Are Women Hard ON other Women
BY DOROTHY DIX
WORLDS Highest Paid Woman Writer.

>.
Public opinion is the thing that
gives many a woman the backbone to
resist temptation. She knows that it
will be thumbs down for her with
other women if she takes the easiest
way. and so she observes the moral
tiles and the conventions that consti-
tute the woman law. and which other
women demand that she must prac-
tice or else put herself beyond the
pale.
Women do police each other. They
do sit as judges on each other. They
do demand a certain standard in each
other. And it will be a sad day for
society when they take to viewing the
woman who leads an irregular life
with Ienient eye.
Women's condemnation of the inn
moral woman is also instructive Self
preservation. Becau Ae the mother
and the child have to be protected
marriage was instituted, and it is
women who have to safeguard mar
Therefore it is necessary that women
punish the women who flout mar
rage, and who are home wreckers.
For their own sakes they must also
hold aloft the ideals of, purity and vir-
tue, and this they can only do by
drawing the line sharply and definite
ly between the woman who keeps her
garments spotless, and the ones VINO
bespatter them with the filth OF the
gutter.
No sinner is willing to pay the price
of his sin. No wrong-doer wants jus
tice. but all history goes to show that
as we sow we must reap, and that
only by enforcing justice can we make
the weak observe the law that makes
for the common good. This is the in
exorable fiat that none of us can
and it applies to women and
men alike.
The idea obtains that men are more
merciful in their attitude towards the
Ma gdalene than women are. This is
a mistake. There is nothing SO ruth
less, as the cruelty with which a man
will cast aside the woman of whom he
is tired, the playthiug he has broken. |

A PRIMER OF ECONOMICS.

A committee of leaders in industrial
and economic thought in Great Brit
ain have Joined in a statement which
is aimed in a simple way to empha-
size some of the facts necessary 20
remember if a right understanding of
economic matters is to prevail. The
statement is as follows:
We live by exchange. Every one of
US is occupied day by day in exchang-
ing something we possess or some
service we can render for the things
or services of others. Every obstacle
to free exchange is a charge on the
community. The freer the exchange
the higher the level of prosperity.
An article or a service is worth
what it will fetch. Any attempt,
whether by combines of capital or
labor. or by superior authority or
force or legislation, to impose an IN
natural price defeats its own object.
No power can force the buyer to buy
so freely as the knowledge of a fair
deal.
The arbitrary fixing of a price of
anything. whether an hours work or
a pint of milk. tends to restrict both
the demand for and the supply of
that thing Just as in nature the tide
flows and GIBBS alternately, so in eco
nomic affairs a natural price is al
ways moving forwards and back
wards. As a price flows producers
are encouraged to come forward. and
as price "ebbs" buyers are attract
ed In this way the maximum OF ac-
tivity is maintained and all parties
benefit. Rigidity discourages produc-
ers and buyers alike, and thereby lin
its both supply and demand.
Every good citizen is anxious to
serve his fellows. and in public discus
sion there is much talk of services.
The only true measure of service thru
industry is the willingness of the
served to accept it. In a free market
every service offered is Subject to the
test Of public opinion. Thus thru cap
italism and the higgling of the mar
ket we ensure to the community the
best service.
Full economic liberty is unattain-
able. As producers we must be slaves
to ourselves as consumers, or else
to ourselves as producers. The pro-
Queer must wait in the market place
to be hired or else the consumer must
wait in queues to be rationed. We
must be slaves in one capacity and
masters in the other. BY keeping our
producer-selves in slavery we have
raised the standard of living many
hundred per cent BY allowing our
position as consumers to be subordi-
nate to our position as producers we
must retrace our steps and lower the
standard OF living.
The purpose OF indusry is to make
and supply goods for the general en-
joymsnt- The only test of its success
is the market test. the free ana unfet-
tered judgment OF all expressed indi-
vidually thru the machinery Of buy
ing. and selling. When the consumer
ceases to be the first consideration
with industry its true purpose is for
gotten

result of this failure TO agree is that
the railroads lose money thru reduced
business and the workers lose money
thru reduced employment The long
er this situation continues the harder
it will be for the roads to get back
their lost business. Apparently a
greater degree of cooperation would
be a fine thing for both the roads
and their employees.
