"I will sign," Mr. Litvinoff said when the women told him they had failed to get the subject of equality on the League Assembly's agenda. "Don't forget that we have com- plete equality for women in Russia."
The women told M. Litvinoff and other delegates that the League Secretariat seemed to them to be conspiring to balk the women's project. Later they besieged the hotels of other delegates, and by noon they had ob- tained signatures from representatives of Czechoslovakia, Turkey, Mexico, Chile, Co- lombia, China, Panama, Siam, Haiti, the Do- minican Republic, Argentina, New Zealand. Latvia and Yugoslavia.
An impetus to the American doctrine of most-favored clauses in treaties was given by the adoption of a report on world economic conditions by the economic committee. T h e committee informed the Assembly that ob- stacles to international trade were reduced by collective actions by States through agree- ments invoking the most-favored-nation clause.—Nezv York Times.
Miss Colcord to Assist in
Rehabilitation of Virgin Islands
-f- SEARSPORT.—Miss Joanna C . Colcord (T). a director of the Russell Sage Foundation of New York, a former Searsport girl, being the daughter of Mrs. Jennie Sweetser Col- cord and the late Capt. Lincoln A. Colcord
of Searsport, has been awarded the honor of being placed on the Advisory Council, by President Roosevelt, to assist in carrying oui the permanent rehabilitation program of the Virgin Islands.
Other members of this council are Secre- tary Ickes, D r . Mordecai Johnson, presideni of Howard University; George Foster Pea- body, a lawyer of nationwide reputation; Charles W . Taussig, Henry A. Wallace, Al- fred K. Stern, a leading executor of Sean Roebuck Co., and Walter White, executivt secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of colored people.

Women's Rights
-f- GENEVA.—Maxim Litvinoff, Soviet For- eign Commissar, took the lead today, within four days of Russia's admission to the League of Nations, in demanding equality of
rights for women.
He was the first to sign a petition submitted
by an international committee of women, which included among its members Madeleine Doty (N) of New York and the Misses Alice Hall and Mabel Vernon of Washington, D. C.
in a long range social and economic program, the profits of which are immediately resowr. in the islands. The socill phase of the pro- gram calls for: First, the homesteading of tenant and unemployed labor on small parcels of land which they are enabled to purchase from the government over a period of years
Second, the construction of two-room houses in order to relieve a tropical slum con- dition which parallels any existing in the mosi crowded cities of the United States.
Third, a system of old-age and unemployed compensation modeled somewhat along the lines of those discussed by President Roose- velt.
Fourth, a supplementary educational system

to provide both for adults and those in the pre-school age.
The second part of the program, the eco- nomic, envisages the manufacture of rum, the improvement of the bay rum industry, the increase of the winter vegetable crop during the off-season in the United States, the im- provement of handicraft industries and the furtherance of the tourist trade through the building of a new hotel.
It should be emphasized that all of these plans, except the rum industry, were in our program of three years ago, but they have been given important impetus by the termina- tion of prohibition and the simultaneous deci- sion of the Public Works Administration to allot funds for the construction of the hotel and the revival of the rum and other indus- tries.
Miss Colcord has been actively interested in the affairs of the Virgin Islands for many years. She went there for the American Red Cross in 1920, to establish the Red Cross or- ganization there. She spent over a year there, having a leave of absence from the C. O. S. for that purpose, her mother, Mrs. Lincoln A. Colcord spending some time with her. At that time the Islands were under navy juris- diction. Miss Colcord, who has been engaged in social sendee work in New York for many years, has in addition to these strenuous duties, written many books on social service work and has also brought out a book of sea Chanties, entitled, "Roll and Go." Miss Col- cord is a sister of Lincoln Colcord of Sears- port, the well known critic and writer, and, like him, spent her childhood on her father's ship and visited practically all parts of the world. They come from a race of shipbuild- ers and commanders and love the sea.— Bangor Daily News.

