The part that women are play ing in national affairs is no bet ter evidenced than in the records of our great national conven tions. In this connection, it is interesting to note that at the Democratic National Convention of 1912—the first attended by President Roosevelt—there were only two women delegates. But at the convention of 1932, which nominated our illustrious Pres ident, there were 208 women delegates and more at Philadel phia in 1936. And everyone con cedes that the presence of the fine women who are leaders in the affairs of their respective states has meant more orderly and pleasant gatherings of Na tional leaders. It is all evidence that our coun try is beginning to make a great er use of the variety of abilities and capacities possessed by wo men, and many of the limita tions which were characteristic of the position of women in our earlier order are now being ov ercome. Except for an aged lady from Georgia who held office for one ceremonial day, no women had been either appointed or elected to the United States Senate un til the autumn of 1931, when Ark ansas elected the widow of a statesman to succeed her hus band for the unexpired term. Since, that distinguished lady, Senator Hattie Carraway, has been elected in her own right and is now serving with honor. Her daily presence in the Sen ate is an inspiration to her col leagues. In addition to being chairman of a committee—the Committee on Enrolled Bills— she also serves on the Commit tees on Agriculture and Fores try, Commerce and the Library. It is needless to say that she bears her share of Senatorial responsibilities. In the House of Representa tives are a number of active wo men who merit their voices. It is a far cry from the furore created in 1916 when Montana elected the first women to the National Leg islature. But whether serving in public voice at a desk, in the home or on the farm, women are proving their right to assume greater responsibilities and have great er recognition. And the visit of Mrs. Roosevelt to North Caro lina, where the First Lady will mingle with Carolina women who are first in the hearts of their communities, is more evi dence of the part women have and deserve in our affairs, na tional, state and local. -—Welcome, Mrs. Roosevelt— WHOLE TOWN IS ALIVE (Continued from Page One) the home of Dr. and Mrs. John D. Robinson. A large outdoor stage has been erected at the corner of Main street and the Exposition Build ing, and here, wtih Senator Ro bert R. Reynolds, Governor Clyde R Hoey, Congressman I Graham A. Barden, General Manus McCtoskey, and other in dividuals prominent in affairs of state and nation, the wife of our distinguished president will be introduced to her fellow country men. J. Aubrey Harrell, Mayor of the Town of Wallace, will make the address of welcome. Mrs. Roosevelt will then make a short address, which will be broadcast to the nation through the facilities of the National Broadcasting Company, affiliat ed with station WPTF, Raleigh. As the day goes on Wallace’s noted visitors will be entertain ed at various functions given by citizens. Mrs. Roosevelt will be the guest of honor at a tea given by the Wallace Woman’s Club between the hours of 4:45 and 5:45, at which time she will be presented to a long list of in vited guests. The tea will be the last ap pearance of Mrs. Roosevelt un til the departure of her train from Wallace at 7:48. Throughout the day news reel camermen will take pictures of the various aspects of the day’s atcivities, and representatives of several newspapers will be on hand in Wallace.
