Medford Woman Reports on UNESCO
Conference Held in San Francisco
Mrs. H. P. Bosworth Jr., Med
ford civic leader who was one of
1500 persons invited to attend
the sixth national conference of
the United Nations Educational,
Scientific and Cultural Organi
sation held in San Francisco last
eek, has returned home. Mrs.
Bosworth is a member of the
board of Oregon United Nations
association, and was invited to
attend the conference because of
her work in the state and Med
ford associations. Asian-American
relations was the conference
theme.
Mrs. Bosworth reports that the
greatest experience in the con
ference for her was hearing
Mme. Vijaya Lakshmi Pandit,
the first and only woman to be
elected president of the United
Nations General assembly. A
pre-conference luncheon at the
St. Francis hotel, given by Am
erican Association of University
Women and 12 other organiza
tions with international affilia
tions, honored Madame Pandit,
who also gave the opening and
closing talks of the conference.
Leader Quoted
Mrs. Bosworth reports that
Madame Pandit set the spirit of
the conference in general and
for women in particular. Among
other statements, the UN leader
said "It is never possible to
change the world in its diver
sity." . . . She made a plea to
American women to "join hands
with the women of Asia to find
a road on which we can all ex
ist," and added, "Democracy is
only worth while if it appreci
ates the fact that there are
many roads along which the
democratic way may progress
and each country must follow
the road according to its own
need. If we realize this we shall
have no difficulty arriving at a
pattern by which we should
live."
Madame Pandit urged Ameri
can women to fully utilize their
opportunity to be a force for
world peace. She warned that
often "she is content to devote
herself to smaller things. She
has not organized herself for
winning peace. It is not enough
to work in groups for small pur
poses. Some groups at least
must work to meet the crying
needs of the world as a whole."
O More international exchange
trips for people in all walks of
life "students, housewives,
people doing jobs" is a positive
way of building world under
standing she said. "The only way
to understand people is to see
them in their own homes in
all their weakness and all their
strength. Then we can form cor
rect judgments of the things we
hear and the things we read
which tend to separate us."
The Medford woman reports
that Madame Pandit was very
beautiful in her lovely steel blue
or white and light blue saris.
"She moved in a charmed circle
with a great warmth in her
smile for our young people who
flocked about her when the oc
casion permitted," Mrs. Bos
worth reports.
A cordon of Boy Scouts es
corted her to the Indian delega
tion car on the last day when
she made the closing address of
the conference.
That the conference was in
San Francisco rather than some
other city, was fortunate for
q westerners, she said, as all dele
gates pay their own expenses.

MAIL TRIBUNE
i Several speakers noted that San
I Francisco was well chosen be
: cause generations of trade with
the Orient have given San Fran
cisco a special knowledge of
and interest in Asian-American
relations.
The conference theme was
j spelled out at length on the pro
i grams which were received dur
I ing registration "Asia and the
United States: What the Ameri
i can citizen can do to promote
j mutual understanding and co
; operation."
Delegates Described
"During the reception in the
mural room on the first evening,
the great number of distinguish
ed Americans from all over the
country were as exciting as the
Asians," Mrs. Bosworth reports.
"The unusual beards, mustach
ios, heads of handsome hair with
only a spanking of a few bald
pates gave an impressive and
distinguished air to the men
coming from all over the United
States.
"The women members be
longing to the many permanent
UNESCO committees were most
ly attractive matrons who talk
ed about many of the countries
of the world as if they were
next door. A favorite was Mrs.
Pcavey Heffelf-inger, who is the
UNESCO vice-chairman in U. S.
National committee. She has
been a delegate from our coun
try since 1953 to the internation
al UNESCO conferences in Par
is, Uruguay and India."
Mrs. Bosworth quoted Mrs.
Hcffelfinger as saying "We have
to stop accenting the differences
between Asia and the Western
world and concentrate on our
likenesses."
Another delegate was Mrs.
Waldo E. Stephens, a grandmo
ther, who belongs to five
UNESCO committees. To her
role as wife, mother, grandmo
ther, she adds "community sup
porter." "In the home those
roles give a tremendous oppor
tunity to shape attitudes and to
