League Of Women Workers
To Launch First Driue

\ MOTHER drive will be launched
1 y in New York from October IL
to 25, when the League for Women
Workers enters the field to enroll
10000 new members and to raise
100000. An announcement of the
campaign was made yesterday by
Virginia Potter, treasurer Of the
organization.
The movement is based, according
to Miss Potter, on a demand for
better facilities for rest and recrea-
ton. ''The mems service clubs
established during the war have
thoroughly justified themselves" said
Miss Potter, "and have emphasized
the lack Of similar accommodations
for young women. Accordingly, the
league has made a careful survey
of the business and residential Sec
tions in greater New York and the
northern counties of New Jersey,
with view to establishing clubs
in neighborhoods that need them
most"

state department has no authority
over conditions surrounding home
work, and no survey of sanitation,
no health certificates and no legal
supervision is possible.
One suggestion made to the Labor
Commission was that legislation be
enacted providing supervision for
homo work. "If conditions are
good" says the Investigator, "super-
vision would be an easy matter, and
would necessitate few, if any,
changes, and at the same time would
guard against any exploitation Of
either worker or public. The large
rumber Of foreigners, with their
ignorance of American standards OF
living and their need Of guidance In
this respect, makes this matter
urgent from the point Of view OF
both worker and public"
No real solution for the standard
ization Of home and inside workers
has been offered. Miss Swartz would

workers feel that if anything is done
it ought to be in the way Of factory

that they have a case, which 1,

the government; the Mutual Benefit
Fund, a sickness and death insur-
ance which has maintained itself
financially for years, and the Mata-
sac and Long Island camps, the lat

the summer.
Girls like to choose their own
recreations and make their own
friends. Therefore no two of our
clubs are alike. The girls draw
their programmes from wide va

les, educational courses and dane
ing are among the favorite pastimes.
The clubs all work toward self-sup-
port, and all are aiding In this cam

Echoes From the
Electrical Show
Mere Man Fears Laziness for
Women in Electrified
Homes
THE show is over, but

THE show IS over, but
Two men leaned over the bal
cony and surveyed the ground floor
Of the Grand Central Palace. Their
gaze roved from washing machines
to dishwashers and spanking ma
chimes. Il am afraid" the Plain
Citizen said, sadly, that sll these
things will make the women lazy."
The squaw with the household
goods and the baby on her back was
slipping out of sight round the bend
of the road for good and all
The Electrical Man spoke cheer
fully, however. They may spend
more time out Of doors and have
more time for the children and
other things. and not be 80 cross and
tired at night, especially Monday
night, and the doctors bills may be-
smaller even if the electric bill
isn't"
MAYBE So" said the Plain Citi-
zen, obviously.
The passing Of the laundress IS
not half SO serious when the wash
ing machine looms up on the hori-
zon. When half gods go the gods
arrive" And the women are appre-
ciating this way out. There were
800 washing machines sold when tho
show was two-thirds over-they
led all the rest. And half Of these
were the little electric washers that
fit in the tub. Labor-saving devices
are no longer for the rich and
mighty. They are for the woman
who does her own work and needs
them most.
And while some were washing
the representative from the Inter-
national Conference Of Women
Physicians came by appointment to
study the showing Of electrical
therapeutic appliances. Electrical
apparatus for massage, used so
much in the military hospitals for
the wounded and in massaging mutt
lated limbs, and the X-ray machines
were not familiar to some from far
away places.
The show was not only an exhibit
of electrical appliances; it was a
study IN the progress of woman's
emancipation and growth along
many lines.

the people Of a country ought to
have. In a country where the citi-
zens come from many other coun-
tries and bring III such a variety Of
customs and ways Of living apd be-
llefs, there should be a centralized
movement to mould them into one
great force.
This after-the-war period should
be one of the greatest in the history
of the world. Peoples minds have
been opened. They have learned
unselhshness and they are cager to
progress. Many persons who were
extremely conservative before the
war have become interested in pro-
gressive measures which formerly
bored them. In child betterment
there IS great increase of enthus-
lasm. A demonstration OF this is
shown in the organization Of the
National Child Adoption Society in
England. Before the war there were
many children who had to be kept
in institutions. Few persons had
any interest in adopting them. But
now many, many people are adopt
ing children.
The society brings the child and
the foster parents together. Many
women Of independent means and
wealthy bachelors have adopted
children. The women l know who
have done this are devoted to their
chosen little ones. My daughter has
taken little girl who goes with her
on her trips and furnishes a COM
panionship my daughter enjoys. The
bachelors who have taken children
usually hire people to take care of
them, but they see as much of them
and have as much to offer as the
average father. Business women
have adopted children in few cases.
When we have cooperative house.
keeping they viii have more induce
ment to do so.
But such progress in the better
ment of the world will all be lost If
we, the women Of the world, do not
use our influence against Bolshev-
ism. There is nothing constructive
IN it and it is a real menace"

