Title
Daniel Mannix, the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Melbourne, said at a Sydney Conference in 1928 'What Catholic women cannot do, cannot be done!' In South Australia, this statement has been proven by the activities of the Catholic Women's League of South Australia Inc (CWL). This article on the service and social role of the League, by Miss Patricia Mahar, is based on the history of the CWL as recorded by the late Mrs N M (Nell) Kain, who was the S A President in 1968-79, National President CWL Australia 1976-78, and Vice-President of the ACW National Committee in 1974-75
