DROP FEMINISM AND SEX IDEAS, ADVICE TO Sarah Schuyler Butler, Daughter of Columbia President, Says Day of “Feminine Crusader” Definitely Over and Fair Sex Now Must do Real Work. is New York, Dec. 28 (P—A plea that women who desire to make themselves felt in politics next year “take a new year resolution to drop feministic and sex-conscious ideas and get down to work,” was voiced today by Sarah Schuyler Butle iss Butler, who is a daughter cholas Murray Butler, presi- dent of Columbia University, has been prominent in New York state political circles for some time. She is vice president of the republican woman'’s state committee, - “The day of the feminist crusader in the United States i3 definitely over,” said Miss Butler, “and the only way now for women to function fully in the political field is for them to start at the bottom and learn the game from the ward canvassing stage on up. “There are only two ways for a woman to get invited to important political conferences,” she explained to the Associated Press. “One is for her to be so influential that she is necessary, which is unlikely, and the other is to inspire the leaders With confidence in her political pudgment Womn need practical experience’ in the chores of ward and district word and they should be judged only by results as men are.” Miss Butler said there is a great need for women in politics, and they are taking more interest every vear. They do detail work painstakingly and, she has observed, they are cap- \ble of great loyalty. Frequently, she added, they are likely to consid- | er politics the main interest of life, and not as only a one of the neces- ry elements of being a “good citi- “To devote the whole-of one's life to politics,” she said, _“is to warp one’s point of view. Yet we find that if we don’t keep our women workers busy between campaigns wi lose them to other organizations, other drives, campaigns, and move- “One of the greatest lessons which women should learn” continued Miss Butler, “is party loyalty. Wo: men should realize that the two party system, with all its faults, is the best instrument to date for democratie government. Unless the people have parties, which it can hold desponsible as it would an in- dividual, the result is something like Mexican chaos, or Kaleldoscopic stries as in France, “And, in working for a party, a woman binds herself to abide by the will of the majority in the organ- ion. ) on-partisan organizations com- only of women are as out of s the suffrage movement.” Butler said she felt that it was hecause women in this country are still likely to be very feministic hen they go into political work that they do not get such “dignified ind desirable publicity” land.

WOMEN IN POLITICS UL T0 BROADGAST AWARDING OF PRI Elin Root to Get Wilson Peace Bequest Tonight New York, Dec. 28 (P—The Woodrow Wilson foundation peace prize for 1926 will be formally pre- sented to Elihu Root at a dinner at the Hotel Astor tonight on the 70th birthday anniversary of the demo- cratic war-time president. Mrs. Wil- scn plans to attend. The award was given to Mr. Root, Norman H. Davis, president of the foundation, has announced, for his worlk in 1920 in the creation of the permanent court of international justice. In addition to a cash prize of $25,000, hie will receive the Wood- row Wilson award medal. The formef republican secretary of state is the seccond person to re~ ceive the Wilson award. Cecil of Chelwood, Great Britain's chief representative to the league of nations, was awarded the founda- tion prize in 1924 for meritorious Iservice to peace through justice. Tonight's program will be broad- cast from WJZ at 9 o'clock. Mr. Davis has said of Mr. Root's selection for the Wilson award: “The growing prestige of the world court and its success in (pre- serving peace through the settlement | of international questions of a jus- ticiable character has demonstrated the importance of the services he rendered in 1920. His ambition for world peace has long been mani- tested.” The Woodrow Wilson foundation was established Dec. 23, 1920, from funds collected throughout the United State A previously unpublished letter of Woodrow Wilson, in which he com- mended Governor Alfred E. Smith to an unnamed hut “well known citizen of New York,” has been made public. The letter, written in February 1919, congratulated Presi- dent Wilson on his trip to the Ver- |sailles peace conference, but ex- pressed misgivings as to Tammany Hall's affiliations with the newly elected governor of New York. “I hope and belleve,” wrotc Presi- dent Wilson, “that you will not be disappointed in Governor Smith. He s a man who has stood quite apart in a great many ways and I believe he feels in an unusual degree the impulses and compulsions of the changed order of the nation’s and the world's affairs.” The letter was made public last | night on the oceasion of a meeting | in Albany of local subscribers to the | son foundation. Mrs. Wilson at- | tended the meeting.

NEW RRITAIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 28, 1926. HUDDLE AND SHIFT WUCH CRITICVZED Fastern Officials Set Threel Seconds for Change in Rules New York, Dec.,27 (#) — East- ern football officials agree that something should be done about the shift and huddle. Meeting in annual session until carly this morning, the Eastern as- sociation of intercollegiate football officials devoted much of its time to criticism of the huddle as slowing up play and of the shift as mak- ing it difficult for officials to deter- mine legality. As a result, a sug- gestion will committee that on all shift and huddle plays, after the players have become set, they shall remain in their rearranged positions for three seconds before the ball is snapped. The eastern officials went the Western Conference one second better in their suggestion, the westerners having decreed a two- cond halt. If the rules committee agrees with the officials in another sug- gestion, referces and umpires will be given wider latitude in impos- ing penalties for unfair play not otherwise provided for in the rule: Rule 21, section 9, now provide: five-yard penalty and the offici a 1s would sce it amended to provide a * “proper penalty.” Limitations placed on the for- ward pass during the 1926 season, including a five yard penalty for a second incompleted pass during one series of four downs, were not ef- fective, in the opinion of cials. A suggestion will go forward to the rules makers that the exist-|" {ing limitation be changed or abol- ished. The suggestion will not in- clude a proposed remedy for the deficiencie A provision previously in effect but not now in the rules providing that an offside player touching a punted ball should be penalized five yards and a touchback de- clared if the offense be committed within the ten yard line, the offi- cials thought should be restored. No fault was found with the working of the try for point after touchdown. A suggestion was made that a clearer definition be given in the rules as to proper equipment, es- pecially cleats. Eight minute periods were favor- ed for junior and elementary school games. David L. Fultz, (Brown), of New York, was™8lected president of the succeeding Walter R. Okeson of Lehigh. Dr. Edward J.

RADIO STATIC MAY EXPLAIN OLD $01 That and Fading Being Studied Relative to Sun Philadelphia, Dec. 28 () — knowledge of the structure and ac- | tivity of the sun may be obtained in |the next 25 years by a study of the static” and “fading” of radio, in the opinion of Dr. Michael I Pupin, professor of clectromagnetics at |Columbia university, and retiring president of the American Associa- tion of the Advancement of Science. Addressing the association’s an- nual convention last night, Dr. Pu- pin said he regarded ‘“static” and fading” carth currents in submarine cables as “‘mes.ages” of solar activ- ity which the mind of man could not appreciate, but which the coming 25 years of progress would probably decipher. Dr. Pupin also said he felt that within a few years the American method for almost instantaneous long distance telephoning would be duplicated on the continent of Bu- rope and that through the increas- ed facilities would “proceed the hu- man interrelationship which fosters peaceful emotion.” He remarked ,that he did not think of what science would do in the next war, but only of what it would do to prevent the next war.
