A graduate of the University of maryland Law School and a mem- of the Maryland Bar, Miss Temple said that during the years Of the 12th to the early part of the 17th century the philosophy of the Business and Professional life Was based on ‘‘the job to be done and the person — man or woman — available to do it.” She stated that the status of women has risen almost to the former heights since the turn of this century. She point- = ae that there ns beet ee fe Wal progress along the roa - dependence and equality for wom- n through two world wars. She said, “International relations are such today that to keep. this dem- ocracy of ours afloat will require that decisions affecting the nation é decided mutually by men and women, and not by. either sex alone.” i She explained the two primary objectives of the BPW Federation i. the field of legislation as the Passing of an “Equal Rights A- mendment” and a bill to guaran- tee “Equal pay for comparable Jobs.” There has been some diffi- culty in getting both of these piec- es of legislation through the House of Representatives and she urged the women to write to their con- gressmen on the subject. “If we get these two we will have taken two great stéps forward in the cause of women.” Miss Temple has been admitted to practice of law before thé U.

Carney, chief of naval operations, says he found “freakish and unique” effects from the blasts and fire that claimed the lives of 98 men of the big aireraft carriéy Bennington. The Navy’s highest ranking of- ficer flew in last night from Cuba, donned overalls and spent an ‘hour checking the blistered and hlack- ened compartments of. the 32,000- ton vessel, victim of a series of explosions Wednesday. Carney said that characteristics of the blasts were “freakish and very unique from anything ve seen,” but he said there if “no basis” for assuming they~may have been caused by sabotage. He said he saw “fabrics and structural objects near one an- other, some showing (effects. of) heat and others no heat at call.” In other places, he said, there was evidence of mendous pres- sures and other signs of complete vacuums.” jaid the explosions were “the worst I have seen in all my naval service.” He declined to speculate on the Cc The Navy court of inquiry an. nounced it: will tn pea open its investiga. 0 of the 201 injured men at Newport Navai Hospital noe day.

ALPHABET CHANGE FOR CHINESE REDS TOKYO (—Peiping radio said ina| Venus Not Perfect LOS ANGELES (® — Venus de _ Milo, long regarded as the perfect beauty, isn’t, says Dr. Sidney R. Bob. He says she has a hammer toe on her right foot. Dr. Bob, after inspecting -the ed statue during a European , told the California Assn. of iropodists : “Female vanity hasn’t changed Much since the days of the ancient Greesk. I suspect the model for the goddess, like her modern coun- terparts, wore the wrong shoes be- fause she thought they flattered her feet.” e it today the Chinese Communists have begun work on language re- form which eventually will do away entirely with the ancient Chinese characters. An alphabet will take their place. Wei Cheuh, described as vice chairman of the committee for the research on the reform of the Chi- nese written language, said the re- form will be gradual. The Chinese characters, which actually are pic- tures of ideas, will be simplified first.
