PACE TEN Tlx OREGON STATESMAN, Solam, Oron. Sundar Morning, November 21. 133 Women, of Oregon Complete Tasks, From Smallest to the Most Important By ISABEL CHILDS Both as bond campaign worker and as comptrollers of the family fortunes, women must be recognized by wir finance committees the country over, representatives of Oregon county war finance organizations emphatically declared in Portland at weekend sessions of the statewide WF committee. ? v From the tiniest tasks to the heaviest, women of Oregon ex hibited capabilities in the third war loan campaign - recently, said Sadie Orr Dunbar, speaking at the largely - attended Friday afternoon session. i Certain months have been de-. signated for the women's par ticipation division to carry the responsibility for bond sales for six Oregon counties, Mrs. Dun bar, head of the women's divi sion for the entire state, said. In no case, have the women failed to bring in their quotas. Coos county women have tak- . en a regular share of their coun try's quota each month, have always topped 100 per cent, once turned over to the labor division $6000 wortlj of, sales - credit and the women there are ad dressed with an extra ; note of respect, according to Mrs. Dun bar, -r- In Klamath county, the first time Business and Professional Women's club and the Sorop timist club undertook joint spon sorship of the entire month's Ccjnpaign, the highest record of the war for that area was es tablished. Down in Lakeview, the wo men's participation committee consists of one service club, al though on 'December .7, will launch what promises to be Lake county's most successful cam paign. Borrowing from last year's December drive sponsors there ' the idea of a Pearl Harbor din ner, tor which a charge of one $100 bond per plate is made, they believe that more than $20, 000 worth of such bonds will be sold by that day to residents of Lakeview area alone. Granges and other organizations over the county will hold similar dinners, and the "take" may well put Lake over the top before the , end of the first week in Decem- ber. , '( Marion county's comparatively new women's division was repre- sen ted at the conference (which was half morale - building and half training course) by Mrs. ; David Wright, chairman, and this writer. Firm in her belief , that women anywhere who are ; given a task and a share in the formulation of policy will do ev- 't. en' more than is asked of them, Mrs. Wright gathered suggestions from the dozen other county chairmen of women's participa tion. ( Women of this area may ex pect to hear those ideas shortly, for Mrs. Wright, who headed the , efficiently - ' conducted county wide survey of womenpower here more than a year ago, knows some of .the "tricks of the trade" when it comes to organizing wo men. t The blue treasury banners, gi ven to organizations in recog nition of the fact that 90 per cent, or more of the membership has established some systematic plan of bond purchases, may make their appearance in Marion coun ty." Used in Multnomah county, they have stirred women's clubs of various types to both thought and action, Mrs. Dunbar declares and Mrs. Wright was noted jotting-down a reminder about the awards. ; Women of Rotary will meet Monday afternoon at 1 o'clock for luncheon at the First Con gregational church. Mrs. Robert Elfstrom will preside at the bus iness session.
