OBITUARY: Miss Chamberlain
Miss Beatrice Chamberlain, eldest daughter of the late Mr. Joseph Chamberlain and sister of Mr. Austen Chamberlain, died at her house in London on Monday night. She was taken ill with influenza on Tuesday last week, and was thought to be recovering until pneumonia supervened.
Miss Chamberlain was well known in Birmingham and the Midlands for her social and charitable work. She was also keenly interested in politics. When her brother, Mr. Austen Chamberlain, was member for East Worcestershire she took an active part in the organization of the women workers, and on the fusion of the two groups of the Unionist Party in Birmingham she strongly advocated the proper representation of women on the Executive Committee and was herself one of the first elected members. During the war period she assisted the Lady Mayoress in the organization of the scheme for providing parcels of food and clothing for prisoners of war, and was an earnest worker on behalf of the Red Cross. Miss Chamberlain’s organizing ability was recognized in London, and last May she was coopted as one of the seven ladies to serve on the Luxury Duty Committee.
