Women, the ConGuerors

NINE SCHUMA N-HEINK urges all
lV1 women Of the world to unite In
gigantic protest against the useless butchery
OF men and boys in Europe. Nine Schu-
mann-Heink is mother. Native of Austria,
she is bringing up her boys as Americans;
but, by right Of her artistic trumphs and the
esteem in which she Is held in all parts of
the world, she Is citzeness Of Cosmos. Be-
cause she Is what she Is, what she says Is of
weight, and it Is not surprising that women
in many cities have quickly adopted her sug-
gestion and have begun organizing mass
meetings.
But-and here is the weakness of it-what
good will mass-meetings do, with nothing
else? What good will protests or cntreaties
DO, when the pure, unauthorized brute In
man is in swing? 1t may be hopeless view
to take Of such q fine movement but the
movement Of women, If 1t goes no farther
than mass expression of opinion, will be a
mere deluge of words. and where bullets are
the missiles words will count little The
prayers Of the Vatican, welding enormous
power among both men and women, have
availed little. The Salvation Army, which,
If it stand for anything, stands for peace, Is
practically out Of commission abroad, because
most Of its male members are shooting at
each other from the Il enches What, then,
can mere words and resolutions do?
And yet, there is no telling. Women have
always been the worlds conquerors. If the
women Of the world should resolve firmly to
socially boycott all men who shoot guns at
human beings-to utterly ostracize the
jeweled general, the Savage leader OF still
more savage men"-or IT, with an enormous
army carrying white flags and chanting
songs. women should boldly march between
the opposing lines Of guns and dare them to
fire. there might be spectacle that would
paralyze warriors and bring the staggering
universe to its senses. What women might
do would make wonderful plot for novelist
capable Of handling It. What they will do
remains. however, to be demonstrated ,by
something more convincing than mass pro-
test.

City-PIanning Exhibit Needed

WHEN the Finance Committee Of the City
w Council some weeks ago laid on the
table Mayor Ainslie's recommendation of
small appropriation TO bring to Richmond the
clty-planning exhibit of the Bureau Of Ameri-
can Municipalities, The Times Dispatch ex-
pressed its disapproval OF this piece Of cheap
economy. Now that tho committee has taken
the recommendation from the table only TO
report 1t adversely, dsapproval is even more
pronounced. The Council should reverse
this action.
or course, Richmond will not ;ndergo a
new birth If the exhibit is brought here nor
lose all aspiration for beauty, symmetry and
health If it is kept away, but this showing
of what other American cities have done and
are doing is of real and permanent value
1t teaches the lessons of municipal expert
ence. 1t reveals mistakes that have been
made that have cost enormous sums OF money
to repair.
1T would help us to get out of our she'll

@ARRANZA'S divorce law makes Mexico
~ one of the garden spots Of the earth for
easy separation, and places Reno so far in the
shade that the American haven Of the matri-

The Mexican law permits full dissolution Of
all matrimonial agreements at the expiration
OF three years, upon nothing more serious
than mere desire of both parties to quit and
try 1t over again. Also, If one party does
not agree, the other may obtain a divorce by
showing any cause, however visionary. that
