Women to Meet to Outline Work for Legislature
Des Moines leaders from ten organizations plan a June 27 industrial conference in Des Moines to map a legislative program for the thirty ninth Iowa General Assembly. The Iowa League of Women Voters Alf Florence Pierce WCTU and business women will participate to discuss women in industry maternity care and the Shepard-Towner bill. Debate centers on wage legislation and getting women into the legislature, with strong support for the maternity measure despite cost concerns. Mrs Devitt, long active in suffrage work, is promoting the conference which signals a robust united effort by state women.
