Woman Enjoys Helping
Bonds and People Meet
Miss Clara Porter Likes EN-
Both, and She Effects
Gnnhinafior,
Combination

I'm keen about bonds, but I'm
keener about people. Usually when yoa
are interested in two things, you like
to get them together'
Without wasting any words about It.
this is how Miss Clara Porter, who sells
bonds for the Guaranty Trust Com
pany, sums up her work within the
compass of two sentences. She is sin
eularly successful in effecting this
combination of bonds and people, and
believes that the most stimulating
thing in the world is to stage regu-
lar coup in craftsmanship.
Il like my small investors just as
we'll as my big ones,' declares Miss
Porter. at is astonishing how sub
scribing to Victory Loans has stimu-
lated a demand for bonds in general.
Women who never invested before
keep ringing me up to ask for advice.
A great deal of judgment has to be
used in giving it.
There is mo reason why women
should not be as successful as men in
this work. l have found no sex preiu-
dice IN any quarter and the competi-
tion IS just as keen as between man
and man. | hope that before long
every bond house will have at least a
lew women representatives"

to Terrorize the Members

OF Painters, Decorators and Paper
hangers of America, with Offices at
243 East Eighty-fourth Street. in a.
resolution made public yesterday, de-
mands an investigation of the Board
of Education's attitude toward the
Teachers Union.

nouncement made by the Board Of
Education several weeks ago that it
intended to investigate the Teachers
Union for alleged disloyalty. The
Painters Union also asks that the
conduct Of Superintendents Ettinger
and Tildsley be examined as to their

lows
"Resolutions adopted jointly by the
Central Federated Union of New York,

The Woman's Trade Union League and
the United Hebrew Trades, jointly re-
solved that we form special joint
committee of the above bodies to un-
dertake a thorough investigation Of
the attitude of the Board of Education
toward the Teachers Union, their pro-
posed investigation of and their con-
duct toward the members of the said
union, and to specifically inquire if the
innuendoes and inference of disloyalty
given out by the Board of Education
are not for the purpose of terrorizing
It's officers and members, and thereby
destroying the union.
''Be it resolved, That this committee
enlist the services of experts to in
vestigate in all respects the attitude
and conduct of the present Board of
Education, its professional subordi-
mates, ESPECIALLY Superintendent Will
lam Ettinger and Associate Superin-
tendent John L. Tildslcy, and their
educational policy
"Pending the report of the investiga-
tion committee. the Board Of Educa-
tion should abandon its inquisitonal
method of investigating and trying
teachers and substitute therefor a
trial committee of seven, selected as
follows: Three by the Board of Educa-
ton, three by the Teachers Union,
these six to select a seventh.
"And be it further resolved, That
the right to use the public school
buildings be Immediately restored to
the Teachers Union.

Saluation Arn,y Drire
In Neao York Tagging

RR1GADIER GENERAL COR
> NELIUS VANDERBILT, chair
man of the Greater New York COM
mittee for the Salvation Army home
service fund drive, yesterday issued
an appeal to the people of the city
to increase their contributions, cou-
ping his request with the warning
that there is danger of the city's
quota of S1,500,000 not being realized.
He said:
"The response of the city to the
appeal for the Salvation Army home
service fund has been disappointing.
The drive has been in progress four
days and the total receipts are still
considerably less than S50O,o00. At
this rate it readily will be seen that
New York City will not reach it's
quota, $1,500,000, by Monday night
the end Of the drive. To go over
the top with the enthusiasm and
force worthy Of the great object for
which we are working, the city
should send in 100000 day from
row to the end of the drive. Of
course the trades committees have
only partially reported and we ex-
pect their figures effectually to swell
our daily collections'
