The caption on this glass negative points to the Women of World Ct. League, most likely shorthand for the Women's World Court League, an American group that campaigned in the 1920s for the United States to join the Permanent Court of International Justice, the World Court created under the League of Nations. The record gives no date, and the title comes from information the Bain News Service recorded on the negative or its caption card, so the exact occasion remains unconfirmed. The Bain agency sent news photographs to newspapers, and its glass plates document many public campaigns of the period, showing how organized groups used pictures to draw attention to political causes.
