139 Women Must Shoulder World Responsibilities, BPWC Told Mrs. Furey Speaks At Club's International Relations Observance Women' arc going to haye to educate themselves to new philosophy, a new attitude of responsibility and participation, if they make themselves felt in-world'affairs, Mrs, W. N. Furey told members of the Business and Professional Women's Club at an International Relations Day held Sunday. The affair, attended by about 40 members and.guests, was held at Tia Juana restaurant.

Mrs, Furey pointed out thatonly six per cent of the representation, were present at the London security a though every matter that was considered there, affects women equally with men. She quoted Ernest Grove vyho says in "American Women that women, before they obtained sul-. trace, brought about more good legislation, than they have, since they obtained the right to vote, citing the labor and prison reforms and other matters sponsored by such leaders as. Frances E.Wil- lard, Carrie Chapman Catt ana others of their calibre. "The women at home, do not pay a poll tax and do.

not go to vote, because they have a beauty parlor bridge appointment, and say of politics; I just don't care for that sort of thing' are the ones are going to have to develop different attitude the speaker said. The war isn't over, she continued: the uprisings occurring at a score of places, the unrest and discord abroad refute this, yet this is being ignored in the desire to slip back into the comfortable, easy way of things, -with no thought for the future, It is this, she said, which may well contribute toward other, and more terrible world conflicts. Women, much as they may want to be "just like men" in their rights and privileges, must learn how to shoulder their responsibilities and how to make their influence felt for the things they want the world to offer their children and other generations to come, Mrs, Furey was introduced by Miss Verlinda Yates, international relations chairman, and Mlis Frances Arnold, club president, conducted' a candlelighting ceremony, showing those countries in which national units of the International Federation of BPWC had been snuffed out by war.