Buy Country Place On
1uckahoe Road for
Children of Orphanage
Children Led in
Orthodox Paths
A S'Cold STAR Widow
Mothers 200 Boys Be.
sides Her Own Son

HERE is an orphans home in
New York that furnishes
something more vital to a
chlld's needs than food and clothes
and shelter. 1t is the National
Hebrew Orphan House. A real
mother is the luxury which this in
st1tution boasts as one of the first
necessities for it's boys.
For years the orphan house has
gone its quiet way taking care of
children, asking for little help and
placing its charges in the world
when they are fitted to look out
for themselves. Now it has come to
the place where it's old quarters, So
st. Marks Place, are not sufficient
unto Its needs. A plain, sensible,
though spacious, house in the coun-
try is the thing it's directors desire.
When the Fund for Federated
Jewish Institutions was started the
National Hebrew Orphan House was
left out. No national organizations
were included in the big drive. So
the orphan house launched it's own
drive. The amount to be raised for
the National Hebrew Orphan House
is $500,Ooo.
The distinction Of the orphan
house is that it is orthodox. The
children Of orthodox parents are
brought up in the way in which
their fathers would have them. All
the customs and laws of the Jews
are kept with the precision that
might be observed in private
home.
For more than a year the two
hundred boys of the orphan house
have had a real mother. Bringing her
son, she came to Solomon Diamont,
superintendent of the home, after
her husband had been killed in the
war. She had no money and wanted
to leave her boy in Mr.. Diamont's
care until she had enough of a start
on a job to take over the child's
support herself. Solving several
problems all at once, Mr.. Diamont
took the boy into the home and the
mother also, to be a mother to not
only her own son but to the other
children as WELL
This young, bright-eyed mother"
is an innovation in an orphans
home. She contrasts to advantage
with those we'll meaning, but un-
sympathetic spinsters so often seen
marshalling troops of little, uni
formed orphans. During play
time she sits out in the yard. The
while she darns stockings she may
De called in as arbiter, referee or
first aid. Her adopted sons get just
as much attention as her own son.
The house toward which the di-
rectors of the orphan house are
looking is on the Tuckahoe Road.
Headquarters for the drive is No. l
Second Avenue. Harry B. Rosen is
treasurer Of the campaign.

First Drive in
Thirty-6ve Years

Miss Potter, niece of the late
Bishop Potter, is one Of the founders
Of the league and served as presi-
dent twenty-one years, until she was
succeeded last year by Mrs. Ken
meth j. Muir. She is in charge Of
the preliminary organization Of the
campaign, with headquarters at
East Forty-fifth Street.
Among those associated with Mrs.
Muir and Miss Potter are Mrs.
Henry S. Ollesheimer, chairman of
the girls club teams for the campaign
and vice-president Of the National
League for Women Workers, with
which the New York league is affili-
ated, and Mrs. Courtlandt D. Barnes
and Mrs. H. Otto Wittpenn, vice
presidents Of the New York league.
There are twenty-five self-govern-
ing and self-supporting clubs in and
around New York City connected
with the league, the largest having
membership of more than 900.
Eight of the clubs own their own
buildings and eleven others occupy
spacious leased quarters. The total
membership in New York alone is
more than 5000.
The members will form one large
team for the campaign, while ten
other teams will be formed Of volun-
tcers recruited under the officers of
the league.
Miss Potter said yesterday that the
campaign would be the first effort
of the kind ever made by the league
in its thirty-five years of existence.

A Pioneer
In Its Limo

ut is our claim that there were
no clubs for women, organized and
directed entirely by women, prior to
the inauguration Of this movement in
1885, when the six charter member
clubs of the league were formed -
said Miss Potter. "These included
three in New York, one in Hoboken,
one in Yonkers and one in Brooklyn.
The league also established one of
the first vacation houses for girls,
the Millers Point place on Long
Island, where moro than 450 girls go
for two weeks outing every sum-
mer.
"In 1901 we opened summer
classes for skilled operators, and
the outgrowth of these was the Man
haitian Trade School for Girls, which
was taken over by the Board of Edu-
cation in 1911. Other accomplish
ments Of tho league are the Virginia
Hotel, tho first hostlery for women
