Traveler Speaks Saturday
For Sorority Convention
Mrs. E. B. Aldrich, Pendleton, banquet speaker for a state con
vention of Delta Kappa Gamma sorority in Medford Saturday
night, warned her audience of 150 educators from all over Oregon
that America's influence abroad is declining. Mrs. Aldrich. who
has traveled extensively in recent years, said that the United
States, while the fountain-head of democracy in the world, often
misunderstands the needs and problems of other nations striving
for a democratic government. She quoted a state department of
ficial who said in Pendleton recently that "thoughtless statements'
by Americans often ruin the effects of our good deeds.
Mrs. Aldrich urged her listen-
ers to work towards the goal of ' eon pjr. Jessie Brodie, state
a true bi-partisan foreign policy j honorary member from Port
for this nation. iancj spoke on Latin America.
Mrs. Aldrich said that in ; rjr Brodie. retiring president of
much of Asia. Africa and boutn
American, where more than a
billion people are living under
"intolerable conditions" citizens
are striving for independence,
rights for everyone regardless
of race, creed or color, for eco
nomic progress and for peaceful
living conditions. She reminded
her listeners that these are the
exact same goals for which
Americans have always striven,
pointed out that the American
Revolution was the modern
world's first successful revolt of
a colony against an imperial
power and then quoted Prime
Minister U Nu of Burma who
said in Philadelphia last year
"The ideals of the American
Revolution are more explosive
than B52's or even a:om bombs:
in all parts of the world where
man lives under tyranny, or un
der foreign domination, or in
feudal bondage, those who
dream and plot and fight for
freedom do so in the name of
the eternal principles for which
your Revolution was fought."
Mrs. Aldrich reminded her
listeners of the tremendous in
fluence they wield as teachers
and said they must be watchful
of the ideas they inculcate in the
youth of the land.
During the banquet program
the sorority initiated Mrs. Eliza
beth Roe-Cloud, Portland, wid
ow of the late Dr. Henry Roe
Cloud, as an honorary member
of Alpha Rho state chapter. Mrs.
Roe-Cloud, an Indian, was given
the honor because of the out
standing work she has carried
on to educate the American
Indian. Dr. and Mrs. Roe-Cloud's
four daughters are all college
women, two having graduated
from Vassar, one from Wellesly
and one from the University of
Kansas. Mrs. Roe-Cloud is now
project director of the American
Indian Community Development
of the Field Foundation.
Dinner music was provided by
Bernard Windt, director of mu
sic for the Oregon Shakespear
ean festival, Ashland, Mrs.
Windt and their son, Peter. The
three played a program of Eliza
bethan and folk music on an
cient recorders, the lute and
viol. Mr. Windt gave explana
tory comment.
Mrs. Dorothy Elliott, Port
land, president of the state chap
ter, presided for the evening
and introduced state officers in
attendance. Mrs. Bertha Haskins
of the hostess chapter was ban
quet chairman.
' For the Saturday noon lunch-
the Pan - American Medical
Women's Alliance, attended a
meeting of the alliance held last
year in Santiago, Chile, and ex
plained the aims of the group
to the sorority members.
She pointed out that in much
of South America women are
restricted by tradition from en
tering many professional fields,
and explained the help South
American women are receiving
from North Americans in many
ways. She stated that through
aid from the' United States, the
position of the nurse - midwife
has been greatly elevated in
some sections of South America,
and added that the United States
is replacing Germany as the na
tion to which South Americans
go for medical, nursing and pro
fessional education.
The convention closed with a

ryn Siancliffe is president of the
local chapter and Miss JDelie

Monocord Nylon Thread
Said Superior Product
East Lansing, Mich. (U.R) If
you have trouble threading a
needle, you might try the new
monocord nylon thread which is
sold in all colors at most stores.
Miss Florence Rami, extension
specialist in clothing at Mich
igan State university, says this
is a permanently bonded thread
which doesn't ravel or untwist
and is easy to thread.
Miss Rann found monocord
nylon thread much easier to use
than the regular nylon thread
since it doesn't seem to have as
much static electricity as the
other synthetic threads. Another
feature of this particular thread
is the fact that it is translucent
and picks up the color of the
fabric you are using.
Because of the similarity in
elasticity and strength. Miss
Rann says use a synthetic thread
on a synthetic fabric. For ex
ample, use nylon thread for a
nylon fabric.
Miss Rann says never use a
synthetic sewing thread on cot
ton or any fabric which will be
ironed later with a rather high
temperature. She says synthetic
fibers are very sensitive to heat
and will melt.
