Says WOman's Part
 in World Must Be
 Passive, Negative

CHICAGO, Jan. 25.-Woman has as good a chance to succeed in life as, a man, but she must do it in her own field, Mrs. Edith Rockefeller McCor- mick, of the Chicago Opera company, said today in an address. She dis cussed the principles of synthetic psy chology.
 "The work of the world is accom- rlished by two forces, the positive and the negative" she said. Man is the positive force; woman is the neg ative.
 Women, if they are to find happI- ness, if they are to have pOise and serenity of soul, must know their linn itations and realize their handicaps.
 Women represent the rails of a railroad-the negative fOrce-and men the engine. or positive force. It is her ability to bear, as the rails bear the engine, that ma.les ner the counterpart of the male.
 Woman is made to bear, to sus. tain; man to be aggressive, self assertive. He is the adventurer. It is by being negative that woman be- comes power To be passive !s woman's great forte.'

 Unemployment Problem

OTTAWA, Jan. 25.-The dominion government tonight approved sweep ng measures for the relief of uneni- ployment throughout Canada.
 The plan, to be financed through federal warrants, makes special pro- vision for Canadian and British war veterans and will be in force until March 31. The new legislation binds the federal government to reimburse nmnicipaN authorities to the extent of one-half of their outlay for unemploy- rent relief in the case of ex-soldiers, to assume the other half.
 lrovincial and municipal authorities
 Tn the case of public work under taken to provide employment, it is stipulated that the municipality must ray the normal cost plus one-sixth of the extra cost the federal govern ilent paying three-sixths of the extra cost and the provincial government two-sixths. This grant is conditioned on the province agreeing to bear its share of the burden and also on ap- proval of cost estimates for works re- ceiving the approval of the federal department of public works.
 Where work cannot be provided, and conditional on cooperation by the provincial government, the federal government agrees to refund to muni- cipalities one-third of disbursements for unemployment relief.
 In rural districts, the federal gov ornment agrees to reimburse provin- cial governments for one-half of their outlay for relief work.
