ened with Mrs. Samuel t'. Shaw
presiding. Miss Sally l-‘anuy Gleaton
field secretary of the league. was the
first speaker. ‘

Miss Glcaton discussed the subject
of membership and urlzed all the
leagues in the state to try and
double their membership. She said
that present members In canvassing
for new members should try and
impress upon the people the fact
that. although they may not agree
.with each and c\ cry idea of the
league that on be whole the league
works for so many wnriiiw'llile
things that it is a great privilege to
belong to it.

 

 

She citedthe case of a prominent
than who was approached for a con-
tribution by Miss Luddlngton. na-
tional finance chairman. This man
was not in accord with the ideas of
the league in backing the federal
control of the child labor movement.
let be stated that there were so
many other good things for which
the. league was working that he con-
sidered it a well worth while organ-
ization and thereupon donated 8100.

impressions of a woman in tho legis-
lature. She devoted a good period
of her talk to various people In the
legislature. Spoke very highly of
Miss MRI‘JOI‘IC Cheney whom the men
at first called an "obstructionist."
due to the fact that she wants to be
sure every measure has a square
deal before it goes through, but who
now call her the “conscience of the

legislature;" of Mrs. Helen Lewis;
who is chairman of the committee
on education} and of “Shang”

Wheeler. the funmaker of the house
and father of the. anti pollution bill.

In the afternoon. Robert Crosby.
secretary of the. Chamber or Coni-
merce spoke. devoting most of his
talk to a discussion of parks.

lie stated that we must have more
public. parks and beaches to take
care, not only of ourselves. but of
all those who-come. to visit us from
New York: that. these people will
come whether we want them to or
not and that it would be much bet-
ter to have a place to put them when
they do come.

lie explained how l’airficld coun-
ty was the gateway to New England
and that within ih enext twenty-31’s
years the population of this county
vvouid probably double.

He cited Westchesier county. New
York. as an example of the proper
way to "park and beach" a county.
