and expenses. It was evident that a
Campaign Committee must be formed and new groups interested, to
which the board agreed. Forty-five women met at the Lee Huckins
Hotel on January 21, adopted a plan for work and agreed to raise
a budget of $25,000, Mrs. Shuler stating that no financial
assistance from the National Association could be given until the
Board had taken action on her "survey" of conditions. Mrs. John
Threadgill was elected chairman of the campaign committee with a
salary of $100 a month and Mrs. Julia Woodworth, the former State
secretary, was made executive secretary at a salary of $15 a
week. Mrs. Frank B. Lucas, chairman of finance, agreed to raise
the $25,000 necessary for the campaign with the understanding
that she was to have personally 10 per cent. of the money raised.
She raised a little over $2,000 and resigned April 1.

An organization of young women was formed in Oklahoma City and
State and city headquarters were opened in the Terminal Arcade.
Two organizers, Miss Josephine Miller who remained one week and
Miss Gertrude Watkins who remained three weeks, were sent by the
National Association. Miss Lola Walker came January 30, Miss
Margaret Thompson, a volunteer, and Miss Edna Annette Beveridge
in February, all remaining through the campaign.

Mrs. Shuler left April 6 for South Dakota and Michigan, both in
amendment campaigns. While in Oklahoma she had visited
twenty-seven counties out of the seventy-seven and organization
had been effected in thirty-two county seats; also the passage
obtained of a resolution by the Democratic and Republican State
Committees not only endorsing but promising to work for the
amendment. A Campaign Committee had been formed with
representatives from seventeen organizations of men and women
representing different groups with widely diversified interests.
Ten State vice-chairmen had been selected from different sections
and eleven chairmen of active committees. Headquarters had been
opened in Tulsa and Muskogee and others promised in the larger
cities. A canvass had been made of forty-six newspapers showing
only five to be absolutely opposed. The State had been divided
into ten districts and it was hoped that each might have the
services later of an experienced national worker.
