MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES The White House, Washington, D.C. MISS HAZEL PALMER, President National Federation of Business & Professional Women's Clubs Inc. Please give my greetings to the members of the Na- tional Federation of Business and Professional Women's Clubs joined in the annual observance of National Business Women's Week. “Salute to Women Who Work” is a theme which commands the respect and appreciation of the Nat'on. In the last generation, the number of working women has mare than doubled and they make an e-sential con- tribution to the business and professional life of our whole economy. Your new office building is a symbol of your grow- ing strength. Congratulations and best wishes as you prepare to enter into its use. DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER Recognition of National Business and Professional Women’s Week is taken in Mount Joy as Burgess B. Titus ‘Rutt, cenier, signs a proclamation (see page 1 this issue of The Bulletin) while Mrs. Lesier Roberts, club president, left, and Mrs. Lois Stotz, notary public, witness the signature. U.S. CHAMBER PRESIDENT ASSERTS SALES COUNTER EMANCIPATED WOMEN Fhilip M. Talbott, president of The Chamber of Commerce of the United States, says: “When I was asked to write something for the very worth- while occasion of NATIONAL BUSINESS WOMEN’S WEEK, it suddenly occurred to me that the success of women in business and industry is no longer news. “Simply to say that ‘Miss or Mrs. Smith or Jones’ has been promoted to an important position, while trying to make the point that this is remarkable because of the incumbent's sex, is almost absurd in these t(imes. . . . “Not long ago, the New York Stock Exchange reported that more than one-half of all stockholders are women—and the lar- ger percentage held preferred stock. It may be, that in the long run we men will find we have been working for the ladies all along. I'm confident that this will not really come as news either. In brief, we have reached the point where it is possible and entirely natural for both men and women to accep: women as executives, and as successful participants in our whole na- tional economy. For this, the National Federation of Business and Professional Women’s Clubs deserves much credit. “Myself, and the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, are happy to congraiulate the Federation, and to wish every success for this year’s observance of NATIONAL BUSI- NESS WOMEN’S WEEK.” SEPTEMBER 22 -28 NATIONAL BUSINESS WOMEN'S WEEK PROJECTS AND SPECIAL FUNDS CHINESE NURSING FUND FOREIGN EXCHANGE STUDENT KEY ADVERTISING MAXWELL SCHOLARSHIP NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS WOMEN'S MEDICAL COLLEGE FEDERATION OBJECTIVES The primary objectives of the Business and Professional Women's Oraanizations is to promote the interest of Business and Professional Women BPW Seek. . . . ® To elevate the standards for women in business and in the Professions. ® To promote the interest of Business and Professional Women. ® To bring about a spirit of cooperation among Business and Professional Women of the United States. ® To extend opportunities to Business and Professional Wemen through education along lines of Industrial Scientific and Vocational Activities.
