Neues Deutschland, 25 June 1957, p. 5: ADN/ND report 'Frauen bereiten Weltkongreß vor' on the WIDF council session in Helsinki (270 delegates, 46 countries; president Eugénie Cotton). Indonesia appears once: women from Indonesia and other countries reported on their work, difficulties and successes. No name is given and Gerwani is not mentioned. A separate item on the Jakarta local election (Masjumi ahead of the Communist Party) is not about women.

Neues Deutschland, 25 Juni 1957, hlm. 5: laporan ADN/ND 'Frauen bereiten Weltkongreß vor' tentang sidang dewan WIDF di Helsinki (270 delegasi dari 46 negara; presiden Eugénie Cotton). Indonesia disebut sekali: perempuan dari Indonesia dan negara lain melaporkan kerja, kesulitan, dan keberhasilan mereka. Tidak ada nama dan Gerwani tidak disebut. Berita terpisah tentang pemilihan lokal Jakarta (Masyumi unggul atas Partai Komunis) tidak menyangkut perempuan.

“Frauen aus Norwegen, Rumänien, Ceylon, Argentinien, Albanien, Tunesien, China, Jordanien, dem Senegal, Indonesien, Italien, Österreich und anderen Ländern berichteten über ihre Arbeit, ihre Schwierigkeiten und ihre Erfolge.”
