Ukrainian Women’s Conference Organizing Committee OVER 200 ATTEND 50TH ANNIVERSARY LUNCHEON More than 200 people gathered at the Roosevelt Hotel on June 13, 1982 for an UNWLA-sponsored luncheon celebrating the 50th anniversary of the First Ukrainian Women’s Congress in the U. S. which was held in May 1932 in New York. In attendance at the an niversary luncheon were many representatives of Ukrainian community organizations and also many UNWLA members of all ages and Branches. The Congress was an important milestone in the history of UNWLA, which was organized in 1925. It led to an expansion of UNWLA membership and the con solidation of a network of UNWLA Branches into a unified national organization. The June 13 luncheon was emceed by Rosalie Polche, Secretary of UNWLA. Opening remarks were made by Lidia Magun, President of the New York Re gional Council which hosted the luncheon. Other UNWLA speakers included UNWLA President Iwanna Ro- zankowsky, vice president Lydia Hladly and Alexandra Riznyk, Honorary Member. Special guests at the luncheon were Nancy Barker, President of the National Council of Women of the U. S., who conveyed greetings to the group from NCW, and Merrinelle Sullivan, Executive Director of NCW. Re cently the UNWLA President was chosen to serve on the Executive Committee of NCW for a term from 1982 to 1984. Honored at the luncheon were women who had participated in the Congress of 1932. Commemorative plaques and citations were also awarded to UNWLA Branches which were formed before or during the Con gress and which still exist today. Entertainment was provided by Laryssa Magun- Huryn, soprano, who was accompanied on the piano by Taras Lewytsky. “THE NCW AND ICW AND OUR INVOLVEMENT”? The formal incorporation of the National Council of Women of the USA did not take place until 1888; however, the NCW of USA began its work on women’s rights in 1848 in Seneca Falls, N. Y. The International Council, a group represented by 73 countries, was founded in Washington DC under the initiative of the NCW-USA. The Ukrainian women became members of the Inter national Council at the Sixth Quinquennial Council Meeting in Oslo, Norway in 1920. Sofia Rusowa represented the Ukrainian women at that meeting. In 1925 the Seventh Quinquennial Council Meeting of the ICW took place in Washington DC. The Ukrainian women could not be members any longer because of a rule of the ICW: “In the absence of any responsible govern ment, that country could not be a member of ICW”. Ukraine being under foreign rule at that time could no longer be a member of ICW. The women that attended the Washington Council Meeting in 1925 were Hanna Chykalenko Keller, of ficial representative, Olena Lotocky, Julia Jarema and Osypa Jaremiwna, guest.
