Bill Grady reports that the Equal Rights Amendment may renew resolve and unity within the nation as the largest feminist group experiences faltering fortunes.
At NOWs Detroit conference Eleanor Smeal says party-unity is needed as ERA faces a March 1979 deadline. Delegates note past internal strife between factions led by De Crow and Friedan. Leaders warn that organizing a national ERA strike force may miss the Illinois turnout window amid renewed unity post Detroit.
NOW chairwoman Betty Friedan or NOW national board member Gloria Steinem discuss internal rifts and a past financial crisis. They cite reduced membership but say the group has reorganized, with plans for full time officers and renewed unity, as local officials remain cautiously hopeful.
