Two years of careful preparation, extended correspondence and close
attention to endless details by the president and officers of the
Alliance had brought to Copenhagen a congress of women prepared to
inaugurate a world movement for woman suffrage. Excellent arrangements
had been made by the Danish Association through four committees:
Finance, Miss Eline Hansen; Information, Miss Julie Laurberg; Press,

10,000 members, which applied for auxiliaryship. Fraternal delegates
