WOMEN AT SEA AND IN THE HOME IN CHINA VOYAGE AND NEWS
A fragmentary account describes women aboard a sampan aiding navigation and keeping the vessel, including cooking and washing tasks. It notes dark skin tones and hard work in rough seas, then shifts to profiles of accomplished women: Mrs. Clarence Weber as Victoria's first woman member of parliament, Miss Unni Diesen achieving a master’s in political economy, and Mile. Huang, a Chinese consul in London, rising from poverty to law studies and civil service. It concludes with conference plans for a triennial meeting of countrywomen in London, detailing dates and program aims for 1939.
