At the weekly program luncheon to- morrow afternoon Senator Burton K. Wheeler of Montana will outline what would be his policies for the party if he were writing the platform of 1928.

N ok ok TEMINIST history was made at Ha- vana during the recent Pan-Amer: ican Congress in three respects, accord- ing to Miss Doris Steve e National Woman's Part; s St week, when she was entertained at luncheon at the Capitol Hill headquarters. “For the first time i history.” said Miss Stevens, “women not delegates to an international conference were per- mitted to present their claims to equal- ity with men before the law when the pan-American body granted a hearing 10 the committee on international ac- tion of the National Woman's Party be- A plenary session, “An equal rights treaty was presented for the first time as the quickest means of abolishing all existing inequalities be- fore the law relating to the status of women. and for the first time women were own status when the conference passed unanimously a resolution creating a committee of women to study their own status in the Americas. this committee beinz empoyered to report recommenda- tions to improve their status to the next Pan-American Congress, to be held in Montevideo, Urugua: 3 “All of these things mark a definite beginning of the participation of women in all future international bodies. It indeed. a brilliant beginning in in- ternational feminism on this continent. "It was to be expected that women of the United States, with their new po- litical power., would be the first to initiate international action on behalf of all the women of the Americas. Also it was not astonishing that the men of this continent. all more or less recent winners of their own independence. hould be responsive to the aspirations of their women toward greater liberty. “Everv organization of Cuban women co-operated with the North American committee on international action to make the work a success. Their eager- ness to join with the women of North America in this enterprise was moving 10 a degree. “Three new Cuban members of the National Woman's Party international visory council were invited to join, and accept>d membership on the coun- cil.

It was such a tame accident that no one in the passing crowds bothered to notice until a dog trotted into the situation. He was an oldish dog. but his sense of humor got so far ahead of his dignity that he left the man he was walking with to scamper over and fling himself on the mattress, with the abandon of a tired collie in for a good long nap. Having created the Impression. he pounced up. capered over th» ticking, pawed at the tufts of cotton, and then scampered back to his man. That dog knew, as well as the next, that a mattress belongs tn a house in- stead of on the street. And having rec- ognized the foolishness of the transfer in the only way allowed him by nature, went about his ordinary affairs the same as any other fellow, after enjoy- ing his little joke.
