The Egregious Prof. Reich.

Prof. Emil Reich has written before on
the subject of American women, with the
result. as he frankly admits, that his
remarks were subjected to 'wall-shaking
criticism" Instead of profting by that
criticism, he devotes the final chapter
of his new book. "Woman Through the
Ages" to a repetition of his offense.
An otfense. and a serious one. it surely
is. "These wOmen--the American maid
and WIFE" says Prof. Reich, "aTe funda-
mentally different from their sisters in
Europe, whether in the past or present.
Far from taking the slightest interest
IN man. they look down upon him. Man
in America plays neither first nor second
fiddle. he does not even beat the drum
lie IS the mere lamplighter of the orches-
ira of life in the United States" Then
the Professor goes on to declare that
American women are without talent and
without belief in its existence-that they
FIRMLY maintain all the great artists inn
pose upon their audiences by tricks.
Here are his conclusions upon the sub
Ject. in his own words:
There are over twelve million pianos in
American houses, used mostly by women:
vet there is not single American planiste
OF even the third order There are thou
sands Of schools for American women; vet
there is not single American woman Of
note as . scholar.
/ calmly state that the American woman
is not and can not be anything like the type
OF womanhood that. from the Hellenes
downward, all European nations have con
slaered as the right model
roman, then, in America cannot develop,
and has never developed. that peculiar
charm of either beauty or grace that In
Europe has always been held to be the
greatest power Of women.
The last word. then, in American woman,
hood Is this, that they represent actually
what the ancient Greek myths Of myths
they be- represented svmbolicaliy-a realm
Of Amazons grated upon a realm OF man.
The old Greek Amazon is indeed the evil
dent erehetype Of the women of the United
States.
That there are in the United States
such women as Prof. Reich describes
no well informed person viii dispute.
They are not peculiar to this country.
1t may be that they are more conspic-
uous here than elsewhere. But that
they are the predominant type or the
representative type all American men
who are not misogynists will emphaticai-
~ deny-and few American men are mis-
ogynists. There are indeed American
men who devote themselves to the max
ing of money which they are content to
let their wives and daughters spend, but
in characterizing the American man, as
in characterizing the American woman.
Prof. Reich falls into the error of hasty
generalization upon insufficient data.
He has not seen even all of one side
of the shield which he undertakes to de-
