BY FREDERIC ]. HASKIN


Washington. D. c. March 1.-"Man
has succeeded in convincing the world
| that woman is a little bit of nothing.
Heibers, Danish writer OF the 18th
century, says "A man who loses a halt
penny and a woman loses two trifles.
But one day this trifle, this little
nothing. discovered she was a human
being. Man was astounded. wo-
man think? He had done all the
thinking for centuries! And so the
/ fight of the women of Denmark was
| begun"
The occasion of these remarks on
man VS.. woman was the convention of
the National Womans Party, and the
speaker was Madam Thit Jensen,
i author of twenty novels, who has the
reputation of being a man hater in
her country, tho she denied emphatic
ally any special hatred of the opposite
sex.
Later we called round at Madam
Jensen's home to pursue further the
question of man VS.. woman as it is
being argued over in Denmark.
America is a wonderful country
said Madame Jensen, in her jerky,
quaint English. Il should like much
to live here If it can be arranged.
And the American man is more
polite than the Danish man." she
while I am here-one about America
and the American man. Then l shall
go back to Denmark to so on help
ing with the work which women are
doing there.
There are women in our Parlia-
ment now and the Danish women arc
farmers, doctors, lawyers. In fact,
n woman in that country can obtain
any position except that of clergyman
and of course, that is what she most
wants." she added with a faint tinge
of irony. And why should she not
be a Clergyman ?" she demanded. "A
woman's religious feelings are just
as intense as a mans.
The women of Denmark fought
for suffrage and an equal opportuni-
ty with men from 1850 to 1915. At
first the women themselves did not
seem to realize that they We're being
exploited. When Georg Brandes, the
Danish critic, translated Stewart
Mills Women in Bondage violent
discussion was started. The women
in particular took offense. We in
bondage? No" they said. Altho they
were not permitted TO handle their
own money: altho they had not the
slightest right over their own chill
dren; altho they had nothing to say
regarding the military service of their
sons or the marriage laws affecting
their daughterS-and they were not
in bondage. Such stupidity can be
explained only because their brains
were still asleep"
Madame Thit Jensen shook her
short curly blond hair, and her eyes
behind her round glasses flashed.
Revolt of Women
She went on to say that the wo-
men finally did wake up and held
mass meetings which the press call
cd .'crany women's meetings" Dan
ish women appeared at political
gatherings to hecklo the speakers and
even to make speeches themselves.
And when the authorities wanted TO
refuse them admission. the women
produced the law showing that
people" were to be admitted to such
meetings.
Madame Tfit Jensen was one of the
leading spirits in this time OF stress.

FRIDAY. MARCH 4. 1871
During the morning hours today
friendly stars hold dominion over the
planetary forces, according to astrol-
ogy, but later the aspects change.
While Mercury, the sun and Jupiter
are in benefic aspect until afternoon,
Mars and Uranus become adverse
later.
There is the best possible sign for
all persons who take positions in the
sun. Rulers have the forecast of great
success in the administration of pub
lie duties.
Jupiter is in place most auspi-
cious for all that pertains to business.
Financial matter should become salts

pass.
Mercury in kindly sway seems to in
dicate that the press of the country
will give support to those who carry
heavy responsibility.
There is an auspicious sign for those
who give bond, take oath or enter into
written contracts today, the morning
being the most favorable time.
Mars in sinister aspect seems to fore
shadow envy and malice in certain
quarters, but the malefcs today are
much less powerful than the good
stars.
Uranus presages gossip and even
slander that will reach even the lesser
personalities that find places of omolu-
ilenl or receive rewards
The evening should be a fairly fav-
orable time for balls. receptions and
entertainments, but there is an indi-
cation of jealousy and evil report.
This is a most unfavorahle time for
flirtations or new friendships between
men and women. Women may be too
susceptible for their own interests.
There is a menaclng direction of the
stars affecting the ambitions OF all
persons who seek recognition thru po-

Copyright, 1921, by The Wheeler Syn
dicate, Inc)
In spite OF the legend which states
that certain members OF the Cont
mental congress took the trouble to
scrutinize n calendar covering the en-
tire nineteenth century and selected
as Inauguration day. the day which
foil loss frequently on Sunday every
fourth year. the facts in tho case arc
quite different. In the FIRST place, the
Continental congress appointed the
first Wednesday in January, 17S9, as
the day on which the people should
choose their electors. The first We'd
ncsday in February was then name
as tho day on which these electors
should choose n president. and the
first Wednesday in March the govern
mcnt was to go into operation under
the now constitution.
Tho last named day, in 1850, fell on
March 4-hence the Fourth OF March,
following the election of a president,
is the day appointed for his inauEura-
tion. BY act of 1892 II was provided
that the presidential terms OF four
years should commence on this date,
and by the amendment to the consti-
tuition made in 1904. II the house Of
representatives did not elect a presl-
dent by March 4, tho vico-president
was to become president. March ith is
thus virtually made, by tho Constitu-
ton as we'll rs by statute, the day
when a now presidential terms begins.

a Danish Feminist

| In 1908, when she was making
speeches about the country, one vii
lage rose in arms against the treason
of saying women were capable of vot-
ing. The people of the village even
threatened to stone her If she ever
came back with her wild ideas about
women.
But, says Madame Jensen,
proudly. sin spite of all opposition the
women Were now awake. One law
women were permitted to teach
school. In 1906 they were allowed
to study law and medicine. By 1908
they could vote in municipal cleo
tions. And finally, in 1915, the long
fought for vote was obtained"
One phrase of the argument over
suffrage struck Madame Jensen as
ridiculous. This was the question
whether the right to vote should not
be restricted to unmarried, selft-
supporting women.
They reasoned like this she
shows so little intelligence that one
would not dare give her any power
If she showed enough intelligence not
to marry she should be given full
rights of citizenship"
Finally it was agreed to extend the
privilege of voting to both classes
Tho, even now, Madam Jensen re-
ports, a spinster has more legal rights
than married woman among the
Danes. The next Danish Parliament
is to be asked to revise tho Danish
law by which an unmarried mother
has fun legal rights over her child.
whereas these rights are denied the
married mother.
The Parliament is also to be be-
sieged with demands for a law requir-
ing n man to have his wife's permis-
sion in order to sell their farm or
IRFf Ff,saf- FF-lrr
take any other important step affect
ing their joint property.
The property measure is of i'm
portance of Denmark because the
Danes as n people are great property
owners Farming is the big Danish
farmers own their land. Therefore,
says Madame Jensen, the demands of
married women for a.voice in control
of the family farm have aroused the
man to anger.
Trust Mcp To Marry
She explained to the woman's
Party Convention that THE angry
men have threatened that they
wouldn't have children. ! have lee
tured on this law and tried to calm the
agttated mind. Never mind II men
wouldn't marry-they are the ones to
be pitied. But they will marry" she
nodded wisely. They always have"
Madame Thit Jensen has studied
the status of women from the early
days OF history. with the Egyptians
OF 400 &. c, she explains women
had a moro superior position than
they have ever had in any other place
or period.
Man was kind Of guest in his
wife's house, and the children bore
the mothers family name" she says.
Farther back she finds that in some
tribes the man promised obedience
to his wife in all things.
Now she thinks women should take
back some of their antique glory, and
stand, not above, nor below men. but
side by side with men. Il am not Il
man hatcr," insists Madam Jensen.
Il only do not think man by himself
has done as well with this civilization
as men and women working together
can do in tho future"
