AT the Illinois State Liquor Deal
ers' convention President Frank
Kunde OF Chicago reported that 1000
saloons had been ousted from the
State OF Illinois in the last year. He
attributed part of the large dry vote
to the activity of women, but he said
that in only one case was the vote of
women actually vital.
report was made on the efforts of
the liquor dealers to have moving
pictures censored so as to remove
from all pictures any representations
that would be harmful to the reputa-

The house of representatives Is the
most expensive lawmaking body in
the world, 1t costs more than eleven
million dollars year to make the
laws of the United States, and the
house spends some six million. Near
ly three and half million OF this
goes into the salaries of the men,

court in Massat ,setts ruled the
other day that property In n mans
name belonged to him, and although
1t recognized that the mans wife had
earned half OF the money by saving
IL, IL held that the woman was entitled
to none OF the money according to
law.
Financial writer's oil over the coun-
try have declared that the decision Is
unsound from an economic stand
point. IT women can not have O
voice in the spending OF the money
they will not have the incentive for
saving it, says the Milwaukee Even
Ing Wisconsin.
Many other courts have recognized
the woman's right to share of the
money. The fact that man is re-
Quired to give woman alimony when
there Ia divorce Is q recognition OF
the riShts Of the. woman. But 1t Is
not the right that women most need.
Equal division of property as her
right is never granted until 1t can be
| shown she had hand in earning the
money. The fact that she remained
at home and cooked and sewed and
darned socks Is not called the accum-
ulation OF wealth. She has to do
more than simply save to get recog-
milton OF the courts. Woman must
show she actually earned the money
IL she would get more than ailmony.
The lack of financial responsibility
with lack OF financial reward for wo-
men has done much to keep them
| economically dependant on men. Men
laugh at the mistakes women make
in the financial world. They laugh
when q woman makes big mistake
at bank, but she can not be expect
ed to know things about money and
banking when the right to know Is
denied her. EA 4I
