Labor Call:

The Women’s Peace Army is holding a great

demonstration in the Athenaeum Hall, Collins

Street, on Monday 30 August 8pm.

 

A resolution will be submitted to the meeting

urging the Federal Government to urge upon the

Imperial authorities the necessity of declaring the

terms of peace, and from the meeting a

deputation will be appointed to wait upon Mr

Fisher, to convey to him the wishes of the women

at the meeting.

 

We urge all those who are anxious to end this

horrible slaughter to attend the meeting.

============

Woman Voter:

Let our delegates (at Imperial Conferences) ... 

enter into no defence or war arrangements ... not

first submitted to Parliament, and voted on by our

own people.

Let our watchword be

"No Secret Imperial Policy for Australians".
