This spring, for the first time in the' society's 54-year-old history, there will be no continental congress because of the wartime difficulties of transporta tion and housing. The congress, originally planned for Chicago because the society's national headquarters in Washington, D. C, have been almost entirely turned over to the American Red Cross during the war, was cancelled earlier in the spring at the request of the office of defense transportation.

Among them is Mrs. Howard P. Arnest of Port land, one of the vice-presidents-general. Mrs. Arnest, only vice-president from the western region, was one of six whose terms normally end in 1945.
