Nobile de Martino, Ambassador_from Italy; Renresentative Ruth Bryan Owens and Mrs. Elinor Glyn, each| paid high tribute to the progress and | achievement of women—especially here 1n America—during the last half cen- | ury. “I have always admired the women | of America for the part they have played and are playing in the life of | their country,” said his excellen speaking first. “It is due te the act | ties of American women, largely, that | this country of yours has reached its | great level of culture during its com- | paratively brief national existence. A | great responsibility rests upon _you women in the participation in affairs | of your Nation, and I am confident | that you are equal to it.” | Mrs. Owens, declaring that she | looked forward to the day when the | question of service would completely eliminate the question of sex in the selection of those to fill positions of responsibility,” stressed the progress made by women in the past 50 years as suggestion of the advancement to be expected within the next 50 vears. “The most striking achievement of the last 50 years is the way women have learned to organize,” said Repre- sentative Owens. “It is a long ste from the time when the first women’s club group in this country met to dis- cuss the gWestion, 'Is it better to be good than to be beautiful’ and the | present day, when every town and city in the Union has its organized group of women doing intelligent and con- structive work for its community. If that has been the achievement in the past 50 years, woman's place today resulting from this progress is but a glimpse into the achievement and op- portunities beckoning to our sex in t future, I believe. We have learned the place of woman in the community— now we are to learn her place in the Nation; and I can see a time in the not far distant future when it will not be a question of sex, but of the service one is capgble of bringing to an office that will be the sole con- sideration for their —selection.” Mrs. Owens declared in conclusion that a double responsibility rests uj every woman who assumes & public office today—responsibility to her own distriet from which she is appointed and responsibility to all women who might come after her. “Every failure puts an obstacle in the path of wom- an’s progress,” she declared. “Every success is a step forward for all women.” Mrs. Glyn urged that women think more of the building of character than of any one thing in their quest.for independence. She hopes the day will come, she said, when women’s new enthusiasm for accomplishing ‘some- thing worth while will lead to a merging of so-called class lines—from the standpoint of professional or so- cial status—and the best of aristocracy will be the test of character and cul- ture, not of birth or position. “Character is the thing that stands the test of said the famous novelist, whe ‘is perhaps one of the keenest students of character today. “What profit it a person to be born to culture and with inherited talents if she does not make use of Eer heri to develop her talents or do some job well. It should mot be who you sre or what you do, but how you do it! When this becomes the standard by which we are judged, then indeed will we have & trye aris- tocracy—the aristocracy of character.

Fletcher of Flor- jda before members of the Women's Na- tional Democratic Club tomorrow at sheir weekly forum luncheon. The speak- er will be the honor guest. Members wishing to attend the affair are asked by the secretary’ of the club to make their reservations in advance, stating | the number of guests they will bring. | Luncheon will be served promptly at 12:30 in the dining room of the New Hampshire avenue clubheuse. Willmott Lewis, Washington repre- sentative of the London Times, was the guest-speaker at the luncheon last Mon- day, at which Mrs. George Eckels pre- &ide Mr. Lewis talked on “Foreign Affairs,” as seen from the angle of an observer from the press. Rarely has a stronger plea for international under- standing been heard by an American | audience than that made by Mr. Lewis. Basing his talk on an old French proverb, which, translated, says, “If you understand everything you can forgive | 4 everything,” he pointed out a large per- | centage of international difficulties in the past which had arisen from an in- complete understanding, and ventured | to say that, in practically every in-| stance, there would have been no dis- | agreement had there been po misunder- standing. Deploring the small number of people | who are keenly interested in imnterna- tional affairs, Mr. Lewis urged more general attention to the subject. “If we gite our attention to foreign affairs—to the problems and accom- plishments of our neighbors—we would | learn to know them better, and con-| sequently to understand them better. | This is the only solutjon to the war | problem, I am convineed,” he declared. Among the guests at the luncheon were Mrs. Lewis, Miss Bertha. Bolling, | Mrs. J. Borden Harriman, Mrs. Charles | Hamlin, Mrs. John Allan Dougherty, | Mrs. E,A. McCulloch, Mrs. George M. | Eckels, Mrs. Harry N, Rickey, Mrs. Frederie Delano, Miss Lillian Ott, Miss | Emily Storrer, Mrs. Julian J. Mason, ||| Miss' Caroline Graves, Mrs. A. E.| Spangler, Mrs, Kate Trenholm Abrams, Mrs. George H. Hewitt, Mrs. Charles Warren, Miss Clara U. Smith, Mrs,' Frank Bright, Mrs. Joseph Penn, Mrs. ©O. M. Bpencer, Mrs. Willlam H. King. Miss Bogardus, Mrs. Shafroth and Mrs. Hugh Nelson. ¥k ok ¥ “’OMEN in industry and the profes- sions, and the club women working for the advancement of these groups, Wwill be interested in the views expressed by Miss Mary Anderson, director of the women's bureau, in her talk made a fortnight ago at the Y. W, C. A, insti- tute in St. Petersburg, Fla. Pointing out that better laber con- ditions mean better business, and higher ‘wages, more buyers, Miss Anderson said, in her address on “Human Relations in Industdy” “Industry as & whole pays far more attention to the care of its machines of iron and steel than to its delicate machines of flesh and blood, and the resulting waste in human strength end energy is a menace to sustaincd pro- duction and to community welfgre. “Industry in this respect is like a man tending a furnace that blows its dpors open and shoots him several feet across the cellar floor. It is apt to exclaim with him, ‘I didn't know anything was wrong'! Industry goes along concen- trating its attention en selling prol lems, office organization, improveme of product, care of machinery, on, failing to realize that no organiza- . do you think keeps the better home? | Each succeeding month the photograph make the robots and keep them run- ning! Certainly this is a condition that our generation will never see. “Women workers in industry have been especially subject to the whims or lack of care of backward employers, largely because they have been the cheapest and most helpless group in the labor market. Their situation, as that of all labor, has gradually grown better, through the efforts of the unions, to | standards set by progressive employers, and to legislation, but much remains to be done. “At this time, when so much empha- | sis is being laid upon the elimination of | waste in every nook end corner of our business and industrial organizations, it would seem unnecessary to say that consideration for these points I have mentioned would be paramount. And yet the Women's Bureau, in ifs studies in many thousands of plants throughout the country, can report only a compara- tive few that have well developed per- sonnel departments, where the human side of the organization receives careful and trained attention. In too many places the employer turns the handling of the worker over to his foreman, and then bears down so heavily for produc- tion returns that the foreman has no choice but to drive the men and women under him to the limit of endurance. Even if these lesser bosses were trained for the handling of personnel, which | they are not, they should not be made | responsible for it—there should be a | definite centralized policy _operating throughout the company. Those em- ployers who have had the far-sighted- ness to establish such a system are the first to testify to its effectiveness and to its results in increased efficlency and more and better output. “Time and again, for example, stud- jes made by technical experts have | shown that production during an 8-hour day, with the workers contented and unfatigued, is in excess of that turned | out in & 10-hour day or longer. Where | is the intelligence—or to put it more bluntly—the common sense in keeping men and women shut inside a factory for hours that they might be giving to home and community life, with benefit to all concerned? “The same thing is true of wages. Mr. Ford has proven this in his use of the higher wage scale. When the worker has more money he moves into the buy- er class. Instead of being on the eds of poverty, he and his wife and family are able to live with some degree of comfort and in consequence provide a market for the goods that the manu- facturer is continually worrying nowa- days about selling. In addition to de- veloping new markets abroad, we should give thought to the great potential one here at home, waiting only for fair wages to make it possible. Again, this is only common sense. The pay envelope is the boundary of life for most of us. “Finally, it goes without saying that good conditions in the plant make for good community