 * Symbol question.svg detailed article on few but good sources. If you have more, you are welcome, but it's fine if not. I didn't get the idea "first attempt at a world government", perhaps pipe-link as in the article? Should it be "co-founded"? I would perhaps be even more interested in Women's International League for Peace and Freedom as early as 1915. - In the article, last sentence, I find "Lola's death" with just her first name a bit surprising, could be "her death", or a quote from someone who speaks of her by first name. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:27, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Perhaps Teemu08 might find these useful:
 * Pg 44 Lawrence S Wittner's The Struggle Against the Bomb
 * Pg 627 Encyclopedia of Women Social Reformers
 * PG 105 Warren F. Kuehl's Keeping the covenant: American internationalists and the League of Nations

 * Thanks for the sources, Maile. When I get a chance, I will incorporate them into the article. I changed the last line of the death section and changed the blurb to co-founded. I appreciate the esoteric nature of setting up the first organization to create a world government, and would be fine if the blurb read something like "co-founded the Campaign for World Government."
