20 WOMEN GET FEW J0BS FROMHOOVER But President Is Expected to Mrs. Margaret Gardiner to the United States Civil Service Commission. Dur- ing the war Maj. Julia Stimson was made superintendent of Army nurses, and Miss Mary Anderson was appointed di- rector of the Women's Bureau in the Department of Labor in 1919. Presi- dent Harding made Miss Grace Abbott chief of the Children's Bureau in the Department of Labor, and Mrs. Wille- brandt became Mrs. Adams’ successor as Assistant Attorney General Other Harding Appointees.

She was reappointed by President Coolidge. Miss Jessie Dell, United States civil service commissioner, was appointed, as a Democrat, by President Coolidge to su ceed Mrs, Gardiner, deceased. The two women now on the municipal bench in ‘Washington, Judges Kathryn Sellers and Mary O'Toole, were IW, re- spectively, by Presidents and Harding. The Hoover administration is only six which probably rolled up close to half of the 21,000,000 votes cast for him 10 months ago. - As one national commit- teewoman after another took part in the Work-Huston love feast on yester- day they gave vivid evidence that they are as party-conscious as Republican men, That they sooner or later will expect their place- in the Hoover sun seems as certain as anything in politics can be.

YORK, September 11 (P)—It is just as important for a wife to keep herself attractive as it is for her to keep the house clean, in the opinion of Jeanette G. Brill, a Brooklyn magis- trate. When Mrs. Bessie Schmierer complained of her husband’s attentions in other quarters, the magistrate im- posed the following sentence on the complainant: “Go to the nearest drug store, get yourself some rouge, powder Don't be embarrassed again by havins your false teeth slip or o 5 | rop when you | eat, talk, laugh or sneeze.

O. P. sisters are not in critical / : | mood, except in one or two cases, but it was a_matter of general remark that to date President Hoover has named but one woman to a place of distinction. She is Dr. Ada L. Comstock, president of Radcliffe College, who is the woman member of the Wickersham kaw En- forcement Commission. Other women have received appoint- ments to less important commissions, such as tlg ones dealing with education and child”health. In’the administra- tion proper, no daughter of Eve has so far found placement. Considering that the ‘“women’s vote” figured heavily in Mr. Hoover's bumper majority last November, eyebrows on certain feminine political foreheads are beginning to be raised a little in wonder, tinctured here and there with disappointment and impatience. Women to Get Recognition. It can be stated on pretty first-hand authority that in due course President Hoover will draft a woman or women for conspicuous service in his admin- istration. A Republican leader who has access to the inner sanctum of the ‘White House defines Mr. Hoover’s pro- gram in this connection in terse and logical terms. “The President,” ne says, “is looking for the right jobs for wom- en, and, when he has found taem, he will seek out the right women for tne jobs.” No date is hazarded as to when this will happen. It may not be until the Hoover plan for reorganization of Government departments is worked ‘out and in operation. Another explanation of delay in “manning” high Federal posts with women is that members of that sex who have demonstrated capacity for ad- ministrative or executive jobs are al- | & ready firmly intrenched in sucn posi- tions all over the country—heads of schools and colleges, directors of wel- fare work, presidents of women's fed- erations or patriotic bodies and other posts to which feminine talents are par- ticularly adapted. Opinion is expressed in Washington that the moment some women distin- guish themselves in lines suggesting their special availability for Govern- ment service they are not likely to have to wait long before receiving a summons from the White House. But the Hoover yardstick calls for something more than sex claims and party regularity. Mrs. Willebrandt's Successor. Nearly everybody, in and out of the Republican party, expected that Presi- dent Hoover’s first woman appointment would be a successor to Mabel Walker ‘Willebrandt as Assistant Attorney Gen- eral. That expectation was the stronger because of the fact that Mrs. Wille- brandt's predecessor, appointed by Pres- ident Wilson, was a woman, Mrs, An- nette Abbott Adams of California. The present indication is that Mrs. Wille- brandt’s successor will be a man. The one slated for the post is Hugh M. Al- corn, State’s attorney of Connecticut During the nine or ten years of wom- en’s enfranchisement, the various Presi- dents have not been overgenerous in the bestowal of official plums upon them.
