A-10 URSES PROWOTION OF U. . HOME LIE Representative Ruth Owen Proposes Woman Member in New Cabinet Post. Championing American home life ! and the American child, Representative | Ruth Bryan Owen, Democrat, of Florida | has drafied a bill for presentation at| the next session of Congress, in De- cember, to create a department of home and child in the President's cabinet, with the proposal that the secretary shall be a woman The new departmeent would mote and foster education, home and family life and child welfare.” It would be authorized to conduct_experi- ments and surveys in health, hygiene, | infancy and pre-natal care, education and training, neglect, dependency, de- linquency, child labor, family and home economics. Objects of Bill Outlined. Asserting home and child should be on a “parity of dignity” with agricul- ture, commerce and National defense, Mrs. Owen announced she would 1n-l troduce the bill at the December ses- sion and would press for early legisla- tive action. She stressed the need for amalgamat- ing scattered governmental agencies dealing with education, the American home and its children. She pro- nounced the present the logical time for such a step, since the Government is already engaged in far-seeing plans for consolidating Federal activities “Tucked off here and there, in cubby- holes and odd corners,” was her descrip- tion of the present status of Federal child care as she found it in studies made as a basis for her bill. Suggests Bureau Transfers. ‘Written into its phraseology was the suggestion a woman might well be made a cabinet member to supervise the new department, to which Mrs. Owen would have transferred the fol- lowing: The office of education in the Department of Interior, “except those functions relating to the reindeer in- dustry in Alaska, the Alaska trust fund and education of natives in Alaska.” The Children’s Bureau, in the De- partment of Labor. Child health and home sanitation functions of the Public Health Service, in the Treasury Department. The National Training School for Boys and the National Training School for Girls from the Department of Jus- “pro- housing tice and District of Columbia Welfare | Board. Child-egucation functions of the Federal Board for Vocational Educa- tion, an independent governmental agency. ‘The Bureau of Home Economics of the Department of Agriculture. Provides for Other Changes. Besides these specific transfers, the bill would empower the President at any time to add or transfer other gov- ernmental child-care functions. She said she had througnly tested out the legislative soundness of the provisions of her bill by consulting ex- perts, and that she had talked its claus:zs over with leading educators and child welfare workers and felt certain of their support.

LION COAXED INTO CAGE AFTER SPREE IN CAR Boston Zoo Curator Called to Aid of Baggagemen Frightened by 350-Pound Beast. By the Associated Press. BOSTON, September ' 22.—Julius, a 350-pound Nubian lion, was on his way to Manchester, N. H., today, safely con- fined in a heavily barred steel cage— thanks to Curator Daniel Harkins of the Pranklin Park Zoo. Julius broke from his cage in the baggage car of a train from Buffalo, N.'Y., last night and roamed at will about the car from North Adams to Boston. Once at the North Station here he presented a serious problem to railroad officials. The conductor in charge of the train wouldn't enter the car, the baggage- master and raflway expressmen refused to even attempt to unload its contents | and the Boston police looked yearningly toward the zoo for aid. Harkins came to the rescue with a new cage, coaxed the lion in and today Julius was on his way to his destination. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. €. LATIN HOUSEWIVES PRAGTICE THRIFT ]Foreign Trade Reports Show | They Use Sewing Machines, | lgnoring Factory Apparel. | By the Assoctated Press. | Women of Spanish blood apparently |are making much of their clothing at ‘home on sewing machines long after their sisters throughout the world have come to depend upon factories for their dress. | The United States customs record on | foreign trade in the human-powered sewing machines—practically all of ' which entering world trade are of Amer- w ican origin—shows the Latin American countries are the big customers. Last month Mexico took one-third of all United States export of hand foot-operated sewing machines, the Philippine Islands accounted for the next rlrjut total, of 2,402 machines; Chile was put down for 643, the small country of Ecuador for 331, and every Latin American aulru-r had a respect- able quota considering wize of popula- tion representeg by it. ‘To light up the comparison, Canada, which is the biggest customer of the United States in nearly all lines, much |larger in population and more substan- tial in purchasing power per inhabi- tant than the countries mentioned, took but 904 sewing machines of the hand type. while all of Europe took but neg- ligible numbers. In the sale of power machines for factory equipment the situation in the sewing machine field was reversed. The non-Latin countries were the destina- tion of the bulk of all such machines set afloat from America. | members of labor unions for 50 years or | more were guests of honor recently at | Transport House, Westminster, Eng- land, headquarters of the British ‘Trades Union Congress. “This Laundry Actually Saves Us Money” HE extra wear our clothes give us since I've sent them to ‘Manhattan has been a real saving.” : ;.
