ERZBERGER MURDER
MAY MEAN NEW ERA
BY CARL ID. GROAT,
U. II. staff Correspondent.

BERLIN, Aug. 27.-A new era In
German history may arise from the
murder of Matthias Erzberger.
The crime has started a wave Of
wrath throughout Germany against
reactionism, and against the military
parties
President Loeb of the German
Relchstag informed a meeting OF
party leaders that the shooting of
Erzberger as he was walking in the
Black Forest with a single compan-
ion. was undoubtedly a political
crime.
The deed may have serious con-
sequences Loeb declared.
Ofcially II has been announced
that the crime was not committed
for the purpose OF robbery. It occur
red on the eve Of Erzberger's con-
templated return to political life
The reactionary elements in Germany
were bitterly opposed to Erzberger
resuming active leadership OF the
Center party. He was believed 10

She could have used that money
for a new dressl
But when her mother came and
spent her birthday with her son-in-
law and daughter, the elderly wo-
man was taken to the most expensive
eating place for dinner, and out
shopping the next day her daughter
bought her a hat and had the bill
put on her own.
When his sister wrote that she
was coming to spend a short while,
the new wife wrote back that she
was in and couldn't entertain COM
pany. But a few weeks later her
brother arrived to spend the sum-
mer while he looked for a job and.
of course. every one was glad to see
him.
And so il went until everything
he did for his family was done from
the office. so his wife wouldn't know
and there wouldn't be a painful even
ing to endure.
Years later when the wife discov-
cred that her husband had a dual
personality, that he practically lived
two lives. one which she knew and
one which she did not. she wondered
how it was that she didn't see the
deceit when she married him.

Women Should Not Be
Competitors Of Men

The chief trouble with the mod
ern woman is that she thinks she is
mans competitor.
Thus Miss Alfretta Hallem, Bos-
ton psychologist. sums up the femi-
nine situation.
1T was never intended that wo-
men should in any way compete
with man. Her mission in the world
is entirely different" says Miss Hal
lem. "And that doesn't mean that
she isn't supposed to enter the busi-
ness world and be economically in
dependent when it is necessary.
"But even in business there is a
specific place for a woman, a place
where a woman's brain and a wo-
mans tact is neeoed more than a
mans.
Women should seek such places
and make their influence felt in them
rather than trying actually to COM
pete with men"
Miss Hallem attributes much Of
the feminine unrest, now prevalent.
to the fact that women are attempt
ing to compete with men instead Of
holding to her own sphere.

silent, serious children of those
northern fisher folk.
In the little colony Miss Osterberg
is teacher, nurse, physician and
sometimes even preacher. She has
learned the rudiments of dentistry
and even takes care of their teeth.
This year she had interested so
many friends in the people Of st.
Barbe that when she left she took
with her many gifts for them and
was accompanied by eleven other
volunteer workers. who have estab-
lished themselves in the villages
along the Labrador coasts.
