Canada: Religious COs received more tolerant treatment than their non-religious colleagues.
: Compulsory military service had been in place since 1910. Those who refused were jailed. Exemption was available for some religious objectors, but all had to take non-combatant roles; refusers were jailed. Russia : A few members of certain sects were allowed to work in forestry or in army hospitals. Other COs were jailed, though some were released in 1917 after the revolution; others, however, were held indefinitely, and a few executed. Hungary : Members of the Nazarene sect were allowed to serve in the Medical Corps. All other pacifists were imprisoned, and some may have been executed.

Jamaica Plain Women Who Made History
By Susan Meyers
Wearing sturdy shoes and floppy sunhats, about sixty people accompanied historian Mary Smoyer this past Sunday on a 'round-the-town walking tour of women's history in Jamaica Plain.
The guided walk, sponsored by the Jamaica Plain Historical Society, emphasized a lot of "famous firsts:" first woman elected to Beacon Hill, first female M.I.T. student, and first woman publisher in the United States. Each woman called Jamaica Plain home for some part of her life between 1839 and 1959.
Marie Zakrewska
The first tour site was the home of Marie Zakrewska at 6 Peter Parley Road, a neatly painted white house one block off Washington Street. Smoyer said Zakrewska came to the United States from Germany in 1853 hoping to practice medicine. But when she graduated from Western Reserve Medical College in 1862, not a single hospital would hire her or even rent her office space. "Female doctors," Smoyer said, "were considered off the beaten track."
Zakrewska solved the problem by founding her own hospital. The New England Hospital for Women and Children, which hired only female doctors, served only female patients. The hospital later opened a nurse's training school and graduated America's first trained nurses.
Margaret Fuller
Margaret Fuller, the second famous Jamaica Plain woman on the tour, was also frustrated by the limits imposed on women. Tour assistant Emogene Gilman, standing in front of the Margaret Fuller School on Glen Road, described a brilliant-minded but "lopsided" young woman. Fuller, born in 1810, was an academic whiz with a great head on her shoulders but few domestic skills. She found herself starved for stimulating intellectual employment. Men were decidedly not interested in her.

International Women's Congress Focuses on Use of Theater to Resist OppressionFor Immediate Release BALTIMORE, MDThe 27th International Congress of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF) will highlight the use of theater in fighting oppression with Theatre of the Oppressed, a four-day workshop conducted by Brazilian theater director Augusto Boal. Scheduled prior to the Congress, the workshop will run from Wednesday, July 22, through Saturday, July 25, at Goucher College and the Sheraton Baltimore North hotel. The WILPF Congress, hosted by the college, will take place from Friday, July 24, through Friday, July 31, 1998. For more information about the workshop, call (410) 337-6045 or visit the website at http://www.goucher.edu/library/wilpf. Theatre of the Oppressed is a series of training workshops which uses three types of theater to focus on oppressive behavior and prevention. Developed by Boal during the 1950s and 1960s, Theatre of the Oppressed transforms theater into a dialogue between audience and stage, explores oppression with diverse groups of people and provides critical thinking mixed with interaction and fun. Participants learn to recognize various forms of oppression, develop responses, and resist and transcend the behavior. The three forms of theater used for peacefully resisting oppression are:
