CONFERENCE POSTPONED

PAN-PACIFIC ASSOCIATION During the past few weeks consultation among the International Council of the Pan-Pacific Women’s Association has resulted in a recommendation that the conference to have been held in Wellington next January be postponed. In this decision the New Zealand committee concurs. All arrangements made in New Zealand are therefore suspended for the time being. Application for inclusion in the delegation need not be made now until further notice. Applications already received will be held until required. Similarly, application for season-tickets for the conference need not be made now until further notice. Those who have already paid are asked to notify the treasurer, Miss F. L. Cooper, 196, Hereford Street, Christchurch, if they wish their fee returned or held by the treasurer until conference preparations are resumed. The New Zealand executive hopes sincerely that Study Groups will continue to function. Now, more than ever before, we need knowledge and clarity of thought, so that our influence, when peace comes, can be used with wisdom and compassion. A general meeting of the New Zealand national committee was planned for October 9. This will not be held now until some future date, probably in the New Year.
