For more than half a century the mjsv-.
tional society of the Daughters of the
American Revolution has held its an
nual continental congress, as its con-,
vent ion is called, during the week of
April 19 anniversary of the Revolur
tionary war battles of Lexington and
Concord.
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.
Because of that cancellation, national
officers whose terms would have ex
pired this year, will hold office until
another spring or until such time as an
other conference can be held. 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. She
has been in office since 1942.