Alpha Omicron Pi national sorority started t |,j, work of social service two years ago and the Minneapolis chapter has aided vigorously. Alpha Omicron Pi, as a national organization, maintains a trained social service worker, ^li^s Bland Morrow, as the director of the so- cial service department of the Frontier Nurs- tftg Service of Kentucky. Miss Morrow's ac- tivities range from giving canning demon- strations to working on a proposed 10 year public work- program. She has many duties such as buying seeds out of the sorority fund, looking alter the welfare of mothers and their children, negotiating for marriage licenses as well as supervising the nurses of the service.
When Mrs. Mary Breckinridge, director of the Frontier Nursing service in general, was in Minneapolis recently she told interestingly of the chosen field of an area of 700 square miles in the mountains of eastern Kentucky.

The last annual report of the service showed that the nurses made 17,750 visits to the mountain people, the nurses re- ceived 20,000 visits from the mountain people; 2,250 more visits received than made is ample proof that the people want the nurses' care. Seventy thousand inoculations have been made in the nine years and 5,000 children have re- ceived hygiene care during the last year.

with case work, lint she reaches the greater part of the area through her relief work affil- iations. She is a member of the Kentucky emergency relief administration area board, with a territory of five counties, and is also a member of the Leslie county relief com- mittee. Miss Morrow has been appointed a member of the executive committee of the Kentucky Conference of Social Work.
A dental clinic was proposed by the county relief committee of which Miss Morrow is a member. With the cooperation of the county health officer, the Frontier Nursing Service and the dentists of Hazard, the nearest town of any size, the clinic was conducted for 10 days last summer, treating about 250 patients.
More than a third of the Alpha Omicron Pi fund Miss Morrow uses for child caring service. Some children she has under her en- tire care, placing them in foster homes or boarding schools; others she gives partial care, such as buying their shoes, clothing, and school books. She makes school arrangements for handicapped children also and has sent several children to schools for the blind and deaf.

Medical social service, loans for education, family service and the seed program are other important items in her annual budget,
aside from administrative expenditures.
Flood control and scientific forestry are other projects being considered by the local relief committees. The mountaineer pays for every service he receives. Some times he must wait until harvest to pay back to Miss Morrow the seed she gave him in the spring. Sometimes he gives a pig to the Frontier Nursing Service. He may work out a med- ical fee in one of the nursing centers, or he may bring in a couple of beautifully made split bottom chairs. In some way he pays for
every service.—Minneapolis Journal.

Boston Alumnae Hold Treasure Hunt
By Dorothy H. Downs, A
-f- RENA GREENWOOD Smith was hostess in her lovely Wellesley Hills home for our first meeting of the new season, September 28. After a delicious meal, Mary Heald, chapter president, reviewed plans for forthcoming meetings. Margaret ITarter was in charge of transportation for the "Treasure Hunt" meet- ing of October 27. Edna Webb and Dorothy Ruck had tickets ready for their "National Work Fund" bridge, this one party in place of several small ones. Christmas cards for the fund are on sale with Mrs. Stuart (On) in charge. Constance Tenney and Ruth Coughlan were welcomed to the committees on membership and newspaper publicity. A n - ticipation was high for the Treasure Hunt when actives were entertained. Mary and Francis Heald mapped an extensive route in rhyming clues. From fraternity rooms, cars with cheerful crews, sought messages at garages, post offices, police stations, water troughs, town halls, and the "Flying Dragon." All paths led to Byfield, where, in a charming old-fashioned house. Hallowe'en fare was ap- preciated. T o the actives went the "Treasure," kitchen tools with bright red handles. Doro- thy Buck and Edna Webb made pleasing host- esses for the "National Fund" bridge at the former's home in W ollaston. Each table netted two dollars. Ice cream, coffee, and cakes started off the bridge playing. Dainty Dresden-like dishes were prizes at each ta- ble. The annual Founders' Day meeting was successfully planned by Grace Margaret Rourke. On December 7 about sixty Alpha O's met for dinner at Wyman's English Tavern in Arlington. Lillian Schoedler (A '11) spoke informally on her wanderings in far lands, her talk centering on Persia. A rising greeting of welcome was given Octavia Chapin, who is recovering from a serious ill- ness. Initiation was conducted by the active chapter for two of its pledges and another Founders' Day was brought to a close in the reading of the National President's greeting of renewed faith in Alpha Omicron Pi ideals
by our president, Mary Heald.
Buffalo Alumnae Hear Interesting Talks
By Kathryn Kendrick Wilson, P
-+- A PAXHEM.ENIC tea in May peaks the year's program of the Buffalo Alumnae Chapter. Although there is no organized Panhellenic group in the city, it has become the custom of late for some national sorority to act as hostess at a tea each year. These teas have been given in private homes with representatives from all sororities assisting. Between 200 and 300 fraternity women usual-
ly attend. Our plans for such a large pa are still of the vaguest sort. Founders' Dwas celebrated fittingly by a banquet at TKFairfax, T uesday evening, December 11. Rcandles and a bowl of red roses decorated ttable. Helen Gillis and Martha Arthur M

