A MESSAGE FROM THE NATIONAL PRESIDENT

Greetings: Many recent and significant developments have transpired since our last opportunity to share our thoughts, comments and observations. Special attention has been given to many issues and concerns, and you'll find that to be to each members benefit. The national executive board met February 14-16, and took decided actions that will ultimately serve to promote our grand traditions of service to our sisterhood in particular, with detailed planning for national involvement in several other arenas. The National Theme: "GREATER COMMITMENT - GREATER INVOLVEMENT PROVIDING NEW APPROACHES TO COMMUNITY OUTREACH SERVICE", is proving to be a wonderful tool for creative implementation. Chapters are communicating great excitement and activity as they execute their programs. This participation is not isolated nor sporatic. I am overwhelmingly pleased by the positive reports that have come to this office. Stork's Nests continue to develop across the country. They are positive proof of our deep commitment to the quality of life for everyone, but most expecially, a quality of life which often escapes minorities. We urge every chapter to explore the possibility of organizing a Stork's Nest for the welfare of your total community. It is an investment in the future, and is proof of our leadership. We willingly adopt and earnestly support International Women's Year 19 75. We, at the national level, are determined to do all in our power to make International Women's Year significant and important. We must at all levels be fully aware of the objectives, and fundamental aims and goals of /WY. The principle of equality between men and women must become a universal reality. The major obstacles confronting all women, be they social, economic or political in nature, affect each ofus. The question of human dignity is brought ail too clearly into focus where women are concerned, since we minority women have suffered far too many indignities for so long, our complete involvement is essential. I personally call upon each member of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority to strengthen the mission of women in every positive and effective manner you can summon. Our role as a Community Conscious - Action Oriented Organization will be heightened, and perpetuated by our total sensitivity, our involvement, and the catalystic force we ultimately become. We must move into every area that affords growth and participation on our part as well as others. We look forward to seeing you at the various Regional Conferences scheduled around the country, but most especially at our Boule' 1976. Plan to attend. You will be extremely pleased over the loving, caring, and exciting planning undertaken in your behalf Zeta is emerging and growing! You have a marvelous opportunity to make significant contributions! May I entreat and entice you to expand with us?

Great er /11110/11emen t! I.

The theme serving as a catalyst for our program development provides many outlets for each chapter and each Soror to become completely involved in her community. Involvement without a true commitment is futile. We must believe that the service we render is valid and will ultimately profit tho e being served. Zetas must be ever mindful of our goals and objectives as set forth by our Founders. Our programs must reflect the changing world we live in, and provide some credible answers to rne nancing problems. You will find enough flexibility contained within the Program Projections to meet your local, state, regional and national needs. We as an organization can no longer rely on our past deeds or be swayed by emotion. We must forge ahead and undertake projects that require tenacity, foresight and courage. The possibilities are enormous, the end results quite exciting, and our existence will be greatly appreciated by all who are served. I implore each or you to work toward making thi program profitable for your communities and yourselves. Remember Zeta is a Community Conscious-Action Oriented Organization ..t\ren't you glad you belong!

TO: ALL ZETAS, All Chapters

Greetings, At what is now very nearly the end of this Sorority Year, I sincerely hope that you have had a great year ZET ALLY and personally. You have not had direct communications from this office mainly because things are somewhat in limbo until we delineate the duties and responsibilities of the National Second Anti-Basileus and the newly voted ZETA National Education Foundation. A meeting is scheduled in July to clarify this matter following which you will be fully informed, and this office will proceed with a comprehensive program ... jointly with the Foundation, or according to the delineation. In the meantime, I am receiving and processing applications for National Scholarships. The procedure for this is found in the HANDBOOK, 1972 edition, on pages 56-57. Please note that scholarships are not available for summer sessions. It is my hope that each chapter gave as much as possible to Scholarships and that you are making Scholarships a major item in your annual budgets in order to assist as many deserving students as possible to obtain a higher education. That's the Zeta way! As you are aware, each region was asked to establish a $600.00 Scholarship on an annual ba is to pay the cost of one year of college for an African Student. I am sure your Regional Directors are working with you to make this an accomplished fact. This office would appreciate hearing about any plan or scheme that's getting the job done ... so that, with your permission, we might share your ingenuity with others. Best wishes for both an invigorating and relaxing summer! Sisterly,

