Outstanding as' a conference
SDeaker. the Eugene group said,
was Dr. Gerald B. Switzer, fac
ulty member at Union College,
University of British Columbia.
Addressing the Sunday morning
session, Dr. Switzer attacked the
"national superiority complex"-
self-centered nationalism as op
posed to effort toward interna
tional welfare as the root of
world conflict He also criticized
race prejudice as "old-fashioned,
unscientific, infantile, and anti-
Christian." and urged emphasis
oii traits of the individual rather
than the group. He concluded by
listing several concrete ' sugges
tions whereby YWCA club mem
bers might combat race prejudice
in their local communities.
Theme Given
"Attuned to the Times" was the
theme of the conference, which
opened with a Saturday noon
luncheon at Vancouver YWCA.
Miss Janette Schlicting, Spokane,
chairman, introduced Dr. Switzer!
as the afternoon speaker. The
principal address at an evening'
banquet at Vancouver Hotel was
given by Mrs. Bette Zdan, Cana

piea .Europe. Henry Travers,

Li Chao, Chinese consul, and Mrs. ;
Gordon Birk, president of the.
Vancouver YWCA, also spoke,
briefly. Delegates stood to toast
the king of England and the presi- j
dent of the United States.
The Sunday sessions began with ,
a worship service led by Tacoma, I
Wash., delegates. A business meet-!
ing followed; then Dr. Switzer
again addressed the group. Girls1
from the Chinese "Y" center inj
Vancouver were hostesses at a I
chow mein luncheon. At the final!
session, business was concluded
with the election of officers re
sults to be announced later. Mrs.
Ruth Rohlfs, Seattle, a member
of the YWCA national board, de
scribed world activities of the "Y,"
its origin, and its organizational
set-up.
Responsibilities for the annual
mee.ing were divided among the
towns represented, with Eugene
in charge of lunch tickets. Dele
gates chose Spokane, Wash., as
next year's conference site.
Mrs. Chase drove the Eugene
"Y" representatives to Vancouver,
