TINE woman with the shawl
over her head IL tho real CEN
ter OF interest and attention
IN Americanization. At tho great
An,ericanization conference held in
Washington last summer under the
auspices Of the Bureau Of Educa-
ton, Department of the Interior,
.he received careful consideration.
It Is true that much OF the work of
10 conference dealt with technical
and philosophical aspects Of the
Americanization movement. But the
phsse Of vital interest was the prob
lem Of assimiating the foreign-born
woman into the community life Of
her American-born sisters.
The foreign-born woman has been
regarded as the indefinite member
o. the immigrant family. The
children arc very real and tangible
beings, because they become a part
Of the public schools. Tho foreign
born woman has been isolated from
her native-born neighbours, but often
she has had the additional drag, in
the language of one Of the foreign
born men, Of being "boarder-ed" to
death. By this he meant that the
duties of caring for a household
were increased by visiting friends
and relatives from the old country.
She was too busy to attend night
school or baby welfare clinics, and
50 was shut of from all channels
through which she might come in
contact with English-speaking peo-

Macaroni Not
Un-American

1--WE must ask ourselves, Row
shall the foreigners home life and
neighborhood life be made to fit in
with American traditions and ideals?
In the first place, If what we have
said has measure of truth In it, it Is
not the part Of common sense to try
to ALLEVIATE the newcomers from their
perfectly natural and normal GUS
toms. Let us drop the attempt to
secure uniformity. There is nothing
un-American In macaroni, or in cop
per dishes, or lace bedspreads, or to-
mato paste, or marionette shows.
The more we have Of all these
the better.
Freedom for the woman and the
child Is what We should be working
for in considering Americanizing the
home life Of the foreigner who comes
to us. We free the child to a certain
extent by insisting on education for
all children We free tho life of the
woman to q certain extent by OPEN
ing the doors Of factories and shops
and Offices to her. But this is only
beginning. We must free the home
more adequately from disease, from
the intrusion Of industry whereby
the home life Is destroyed, from in
adequate space occasloned by high
rentals. In other words, it is only a
social program which can now be
effective In furthering those ideals
of freedom which brought America
into being.
"The Italian women, contrary to
what was feared by many, cooper
ated in putting over the govern
ment's food regulations. An Italian
American woman worker at our
house secured the cordial permits
sion Of Italian tenement women to
hold cooking demonstrations in their
own tenements, to which they invited
their friends. Notwithstanding their
tenacity In matters OF diet, they
gladly accommodated themselves tt

worthy Is the degree OF success
attained by the movement. The
mother, In every case, goes awav
inspired and happy in the thought
of lettering her family's lot, and
she is promptly on hand the next
day, eager for more instruction in
the rudlments Of the American
tongue.
On an average this foreign moth
er has been in the country for from
ten to twenty years, according to the
records kept at this Americanization
school. But only now is she receiv-
ing the instruction the lack Of which
has been her greatest obstacle to a
proper realization Of what it means
to be in America. The success of
the experiment has already demon
strated the lack of opportunity and
encouragement hitherto.

Becky as q
Motive


Motive
The father and children have been
getting the benefit. "Now it is the
mothers turn" says Miss Schotten-
fels, "and no longer must cooking,
washing and other house duties in
terfere with her progress, for we
have arranged it so she can attend
classes at her own convenience. 1t
is gratifying, indeed, to see how she
responds to the slightest encourage
ment." And the little secretary gave
the following illustration:
"a mother came to the Council
House for the first time in the spring
Of 1919 at the earnest solicitation of
ono of the councils workers. She
slouched into the classroom rather
sheepishly, with her two girls, aged
ten and twelve, and remarked for
the edification Of the assembled
group that Sarah and Becky could
teach her at home, but she came once
to please teacher This mother
continued in regular attendance
throughout the season as a member
of the English class, and surprised
herself and teacher by becoming a
star pupil. When an announcement
was made some weeks after her en-
trance into the class that dressmak-
ing was to be taught in the building,
this mother was the first registrant.
During the summer Becky had a
cold. Her mother called on one of
the councils workers for assistance.
The worker addressed looked at the
child's throat and suggested that en-
larged tonsils might be the cause of
the ailment. Worker and mother TO-

Where there are no hidebound, mar

that thousands are not only willing
to learn but are more than anxious
to embrace every opportunity.
Where Ignorance
Is Dangerous
"Your neighborhood houses are

possible way. 1t Is ignorance of
American ideals and customs that
makes for much Of the fomenting

FAMINE MAY COME IN RUSSIA
Bulletin of the National Geographic
 SncietVl.

