Wiley Honored—Pen Woman Receives Emblem—New England BY CORINNE FRAZIER. ISCUSSING the validity of American_ideals, Dr. George Schultz, Ph. D., professor of political economy of the Uni- versity of Maryland, told mem- mers of the Women’s National Demo- cratic Club at the weekly forum lunch- eon Monday that law enforcement and the home were the foundations of American ideals: the basic principles on which our forefathers founded the democracy. “And these ideals are valid today— they are still basis, though changing conditions have brought about a dif- ferent conception of home life and a confusion of ideas concerning law ob- servance. “I know of nothing which will con- tribute more to good citizenship today than the opportunity to acquire a home. And while, at present, our ideas on law enforcement. are in what some choose to call a deplorable state, there never has previailed in our business life a higher standard of morals and ethics than today—a part of the heritage of our forefathers. American ideals are still sound.” In conclusion, Dr. Schultz cited the proposed five-day week as a probable factor in the readjustment of our re- ligious and social life, which would bring about a closer contact between the church and the people and a slight- ly retarded tempo of living which, in turn, might result in an adjustment of the general law-enforcement problem now facing the country. “It is not that we lack religion, to- day,” said the speaker, but that our life in this age of machinery and big indus- | tries, is an indoor life, while that of our forefathers was spent largely in the open. Naturally, while they turned to the church as a retreat, we seek out- door retreats as a contrast from our confining civilization. A five-day week, in my opinion, would give the citizen time for recreation, time for church, as well. “As for law enforcement, other condi- tions are just as responsible for the lack of law enforcement or observance today, as prohibition,” he declared. “Crowded traffic is one of them, the high speed at which we work another. All of the minor misdemeanors for which one may be arrested, today, tend to rob the ‘jail’ of its stigma. We have magnified obscure offenses until we have become so accustomed to infrac- tions of the law that, after a while we don’t mind going to jail at all—or at least ‘visiting’ the judge. It takes time to make any readjustments, however, and, in time, America will solve this problem as she has others,” he con- cluded. Mrs. Rose Yates Forrester, secretary of the club, introduced Dr. Schultz. At the speaker’s table, in addition to Mrs. Forrester, were Mrs. J. Borden Harri- man, president of the club; Mrs. Charles Hamlin and Miss Caroline Riley. * K K % Mrs. Jouett Shouse, wife of the chair- man of the Democratic national com- mittee, inaugurated a ceries of teas to be held on the last Friday in each month, the past week at the club house of the Women’s National Democratic Club on New Hampshire avenue. A tea will be given at the club house on Thursday afternoon of this week by Mrs. Nellie Tayloe Ross, vice chairman of the Democratic natios committee, in honor of the wives of the Democratic members of Congress. b i MR-B. HARVEY W. WILEY, newly elected chairman of the national council of the National Woman's Party. was the guest of honor at a delightful tea given Wednesday afternoon at the national headquarters of the organiza- tion, 144 B street northeast. Promi- nent women representing nearly every section of the globe gathered to pay their respects to Mrs. Wiley. In the receiving line were Miss Alice Paul, Mrs. Paul Linebarger, Mrs, Dora Ogle, Miss , Mrs. Burnita Shelton Pouring tea were Mrs. Cloyd Marvin, Miss Margaret Baxter of London, Eng- land; Mrs. Merritt O. Chance, Mrs. G College of Law; Miss Sarah Grogan, Mrs. Jesse Nicholson, Mrs. John Mock and Mrs. Virginia White Spiel. ‘Among the distinguished women were Mrs. Claude A. Swanson, Lady Philip of Brisbane, Australia, and Mrs. Gardner Phillip Orme. Following the tea the guests listened in over the Nation-wide radio hook-up to the address made by Dr. Emma Wold of Oregon on the nationality proposals to be considered at the conference for codification of international law to be held at The Hague in March. “Proposals on the subject of na- tionality, which is the first to be con- sidered, will be presented to the codifica- tion conference by several groups of legal experts,” Dr. Wold sald. ‘hese proposals would write into the projected world law the existing discriminations against wives and mothers. Women would present proposals providing that there be no distinction based on sex in the laws relating to nationality. “Women of the United States dis- covered the position they were in during the war, when many who had never been out of this country found them- selves treated as enemies because their husbands were alien enemies. Numbers of American-born women, resident in this country, who played an important part in winning woman’s suffrage, found themselves denied the right they worked to gain because their husbands were cit- izens of other countries. “‘Such grotesque situations finally re. sulted in the passage of the Cable act in 1922, by which women were given the right to retain their nationality regard- less of marriage. act has in- fluenced the laws of many countries. Practically every government that has rewritten its nationality laws since the World War has recognized the altered position of women. In the outstanding European countries which have not yet remade their laws,- demands for rev sion in behalf of independent nation- ¢ ality for women are so insistent that the | governments are considering the requir- ed changes, notably the British Empire and Germany. “The injustices resulting from the lack of uniformity in the nationality laws of the various countries have brought about the demand for an in- ternational law. Women are deter- mined that old discriminations shall not be carried over into world law. The International Alllance of Women for Suffrage and Equal Citizenship, com- posed of member organizations from 43 countries (the League of Women Voters is the United States section of the al- liance) demands that a married woman shall have the same right as a man to retain or to change her nationality. The International Federation of University ‘Women takes the same stand. sociation of Women Lawyers National Federation of Zonta Clubs have adopted resolutions indorsing the State forestry department of the Uni- versity of Maryland. Mrs. Sallie Bogue, chairman of Ellis Island, asked for donations of embroid- ery floss, wool and materials for making garments to be used by the men and women detained there.
