This is in accord with the desires of the adminjstration. Such a clause of course does not order the president to do anything. It gives him ¢he author- ity to take such action when In his opinion conditions exist which call for it, and there are no reasons to belie that he will not exercise good judg- ment in the use of that authority. An embargo upon exports can of course be looked upon as dstrimental to the business of this country. Such & thing is not contemplated. This government can have no desire to cripple any line of activity where pro- duets are being sent abroad. Such Wednesday, May 16, 1917.

Mr. Editor: As some uncertainty and some danger of confusion in resard to the war service work for which women are so patri- otically and readily volunteering, may I ask vou to find space for the follow- | seedsmen and can usually giving | ing information which T am with the endorsement of Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, chairman of the Wo- man’s committee. The Woman's committee 1s a commit™ tee appointed by the govement at Washingion. It forms a_subordinate part of the Council of National De- fense, which is composed of six mem- bers _of President Wilson's cab- inet—Secretaries Baker, Houston, Lane, Paniels. Wilson and Redfleld, and Mr. Gompers, representing labor. The members of the Woman’s committee are Dr. Shaw. chairman, Mrs. Philip! Moore, secretary: Mrs. Stanley Mec- Cormick, Miss Maude Wetmore, Mrs. Joseph Tamar, Mrs. Johiah Cowles, Mrs. Catt, Mrs, Funk, Miss Agnes Nes- tor and Miss Ida-Tarbell. The purpose of the commiitee is to co-ordinate the activities of women In war service work. At the time of its appointment it had become evident hat volunteer service and volunteer managemert were neither sufficient nor efficient Ther was much overlapping and waste of effort. Fos example there ~were mx different svstems of registiavion of women being pursued by different orzanizations, and not one of thess systems would be of service| to the government in case of need. for noue conformed to the system adopted by the rovernment for men. "The offer of services by women found the men in authority unprepared to mal:> ary use of them, and it was Guickly teen that if the work of wo- men was 1o be of real national use, it Would have to be managed by women— hence tiie appointment of the Women's committee. The plans of the work of the com- mittee are not yet matured: but the seneral lines of work, as outlined by Miss_Tarbell for the committes are: (1) Registration of women. (2) Food production and conservatfon: (3) Care and protection of women in industry. (4) Training for special services as needed.
