Section ALL acts and parts OF acts in
conflict with any of the provisions of this
statute are hereby repealed"
In discussing the state bill at meetino of
the New York branch of the National Won
ans party, Miss Anita Politzer, OF Charleston,
3 G., legislative chairman of the woman's
party, said:
"The object Of our organization is to re-
move political, civil and legal disability against
women such as now exists in the law The OBJ
lection raised by many that equality before
The law would undo al that has been done
Tor working women through welfare laws is
not to be considered, because the police powers
OF the state give women all the protection
they require under the. theory that they are
bound to be SO protected on the grounds Of
morality and health"
The National League of Women Voters, Of
which Mrs. Frank A. Vanderlip is the presi-
dent, considered the introduction of a bill Of
rights shortly after the passage of the suf-
frage bill. The New York branch OF the
league dropped the project temporarily due to
the pressure of more urgent matters. At q
convention of the league in Albany last month
the bill of rights was again brought up for
discussion.
Miss Kathryn H Starbuck, Of Saratoga
Springs, legislative chairman, brought in the
report of the uniform law committee. The
committee reported that it was not in favor
OF the legislation proposed by the National
Womans party, as the effect OF blanket leeis-
lation is to create uncertainty in the law and
necessitates constant judicial INTERPRETATION Of
Its effect on specific statutes. It prorossa the

amendment Of specific sections as q slower but
surer method which would be more definite
and save time in the end
The danger Of doing away with existing
protective legislation was pointed out. and Il
was suggested that the leading labor organi-
cations would oppose the law on that ground.
Also, 1t was s$Swn that various provisions II,

The committee recommended the immediate
introduction into the Legislature Of the fol

nor mother shall be preferred as guardian.

just what to expect NAV ba bsa
trom considering the case Of
the West Side Tennis Club.
For years the women mem
oers Of The club have been con-
tent to sit back and play q
MINOR part in the clubs activi-
ties. And on the tennis courts
they have remained calmly on
the side lines with their rackets
and balls until a court was va
can't and there were no more
men waiting to play. Recently
the women members organized
and passed q resolution declar-
ing they were both willing to
pay and desirous of paying
equal dues with men, in order
that they might enjoy equal
playing privileges"
Of course, the thing was un-
heard o.. But st the annual
meeting Of the West Side Club
the women presented an un-
broken front for the purpose Of
turning their resolution into a
bylaw. After three hours Of
animated debate behind closed
doors the exhausted members
declared all adjournment to
future date, when they may
nave gained their second wind
and again be ready for the con-
troversy.
Meanwhile, the governing
boards OF various golf clubs are
watching developments from
carefully camouf1aged outposts.
Up to the present time it has
been the unwritten law Of the
links that no feminine player
should appear on Saturday
afternoon or Sunday.
'If this be equality as Mrs.
Patrick Henry might have said,

similar bills into the various state legislatures.
The state bill, as approved by the legal ad
visers of the woman's party and formally
passed by the National Council in meeting
at Washington, reads as follows:
"Section Women shall have the same
rights privileges and immunties under the
law as men, with respect to:
"The exercise Of suffrage.
Holding Of Office or any position under the
government, either state or local.
eligibility to examination for any position
affected by civil service regulations,

disabilities of women.