Our Rho Homecoming dinner was given at the chapter house on November 10. A large crowd attended. Helen Hawk Carlisle enter- tained us at our last meeting on November 20 at her home with a delightful musicale. Dinner preceded the program, and, as usual,
our A O n birthday candle. Janet Weismiller (Z) represented the "Holder" or the Found- ers; Katherine Clement (X) the molded cyl- inder wax of the candle, or the alumnae chapters; Virginia Berry ( e ) the wick, or the

e v e r y Alpha O chapter in the universe gathered at the Kappa Theta house in Westwood for Founders' Day on December 9. The fact that everybody lands in California sooner or later was certainly borne out by this excellent and varied representation. We all met for buffet supper, which was followed by several skits prepared by some of our more talented alum- nae. But perhaps the main event of the eve- ning, at least to Darline Dowell (KG'37), was her initiation. In the way of monetary news, we might say that the alumnae held a success- ful raffle of three pairs of tickets for the Cali- tornia-U. S. C. game in November, the money going to the National Work fund. Raffling tickets to football games seems to be a sure- fire way of raking in a shekel or two. The chances fairly jump out of the hands of even the worst salesman. Muriel McKinney, Carrie Kistler ( 2 ) , Helen Haller, and Erna Taylor (A) trekked up to Berkeley to the District Convention about October 26. We caught sight of Muriel at the annual Kappa Theta winter formal, and looking most elegant too, the early part of December, and amidst anchoring her corsage, gallantly presented by Mr. McK., as- sured us that the convention was a great suc- cess. The five groups, in which the alumnae chapter is divided, are still functioning nicely, with the knitting addicts knitting and the younger Kappa Theta group still getting to- gether for just a plain old-fashioned oral work-out. And contrary to the fact that Vdnity Fair (buy your subscriptions through your fraternity—adv.) predicts that a new form of bridge is soon to upset contract no end, our bridge groups report no dissension in the ranks as yet, with everyone still playing
old-fashioned contract.
Madison Alumnae Increase Membership

-4- OUR NOVEMBER meeting was an inspiration to all of us. We saw the fruit of our ef- forts to enlarge our local group. We rejoiced when we saw over thirty girls present, twice our average attendance. This year, one of our main projects was to make our meetings so interesting that recently graduated AOII's and older ones who had drifted away would hear of our good times and charitable deeds and hasten to become actively affiliated with our group. It was decided to continue donating ten cents apiece each meeting, as we had done in the past. This money is used for local philanthropic work and Eta emergencies. We are now forming plans for our year's national charity work. Our first steps have just been completed. A t our December meeting each alumna brought several articles of clothing to be sent to the children in Kentucky for Christ- mas. We were amazed at the size and attrac-

