Twill be Interesting to watch
developments!
Mrs. Roosevelt towers above
all of us, which probably made
Mrs. Willkie appear positively
diminutive to us. Mrs. Willkie
has pretty hair (the gray in it
makes it appear ash blond or
platinum) and she wears it beau
tifully coiffured and topped by
smart hats. She thinks that good
looks achieved by careful
grooming are at least ONE of
the important things for women;
while Mrs. Roosevelt merely
submits to beauty shop and
dress routine with her mind
! completely occupied with ques
tions of social welfare, interna
tional affairs, politics, speaking
and writing, which she feels are
exclusively important.
Mrs. Willkie seems valiantly
determined to merge her life,
interests and personality with
that of her brilliant husband,
while Mrs. Roosevelt has for
many years driven ahead on her
own career and activities, with
the President's political career
merely one of her more vital in
terests. Both are very frank and
friendly and possess personal
charm plus. Both know all the
answers. Newswomcn are inter
ested in, and enjoy meeting and

Oregon branch is headed by
Mrs. Chas. L. McXary). espec
ially Mrs. K. Ethel Lathrop,
who was Jackson county dele
gate to the London meeting of
the Associated Country Women
of the World, will be interested
in an account of the recent visit
here of the association president,
Mrs. Alfred Watt.
Mrs. Watt left her beautiful
English country home several
months ago and has been tour
ing the countries represented in
this world organization of rural
women. She kept only slightly
ahead of the conquering hoards
right on her heels country af
ter country went under. She in
tends to live in her Canadian
home, for the duration, and has
been doing yeoman service for
the Canadian Agricultural Com
mission by recruiting rural wo
men for the battle of food pres
crvation and production. While
in Washington she consulted
with Secretary Wallace.
At the London meeting one
year ago. Mrs. Watt urged the
Association to set up Interna
tional Headquarters in the U. S.,
instead of in threatened Eng
land. Her suggestion was voted
down the opposition led by the
U. S. delegation (according to
Mrs. Watt), presumably because
many delegates were employees
of our government agriculture
and extension bureaus and
feared possible complications be
cause of our neutrality laws.
Now. Mrs. Watt reports, she is
being besieged with lamenta
tions from rural women every
where, including Nazi Germany,
because there is no neutral, cen
tral place for contact with each
other. However, Cornell Uni
versity has offered Mrs. Watt a
"personal" office, equipment
and a secretary, so she will do
what she can in that way.
I had the pleasure of taking
Mrs. Watt to see one of the
lovely suburban estates here.
With true British determination
not to display emotion, she
quietly described some of the
lovely spots in her English gar
den (which, no doubt. Mrs. La
throp has seen) and remarked
wistfully "should I never see it
again and should it escape
bombing, I hope someone will
care for my trees, shrubs and
flowers." Mrs. Watt has two
sons in this war, one of whom
also served in the first World
War.
