Show IF. B. W. Wil! 1 Convene In Paris France International Federation of Business and Professional Wo- men will study the loiiowmg questions at the Congress to be held in Paris in July 1959. In the last five years have women gained or lost ground in seeking political recognition? recog-nition? In what specific directions should business and professional profess-ional women project their collective coll-ective prestige to induce voters , and especially women voters, to support candidates, when these are as well qualified as me'n for the same office? What incentives to political participation do women need which they seem to lack? In what respect do such incentives incent-ives differ from those which drive men to political success? What specific action and programs can we recommend which business and professional profession-al women are qualified to undertake, that will challenge all women to use their voting rights with knowledge and wisdom, wis-dom, and qualified women to seek opportunities for leadership leader-ship in the political field? These questions .should also stimulate us housewives to an alertness necessary in the coming com-ing voting year. |
