PAN-PACIFIC WOMEN IN CONFERENCE

An Interesting Account of the Honolulu Meeting By A. Viota The first Pan-Pacific Women's Conference has gathered, held its sessions, and is about to disperse. What have been its achievements, what its weaknesses, what is its fature?

One of the most interesting aspects to be recorded is the growth in programme concept which took place as national group after group arrived, prior to the convening of the Conference. From a prevailing dea that the chief value of the conference would lie in the exchange of national experience upon phases within the general interest-spheres of health, education, women in influstry and. professions, social service and government, there grew new thinking that there were some: phases of these subjects which were of themselves international in scope and, therefore, as such, they rightly' had their place upon the programme of an InternationafConference.