MARJORIE H. ELLIS Chairman, Educational Service and Scholarship Fund

WHAT ABOUT ZETA'S FOUNDATION? In 1920 when we were [ou ncled by l'ivc outstanding young ladies Sorors Stcmons, Faithful, Goings, Neal and Watts it was unusual ror Black women to gain 8 college education and it was even 1110 re rare for them Lo pu rsuc a grad ua Le degree. Women were not welcome in academic halls or some or our nation' leading institutions or high learning and were not given consideration for financial aid. It is not surprising, therefore, that one of the early programs or Zeta Phi Beta Sorority was the establishment or a scholarship lu nd. l n mak i ng her report to the Bou le, the outgoing Second Anti-Basilcus, Soror Jessie Arrest, reported that a sum or approximately $11,000 was g r an tcd to deserving sorors in the [orm of scholarship and fellowship grants for 1972-74 l'rorn national funds. More than $30,000.00 was awarded by chapters in other grants; totalling nearly $50,000.00. ln addition to the expenditures tor scholarships and other grants, the sorority has historically been involved in worthwhile social and civic projects. Among tile many national projects sponsored by the sorority has been the Juvenile Delinquency project for which we were cited by the Attorney General or the USA; Foster Horne Care in which we encouraged more than 400 children to be helped; Vocational Guidance Clinics, Tinker Shops, and our current pl"Ogn.1111 STORK'S Nl::ST. We have likewise developed a six-point African project jointly sponsored by the chapters in America and Africa. In such a way, belier understanding has been developed between the two c ntincnts. Because of this long-term interest and financial involvement in such undertakings, it becomes manditory that Zeta Phi Beta cstabli: h a separate foundation to c ntinuc and expand its efforts in these areas. It is ho peel that such expansion w i 11 provide an opportunity for the lollowing kinds or activities: undergraduate scholarships [or women, graduate fc l l o w s h i p s fo r women, special educational awards and programs, research projects (especially in areas relating to Blacks and Third World Peoples), demonstration and pilot projects and basic studies and publications.

ZETA PHI BETA SORORITY EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION Deborah Partridge Wolfe

Temporary Chairperson Zeta Phi Beta Sorority voted to establish Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Educational Foundation al the 54th Anniversary Boule', and elected it. first Board or Directors. Those elected wer ': Pasl Grand Basilci, . Evelyn cwis, Lullclia W. Harrison, Deborah P.

WHAT IS A

OUNDATION?

f·ou11dations arc a t ra d i t ional way or benefaction that is almost as old as civilization itself, for the first known one was established by Plato. l l o w appropriate it is, then, that a Creek-letter organization loundcd on the principles or sch larship, service and sisterly love should establish such an instilulion. Andrew Carcngic and John D. Rockefeller early in the 20th century sought to expand use or their funds in a creative search for solutions to human problems through the establishment or personal foundations. early every private Black college has bcncfittcd from their philanthropy ,JS well as the generosity or other individuals and foundutious dedicated to tile development or the d i sa d v a n raged. Tile Federal Government has encouraged private initiative in good works, and tax c x c m p t i on has been one or the chic!' instruntcn tx for accomplishing this. Today tax exempt round,1tio11s in our country have assets or over 'LS billion annually.

WHY ESTABLISH A SEPARATE EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION? There arc three major reasons f the Educational Foundation: I.

Zeta Phi Beta needs a loundation r r the accomplishment or many of its objectives as st a led previously. Zeta Phi Beta needs to separate the socially-useful and acceptable projects from the on-going activities C the sorority in

order to obtain tax-exempt status (50l(c) (3).* (*See the Boule Workshop Guidebook for details regarding this matter. Zeta Phi Beta Educational Foundation will be of tremendous advantage financially as the vehicle through which grants from outside sources may be funneled and member contribution received.

There are many other advantages for the establishment of such a foundation. The Educational Foundation may serve as custodian and administrator of the Zeta Headquarters and thereby be exempt from the District of Columbia real estate tax.

