Naëmah Beer-Hofmann (* 20.12.1898), daughter of Richard and Paula Beer-Hofmann (www.univie.ac.at/biografiA/daten/text/bio/beer-hof.htm) Anitta Müller-Cohen (* 6.6.1890): Nach Ausbruch des Ersten Weltkriegs gründete sie die „Soziale Hilfsgemeinschaft Anitta Müller". Im Rahmen dieser Organisation half sie in den folgenden Jahren Tausenden, vor allem jüdischen Flüchtlingen durch die Errichtung von Tee- und Suppenanstalten, Fürsorgeeinrichtungen für Mütter und Kinder, etc. Bald avancierte die „Soziale Hilfsgemeinschaft" zu einer der größten privaten jüdischen Hilfsorganisationen Wiens. In diesen Jahren wurde Anitta Müller-Cohen auch Zionistin, betätigte sich politisch und arbeitete als Journalistin Sie engagierte sich in der Jüdischnationalen Partei, war 1918/19 Abgeordnete zum Wiener Gemeinderat und schrieb zahlreiche Artikel in jüdischen sowie nichtjüdischen Zeitungen. Seit November 1918 arbeitete sie auch als Leiterin des Sozialressorts im „Jüdischen Nationalrat für Deutsch-Österreich", der sich als nationale Vertretungsbehörde aller Juden in Österreich verstand. Anitta Müller-Cohen organisierte im Rahmen des Jüdischen Nationalrates und ihrer Sozialen Hilfsgemeinschaft umfangreiche Hilfstätigkeiten. So arbeitete sie auch mit dem American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee zusammen

A Miss Effie Loader, graduate of the University of Kansas, was a parole officer in Kansas in the 1910s, connected to the Girls' Industrial School at Beloit. That might explain her star-shaped badge in this portrait. In the 1930s she shows up as Superintendent of the State Orphans' Home in Atchison. She's also mentioned in this article as a founder of the Clay Center Carnegie Library in Kansas. claycenter.mykansaslibrary.org/?page_id=26

"The Kansas Senate today has a woman Sergeant-at-Arms for the first time in its history. She Is Miss Effie Loader. Lieutenant Governor W. Y. (William Yoast) Morgan appointed her In recognition of his women constituents." — The Washington [DC] Herald, January 17, 1915.

Oh cool, I was thinking she must have done something more than run a Kansas reform school to make the Bain Service. Thanks!

I 'dunno if there's any real difference between running a reform school and trying to keep order in a state legislature. Maybe the hooligans are older in one than in the other.
