In Rock- ford, Ill., the women have built a clubhouse with a large enough auditorium to house theatrical performances, which are produced under their direction. One Florida club under- took and accomplished mosquito eradications in its district; another owns and has the ad- ministration of a 4,000-acre State park, A club in Elgin, I, founded, owns and main- tains a modern hospital. Others have estab- lished scholarship funds, baby clinics, milk sta- tions for un@ernourished children and have paid for operations for diseased, and crippled children. “These things I have cited above are almost necessities, the fundamentals which every city, town or community should have. But no less important are the facilities which enter into the cultural and recreational life of a com- munity. Most of our clubs were formed in the beginning as social and cultural groups. The fleld of music and fine arts and literature should be zealously and eontinuously cultivated to produce their richest yield for home con- sumption, This is particularly true in the smaller towns where the cultural advantages offered by lectures, concerts and the theater in the larger cities are not available. “It is through their cultural work that I feel women’s clubs of the immediate future are going to be able to do some of their most important work, particularly in the field of in- ternational relations. “I believe very sincerely that if we home women of all the countries of the world can .

Elder: Abbr. have conferences along domestic and cultural lines it will lead us to greater under- standing of each other and will make a real and definite cgntribucion to the upbuilding of international fellowship. If we can meet and discuss our home problems, the education of our children, their delinquencies and their training, if we can discuss the music, the art and litera- ture of our various countries, it will do much to draw us together. A more comprehensive understanding of the things that are dear to the heart of each nation will do much to help to make war impossible. [ FEEL that had Americans known the underlying myths and legends of other countries, their manners and their customs, their feelings about certain things, America would have blundered less often in many small things in the past. For instance, we would not have built a railroad beneath a cemetery in a certain foreign country if we had known their feeling about the sacredness of the last sleeping-place of their dead. Nor would we have permitted certain pieces of machinery shipped to one community in a foreign country to have been painted in a color considered sacred in that community. When nations have a better understanding of another’s real home life they will not so often unintentionally stir up bad feeling. “And so the General Federation is beginning to put a great deal of emphasis on its inter- national relations plans and program. We have discussed the things that we want to do with the State Department, which has given us valuable help and suggestions, for we do not want to stumble on to ground which is con« troversial. “I have had some wonderful letters from women in other countries echoing their desire, too, to talk over their problems with the home- makers of America. One little woman in Lima, Peru, wrote me an inspiring and poetic letter, saying that she felt our program would be the foundation upon which world peace would be built. “Men have their business, their professions and their governmental positions through whish to make contacts with representatives from foreign countries and establish a basis for inter- national understanding. The type of women represented in the General Federation is not in positions of that sort. But we think our con- tacts with the homemakers of the other nations are essential if the hearts of all peoples are to be drawn together. “We women don’t particularly want to enter the fields of commerce and business in which the men are still dominant. We have plenty of worlds of our own to conquer.”