WHAT CAN YOU DO? At the July Boule, through my efforts as chairperson, more than $6,000.00 was collected to add to the $10,092.00 in the Scholarship Account as the seed money for the Educational Foundation. *Maybe you were among those who gave at that time. lf not, NOW IS THE TIME FOR YOU TO GIVE. There ia a place for everyone! WE NEED YOU! WE NEED YOUR FUNDS! WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT! WE NEED YOUR IDEAS! GIVE! GIVE! GIVE! LEARN WHAT IS MEANT WHEN THE MASTER SAID: "God lovcth a cheerful giver."

and band, and a fine newspaper. Mrs. Curry feels that we have teachers and students who are "just great." Mrs. Curry is the mother of two sons and has been happily married for thirty years.

CURRY NAMED PRINCIPAL Mrs. Ernestine D. Curry, newly-appointed principal of Wendell Phillips High School, feels that her being assigned to Phillips is "another cha1lenge" in the life of a principal. Mr . Curry's teaching career dates back to 1941, when she first started teaching in the Chicago Public School System. Some of the schools at which she has taught are located on both the North and West sides of Chicago. These schools include the Tennyson and the Smith schools on the Westside, and the Jenner school, located on the Northside. Mrs. Curry was later transferred to Sexton Elementary School, where she worked for fifteen years as a teacher before becoming principal of the Sherwood School in 1965. In 1969, she became principal of Oliver Wendell Holmes ·lementary, where she remained until being a signed to Phillips. Her educational background is that of earning a bachelor's degree from Chicago Teacher's College, a master's degree from Northwestern University and a second master's degree from Chcago Teachers College. She is currently the first vice-president of the Chicago Pr i n cipal's Association. Iler ideas and improvements for Phillips arc: I) To get all of the students to produce and carry an l.D. card with them at all times; 2) To make sure we have the proper security for the students and for the taff; 3) To get all of the tu den ts out of the hall and in to th cir classes where they can be taught. 1r this procedure is ucccssful, then the students will have a better chance or improving their academic ability. Mrs. Curry feels that our schoo I has a very good staff, including ad min istra tors, teachers, and stud en ts. She al wishes to thank the school for the warm reception she received upon first corning to Phillips. Mrs. Curry's life outside of an educator include being a Sunday School teacher, director or Christian •ducation for her church, organist for the senior church choir, and various other activities such as reading and attending plays. lier comment about Phillips arc: that we have great football and basketball teams. a very good chorus

A NOTE OF CLARIFICATION Many questions have arisen from several chapters throughout the country expressing concern over the newly launched Health Education Project of our Sister Organization in Grcekdorn, Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc.

If an opportunity presents itself where both organizations can be of service to one another, then it is incumbent upon us to be or assistance. Remember, we arc solely interested in fostering sound health for everyone, and being or service to all human beings.

"RELIGION IS LIFE" A Portrait of Rev. Barbara King "Religion is life, life is religion," was the quote made by the Rev. Barbara Lewis King, a workshop leader recently for the Black Women's International Conference held in Atlanta, Georgia. Thirty-odd women, representing Methodist to Muslim, from housewives to writers, and TV personalities to economist, sat almost spell-bound as the minister-social worker expounded on the impact of religion upon ones personal life for the Workshop - Religion and the Professional. Rev. King, a native of Houston, Texas received her training at Southern University and graduate training from the Atlanta University School of Social Work. Her religious experiences is a mixture of Baptist philosophy received at the Baptist Missionary Training School, Chicago, and has done studies toward a Ph. D. degree at University of Chicago. She more recently has adopted the dogma of the New Thought Ministry as the result of personal fulfillment and involvement of the Unity Foundation for Better Living Incorporated, and New Thought Alliance. The 6' 5" woman of great bearing was ordained in 1971, and later confirmed in ordaination through the Unity Foundation. The tenets of the New Thought Ministry is not new but is rather a simplification of what Je u preached while upon the earth: the person must develop a good self-image of oneself which comes from within. It is based upon ones right relationship with the Divine Creator, not only as a human being, but a a spiritual being, as well as a way of life. Man's mind is viewed as the "Connecting link" of God. It is necessary that man places his piritual self in harmony with his concious self in order to have this connection with God. The practical approach toward thinking and being, in Rev. Kings own word ha been responsible for the succe, e of she and other parishioner . Of that number, one was a fireman, another a mortgage broker and a third a psychologist she believed all three lacked something they were seeking wanting to be able to use their talents more effectively for God. However, should these per ons feel they have not

