SENATOR OTTINGER.
His Attitude in Regard to the Women's
Welfare Bills Defended.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: Senator
Ottinger has been accused Of being OPP
posed to the women's so-called welfare
bills. He has opposed them In their
present form because he knows that their
passage would mean tho dismissal of
hundreds of thousands of women, be-
cause the moment the word women is
written in the law women are dismissed
and men are employed in their stead.
This happened in the case of the Sam
mis- and the Lockwood laws. They made
special provision apparently in favor
of women. The result was that men
were employed and over 5000 women
were dismissed from work.
These laws had to be repealed the
very next year. If such laws are benz
eficial they should include the word
"men" in order to give women equal OPP
portunity.
Senator Ottinger favors the highest
possible wage for women. as against the
lowest possible.
The women's League of Equal Oppor-
tunity, consisting OF women workers,
has Endorsed his candidacy.

APPROACH OF WINTER
ALARMS BARE VIENNA
Food Shortage Being Met BY
American Relief.

VIENNA, Oct. 31.--The first touch OF
winter has reawakencd Vienna and
other Austrian cities to the food sand
fuel situation, which President Seitz to-
day described to the Associated Press
as most unfavorable." While various
charities are doing much to relieve con-
ditions, the American Child Feeding
Fund. with its perfected organization
and two years experience, now Is feed
Ing daily 100000 children under 16 years
of age and also Is supplying 100000
children with overcoats. shoes, stockings
and flannel underwear
The Fund and the Austrian Govern
mefit are working In partnership. Inas-
much as Austria takes over all the ex-
penditures for. freight and warehouses
when American relief supplies reach
European ports, 1t Is said virtually zoe
per cent. of the money contributed In the
United States goes into actual relief.
Full grown people," said President
Sletz, can recover from the effects of
several years of undertaking. but I'M
derfed growing children means gener-
alton OF Weddings. The assistance given
us by the American Relief Fund will al
ways be remembered by every Austrian"
Some idea of the extent of the work
of the relief association may be gained
by the fact that 6S.000,000 free meals
have been distributed to under-nourished
Austrian children in sixteen months.
Tho extension of the American Relief
Associations charities 10 include cloth
ing was due to the fact that thousands
OF families had insufficient garments TO
Permit even one child mt a time to go to

in political avalanches pretty nearly

No Interference, Please. With a
Well Managed Job.

AS soon as the Lockwood Housing
Committee and its counsel, Mr.. UN-
TERMYER, exposed the rich vein Of
graft In the building business the
Federal Department Of Justice hur-
| ried to get in on the glory. We have
no objection to the Attorney Generals
watching. the proceeding at close
range. 1t might teach Mr.. PALMER
how to go about an investigation, al
though the day is rather too late to do
him any good. But we hope that the
Federal law department will not in
terfere with proceeding that Is
being very successfully handled.
This newspaper has long urged that
important Investigations be conducted
by one intelligent and responsible
agency. The public has watched
cynically, sometimes with smile and
oftener with frown, the failure of
justice where there were too many
cooks. The Elwell case was fizzle
because the police and the District
Attorneys office turned 1t Into. q
squabble for glory-and there was
no glory. After the Wall street ex-
plosion there was grand rush of
investigators. The police, the Dis
trict Attorney, the Grand Jury, the
United States Department of JUS
tice-maybe there were others
hurled themselves on the ruins and
got in one another's way. At that
time we urged that the case be ham
died by the Department Of Justice, as
the crime might be Of national
character
Mr.. UNTERMyER and the Lockwood
committee have been doing well. The
Governor very sensibly assigned. to
the Attorney General Of this State the
task of presenting the fruits of the in
vestgation to the Grand Jury, thus
sidetracklng the impossible Mr..
SWAMI and his incompetent staff.
The responsibility is centralized. The
legislative Investigators have the in-
centlve Of early success and of the
knowledge that the public appreciates
their efforts So 1t Is not going to do
any good, and 1t may do harm, II the
Federal Department of Justice tries
to run the game. If it wishes to be
represented as spectator and reporter,
with the idea of taking up any feature
which may belong particularly to It's
own functions, all very well.
But let us have no botching of this
big job through needless interference.

THE SOLDIER DEAD.
The Assertion They Died for the
League Resented by HerO's Family.


To THE NEW York HERALD: From
reports OF various speeches emarfating
from Mr.. Cox and Mr.. Wilson one would
get the impression that unless the
League of Nations Is approved as Mr..
Wilson wants it we will have played
false to those who have given their
lives in the war. and also played false
to their mothers, wives. sisters. sc.
Mr.. Wilson and Mr.. Cox would further
more have US believe that those who
have died in battle, and the mothera
wives and sisters of those men. would
feel that they have died in vain unless
the Covenant is adopted ''as is"
Both my brother and I served in the
army during the war. Ny brother was
killed In action.
Undoubtedly there are many dead
who would feel, and many families OF
those dead who do feel. just as Mr.. Will
son and Nj. Cox would have us believe
But brazenly to endeavor to give the
impression that all those who have died.
and their near relatives, would feel that
the great sacrifice was made in vain I'M
less the Covenant Is adopted is. in my
opinion. my mothers opinion, my sis
ter's opinion, and In the opinion Of many
other mothers. sisters and brothers. con-
trary to fact
Under these circumstances It IS par

of Mr.. Cox and Mr.. Wilson to pose as
the spokesman for all our dead and their
