Federation
Is Praised .
Los Angeles-(liPD-The Jen;
eral Federation of Women's
clubs today was praised as
one of the few remaining free
forums for the expression of
ideas by Mrs. Beatrice Fuerst,
national consultant on volun
teer activities for the National
Foundation.
Speaking at the 68th an
nual convention of the GFWC,
Mrs. Fuerst called on the or
ganization to use its educa
tional powers to impress upon
ine American people tnat a
voluntary , system of health
protection and scientific re
search is as necessary to
America as a free economy
and an industrial framework
of free enterprise.
"Without health," Mrs
Fuerst said, "life must be
lived at its lowest ebb. With'
out neaun mere can be no
education. Without education
there can be no democracy or
economy. And without those
fundamentals which are the
essence of democracy in its
irue sense, mere can be no
cultural or spiritual progress
in any civilization."
Mrs. Fuerst stressed the im
portance of voluntary health
agencies "through which
every woman will find an op
portunity for good civic house
keeping. The world needs
your example. For yours is
by far the greatest single
model of voluntary pioneer
ing against disease to be found
anywhere on this planet." '
Mildred White Wells, di
rector of the GFWC's com
munity achievement contest
presented "All This and
Heaven Too," a dramatization
of the rewards, both tangible
and intangible, of entering the
contest. ' ' . ." .
Sponsored by the GFWC in
operation with the Sears-Roe
buck Foundation, the contest
is open to all member clubs
of the GFWC around the
world. With five months , to
go before the IJpvember; 14

The president of an organization with more than three
million members believes that , women's groups would do
better if they got rid of some of thered tape. Mrs. William
Barclay Parsons, who says "it takes months to go through
channels" in most women's organizations, believes the whole
business is getting worse instead of better.
Mrs. Parson i nrpsiHnt nf h TCatinnal Poiinpil of
nvbmen of the United States,
International . Council embracing women's groups in 44
non-Communist countries. She says membership in the in
ternational group is in the millions, but there is no accurate
count. Mrs. Parsons, in an interview with Gay Pauley of
the United Press in New York, said the aim of the organiza
tion is to "exchange ideas to work together on problems
of special interest to women. She listed child welfare, edu
cation, health, housing, human relations, the arts, inter
national relations, family planning and moral welfare. For
instance, her group is working towards having atomic
energy used only for peaceful purposes.
The women's editor of The Mail Tribune, agrees with
Mrs. Parsons and we'll go even further. Some women's
organizations - and men's - could be abolished and would,
never be missed. We never heard of Mrs. Parson's National
Council of Women of the United States. However, its pro
gram and purposes sound very much like the General
Federation of Women's clubs, which boasts of 11 million
members. Are they covering the same- field?
In recent years more and more women-and men-have
been speaking out about the wastefulness of many organi
zations. They waste the time and energy of the member
ship, and they waste money. Some women are beginning
to drag their feet over the numerous drives - last winter
Mrs. Ernest Barr? sent Potpourri a story from Arizona
quoting members of the Prescott (Arizona) Woman's club.
The "Prescott women flatly said they were "fed up" with
the dozens of national fund-raising drives and voted to go
on strike. The gals said they would refuse to work on
any more fund campaigns unless the drives were unified.
They also said they would campaign for a city-county
ordinance barring house-to-house collections.
.
The two women worked hard all day cleaning house.
They carried all but the heaviest furniture out of the
living and dining rooms, the ceiling and walls were cleaned,
the wood work and windows washed, the furniture was
polished and 'the floor cleaned and waxed. After the furni
ture was back in place and the draperies hung again, the two
dead-tired females looked at the results and felt a glow of
accomplishment.'
The head of the household came home and after a stint
in the garden, settled down in his easy chair. After a time
his helpmate remarked that she was "done in" but didn't
he think the results were wonderful? After a time he
looked up and asked, vaguely, "What did you do today?"
.
Three-year-old Brent Bosworth, bidding his grandmother,
Mrs. Cora Wing, good-bye, had a, thought for the coming
day. "Thank you for the chocolate you'll give me tomorrow,"
he said. O.S. -
New York -(UPD- The num
ber of American households
has tripled .since the turn of
the century while household
size has declined steadily, ac
cording to the National "In
dustrial Conference Board.
From a total of 16 million
in 1900, the nation's house
holds grew to 50 million in
1958, but the size of the av
erage household dropped from
4.6 persons in 1900 to 3.4 last
