Dr. Wu Tells Democratic Women of Status in China—] THE SUNDAY ational Education Association to Meet—Women Voters BY CORINNE FRAZIER. ISING out of the strife and chaos of the Civil War in the East has come, among several things, the amazing emancipation of the woman of China ore complete, in the eyes of the la least, than is that of any of our West- ern women—members of the Women's National Democratic Club were told by the Chinese Minister, Chao Chu Wu, at the weekly forum luncheon, Monday afternoon at the New Hampshire ave- nue club house, which was crowded with a distinguished group, headed by Mrs. ‘Woedrow Wilson, honorary president of the organization. “Since the inauguration of tae re- public, the women have demanded equality with “men in every respect, | without exception,” seid his excellency, | “and it is theirs. “Before the law in China, today, men are with men on a plane of parity—there are no discriminations. Whether or mnot they take full ad-| vantage of their privileges, to assume equal responsibilities and attain equal | skill, rests entirely with the women themselves. | “Their progress, these first few years, | has been exceptional, in view of their | wholly retired state for so many hun- dreds of generations. They are mak- ing wonderful gains in both the politi- | cal and economic field and, so far as| their civil rights are concerned, have ad- vanced already beyond the women of many other countries. They have equal rights of inheritance with the male members of the -family, for instance. Just last year, a law was passed wiping | out the last discrimination in this re- spect. pt("l‘od the women of your own sountry are agitating for something that | our women have had a long time— the right to keep their own names after | marriage. In China, a woman may and | does use her maiden name as well as| her husband’s name, and some of our | famous women in history are known only by their maiden names—some hus- | bands we do not even remember. | “Our women are taking a vital in- terest in politics,” Mr. Wu continued, “and in constantly increasing numbers are coming to fll‘lleflf;ant ln"ml'\lg the u'ut- standing politic: res of the country. ‘We hl\g'e had women in the highest council of the Nationalist party and in the highest circles of our government. ‘We have today women taking a very active part in the government, and one woman bears a distinction that I be- lieve cannot be matched by a woman anywhere else in the world—that of being chief justice of one of our most important courts in Shanghal. “What is even more significant than this, however, is the part that women in general are taking in political and governmental affairs. They are joining with our men in the work of the po- litical groups, and in all departments of the government there are numbers of to Plan Convention. “There is no limit to the possibilities | for them, once they have gained the | experience and training that they nat- urally lack after so many centuries of retirement " The Minister also discussed the broad | democratic principles on which the Chinese government is founded, deciar- ing that in reality his country is one | of the oldest democracies in the world, | the exception of the immediate im perial family, no government official has held office in the past 1000 years cept through his own merit, as proven partially to rich and poor alike. | * o ok o | JPLANS for the approaching national convention of the National League | of Women Voters. to be held in Louis- ville, Ky.. the end of April, will be the chief topic of discussion at the annual | Midwinter meeting of the executive board of the league, which will take place at the quarters here in Washington Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of this weel Miss Belle Sherwin, president of the league, will preside over these sessions, which will be attended by the follow: ing members: Miss Katharine Luding- ton of Old Lyme, Conn., first vice presi- dent; Mrs. Roscoe Anderson of St. Louis, second vice president; Miss Ruth Morgan of New York City, third vice president; Miss Elizabeth J.

Caldwell, State regent, District of Columbia, has issued a call for the annual State conference to be held in Memorial Continental Hall March 5 and 6. This conference promises o be one of the most important in the annals of the local society, the latter having grown rapidly in numbers as well as in the amount of work accom- lished along all lines adopted by the g‘ S. D. A. R. Because of her nearness to the na- tional headquarters of the society, the District of Columbia State regency is almost a national office. Especially is this true during the weeks immediately receding Continental Congress, when istrict daughters are pressed into yeo- man service for all of the preliminary work of the great gathering. In a word, they are the official hostesses for every one of the 170,000 D. A. R. who may come to Washington at any time. This year they will again sponsor the official ball to be given at the Wil- lard Hotel in honor of the pages to Con- tinental Congress. The ball last year was a great success under the leader- ship of Mrs. Caldwell. The recently held meeting of the eastern division N. S. D. A. R., of which the District D. A. R. is a part, added ather new responsibilities to the local chapters. To arrange for this new bud- get list, a special State executive meet- ing was held last evening in the audito- rium, United States Chamber of Com- merce Building. All State officers and 60 chapter regents, representing 4,000 District of Columbia Daughters, at- tended the meeting.
