Declares Action on Project Has Been “Merely Postponed.” Br the Associated Press. Completion of the plan for appoint- ment of women as civilian military aldes in the eight Army corps areas has been “merely postponed” and not abandoned. That is the answer of Mrs. John F. Sippel, chairman of the committee or-| ganized by former Secretary Davis to| assist in the undertaking, to comment which has followed the action of his successor, Secretary Good, in calling off a meeting scheduled last Monday. Mrs. Sippel, president of the General Federation of Women's Clubs, asserts that Secretary Good has written to members of the committee expressing his indorsement of the project, but postponing the meeting, she says, “un- til he has more time.” ‘The project was announced by Secre- tary Davis in February, shortly before his relinquishment of the War Depart- ment portfolio. Explaining its purpose, he said the woman aides would occupy positions corresponding to those of the masculine civilian aides now serving the | corps area commanders and would be expected to co-operate in the enroll- ment for citizens’ military training camps and other peace-time activities of the Army. To get the project under way he called together the presidents, or their resentatives, of 13 national i- zations. including ippel, Miss Belle Sherwin of the League of Women Voters, Mrs. Alfred Brosseau of the Daughters of the Amer- ican Revolution, Miss Lena Hitcheock of the Women's Overseas League, Mrs. 8. C. Schope of the Daughters of 1812, Mre. Boyce Ficklen of the American Legion Auxiliary, Miss Lena Madesin Phillip of the Business and Professional ‘Women's Clubs, Mrs. Bennie Busch of the League of American Pen Women, Mrs. Thomas Spence of the American ‘War Mothers, Mrs. C. Van Rensselaer of the National League for Women's Serv- bel . secretary the American_Association of University Women and Miss Maude Wetmore of the National Civic Federation. ‘Widespread discussion followed this meeting. with emphasis placed on state- ments that some of these ‘movement !or“!.n- ‘means of bringing about world peace. =n some quarters the project was eriti- cized as a move which would bring peace organizations into the fold of the army. “As a matter of fact,” Mrs. 8} 8278, “there was no intention that ‘women ted their - or that tions were to be banded together in the project. * Cleanliness: Quality The Best of Meats Poultry Game Fruits Vegetables Fish (In Park Road Wing) Y Entrances From Fourteenth Street and From Park Road x| CAPT.
