Women Increase
Political Activity
As Election Nears
As the primary and general
elections draw closer in this
presidential election year, polit
ical activity of women in Med
ford and the valley increases
dally. This includes not only the
party activity of Democrats and
Republicans, but the non-partisan
efforts of the League of
Women Voters.
Mrs. Edward C. Kelly, chair
man of Jackson County Demo
cratic Central committee, and
Mrs. Curtis L. Hopkins, who
holds the chairmanship of Jack
son County Republican Central
committee, pointed out the
great responsibility which wom
en should feel in politics in
statements issued last week.
"Give today's woman worker
a precinct map and the borders
melt into a circle," Mrs. Kelly
said. "In her restricted precinct
she covers the nation. She covers
the world. Her share of the
world's problems are there, In
the precinct, for her to solve.
"Woman's stake in good gov
ernment has never been greater,
nor the need for Jicr help more
insistent. The welfare of her
children, of the aged, the cost of
living, the family payroll, edu
cation, health these are all
matters for legislation. Her alert
interest and influence can solve
these problems to her own lik
ing. "The achievement of world
peace is woman's responsibility.
She has brought those sons into
the world. What is she going to
let happen to them and to their
future? Is she going to shrug her
shoulders and sit at the bridge
table? Or is she going to help
select the best leadership possi
ble and then vigilantly and tire
lessly join hands with all citi
zens of good will to maintain
peace in the world?"
"Today there are nearly 2,
000,000 more women than men
of voting age in America," Mrs.
Hopkins pointed out. "If all of
them were registered and if all
voted, they could determine the
outcome of any election.
"If women really want to save
their sons from being slaugh
tered in undeclared wars, they
can save them; if women really
care what the future holds for
the youth of the nation, they
can do something about it; if
women really want peace, eco
nomic freedom and equality of
opportunity for all, they can
have it.
"If they are too lazy or In
different to actively participate
in politics, they deserve no bet
ter government than they are
willing to work for.
"I hope the women of Ameri
ca wake up to their great respon
sibility and exercise the privil
ege which their sisters fought
so hard to win for them almost
40 years ago, the privilege of
voting. My advice to the women
of Jackson county? Register and
vote Republican in November."
Mrs. Frank Fairweather, pres
ident of Medford League of
Women Voters, pointed out that
the league program is to edu
cate women how to participate
in politics and that the league
urges women to register and
vote in the party of their choice.
Mrs. Fairweather quoted the
purpose of the league which is
"to promote political responsi
bility through informed and ac
tive participation of citizens in
government." She pointed out
that the success of government
depends on the individual citi
zens and added that the league
"alerts the citizen to the fact that
politics is his job, shows the citi
zen how he can be effective in
that job and helps the citizen to
work for better government.