found what they were searching upon coming to Hillside Chapel and Truth Center must feel free to move on! Barbara puts great emphasis upon the fact that an individual must be allowed to seek God on their own level of conscious. She believes it takes hand clapping, lively music, verbal amens for some, quiet moments of reflection and inner seeking yet for others. She feels the greatest devise factor has been one class of persons trying to fit all persons into a particular religious life style. She believes one must be allowed to seek, experience various religious styles until he finds one that offers greatest inner peace. Whatever it is she and her congregation subscribes to, it is working! Barbara attributes her success to the Divine Creator. When asked how did she get into this particular belief her answer was that she had "felt a need for a more practical kind of spiritual life . " Soror King's belief in the Providence of God has led her to a most beautiful area of Cascade Road in Atlanta, Georgia, where she and her congregation have purchased what is now called The Hillside Chapel and Truth Center located at 2450 Cascade Road, Atlanta, Georgia. The structure cost $200,000 and ha six rolling acres of valuable land besides the area on which the edifice is located. There is a sanctuary that eats 250 parishoners, educational unit with 12 clas rooms and a large multi-purpose center. The educational center now houses a school, headed by an Espiscopalian Congregation across the street. Soror King is assisted by Rev. Bernard arnctt, the only black reporter for the Wall Street Journal in the south. Many of the parishoners are highly intellectual, "who have tried other churches, but are still searching. These are persons according to Rev. King, who know God is, but want to be able to feel that I-le is!" Rev. King admits when asked, how many persons do you feel arc coming because you arc a woman minister, new church, or out of curiosity, again, l those who arc truly sincere? l ler reply was "Last Sunday fifteen people joined our church!" 14

Arguments against the ERA can be easily dismissed. "Stop ERA" boosters claim that ERA will make American society a uni-sex society. They predict the death of the family and a prevalance of male-female restrooms, dormitories and the like. When public restrooms were separated, or rather segregated for men, women and 'colored people,' the cry to preserve the sacredness of black feminity then was too soft to be heard by those who scream to the heavens now about protecting the white status quo. However, anyone who questions the good of ERA for these reasons should be reminded that such matters are clearly within the realm of personal privacy, a fundamental right that no constitutional amendment can tamper with. Another predominant argument against ERA lies in the possibility that women would be draft-eligible once ERA is ratified. With an all-volunteer army, draft eligibility ceases to be a reason to oppose ERA. Suppose a national emergencey arose that required the reinstatement of the draft. ERA introduces nothing new in this field. Should there be another draft, the same provisions for family hardship exemptions would apply to draft-eligible women. The chances of a woman being sent to a front, unless she so requests, are slim. Furthermore, the military offers many benefits to those who have served. These are benefits that would augment a woman's life after service, e.g., additional points on Civil Service exams, and educational assistance. I also believe that exclusion from military service denies women an important responsibility of citizenship. No constitutional amendment can force a woman to work against her will. Fears that a woman will have to work after a divorce or desertion, sacrificing alimony and child-support payments, are largely unfounded. The awarding of alimony is not a common practice, and support is generally so minimal that the mother provides more than half the amount needed to support a child after divorce. The ratification of the ERA should result in a more equitable means of marriage dissolution, to the benefit of the woman involved.

THE EQUAL RIGHTS AMENDMENT: MY PERSPECTIVE

State Repre entative Julia Carson Indiana General Assembly A a black female state legislator in a State that has not ratified the Equal Rights Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, I am frequently asked if 1 need this proposed 27th Constitutional Amendment. I reply, yes. I need the ERA. Women and Men need the ERA most emphatically yes, black women need the ERA. I am disturbed, but not surprised by the controversy surrounding this plainly worded amendment which merely guarantees simple justice under the law regardless of sex. or course in Indiana, a rightist group has adamantly opposed the ERA and has vigorously lobbied against it. However, I am much too familiar with the outragious tactics employed by those who resist any departure from the norm those who philosophically arc opposed to any approach toward human equality. The opposition is an outgrowth or white male supremacy. During my years in the Indiana House of Repre cntativcs, I have worked for the ratification or the 27th Amendment. Twice I have been instrumental in having the Indiana House adopt a ratification re olution, only to sec our counterpart body, the State Senate, block such legislation. I chaired the Bouse ornmittec which held public hearings on •RA and endured insulting and demeaning slogans from those who suggested that l 'I eave well enough alone.' I know the need for ERA and understand the ignificancc it will bring to people in all walks or life, lam frustrated by the emotional misrepresentation or the facts about the Amendment. Many opponents of ERA forecast doomsday if it is ratified. They ignore the gloomy situation that prompted the legislation.

