SAYS CONFERENCE WILL BE FAILURE Toronto Paper Declares Radio Discussion Doomed Toronto, Dec. 28 (M—The “Mail and Empire,” in a special dispatch from Ottawa today. says the inter- national conferences among United States, Canada, Mexico Cuba and Newfoundland on anti smuggling, opening January 7, anl &0 radio, opening Japuary 9, ap- bear doomed to failure before they meet, The anti-smuggling talks wiil I. the newspaper says, owing to the absence of cabinet representa- tion from either the United States or Canada. The radio meeting, ac- ording to the Mail and Empire, Jdoomed owing to the “breach of the agrcement by the United States™ which was arrived at last August in a conference at Washington. Breach of Faith “Those familiar with the discus- sions at the radio conference in Washington,” the newspaper says “charge the United States radio commission with a breach of good faith, and the facts as narrated he: justify this charge. At that conference a tentative agregment for the division of wave-lengths w reached, but at the request of t} United States representatives, an- nouncement was deferred until er the presidential election. “Knowing this conference (of 9) was arranged, the ed States radio commission al- | locates 87 per cent of short wave- lengths to United States stations. and have also allocated 90 out available long wave-lengths. The | tentative agrecment in August call- «d for two-thirds of the long and short-waves for the United States ad one-third for Canada, Mexico Cuba and Newfoundland. Out of 631 <hort wave-lengths, the United States has already taken 551, and nts a share of the remaining; while of the long wave-lengths, al but six out of 96 have been taken.” The paper says the fecling in the capital is that it will be better for Canada to increase the power of its hroadcasting stations o as to secure a place for Canadian programs rather than to trust to the United States in another allocation of wave- lengths.

HOUSEWIFE MUST HAVE MANY OTHER INTERESTS Work Will Become Drudgery Other- wise Professor Tells Sociologi- cal Association Chicago, Dec. 28 (UP) — The American housewife must have an interest outside her home or her in- tellectual life will be stunted by the monotony and drudgery of house- hold tasks, Prof. Annie Louise Mac- Leod of Syracuse university told delegates of the American Sociologi- cal associq on here today at their annual meedng. “How can we expect a keen intel- ligent girl, after four years of col- lege life, to take up houschold chores that are wearing on the nerves and fatiguing to the muscles?” Profes- sor MacLeod said. “It is obvious that it logical nor economically sound educate girls extensively for a life apart from home responsibilities and then thrust these responsibilities on them,” she continued. Dissatisfied women themselves are arriving at the solution of their problem, Professor MacLeod point- ed out, by delegating household tasks to those fitted for it 4 seeking gainful pursuits outside. “Any high grade moron can do housework,” Professor MacLeod said ag her parting shot at drudgery. Along the lines of lightening the housewife's work and making her tasks more intercsting, Prof. J. L. Hypes, of the Connecticut Agricul- tural college, pointed out that pro- gressive schools are eplacing the traditional subjects of cooking, sew- ing and design with courses in food, child care and training and care of clothing for the family.” Clark Is_ Secretly Married Pittsburgh, Dec. 28 (®—James B.
