TOUGHESJJYE TOPICS
Club Women Advised to Co-Operate
Directly in Problem of Amer
jcanizin; Immigrants.
SHOULD JOIN NATIONAL COUNCIL
N'ew York, May 25. A step from
nationalism to internationalism, to
that assistance may be rendered in a
world-wide movement by women to
"harmonize the nation" after the
close of the European war, is recom
mended to the General Federation of
Women's Cluba by Mr. Fercy V.
Tennypacker of Austin, Tex,, in her
report, as president, given out today
at the thirteenth biennial convention
of the federation.
"Whlla call ourselves tha Oanaral
Titration of Women's Clubs, ret
may a wall tha fact that our for
eign cluba ara so few and far between
that wa ar In reality only national,"
Mn. Ponnybackar said. "On the conti
nent of Europa and In other eoiintriss
little la known of the federation because
there the great woman's movement la
rerreaented by the National Council! of
1 Women all united In the International
Council of Women.
Should Join National Council.
'Now, there la only one way In which
the federation can be repreaented In thll
International council and that la by Join
ing the already low -eatahllBhsd National
Council of Women In the United BUtea.
"I will confess that there la a deeper
reaaon that makea me so eager to aee
thla brought to paee. When the cruel
war la, over and peace cornea we ahell
find In the Internationa! council an or
ganisation that la ready ready for har-
moniaing the natlona which now are at
war ready for calling back Into wise
common counsel women who for ao many
yeara were accustomed to work aide by
aide.
"I pray that the l.WiO.000 women of the
federation may have the privilege of alt
ting in the council and of helping to
bring back Joy and harmony to the
women of the world."
Americanization of Immigrant.
Mra. Tennybacker made other raeonv
mendatlona of Importance to the future
activities of the federation. One of theae
urged that the organisation "go on record
hj favoring a continuance of effort on the
llnea of Improvement of rural life and
the Amerlcanliatlon of the Immigrant.'
tin thla connection the president ex
plained that her administration, having
"early felt the need of proper alliance
with the government," had established
a, system of co-operation with the De
partments of Agricultural, Interior and
Labor.
"Every club which la willing to aid the
gevernment In Americanizing the Immi
grant." Mrs. Tennybacker urged, "la
Invited to send the name of Ha president
and secretary to the president of the fed
eration. These names wilt be filed with
the commissioner of immigration. When
a foreign family lands, destined for a
town In which a Woman's club exlata, If
the commissioner finds on his list that
thla club baa signified Ita willingness to
co-operate, a letter will Immediately be
sent to the president of the club. It la
not money that these people want, but It
la the touch of human aympathy, the as
surance that there la a place for them
In the community, that women know so
well how to give."
These alliances wllh the government
branches, Mrs. Tennybacker declared,
"strengthen us, place ua In the dignified
position where we belong, and aid us In
doing efficient, scientific work; each step
thus taken helps our government and, If
we are sane In our action, each such co
operative step helps the whole cause of
womanhood."
i
Latin American History.
Another recommendation made by the
preaident favored action by the federa
tion by urging upon the clubs "the study
of the life and history of I.atln-Amerlcan
peoplea" and that the incoming board
suggest definite plans for assisting the
development of Tan-American relatione.
Recalling that the federation was, by In
vitation from the secretary of state, rep
resented at the Tan-American rongresa
In Washington. Mra Tennybacker said;
"Careful study convinces us that Ideal
relatlonshipa between the I'nlted Status
and the other American republics will
never be brought about until the women
of the countrlee more thoroughly under
stand each other. Knowledge brings until-re
tending, and understadlng brings
ympathy."
Motion Picture Problem.
The motion picture waa considered In
another recommendation, the president
urging the convention to request the In
coming board to make a survey of the
problem and outline a plan of action.
"No question haa aroused more inter
est among the homes of our land," she
said. "We realise that this institution
lias coma tn stay; that It ran be mads a
great educational f r-e, thai ni one Is
wholly to blame for the stata of affaire
that now confronts ua, but we realise
aiao that the av.raa. motion plotiire
tentla to drgrade rather than to uplift
the motl status of the spectator, He

METHODISTS STAND
BY DANCING RULE
Attempt to Lift Ban on Amusements
Defeated in General Confer
. ence by 435 to 360.
USEES OF TOBACCO CENSURED
Saratoga Springs, N. Y May 2S.
The Methodist general conference re
fused today by a vote of 435 to 360 to
remove from the discipline of the
church the clause which provides the
penalty of expulsion for church mem
bers who play cards, dance and at
tend the theater.
More stringent regulation regard
ing the remarriage by Methodist
minister of divorced persons are
provided in a report submitted by the
committee on the state of the church.
The church ha never recognized any
cause for divorce except adultery and
ha alway forbidden remarriage in
any case where a divorced wife or
husband is living. By the proposed
change a minister who performs such
a marriage ceremony is guilty of mal
administration and is to be held an
swerable to his conference.
The total abstinence by Methodist
church member from the use of to
bacco i urged in another report,
which states:
"We regard our solemn judgment
that the habitual use of tobacco is
a practice rait of harmony with the
best Christian life."
Polygamy and the social evil are
condemned by the committee on tem
perance and public morals. The en
forcement of laws prohibiting the
former is urged.
Regarding the social evil the com
mittee asserts that neither segrega
tion nor punishment by fines is a
remedy. The community should offi
cially expel and disperse vice, it con
tinues, and the state should provide
industrial settlements for the mental
ly deficient and an honest place in so
ciety for those mentally capable.
"Parents and others charged with
care of the young ought to give care
ful consideration to the proper edu
cation of our youth, to the end that
there may be health of body, purity
of mind and righteousness of life,
the report concludes. Action will be
taken later.
