FACTORY WORKERS IN AKRON WEAR DIAMONDS
 Sn0 R00

Akron, Ohio. Oct. 5.-Claim that factory workers here own over half of the more than S5,00O,0OO worth of diamonds possessed by Akron citizens is made by representative local jew elers.
 Women own almost 9-10 of these diamonds.
 "It is safe to state than an average taken among all women over 16 years of age, among the factory workers, will give every one of them at least one diamond ring" declared George s. Dales, one of Akron's earliest jew elers "The average worth of each diamond exclusive of the mounting would be about $75.
 Diamonds owned by the men or this class would only average about $10 per man.
 Among office workers the number of male fingers that sparkle in the sun is negligible, but the per capita value of female twinklers is $50. Diamonds are strongest of course, with the society women, wives and daughters of the factory owners and other wealthy Akronites. Here the average diamond wealth is $500 per. The husband, who has to bear the brunt again runs a poor second III diamond proprietorship. His average is only $50"

 DRAWN ISSUE
 IN MISSOURI

St. Louis. Oct. 5.-Although the majority of Republican and Demo- cratic candidates for Congress have not made any announcements on the prohibition question. the wet and dry issue is expected to play a prominent part in the Missouri election next No- vember because of the opposite stands taken by the major party senatorial nominees R. R. Brewster, lawyer of Kansas City, the Republican choice for United States senator, has an nounced himself as dry as rhe 18th amendment" while Senator Reed, the Democratic standard bearer, Is wet
 The fact that the prohibition issue has been drawn so clearly by sena- torial candidates is believed to be partly responsible for the reticerce Q of congressional aspirants on this matter Only six out of 16 Republi- cans seeking congressional seats have announced their stand, while but three out of a similar number of Democrats have stated definitely their views
 Two of the Republicans both of St Louis. are wet and one Democrat. Harry B. Hayes. of the 1tth est Louis) district, has announced himself as favorable to a modification of the dry law so to permit light wines. and beer.

ASKS ADMISSION OF WOMEN TO
 THE RABBINATE

Cincinnati, Oct. 5.-Rahbi David Philipson of one of the largest Jew fish synagogues here. places himself on record as favoring the admission of women to the rabbinate, an almost revolutionary step, in an editorial in a recent issue of The Amecic1n Israel ite. In his article he traccs the his tody of the religious emancipation of women from the days when they were segregated in the synagogues in spe- cial balconies as "religiously= inferior to the present, when they are firmly established in the congregations of the reformed churches.
 Every form of change which granted woman more religious free dom has been fought as break from the past" the eritoria1 states, and it is upon this ground that the adr1is- sion of women to the. rabbinate will be fought. Such arguments are futile in view of the advance of woman in every sphere.