Over forty percent (40%) of the female population works now. The percentage is increasing. Many women work because they want to, and many more because they must. Married women constitute a majority of the female work force, and fifty-six percent (56%) of all married black women work to help support their families. These arc the women who have the most to gain from ERA. They are also the women who have sacrificed the most without ERA. If so many women have found jobs, why do women workers need ERA? The obvious answer is that ERA is needed to IS

assure job equality. The truth is, that more women are working today, than ever, yet women workers are being denied full equality and opportunity in em p Io yment. Despite recent judicial victories asserting the precedent of "equal pay for equal work" under the 1964 Civil Rights Act provisions, women remain second-class citizens on the job, especially black women. Those who fear the impact of the ERA on family life overlook the real

state of Indiana is a big employer. It is also a big discriminator. At first glance, state employment figures indicate equality in hiring. Nearly 10,000 men are employed by the state; 9,000 women are on the state payroll. But, of these 9,000 women, more than 7,000 are employed in paraprofessional or clerical jobs, at a salary level of aroung $6,000 a year. Men outnumber women at top paying state jobs nearly ten to one, despite the fact that an equal number of men and women are state employees. What can ERA do to remedy the continuing effects of discrimination? First, it will be used as the sole legal foundation is cases charging sex discrimination. As more women se k legal recourse, the courts need a clear-cut precedent on which to base their decisions. The adoption of the ERA will clarify to employers and the unequivocable commitment to equality. Many employers, including the state of Indiana, have been lax in hiring and promoting women under present employment guidelines. Too often Black women, who must work to live, bear the burden of employers' lackadaisical hiring policies. ERA is essential to remedy this situation. Businesses will open their doors to more women if they know that ERA mandates fair hiring. Many people criticize ERA by saying that it i little more than a symbol. Although I am convinced of the sub tantive changes that ERA will bring, there is nothing wrong in viewing ERA as a symbol. ERA, when adopted, will convince women that they have the legal, as well a the moral right to expect as much from this society a men do. ERA cannot legislate a change in attitudes of the American people, but it can a sure an atmo pherc where women are given a fair choice and a chance to prove that they are equal. To defeat ERA, in my opinion, would defeat this premise. During legislators tenure in office, ERA has become an emotional political is ue. This is unfortunate because the impact of ERA is n ither political nor emotional. The qual Rights Amendment guarantees that all American be given rights that are unalienable. Is thi too much to a k for?

needs of women who must work to support or help sustain their families. Many women falling into this category who have suffered the sting of discrimination far too long are Black. According to 1970 Censu information, one-half of all employed women worked in just seventeen occupation while a comparable percentage of men were employed in sixty-three professions. Although these statistics do not prove that women are denied entry into some jobs, it certainly appears that this is the case. Most women who are professionals teach. Teaching has long been a traditional women's field, expecially at the elementary level. Despite the abundance of qualified female educators, it is rare indeed to find them in the more prestigious position of principal or superintendent. For instance, we in Indiana, have just one woman principal in a public high school and we don't have one female superintendant in over 300 school corporations in the State! A majority of women are still employed in clerical/service areas of the job market. Over half of the black female work force began their post-school careers in dome tic or ome other service-related field. Job mobility is a fair indicator of progress in gaining equal job opportunity. Have women who have begun their careers in the lower job classification moved upward? o, over the course of their career , more women are actually downward than upward in their job . A woman beginning a career, will finish at a lower position. Women still earn just over half of what their male counterparts earn. Our aspirations and potential do equal that of men, but our progr s has been impeded. Employment ta tistics verify the need for concerted affirmative action. Those legislators who have oppo ed ERA in Indiana deny the need for the amendment. They say that ERA will remove the dignity from the role of women. The state enate this e ion pas ed a o-called "state equal opportunity amendment" which would have given women equality under the law, except in cases where women are "protected" by legi lation. They passed this at the ame time that they refused to even end the federal ER to the Senate floor for a vote! Their ubstitute legislation is little more than a protection of the status quo in [ndiana. And upon examination, i found to be re pre en tat ion of di crimination. The

