JubiIant at Success,
Blanket Legislation Need
of Georgia, Declares
Woman Leader
BY MRS. FRANK PUTNAM
(State Chairman of the National
WOman'S Party,)

MADISO-, Wis, July This
month marks the first birthday of
Wisconsin women's complete eman-
cipation from the inhibitions i'm
posed by the old common law which
made of women and still makes of
them in other states, serni-serfs. vas
sails and incompetents.
AS trail-blaZers and pioneers in the
great work of women's legal liberia
ton, we women Of Wisconsin believe
the equal rights law will go far to-
ward eliminating the double moral
standard.
The adoption Of equal suffrage
placed in women's hands weapon
with which they can and will within
a few years gain full personal lib
erty.
ed in this woman's bill Of rights
preserve all protective legislation
hitherto enacted for women in in
dustry and eventually will be adopt
ed in other states. -,
Probably women generally do not
realize how greatly they are dis
eliminated against by many of the
laws now on the statute books.
Women, now charged with IT, du
ties and responsibilities of citizen
ship equally with men should every
where regard it as intolerable that
they be any longer denied the rights
Of citizenship equally with men.
Equal rights, such as we have in
Wisconsin, grant women the same
privileges and immunities as men
with respect to-:
Exercise of suffrage.
Holding Of public office.
Eligibility for civil service posi-
tons.
Freedom of contract, meaning
business freedom.
Choice of domicile, residence and
name.
Jury service.
Control Of earnings.
Acquiring, controlling, holding
and conveying of property.
Care and custody Of children,
whether legitimate or Legitimate.

Control of earnings and services
of children. - ..f-
! Acting as administrators of es-
tates.
Seeking divorce.
Filing law suits on their own be-
half; not through their husbands.
Immunities or penalties for sex
offenses.
In many states some or most of
these rights are enjoyed by women;
but not all Of them.
So long as woman continues to be
held in a position of inferiority with
regard to the control of her person
and property, her citizensf } is a
travesty, not a fact.
The best course for women of
Georgia to pursue in obtaining equal
rights laws, is through blanket legis-
lation, and not the odious correction
Of a multiplicity Of statutes
Here is how the Wisconsin equal
rights law reads:
Section /. Women shall have the
same rights and privileges under the
law as men in the exercise Of suf-
frage, freedom Of contract, choice of
residence for voting purposes, jury
service, holding office, holding and
conveying property, care and Gus
tody of children and in all other re.
spects.
1.-THE various courts, executive
and administrative officers shall con-
strue the statutes where the mascu-
line gender is used to include the
feminine gender unless such con-
struction will deny to females the
special protection and privileges
which they now enjoy for the gen.
eral welfare.
1.-THE courts, executive and admin
istrative officers shall make ali
necessary rules and provisions to.
carry out the intent and purposes of
this statute.
Section 2. Any woman drawn to
serve as a juror, upon her request
to the presiding judge or magistrate
before the commencement Of the
trial Of hearing, shall be excused
from the panel or venire."
The National Woman's Party Is
directing several state campaigns
from its Washington headquarters
and needs and is ready to utilize
effectively all the aid women every.
where can give.
Under the nineteenth amendment
the women of America are only half
free, half vassal.
This campaign 20 complete the
granting of equal rights for women
cannot end until women are wholly
free.

EQUIPS PULLMANS
WITH RADIOFORPASSENGERS
LackaWanna Rigs Up Car
Rooms So Travellers, Going
90 Miles an Hour Can
Talk to Homes

HOBOKEN, N. J.-Passengers on
trains going 60 miles an hour are
now able to talk to their wives or
offices hundreds of miles away, by
radiophone.
After successful experiments the
Lackawanna railroad is preparing to
equip it's Pullmans with the nee
essary receiving and transmitting
apparatus.
In the fall of 1918 the Lackawanna
began experimenting with wireless
service. During the war the expert
mental equipment was dismantled.
D. w. Richardson, D. G. Murray
and Edgar Sisson, undergraduates at
Princeton, heard about this. So they
went to the company and told the
officials what chance for progress
they were losing.
The officials gave them permission
to rig up a radio set in a club car
and arrange a practical demonstra-
ton.
TT was great fun" says Sisson,
who Is only 10. 1--WE went to Paul
Cooley, who conducted the transact
lantic receiving experiments last fall,
and borrowed his set with it's nine

small transmitter, rugged up a new
cage antenna, grounded our set on
the rails and were ready.
Our first demonstration was on
a train between Hoboken and Scran-
ton. 1t was the first time that mes
sages had been received and dis
patched from a moving train by
wireless.

a mile and a half long. We heard

Following this demonstration, the
company decided to radio-equip a
special train carrying Cornell stu
dents home for their Easter vaca-
ton.

l.. B. Foley, superintendent of the
telegraph, telephone and wireless
division Of the railroad, before all

ratus on their trains.

The heavy storm that centered over this city Saturday evening shortly after o'clock, left in its wake washed-out streets, crippled telephone, and damaged crops, The storm which came from the north centered over Norwich for about an hour during which time over an inch of rain fell, turning the streets into veritable brooks. The flow of the water was too great for the catchbasins. to handle and not few of the local streets suffered surface damages.
 Street Commissioner A p. Cruthers will have his men out today fixing up a washout on Sunnyside avenue and oth- CTS on Jail Hill and on the West Side.
 The greater part of the damage caused by the storm was outside of. the city proper. All day Sunday men from the Southern New England ielephone company were engaged in placing the telephone system in order, and by night most of the 75 damaged lines,most of which were in the country sections had been placed in operation.
 The Connecticut company trolleys suf- fered somewhat in the storm, five cars being held up by water and dirt flood ing the rails. One car was held at the city line at Thamesville, one near the city line on the West Side, the third at Bean Hill( and another at North B street Taftville; a fifth was held up at Jerome farm in Montville where at least three inches of mud and gravel had washed on the rails for distance of fifty feet, taking about three-quartersl an hours time in removing it by the troll ley crew. with help and advice from several of the passengers. This par ticular car arriving in Norwich after an effort of practially three hours. Several local persons who were out ir the storm related close calls from light hing or falling trees.

FINAL REELS SHOWN IN
 PICTURE OF LES MIsERABLEs

At the Norwich Y.- Nj c. A. Sunday
 the last part of the moving picture story of Les Miserables, by Victor Hugo, was
 shown, and it proved most interesting.
 The whole story from beginning to end is well worth reading, for from it one
 gets many a. lesson for human life. The
 crowning point in the story is that the
 poor. wayward man, Jean Vatican. after
 a life of sin, was won back, to life Of
 virtue, and all because someone believed
 in him and showed kindness to him. In addition to the two reels of Les Misera-
 bles. pretty scenic reel of the Canadian Rockies was shown. Hugh Kinder pleased the audience with a vocal solo.
 Between the reels Secretary Hill gave
 brief talk and In part he said: There are contrasts in friendships. and we are reminded of this every day that we live.
 Friendship is a basic principle of society. If the, friendship is true, society is beau tifuliy harmonious, but If it be false. the discord is distressing. Divine friendship is always true, but human friendships are oftimes false. All true friendship Is
