NEW YORK, January 19.—Who are these women who sit today in the legis- latures? Sewing circle ladies? Intel- ligentsia? Chatter boxes? Suffragette types with mannish clothes and hands that grasp forbidding umbrellas? ‘The answer is no. These 147 women legislators of 43 States have come to politics from as varied personal pursuits as the men whose places they have taken.

Smith, president of the Poetry Society of America, swung the verdict to Lewls with these words: “‘Main Street' is the simple truth— that's all. ‘There is a tefrible dearth of culture, understanding and knowledge in small American towns. An artistic desert prevalls. I do not think the Americans are an artistic people. No great literature has ever come out of the West or South.” 20 LAWYERS FACE QUIZ New York Hears. | NEW YORK, January 19 (#).—The Herald Tribune says that 20 lawyers will face disbarment proceedings as the result of an intermediate report by Ref- | eree Samuel Seabury to the appellate division.