Bulletin of the National Geographic
 Society,".
 Dispatches predicting dire famine in Russia this winter, which may cause more terrible suffering than that ill., fated land already has borne from op- pressions of the czar, revolution and bolshevist maladministration, recall that Russia seems to be the luckless heir to periods of near-starvation.
 One of the earliest famines in Russia of which there is any definite record was that of 1900, which continued for three years, with a death toll of one half million peasants. Cats, dogs and rats were eaten; the strong overcome the weak, and in the shambles of the public markets human flesh was sold. Multitudes of the dead were found with their mouths stuffed with straw.
 Three Russian famines of compara- lively recent date were among the most severe in the history of the country. They occurred in 1891, 1906 and 191l During the 10 years following the first of these periods of death the govern meut allotted nearly s125,000,000 for relief work, but the sums were not al- ways judiciously expended.
 In 1906 the government gave 40 pounds of flour a month to all persons under IS and over 59 years of age. All peasants between those ages and in- fants under one year of age received no allowance, and it became necessary for the younger and older members of the family to share their bare pit tance with those for whom no pro- l vision was made. The suffering was intense and the mortality exceedingly heavy, but the available statistics are not wholly reliable.
 The famine of 1911 extended over one-third of the area of the empire in Europe and affected more or less di- rectly 30,00000 people, while S,000,000 were reduced to starvation. Weeds. the bark of trees and bitter bread made from acorns constituted the chief diet for the destitute. This was unques- tionably the most widespread and most severe famine that has befallen a Euro pean nation in modern times.

ROAD WORKERS WITH
 DISABLED GUN NAB
 ESCAPING CONVICT

Chasing and capturing convict who was trying to escape, themselves armed with a shotgun that would not work and Ford that got stuck in the sand, and bringing him triumphantly back, is the latest stunt of the em- ployes of the state highway depart ment.
 The incident occurred last week wEen a gang of convicts was being worked on the fill at the Florence bridge. One of the convicts, seeing a possible road to freedom in the brush along the Gila, broke and ran for it. The prison guard emptied his rifle at the fleeing man but without effect.
 Then the highway boys came to the rescue. Jumping into the flivver, they peat it up to the station and borrowed a shotgun from the agent. He had only one shell and he forgot to tell The boys that one barrel did not work Of course they put the shell in the wrong barrel. They did not know It. however, and neither did the prisoner
 Setting out after the fleeing man with the gas buggy, they chased him over the sands until the machine begged down. Jumping out, they con tinued the chase on foot and catching up to within a short distance covered him with the disabled shotgun ant ordered him to stop.
 Evidently the prisoner had more re- spect for a scattergun than for rifle for he stopped and the boys brough him back.
 Meantime the guard was also ho on the trial but he was some distance ir the rear, and the rest of the pris- oners had no guard; that is, they haC no regular guard. But the foreman was equal to the occasion. Grabbin, a heavy pick handle he served notic on the prisoners that the first mal that make a greak would get 'beaned good and plenty. They sat down an, calmly awaited the outcome of tn chase.

HELD FUR TRIAL ON
 CHARGE OF FORGERY

Wearing the shoes which he is al- legged to have obtained by a forged check, Juan Sanchez appeared in Jus tice De Souza's court yesterday where he was given his preliminary hearing on the charge of forgery. Sanchez of fered no testimony and was bound over on s1,000 bond which was not furnished.
 The Mexican, according to the state, purchased a pair of shoes from the Boston store, paying for them with a $S7 check drawn on the Phoenix Ma tional bank. The check proved to be a forgery although at the time of his arrest, Sanchez claimed that he could neither read nor write.
