WORLD UNION OF ' WOHENPROPOSED Appeal from Europe to Break Down Traditions and Bring1 About Preventive of War. , AMERICA IS ASKED TO JOIN U'orrespnnrt'-i f of thr Associated I'r. GENEVA, April 22. The World Union of Women recently foundod here by Mrs. Clara (iuthrle Cocke of New Orleans, daughter of the late Judge E. J. Merrick, chief Justice of Louisiana. Is receiving support and members from all parts of the world. The Union, ' ef tabllr.hed upon thi common basis of womanly compas sion, which we shall endeavor to manifest Justly In rational thought and act," has insned the following address to American women: Ton havs been a tower of strength to the perncJteil and desolated WrUnia of the frightful rataslro;he whl'h . has overtaken Europe. !n arest wave of sympathy you ihvp equipped ships of mercy with focd and clothing an! you have given nobly, while all tlio world ha rrfsrrtod you wit It admiration. "But there exists now a vaster iucs tinn a more Important need. wh!-h the women of Kuroi-e call upon you to hi-lp them solve. It Is tho eonstrurtlon of the means to present the ponelhtl'.ty of a re currence of the cruel event through which we -are forced to llvo. Hampered hy Tradlllan. "This problem U unfortunately a much more complicated and difficult one when seen at clou range, from the. very enter of tha storm, than when viewed from 'across the ocean. We are hampered here hi Kurop 4v wlrt d.vM-rnce of men tality of age-old traditions and by the existing chaos from which you In Amer ica do not aufler. "We listen with admiration to the splendid, precipe, and definite prograjns Which your peaca psrtles havo been ahls lo draw, up. but- we acknowledge aadly that under the circumstances surround ing ua on the European continent 'they would be impossible for us to adopt. "And yst peace must be prepared and , tha women of Kurope must undertake thla preparation here. Hut they must do It In their own way and In accord with the many different mentalities of tint many respective nations. It Is one thing to desire peace and another to gel It. "Our program may therefore seem to you very simple, almost rudimentary, possibly lacking In decision and In bold nes. But It you will think of It, It Is In reality a very courageous thing which we have undertaken; to declare, war agalnct wkr among peoples who are undes the spell of the glories of militar ism: to spread the doctrine of fraternal love and indulgence where human hate Is rampant; to work for Internationalism emnnff those whose souls are aflame with national patriotism! ; to teach the value of Individual effort when Individ ual, rtjjht has never been at so great a discount. Is It-not a great, brave task ami one lor Which united'- womanhood, is . peculiarly fitted . . . "There are many things which we be liev In. wh.ch. we could not Incorporate In our program because we musf first unite upon a basis of humanity and pot of human opinions. . ' 1 ."We are therefore . starting out In a ruined world, content te begin humbly preparing the ground and sowing the seeds of peace, to try and counteract the evil which' makes war possible, and to suppress the frightful bitterness which a tha Inevitable aftermath of war does more thsn aught else to irdpede mutual progress. ' , ' ' '' We are content- te bogia . humbly at the very bottom. bo'uso we believe that It Is the only beginning possible to us; but we expect, step by step, to arrive to. get1)r at a, wise understanding of the deep and ' mysterious causes of war and a comprehension of what Is necessary to establish end maintain peace. . "We expect lo co-operate In a realisa tion which shall grant Individual rights and national rights and shall make of the I'alaca of Feaca (now closed and mockod In all the beauty of tie Inspiration), a temple of Justice, where national, differ ence shall be arbitrated, by an Interna, tlonal tribunal, to -who dodatoqa all mankind shall bow.' We. believe that united womanhod holds the key and the power, that we must learn togethtr hew te Ubem, . Liaklagt Wssms Tearether. This world union which we ask yen to enter, then, is the linking together of all women and thlr eruanisst)ons In every country on the simple basis of hu manity. Ils practical benefit - to the women In each country would be the ad vanoement of solidarity and fraternity among women ef all classes, and tha op portunity whlrh It offers to-the Individ uaJ. (no matter hew humble), to feel herself a sk ful unit with an Immi-dlate field for her activity and her deslra to work In the cause of peace. -'The women -of each country. will be troe to employ . their branch of the World union la a precis a : campaign aa la compatible. wILh renditions existing In their own land. - Thus programs of quite dlveree natures can ba forwarded by the World union aa long as these pro S rams conform In general with the lines uponjwhb-h it bss been otganlzed. There is no subject which concerns women ASItrh cannot lo benefited by such a U h Ion. It la the. link between all opin ions. all nationalities and. all women. "We need you .'arid your support and we leel aure. that ydw. our more favored sJsUrs. Mvtnr In happier condition, will "no more refuse ua your- aid than you hava refused the pleas for help which a mlerable world haa cried out to ou. ''Join ua In forming thla World union, bawd upon womanly 'compaaalon. that together we may U-ara how to manifest It Jufctly In rational thought and act."
