EMPLOYED WOMEN PROTEST J0B BAN Attack Wisconsin Bachelor Legislator for Bill to Send Them Home. MADISON, Wis, April 13.—The working women of Wisconsin vs. a debonair, brunette bachelor legisla- tor—that was the line-up today for a battle incited by a piece of legislation designed to relieve male unemploy- ment and stave off “race suicide.” Alone on one side was Assembly- man Maurice Fitzsimons whose bill to outlaw women from public and pri- vate employment in order to return them to “their rightful places in the home,” there to raise families, caused a feminine flurry. Club women and married women employed in business joined in the attack on the legislator, accusing him SHOW of CTRI REFRIGERATORY A The leading line of fast growing refrigeration.

ARTHUR JORDAN’S 4th FLOOR of being too’interested in what other men'at wites §do; andfinot ritetescsd enough to find a wife and do his own bit at family raising. Leading the female forces was Mrs. Max Rotter of Madison, who described the Assemblyman as “not half bad,” despite his verbal tifts with her in the Legislature. Mrs. Rotter appeared at a hearing to advocate an amend- ment to the Fitzsimons bill to tax single men more than 21 years of age $10 to $50 a month so long as they stay unmarried. “What he needs is a wife,” said Mrs. Rotter. “Some blocks on the floor and a little velocipede on which to scrape his shins at night and a dolly to rescue from under the rocker would not be amiss.” To Mrs. Rotter’s suggestion that he uneeded a ‘“blonde wife with pastel shade slips in his clothes closet and cosmetics in jars on his dresser,” the legislator replied “if I have any weak- nesses, they’re not blondes.” “I have no interest in other men's wives,” he said, “except when thev are taking special privilege by usurp- ing men’s jobs. As to the need of feminine influence and love in my heart, those affairs are being satis- factorily taken care of.” Fitzsimons said that the entire ob- ject of his bills was re-employment and that he “intended to see the measures carried to Washington if I have to run for Congress myself.” JUSTICES APPROVE PROPOSAL BY BAR Sign Order Creating A Committee on Admission and Grievances. The Justices of the District Su- preme Court signed a general term order yesterday, creating a Committee on Admissions and Crievances, the dual functions of which hitherto have reposed in separate bar association bodies. Changes in admission and disbar- ment procedures, which will be made by this order, are effective October 15. The new committee will be com- posed of nine members, appointed by the District Supreme Court bench. Three will serve for one-year terms, three -for two-year terms and three for three-year terms. The change decreed yesterday has been long sought by many members of the District Bar Association, who | felt the admission fees paid by young | lawyers should be available to finance | | disbarment proceedings which bere- tofore have been paid for out of the | | bar association treasury. | 11 COUNTED AS TOLL OF SUNKEN FREIGHTER By the Associated Press. KINGSTON, Jamaica, April 13— Eleven lives were counted today as the toll of the Caribbean storm which sent the Norwegian freighter Havmoy plunging to the bottom. With two known dead, hope was abandoned for nine other seamen missing since the little freighter cap- | sized and sank 20 miles off Jamaica early Tuesday. Two days of search failed to disclose any trace of them. Seven survivors in Kingston, mean- while, told of their 48-hour fight with | death on the stormswept' sea that ended Thursday witi their rescue by | fishermen. Five of them clung for more than two days to a piece of hatch cover barely big enough to float them. The other pair was washed up on a tiny jutting rock far offshore. Printing Expert to Speak. L. W.