Clark College, in cooperation with the Atlanta University Center sponsored the "Black Women's International Conference: Priorities and Directives," April 9-1 1, at the Marriott Motor Hotel in Atlanta, Georgia. Doris Wright stated that "Thi conference will depart from the rhetoric-oriented conferences of the past. The purview of this conference necessitate a variety of perspective that transcend social and cultural boundarie ." Miss Wright, a enior, majoring in Political Science, is Director of this conference; when asked how did the idea of this conference come about, she was quick to add that "for the past three (3) years, I have been going to conferences concerning women. They have had large numbers of women participants and fantastic resource people but for some reason they (sponsor of conferences) have had a lack of direction or concrete purpose. lt seems that they were there just for dialogue. Our conference will have exchange of ideas and interaction, but our main focus will be the presentation of data and alter native data pools."

JOT A ZETA-CARING AND SHARING Iota Zeta Chapter in Indianapolis, has been bu y this last year displaying a great concern for the needs of the community, with special emphasis on youth. Two service projects are presently in operation. One is our "Stork's Nest," which was opened in Indianapolis in J une I 974 and is seving a large clicn tcle. The other, is our Central State Hospital project, which supplies birthday cakes and gift to young mental patient . As we visit the c children and prepare parties for them, giving our time and

love, prosperity is truly ours. When we see little faces light and lips that can perhaps utter no comprehensive sound spread into a friendly smile, our hearts are gladdened. That same joy is felt when a needy expectant mother visits Stork's Nest, receives her layette items, smiles warmly, and thanks us. These are the times when Iota Zetas know they have answered God's call to share what He has given and care for the uncared-for.

Sorer Hazel Simmons assists in opening Psi Zeta Chapter's tork's nest, while Chairperson Alberta Thomas, scaled, shows Sorors Alma Parish and Alice Jacquet forms that are lo be u ed by the patient-customers, The Stork's nest, the third to open, is located at St. Peter Presbyterian Church, -ort Worth, exas: Soror Eloise W. Pyle serves as Basilcus of the chapter.

PUBLIC RELATIONS DEPARTMENT NATIONAL FOUNDATION-MARCH OF DIMES

THEY TALKED about "Ecology of the Unborn: Maternal and Infant Health." That was the subject of a workshop when the Women's Auxiliary to the National Medical Association met recently in ew York City. Physicians and health professionals discussed improving delivery of these medical services, particularly among the nation' black population. The meeting, co-spon ored by The National Foundation-March of Dimes, heard (1. to r.) Janice Kissner, Director of Community Affairs for the Foundation; Dr. Ezra Davidson, Chairman, Department of Obstetric and Gynecology, at Martin Luther King Jr. Hospital, in Los Angeles; Dr. Effie 0. Ellis, Assistant to the Executive Director, American Medical A sociation, and Lullelia W. Harrison, March of Dimes Volunteer Advisor from Hou ton. Mrs. Kisner was honored with the WA-NMA President's Plaque for arranging the program.

A PACE-SETTING PATTERN Stork's Nest, the PNC community service project of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, has set standards for efficient organization, administration, and rapid growth. Now four years old, this project has inspired the interest, affection, and resp ct of the busines and professional women who make up Zeta's nationwide membership. And, in some areas, Stork's Nests are administered by the Arnicae, Zeta's auxiliary groups. Stork's Nests are redistribution centers for maternal and infant needs. All items arc donated by private citizen's or community-minded businesses ( uch as d i a p c r companies or department stores who give display samples and unclaimed items). Zeta member see to it that every article is clean and in good condition before making it available to patient-cu tomer . Women who come to Stork's Nests are referred by a hospital PNC clinic or neighborhood health center. The ability to pay is determined by the referral source. Stork's Nests arc localed right in the communities they serve. Space is given by churches, businessmen, and private citizens. Nests arc always attractive and bright, often thanks to the volunteer efforts of Zeta husbands, children, friends, and relatives. They pitch in to paint, poli h, and set up facilities. As of December, 1974, 27 Stork's Nests had sprouted in every part of the country, from major metropolitan areas to rural communities.
