ENDORSING BILLS

ENDORSING BILLS
A woman who does her own think
ing and who stands high in club cir
cles, doubts the advisability of clubs
passing resolutions endorsing pending
bills dealing with economic and general
questions, and urging their congress
men and senators to vote for them.
She quite agrees with the state pres
ident, Mrs. William A. Fitzgerald, that
women s clubs should act promptly and
decisively upon moral questions and
measures for their enactment and en-
forcement, or upon questions that eff
feet the welfare of women and children.
Other questions, she believes, should be
studied by clubs in their assemblies,
and the representatives in law making
bodies should be asked for informa-
tion on the. subjects to the end that
they may know what the people at
home are informing themselves, but she
argues that congressman and senators
should be permitted to vote as they
wish after hearing every side of these
important questions discussed by those
who have studied them, the voters
holding them responsible at the Next
election if they have been influenced
by selfish or dishonorable motives.
This woman objects to passing upon
important questions hastily and with
but one side of the argument pre-
sented. 1t is noted that many club
women are beginning to think as does
this member of the Ten Thousand Club.
They do not like to go on record
against q measure that may have real
merit, but on the other hand they do
not want to vote for something they do
not thoroughly understand.

STATE CHAIRMAN OF

COUNTRY LIFE SPEAKS
! At the executive board meeting OF
| the California Federation of Women Is
Clubs, Mollie Bloom Flag, chairman OF
| country life reported great interest in
her department. Home demonstration
| agents and the cooperative marketing
and buying agencies are being stressed
f, through the department. She urges
that club women thoroughly inform
themselves on the California water and
power act, which she says will be a
great issue for the rural part of the
state.
Apropos of the slogan, GA demon
stration agent for every county, Miss
Eddy, leader of the home demonstra-
tion agents for the university, says it
is too broad; that some of the counties
are not agricultural and that no county
should have an agent until the farm
women want one and feel the need of
such leader. However, Miss Eddy
fully appreciates cooperation of the
club women, whose influence has aided
greatly in getting appropriations for
agents where they are wanted and
needed. They have also supported and
encouraged the work Of Home Centers.
She especially commended the club
women of Imperial county who have,
through the County Federation, stood
loyalty by the department and urged
the appropriation for expenses of the
agent when opposition was strong
against it.
The Imperial County Federation has
a country life department which seeks
to cooperate with the farm home de-
partment whenever possible

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 8.-Further
tax selling made its appearance In the
bond market today. Securities of the
so-called weaker roads were chiefly
affected, with the St. Paul line the
principal sufferer. All the securities
of this road were offered in large vol
ume, with consequent sharp declines
in price. The general mortgage 4hs
lost ground with the rest. The de-
cline was marked in the As of 1925,

BILE 412s. 1t is generally believed that
what is happening is the recording OF
losses for income tax purposes.
Railroad Issues Decline.
The weakness in St Paul issues
was accompanied by declines in the
Seaboard Air Line and the Erie bonds.
Missouri Pacific general As also lost
ground. and some divisional issues.
generally inactive, were sacrlhced. ST

dropped over a point and half. Whlie
the adjustments, which were weak

than the speculative bonds. Northern
