FEW ATTRACTIONS IN SHANGHAI
Chinese City Offers Few Inducements
to Americans

WaShington-It is even harder to
find n job and comfortable living ac-
cOmmodatiOns in China than i'm the
United States, and Americans unless
they have some definite engagement in
Shantung are urged to not go there
by Ashley NJ. Harris, executive secre-
tary of the treasury, China central
committee of the American Red Cross.
Perturbed by the increasing number
of Americans arriving on every steam
er totally unfamiliar with conditions,
with no employment in view, and many
of whom are faced with the impossl-
bility of getting away when they dis
cover their plight, Mr.. Harris has re-
ported conditions to the national Red
Cross headquarters here as follows:
Shanghai at the present time Is
overcrowded and accommodations are
limited and very hard to secure. 1t is
also expensive to live here and with
the exception of positions requiring
high technical or executive ability, po-
sitiOns do not pay such terribly high
salaries, so the chances of becoming
financially embarrassed and stranded
are increased because 1t Is generally
vers difficult to obtain transportation
out of Shanghai"

SPIDER ATTRACTED BY MUSIC
According to organist, He Was Always
Sure Of One Listener When
ever He Played.

An organist, telling OF his experi@

ty story of his most regular listener
IA spider that had taken up his abode
In the organ case, over the performers
head. 1t remained there for about
year.
IL was musical little fellow, and
when the man began to play 1t would
spin down almost TO a level with his
shoulder and gently swing 10 and fro
and listen. When he had finished a
piece II would draw itself up to its
nest, and when he began another,
down It would come again and resume
Us position as an interested listener.
1t had six legs. Two 1t put out in
the mir as balance pole, two it
handled the web with. and the third
pair It used In pulling itself up hand
over hand, as sailors climb rope.
The organist came at last to watch
for the little fellow, and It was always
faithful, so that he was sure of az
least one attentive and appreciativs
listener.

WOMEN PROPOSE
SEX EQUAL|T|ES
CAMPAIGN FOR AMENDMENTS TO
FEDERAL CONSTITUTION rs
FORMALLY iNAUoARATED
National Woman's Party Proposes
Equal Rights With Men Accord.
ing to Announcement Issued
Sunday

Washington-The National Woman's
party announced Sunday the compile
ton OF preparations for a compaign to
obtain national and state legislation
removing political, civil and legal dis
ordinations against women.
A proposed equal rights amendment
to the federal constitution has been
drafted by counsel for. the Woman's
party and will be introduced la the
senate by Senator Curtis of Kansas
and in the house by Representative
Tess OF Ohio on October /. The text
of the proposed amendment follows;
Section I. No political, civil or le-
gal disabilities or inequalities, on ac-
count of sex. or on account of mar
riage, unless applying equally to both
sexes, shall exist within the United
States or any territory subject to the
Jurisdiction thereof.
Section >. Congress shall have
power to enforce this article uy APP
propriate legislation"
The need of such amendment of the
constitution to guarantee women equal
rights with men in all the states will be
presented exclusively by distinguished
women at hearings 10 be held mt an
early date by the judiciary committee
or the two houses, to which the pro-
posed amendment will be referred An
effort will be made to obtain action on
the amendment at the next session of
congress. A wo-thirds vote of each
house Is necessary for the submission
OF an amendment to the states, approx
al by three-fourths of which Is neces-
sary for adoption.
The question has been raised wheth-
err removal of Inequalities on account
of sex" would not operate to invalI-
date many laws discriminating In fav-
or of women, such as laws limiting
the hours of work for women and pro-
hibiting the employment OF women at
night. On this point Miss Maud
Younger, national legislative chairman
of the Woman's party, said Sunday
night:
"There are two phases of the ques-
ton which we have had to consider
in drawing up this amendment and
bill:
"First-That all the determinations
against women should be included +; and
"Second-That Industrial legislation,
such as the eight-hour law. minimum
wage, etc, should not In any way be
touched.
AT first il was thought that perhaps
clause specifically exempting indus
trial Legislation would be necessary,
but we are Informed by our legal ad-
vlsors that this is unnecessary. AS
our measures now stand, II seems that
they neither approve nor dlsapprove
such legislatlon--they do not touch Il.
The consensus OF opinion among the
lawyers whom we have consulted is
that the supreme court could at pres
ent, If II wished, throw out the indus
trial legislation for women as uncon-
stitutlonal under the fifth and four
teenth amendments To the constitution,
ana that II can also do 1t If our pro
posed amendment is passed, but that
our amendment and bill will not make
II any more likely that this legislation
will be thrown out"
