After the Conference on the Cause and Cure of War was established,
she aided in forming the Peace Conference, which now (1941)
includes forty-one affiliated men's and women's organizations.
Together, the Conference on the Cause and Cure of War and the
Peace Conference represent a large section of the peace sentiment
in the country. When the second world war broke out, it was proposed
to reorganize the National Committee on the Cause and Cure
of War on a somewhat different basis, a proposal now under consideration.

Mrs. Catt has toured all the continents except Australia, and has
been honored by many countries. In 1922, she addressed the German
Reichstag. When the International Alliance for Suffrage and Equal
Citizenship met in Istanbul in 1935, the Turkish Government issued
a postage stamp carrying her portrait as founder of the Alliance.
She has received many honors in her own country. The degree of
Doctor of Laws has been conferred on her by the University of
Wyoming, Iowa State College, Smith College, and Moravian College
for Women. In 1930, she received the award of $5,000 for eminent
achievement from the Pictorial Review magazine. In 1933, she was
awarded the American Hebrew gold medal for her national petition
of protest of American non-Jewish women against the German
government's atrocities inflicted upon the Jews. In 1936, when her
fiftieth anniversary as suffragist and pacifist was being celebrated,
she was escorted to the White House by the presidents of
many national women's organizations, where she was received by
President and Mrs. Roosevelt and given a congratulatory letter by
the President.

In 1939, there was a public luncheon in New York in celebration of
the old leader's eightieth birthday.

The last big undertaking of her career was the Woman's Centennial

Social Sciences for outstanding public service, Mr. Wendell Willkie
getting a similar medal on the same occasion; the Chi Omega gold
medal award for eminent achievement, 1941, presented at the White
House; the Scroll of Honor presented by the General Federation of
Women's Clubs at the Atlantic City convention, 1941.