Founders' Day ban- quet, held at the Chapter house, was very im- pressive, due to the efforts of Lucille Camp- bell Murray and Alma Boehme Kuehn, co- chairmen, and their committee, which included Wilms Smith Leland, Betty Bond, Alice Lins- mayer and Margaret Wilson Bjorndahl. Doris Lohff Schlampp was the toastmistress par ex-
cellence, and the other speakers were Phana Wernicke Smith, Lillian Hoff Tyler, lone Jack- son and Irma Hammerbacher, who represented the actives. The theme carried out was "Earlv Candlelight."
The last event, to date, was a Giristmas bridge party held at the chapter house on De- cember 15. This was more or less a "get ac- quainted" party and, due to its success, more will be in the offing. Eileen Slattery Davis

THE NEW JERSEY Alumna? Chapter started
its meetings for the year in September with a picnic luncheon held at the summer home of Chloethiel Wright at Chester. About a dozen couples enjoyed looking over the old homestead which has been modernized, yet re- tains all of its early Colonial charm. In Oc- tober the chapter was entertained at bridge by Dorothy Clarke Mills ( 2 ) at her home in Englewood. The November meeting was held
at the home of one of our Founders, Elizabeth Wyman. As usual, the afternoon was enjoyed and bridge was played. It was again decided to have a door prize at every meeting this year to raise money toward Jersey's quota for the Frontier Nursing Service. We also expect to have a subscription bridge party in February for this purpose. The December meeting, of

FRESH FROM an alumnae ritual meeting to
induct new members, the editor of To DRAGMA hastens to set down the chapter ac- tivities. Under the guidance of Margaret Lyon Pedrick the chapter has been most active in two major functions: First, assisting the ac- tive chapter in rushing, and second, collecting money for the local philanthropic work (main- tenance of four Child Welfare clinics). Un- der the new rushing rules at Newcomb, rush- ing activities for the alunin<e have been neces- sarily limited to attending teas and assisting in making sandwiches for these. The usual schemes for raising money for the philan- thropic work have been reduced to monthly
bridge clubs and a rummage sale. The latter was a great success, netting a neat little sum, with enough left, all good material, to con- tribute to the Kentucky mountain box. A tur- key luncheon is being planned for the Found- ers' Day reunion.

A business meeting followed at which we were very surprised to hear our president, Mary Kent-Miller Tennant, must resign. Fate was changing her address to Paris for the next few years. W e were very sorry, because Mary had planned such an exciting program for us. After this startling news we talked over our various meetings for the year and discussed ways to raise money for our social work in the Kentucky mountains. Our November 7 meeting was an evening when our hands were at stake. W e met at the Parkside Lounge and Miss Eric May Brook, after examining our handwriting and the structure of our hands, told each one of us what kind of work and hobbies we were best suited for. Founders' Day was celebrated splendidly. The New York, New Jersey and Westchester Alumnas held a luncheon at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. Amy Bernhard, our acting president, greeted the group and introduced Mary Donlon ( E ) , our toastmistress. I'm afraid I'll make all Alpha O's jealous when I tell you the celebrities present: three of our Founders, Stella George Stern Perry, Jessie W allace Hughan, and Elizabeth Heywood Wyman. We were all sorry that Helen St. Clair Mullan could not be there, and hope that she will soon be well again. I'm not finished yet, though, for our National President, Edith Huntington Ander-

ALONE IN QUALITY
The ancient jewelry craftsman, following in the steps of his father and grandfather before him, prided himself on his handiwork which stood alone in its high quality and fine craftsmanship.
Just as in the manufacture of your own fraternity badge today, the old craftsman was satisfied only with the best materials obtainable and through his years of ex- perience put forth his skill to fashion fine gold, silver, and precious stones into jewelry which was truly beautiful and which would be a worthy symbol of all that is fine, permanent, and beautiful.
Balfour craftsmen today create your fra- ternity badges, keys, and rings, adding those finishing touches by hand which set such jewelry on a plane high above ordi-
nary insignia and personal accessories a class alone in quality.
