Sen. Lee Talks to AAUW
- Not until women , participate more fully in its government will
the United States be a complete democracy, but no woman should
ask to be elected, to office because of her sex. Sen. Dorothy McCul
lough Lee of Portland told members and guests of Sal en branch,
American Association of University Women, as she addressed them
Saturday afternoon at Lausanne halL - ' '
Women, the speaker-declared, usually take the lon? view, cf
any action, considering its eventual effects upon their fariilie3 and
their corrimunities, while men are accustomed to relating it to imme
diate results and to financial aspects of life. Both attitudes are re
quired to provide weU-balanced thinking in the home, she maintain-
ed, and both should be involved with governmental decisions. !
Dictatorships grew in three states where there was practically
no participation of women in government, Mrs. Lee pointed out as a
coincidence worthy of note. As a child, she told the group, she had I J
the opportunity of living in Germany, Italy and Japan, at various
times, where her fatherra naval officerwas stationed, and this feat- ,
ure of national life was impressed .upon herJ . -
: ,'v,;.-. ' -
Without a . common tradition o! ancestry, the United States is
bound together by ideals, and .must depend for its unity upca mutual
confidence. "We may be our country's worst enemies if vre do not
give to our government enough thought so that we may have con
fidence in iC' she maintained. Likewise, Mrs." Lee said, gcvarnment' ;
officials deserve to have confidence in the thinking and ur.derstand-ing-of
their constituents. , . ' , . -

Kiehle of Portland, state president of AAUW, brought greetings,5 the a .
