FREES SOVIET WIVES FROM HOME DUTIES Government's Plan Would Give Women Equal Opportunity With Men. By the Associated Press. MOSCOW, April 2—A plan submit- ted to the Soviet government recom- ch 28 | mends the freeing of wives and moth- ers from domestic duties and child care 36 | that they may have equal opportunity with men in carrying out the govern- ment's industrialization plan. ‘The proposal, worked out by a spe- cial “commission for improving the conditions of labor and life,” also aims at “collectvization of city life” by en- couraging collective forms of labor, rest |and recreation among the ecity pro- letariat. Under this project it would be for- bidden to build kitchens in newly erect- ed dwelling houses, while existing kitchens wculd be converted into nurseries, kindergartens, shower baths, reading rooms and other places for public use. Houses accommodating 100 or more dwellers would have only one large communal kitch®n and a com- mcn mess room. e apartment buildings or groups Larg 4 | of smaller houses would have their own nursery and kindergarten, with all chil- dren of the house to be taught and taken care of by trained nurses and teachers. Furthermore, for every com- munity of 500 or more persons separate laundries, meeting halls, baths, and so on, are planned. —_— DIVORCES HER MATE Mrs. Whitney, Concert Conductor, Separates From Actor Husband.

Special Dispatch to The Star. ATER, Tex., April 2 (N. A. N. A.)—The day we lost to treacherous winds and a broken telephone line upon the take-off at Tucson we have made | up by crowding two days' flying into one. Here at Sweetwater, the transcon- tonental air train is right of schedule. Don't think it was easy. /In all my serial wanderings about tiese United States, in all seasons and every congeiv- able kind of weather, I have never Been tossed about more vl&l:‘l’i:ly in any air- craft than I was yest y. It wasn't long after daybreak when the plane-glider train hopped off from Mayse Field, Tucson. The wind, which held us on the ground after we had rigged a new tow line yesterday, had subsided, alfhough the ceiling was low and the visibflity poor. We made good progress until we approached our sched- uled stop at Lordsburg, N. Mex. Rains, Then Blows. First it rained. It contfnued for five minutes, It was the glider's first trial by water aloft and I was pleased to find the cabin wholly watertight, Then the air began to get rough. Then it got rougher. ‘Over the telephone Duke Jefhigin and I agreed to climb in search of quieter air. Higher and higher we went. We were at 8,000 feet, when right into a line squall 'f,; r:n—vu'flel:t up-currents carrying us higher quickly. ErDy}ve her, Duke,” I called over the phone. Both machines nosed down, gently at first, then sharper and sharper. Gradu- ally the glider gained on the plane, slacking the tow line and making me feel that it might part again. “Give her the gun,” I shouted, and down into a power dive we went, the HENIY;OU WANT raperies have us tailor order. STAR, WASHINGTON, MRS. J. MARVIN HAYNES. HAWKS CONTINUES | FLIGHT OVER TEXAS Glider Pilot Hopes to Spend Night at Tulsa, the Half- way Mark., . By the Associated Press. SWEETWATER, Tex., April 2.—Capt. Frank Hawks took off from here at 6:51 am. today in his glider for Wichita Falls, Tex., which he reached at 9:10 am., in continuation of a flight from San Diego, Calif., to New York City. With J. D. Jernigin, jr., at the con- | trols of a towing ship, Capt. Hawks | planned to fly on to Tulsa, Okla, after the stop at Wichita Falls and another pause at Oklahoma City. Tulsa is half- | ‘way to New York on his itinerary. When the airships landed here they | had traveled 710 miles in 6 hours and | 35 minutes and had negotiated a total distance of 1,130 miles from San Diego. ita_skiifal INE SQUALL PERILS GLIDER Rain Adds to Troubles of Pilot Over Lordsburg, but He Succeeds in Coveging Two Days’ Itinerary in One, Spending Night at Sweetwater, Tex.

Hawks al each fleld where he lands, tow ship slowly pulling away from me. “Easy, easy,” I cautioned as the line straightened out and finally became taut. I know now but that for the tele- phone we should have lost our cable again. We skipped Lordsburg, blowing right into and out of El Paso, where a large crowd greeted us despite the mid- morning hour. Climb to 10,000 Feet. On toward Pecos we went, establish- ing & new unofficial altitude record for flight in a glider by ascending to more than 10,000 feet between Sierra Blanca mlrd Pecos in an effort to find calmer air. Pecos we had to skip, too. On this side of Pecos, the air smoothed sut nnd became beautifully calm, making the balance of the flight really enjoyable. We sat down at Midland to gas the tow ship after 25 minutes of gliding, then hopped “into: Sweetwater here, just as the sun set, to receive an enthusiastic welcome. The interest manifest along the route thus far has exceeded our expectations, Yesterday we flew 710 miles, a quarter of the total coast to coast distance from San Diego to New York, in 6 hours and 35 minutes, plus 50 minutes of gliding. ‘Today we go to Tulsa via Wichita Falls and Oklahoma City.

We have discontinued a number of our Southern branches, from the stocks of which many of these instruments have been select- ed.

All pianos not sold outright we are anxious to place in the homes of families who are interested in owning a piano in the immediate future, and for the valuable ad- vertising we will receive by having good families use them.
