NOTED WOMEN HAVE ACHIEVED BOTH CAREER AND MOTHERHOOD British Examples as Evidence for Afirma- tive Side of Question Cited at Amsterdam By the Associated Press. Whether women can combine a pro- fessional career with the duties of wife and mother has been a mogt question in London since the learne women, chiefly single, gave the ball another sprightly fling at the Univer- sity Wofnei's, Conterende” in” Amster- dam, - c, . memL Oppénents +of - women - entering the learried professions .in .the . Ald-fash- fonied days used'to argue tha. neither the.brains nor-the bodies cf women were.equalto the sfrain. .’But it- has been brought :but in England that nearly aii-medical women appear to have.found ne difficulty in-combining thelr exacting professions. With mar- riage amd* motherhood:, * Women of science, however, are too sclentific to tk much of matrimony. This was brought home at Oxford dur- ing the meeting of the British Asso- ciaton, there being but one or two married women who participated in the discussions relating to science. View of Woman Doctor. Dr. Mary Scharlieb, dean of British women, considers that mar- nd motherhood are great assets 's Dr. Scharlieb, “have firsthand knowledge of the physiology and psychology of women such as no other doctor can possess.” . Scharlieb is herselt a notable example, She married a barrister early in her career and her three chil- dren achieved good positions—one as a schoolmaster, the second as a medical practitioner and the third as a medical woman. She is no exceptton. Other woman doctors in Harley street are wives and mothers. Mme. Cure is a brilliant exception to the women of sclence whose mar- riage stimulated her studies and led to the discovery of radium. With the great French woman may be classed the late Lady Huggins, whose youth- ful interest in the stars developed into a_partnership in study and discovery after her marriage to the great astronomer, Sir Willlam Huggins. The woman novelist is not depend- ent on marital experience in portray- ing passion. Intuition taught Jane Austin the secrets of the heart, as did the three Bronte sisters, if Charlotte's brief year of married life, during which she undoubtedly was handi- capped by her clerical husband and ceased to write, i3 excepted. He Helped Her Writing. George Eliot's genius required the stimulus of experience. She might have remained a highbrow spinster writing articles for the reviews, if she had not the stimulating companion- ship of George Henry Lewis. Prompt- ed by him she leaped into fame with falso thinks -that really understand life until she hgs Conference. “Adam Bede.” In her second husband, Mr. Cross, she again found an invigor- ating companion. Mrs. Flora Annie Steel, dean of British woman novelists, has combined literature and the domesticities in a remarkable manner. Marriage made her a.novelist. She says that she has never felt that her worth suffered from ‘marriage and motherhood, and “no woman can borne ‘children.” Still, she adds. “for really profes- | sional women I rather doubt the.wis- dom of motherhood.” : Actress Rejoices in Family. Actresses nearly all marry.- Miss Sybil Thorndike attributes her success to the tutelage and aid of her husband, Lewis Casson. She rejoices, too, as the mother of four children, two boys and two giris. They have helped her to a realization of the frenzy of out- raged wifehood and motherhood in her portrayal of “Medea,” ‘Dame Clara Butt and Mrs. Kinerley Mumford prove that marriage is no deterrent in the musical profession. Asked if she felt her husband and children to be a hinderance to her work, Dame Clara laughed at the suggestion. As a Politician. The newest profession for women, that of M. P., has an interesting ex- ample In Lady Astor of married part- nership in politics, Lady Astor has #aid that “if it had not leen for my husband I would never have entered Parliament.” S ‘When succession to his title com- pelled Lord Astor to leave the Com- mons for the Lords, he, though “the most domestic creature alfve,” urged his wife to contest his old seat at Plymouth so that she might work in Parllament for the special reforms dear to them both. “Do my children look neglected?"” ‘Lady Astor often asked, “because I am trying to promote better laws for other people's children?” . Active in Religion. Mrs. Louise Creighton, widow of the late Bishop of London, is an out- standing example of a woman tre- mendously active all her married life in parochial and national church or- ganizations, a public speaker, the author of many books, and the mother of seven children. Mrs. Creighton accomplished the herculean task of making both ends meet in the manhgement of Fulham Palace when her husband was Bishop of London. Headmistresses and woman college professors seem the class least able l? unite marriage with their profes- sion. DENIES SPECULATING IN FUTURES MARKETS President of Armour Grain Com- pany Replies to Charges Made by Secretary Jardine. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, September 28.—J. W. Kellog, president of Armour Grain Co., in connection with the announcement in press dispatches from Washington today that Secretary Jardine had ordered a public hearing of charges inst the company, issued the fol- ing statement: “We have received notice of charges filed against us by Secretary of Agri- culture Jardine under the grain fu- tures act in connection with the move- ment last April of about 5.000 bushels of rye from one elevator to another. “Similar charges were recently the subject of exhaustive inquiry by com- mittees and by the board of directors of the Chicago Board of Trade, and, after searching inquiry and trial by the board of directors, we were exon- erated. Charges of market manipu- lation have apparently also resulted from this movement of 5,000 bushels of rye in stock. “Armour Grain Co., however, does ‘not speculate in the futures markets— using the markets only as hedgers and merchandisers of cash grain. The officials and personnel of Armour | Grain Co. have not at any time any interest in the grain markets.” SALE OF TWO PAPERS IS BELIEVED PENDING $5,000,000 Munsey Publications May Be BO\IghE by New York Editors.

Baltimore & Ohio STEINNORTHWEST FORCANP URGED Committee Asked to Study Area Near Massachusetts and Wisconsin Avenues. The committee investigating the transportation problems of Washing- ton under the direction of the Ni tional Capltal Park and Planning Commission, today was requested by ‘Maj. U. 'S, Grant, 3d, to study the recommendations made- yesterday by the “tourist .camp. committee éthat a new “fourist camp be located some- where in-the triangle north of Mas- sachusetts avenue and west of Wis- consin avenue. The committee in its report, made after an investigation covering sev- eral weéks, found that 70 per cent of the tourists ysing suth facilities come from the West, using Wisconsin avenue, and that only about 30 per cent come from the South. The report was submitted to the planning commission so that it might study it in connection with its in- vestigation of the area in the section proposed for the new camp. While at the present time, Maj. Grant said, Wisconsin avenue seems to be the main avenue for such traffic, it it possible that later Massachusetts avenue may become the tourists’ thoroughfare, and in oder to get the camp properly located, and at such a place where it would not interfere with other developments to be recom- mended by the commission, he wants it studied as a part of the general scheme. The committee recommended that the proposed camp have about 7 acres, which is about the size,of the present camp in East Potomac Park. Several areas were found in this sec- tiou which the committee believed would be’ suitable, but it made no recommendation for a specific site. METZEROTT TO HEAD G. 0. P.
