Men Well as Women
Think Legislation
Can Do Everything
BY BERTHA STONE.

Lady Aston. speaking with the ex-
perienCe Of the first woman member
OF parliament. IS quoted as saying
the great trouble with women Is
that they seem 10 think legislation
will do everything"
After her ladyship has been In
politics a little longer she may mod
crate her dictum sufficiently 70 ad-
NIT that the notion that legislation
will do everything IS by no means
peculiar to women. A good many
men have been heard IN the dis
cussion OF some issue or emergency
10 urge that we need a law" or
"a law should be passed" with ap-
parently the same blind confidence
in mere enactment that Lady Aston
finds fault with In her British sis
tiers.
There Is in fact no moro common
illusion than this OF curing or curb
ing by the simple e1pedient OF add
ing a law 10 those already on the
statute books. After enactment
must come enforcement. unless
backed By popular sentiment Is as
likely as not 70 lag into laxity. So
n All comes back 20 the individual.

take root But how many men. as
we'll as the women whom Lady
Astor reproached. think all that r.
necessary Is TO pass law and for
