Endorsements of the vote taken by the board of directors of the National Council of Women to ally itself with religious bodies working toward the elimination of objectionable films were being received all day Friday at the offices of the Council located at 625 Madison avenue.

From all 200 sections of the country where there are branches of the Council came letters and telegrams of congratulation, which pledged the support of the 40,000 women which constitute the body to the campaign.

Among the leading executives and members of the board of directors who sent messages were: Mrs. Herman B. Levine, Jersey City, N. J.; Mrs. Leo L. Half, Pittsburgh; Mrs. Charles Reichenbaum, Milwaukee; Mrs. M. H. Whitman, Boston; Mrs. Charles M. Stern, San Francisco; Mrs. L. H.
