Women are Demanding a Ban on Atomic Weapons (WIDF, 1954)
WIDF 1954 article compiling women's campaigns against atomic and hydrogen bombs after Bikini, with excerpts from Eugénie Cotton and the WIDF Executive appeal (Geneva). Countries covered include Britain, US, Japan, Germany, India; the Indonesia entry apparently refers to a national women's congress of 349 delegates demanding a ban, matching the Gerwis congress, though the organisation is not clearly named.
