women from every state and rep
resenting some 40,000 churches
of the denomination. Speakers
of national and international
note are now being secured for

This Is a very challenging
time to live in China,'' says Dr.
Wu Yl-fang, president of Oinling
College, Nanking, now "behind
the bamboo cnrtain" of Com
munist control. She reports that
the College carries on its Chris
tian and academic program with
200 students, and adds: "What
we are hoping is that the new
coalition government under Com
munist leadership may adjust to
the Chinese tradition of being
moderate. Our people have ex
perienced deep suffering and un
settled Conditions for decades
and have endured large-scale
fighting for twelve years. We
cannot help hoping once more
that after the Communists be
gin in earnest to build up the
country, they will consider the
interests of the people and the
nation. We in Christian educa-j
tion wish to contribute what we
can to the training of women and
the cultivation of personalities.'

gional councils, and three presi

Schmidt holds philosophy de
grees from the Sorbonne and
from the facultjr in Gendra,
Switzerland. She was named by
Church authorities in 1935 to
take over a parish in the Ceren
nes. In 1941, she agreed to go
and lire as chaplain at the con
centration camp in Gurs.