regulating the employment of women in in

New-York tribune., 1922-03-12

the average woman, too, for that
matter) believed that at last woman
had stepped up plane level with man.
Perhaps she couldn't knock a golf bali quite
50 far and maybe she still needed small
handicap on the tennis courts, but for all
practical purposes it was taken for granted
that she had achieved position in the scheme
Gf national government that enabled her to
meet the men on something approaching even
terms.
And just as we were settling back and get
ting used to the idea along come fresh head
lines in the dailes announcing: "Women VIII
Ask for Full Rights; Demand Equality With
Men; Plan Campaign in Nine States for Ac-
ton by the Legislatures"
Gradually the idea is sitting through that in
acquiring the ballot the women gained only
one of series of rights and privileges which
are within the scope Of their campaign. I'M
portant as they consider the ballot in itself, it
falls short of being the political panacea that
it has been represented. While the equality
of suffrage may obliterate all sex discrinlina-
tions on the first Tuesday after the first Mon
year when the women feel it is just as neces-
sary to be on a par with the male Of the
species.
The Nineteenth Amendment gave then, equal
IL. at the polls. To-day they are asking that
-this same equality be extended to th.4- in
business, in their homes and in the courts.
And before this can be accomplished they pro-
kpose a regular spring housecleaning Of the
htatute books, until the last dust speck Of dis
elimination against them has been removed.
In running over the lists Of man-nlade
legislation it appears that in singularly few
Instances has man been sighted or directly
Disseminated against. In fact, when yov one
right down to it and examine the law books, it
certainly seems as though men had all the
best Of it from strictly legal point Of view.
The lack Of gallantry among legislators is
shockingi
For instance, according to the n,usty files
at Albany, the husband is considered as the
head Of the house. In any difference Of opin-
ion as to the family policy his views prevail.
II the wife wishes to take in boarders to eke
out the family income and the husband OBJ
jects, the law gives him the privilege Of
vetoing the proposition. II she wants to live
In Brooklyn and he prefers the Bronx, accord
ing to the law they must live in the Bronx il
ordinary domestic relations are to continue.
There is also the legal assumption that any
business in which the wife engages, from mil
linery to Chinese embroidery, is the husbands
business as WE'LL unless the contrary is made
plain in all public notices and advertisements
Of the firm.
r man dies without leaving will his
wife is entitled only to life interest in one
third Of his real property; while If the wife
dies the husband takes all the property which
she has not disposed Of by will OF deed. The

marriage while that Of e man is revoked only

She's figured out that the charm Of long sE
stockings is added to by the wavy lines ssa

The modern happer, in wearing her galoshss
unbucded, is really patterning after the dan
dies OF the court Of Louis XIV.
La botte q chaudron, as the fancy wheels c.
those days were called, were much smarter Of
course, than the modern galoshes. But their
tops Jared out in almost exactly the same way,
thereby displaying the curves Of the courties

Anyway, there's no doubt that the dapsr

years ago in displaying the natural contour a

contrast the galosh sets It of. By leaving one,
TWO, three, four, five or all Of its buckles Or.
fastened and Topping she has reincarnatsd the
boot Of olden time.

Old beliefs were giving place to new, and the
worthless Of the time were at loss to knoF
what the world was coming to. The worths'
OF to-day are just as perplexed
Not so the fapper, however. She has Dis
cerned the value of the galosh and she has
seized upon it to nleet the needs Of modern life
The galosh is made Of fabric and rubber. It
Is unlitarian. But this is no disadvantage
from an artistic viewpoint. As is so often ths
case with good art, the arr Of the gaOsh coz
ceals itself While in reality its chief purpose
IS TO set off the charms OF the wearer, it looss
as though it were being worn to protect tess
from wet pavements.
Then, too, the very fact that It is extremely
informal and unconventional in its appearsnes
recommends it. Robert Rericll, the poet---wfo
lived in the seventeenth century, by the way
dlscernsd the value Of the seemingly unssudno
in woman's dress. In his poem. entitled @Ae'
light in Disorder," he specifically mentions =
careless shoestring' as a feminine chara'
Were he living his fancy would undoubasap

felicity
The French gaIants wore fancy boot ssoeSs
with their footgear. The effect of the lace s0ps
OF these peaking over the edge of the leatnss
was extremely chic. No characteristic Of tas
galosh seems to parallel this very closely. u'
fastened buckles could hardly be compared 2
lace frslls. But the dangling bits Of metal rnss
fringe the gaIosh Go attract attention. aN
noise they make is bound to make the most esl'
lous aware of them.
