WHAT RIGHTS SHOUI
WOMEN HAVE?

WASHINGTON.-"All the legil
ton which might be passed could
make a man and a woman alike. ]
fundamental difference of sex and
that it implies must forever for
complete similarity"
With this for a basis, Mrs. Florei
Kelly, Of the National Consume
League, sends broadcast some gu
tions which, she says, must be
swered before the new proposed F
eral amendment proposed by the
tional Womans Party be consider
by Congress and the state legislator
The proposed amendment as draft
reads:
"Section /. No political, civil,
legal disabilities or inequalities on :
count of sex, or account Of maria
unless applying alike to both sex
shall exist within the United Stai
or any place subject to their jur
diction.
Section 2. Congress shall ha
power to enforce this article by
propriate legislation"
Some Of Mrs. Kelly's questions n
"Will husbands need to continue
support their wives?
"The payment of civilian widow
mothers pension is clearly an II
quality on account of sex and
marriage, which does not apply ali
to both sexes. Shall widowed mot
ers be deprived of theirs?
will the amendment destroy I
new law popularity known as the She
pard-Towner bill. which creates an
equality by reason of sex, in fav
of women, maternity not applyil
alike to both sexes?
"What becomes of the dover righ
that women have in many states?
"Will women be subject to conscri
ton?
What will become Of the Mai
act, which exists solely for the prots
ton of women and girls?
"Will those women wage earnt
who now have the benefit Of the stat
tory eight.hour day, rest at night, a
one days rest in seven, lose these {
vantages?
How can they get an eight-hs
law for themselves in state whe
workingmen do not care to get It
cause they prefer negotiation back
by organization to statutes?'
Washington legislators are findi
these question worthy Of thougl
whichever side they take in the m
ter.

Target Practice Sounds Like Big
 Earth Quakes

Los Angeles, Calf, April 18.- Weather conditions are responsible off the Southern California coast be- ing occasionally mistaken for earth quake shocks, according to a report made to the Chamber of Commerce of this city by Dr. Ford a Carpenter, head of the meteorological bureau of the chamber.
 Dr. Carpenter cited cases of Janu- ary IT and March 23 last when vii tied houses many miles inland and resulted in reports of earthquakes from widely scattered localities:
 "It is a well known fact" the re- port continued, ''thta sound coming from some point may be heard more distinctly at certain times than at others. The distance at which the sound may be heard is also variable. portant part in this. If the sound emitting body is in the direction from which the wind is coming, the sound may be heard more distinctly It can be seen readily that sound waves travelling in the opposite direction from which the wind is blowing or against the wind. will be broken up and defIected-
 The weather conditions during the evenings of January IT and March g were practically the same. At both times an area of low pressure was central over Nevada and Utah, with an area of high pressure off the California coast. Under these con- dtiions Southern California would ex- perience southerly winds shifting to west erly by way of southwesterly-
 The firing took place near Cata- lima Island, which would give the ships a position practically due south of Los Angeles The great atmo- spheric waves travelling with the wind would be carried great distances. Had there been a. northerly wind the shock would probably have been un- noticed.
 With gun firing at sea, the waves are in the air, but with an earthquake the waves are sent out from some disturbance under the surface of the earth and a vibration of the ground results. The gun firing sh ocks rat tie windows and doors but there is no vibration. The effect is more like a high wind
 AS the Navy seems to have chosen Southern California waters for bat tie practce and target firing of the ships we are likely to have recur- rences of these shocks from time to time''

Methodists To Plan Changes
 For Missions

Hot Springs. Ark, April 1S-A plan for dividing the Board of Mis- sions into a Board of Home Missions and a Board of Foreign Missions will be before the general conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church South which meets here May and according to Bishop John M. Moore, of Nashville, the Bishops have eE- pressed themselves as favorable to the change
 agreed on by 8 commission which was authorized by the last General Con ference. The commission, he said, was of the opinion that home mis- sions could not receive in the Board of Missions as now constituted the needs of the home field warranted.
 The fact that our work in the nine foreign fields of China. Japan, Korea, ManchuIia. Africa, Europe, Brazil, Cuba and Mexico has grown to such proportions that it demands the full time and attention of a great board and the fact that the work of home missions has become tre- mendonsly urgent have brought the commission to declare for two boards" Bishop Moore said.
 Bishop Moore said the commission was of the opinion that home mis- sions should stand alone until it comes to itself in politics. movements and meth ods of administration, and then at the end of one or two qua come together on an equal basis and constitute one board with two dis tinct but allied departments
 The Woman's Missionary Council would not be affected by the propos- ed change, Bishop Moore said. be- cause the council had always had of home missions and a department of foreign missions.