conditions all around. Contrast the man or woman who must work in a dirty, badly lighted, badly ventilated, unsafe shop with those who spend their days in a modern daylight factory, clean, comfortable, full of air and sun, with J.mxper seats, good drink- ing water and excellent sanitary de- viceg— which do you think comes ou the day’s end the better citizen? Which Which do you think helps keep up the level of the community's health? It is worth thinking about.” * * X X Mmm of the General Federa- tion of Women'’s Clubs are offered an opportunity to enrich their individual club treasuries by securing subscriptions to the General Federation News, the of- ficlal organ. Prizes will be awarded the club turning in the greatest number of subscriptions based on its club member- ship, the first prize being $250 and the lowest $5. Decided improvement in the general editorial policy of the magazine during the past year or two, as well as in the make-up, have enhanced its value to club members who are interested in activities of national and international scope. Further improvements are now being launched in the way of more feature stories, illustrations and special | articles. In addition, interesting cover designs will be featured, beginning with the eur- | rent issue, which presents a new and | striking likeness of Mrs. Herbert Hoover. | | of a woman prominent in club and world affairs will appear on the om'er,i * koK x TchHirRs and professors are play- ing an important part in combat- ing outworn ideas about the inferiority of women, according to Miss Mabel Vernon, executive secretary of the Na- tional Woman's Party, in her speech Wednesday at the University of Mary- land before & elass of 250 students | studying problems of citizenship. | “Research_reveals absolutely no evi- | dence of differences between men and | women in innate capacity,” said Miss | Vernon. “Teachers of scientific mind | and training are, therefore, no longer | planting the old notions of sex differ- ence in the minds of beys and girls, but are getting rid of ideas of wamen's inferiority,” eontinued Miss Vernen. “These ideas have no foundation exeept in prejudice and tradition, and are refuted by the work which women ac- complish when greater social and eco- nomic freedom is given them.” Mrs. Jane Norman Smith of New York, chairman of the National Coun- cil of the National Weman's Arty. is Tired, Aching Feet RE a drag on your health and efficiency.

Miss Wellborn was in Annapolis 1 | week, working for an equal guardia ship bill in the Maryland Legislature. The proposed bill would give mothers equal rights with fathers over their | own children.

She has received recognition in Paris as a painter. “In my profes | sion, as in every field.” she said, “wom- |en do not hold the same footing as | men. . We must first win the liberty to | work.™ | _Dr. James Brown Scott, president of the American Institute of Internationai Law, emphasized the need for equality | between men and women in the making of international law. Mary Moss Wellborn of the National Woman's Party discussed feminism in the United States as an important phase of international feminism. The District branch of the Wom- an's Party was hostess at the meeting in honor of Mille. Bunand-Sevastos, Miss Constance Carpenter of Newark, N. J., presided. Members of the recep- tion committee were Miss Elsie Ross Shields, secretary of the Inter-Amer- ican Commission of Women; Miss Louise Wier, Mrs. Arthur J. Roehrer, Miss Mabel Van Dyke, Miss Helen Gey- er, Mrs. Thelma Snow, Miss Miriam Franks, Misses Elizabeth and Florence Hooper, Miss Sara Hobbs, Miss Mabel , Miss Jessie Adkins and Miss Julia Obear. Big Masks for Tribal Dancers. Four ceremonial masks from New Guinea ranging from 14 to 19 feet in height have been placed on exhibition at Pield Museum of Natural History in hicago. The masks are made largely of feathers, but at that it is often necessary for the wearers to have some help in moving around. They are worn during weird ceremonial per- formances which occur only once in two or three years. The masks are used on such occasions, one somewhat smaller than the other. The masks are made inside an inelosure from which the uninitiated are carefully ex- cluded. The process of manufacture usually takes six months or longer. When everything is ready the in- closure is opened &t one corner, and ihe ceremonial procession, headed by musicians and dancers, appears and slowly makes its way thyough the vil- lage. When the ceremony is over the masks are dismantied, the bamboo frames being destroyed and the feath- ers carefully preserved, and the deities represented by them are believed to rturn to their local abiding place, such as the bottom of a neighboring lagoon.
