Rights for Women in All Lines
To be Decided on Merit Alone
BY NIXOLA GREELEY-sNnTH

There has recently come into being
in New York city an organization of
men and women which is known as
the Feminist Alliance. These men
and women have banded together Ito
work for the removal OF all social. po-
litical and other determinations based
upon sex. and for the award Of rights
and duties in all fields on the basis of
individual capacity alone"
Henrietta Rodman. widely known
as an educator, who with FOla La
Toilette and few others of the ad-
vance guard OF feminism. retains her
maiden name despite the fact that she
is a married woman, is the acting
chairman of the Feminist Alliance.
Any women who does not believe that
she should be forever penaliZed by the
fact of her femininity should join this
alliance. II is because l believe that
the handicaps imposed by nature upon
women should not be made the eX-
cuse for further handicaps imposed
by man that have become a member
Of it.
One of the foremost feminists OF the
present dav is Mrs. Charlotte Perkins
Gilman. She declares there are al
ready two kinds of feminists-human
feminists and female feminists. The
human feminist. Mrs. Gilman says
holds that sex is a. minor department
of life; that the main lines of human
development have nothing TO do with
sex The female feminist, on the con-
trary, holds that woman is most valu
able as a female and as such she
should be INDUCED. honored, paid and
allowed full and free activity. At the
head of the female feminists is the
Swedish writer. Ellen Key.
1 As / understand il, the point of di-
Vergence between the Gilmanites and
the Keyites is at the question of
whether or not women should con-
tinue to be disappearing after mar
riage and the birth of children. Mrs
Gilman believes In a central or state
nursery as well as a central kitchen,
which would relieve mothers of house
hold and nursery cares. She does not
take into consideration the fact that
mothers do not want TO be relieved Of
the care of their offspring and their
homes; they do not desire machine
made children and rubber-stamp
households.
