Mrs. Oliver II. ?. Belmont. presi-
dent of the National Woman's party,
started something" when she declar-
cd recently that marriage is a sort of
slavery" so far as the woman in the
case is concerned. From one end OF
| the country to the other, sarcastic re-
plies have been hurled in the direc-
ton of the noted suffrage leader. Now
the various editors have taken up her
declaration and in turn are amusing
themselves with it, although, natural
ly, there are number who insist on
treating it seriously.
"In an ace when women as well as
men have come TO have decided opin-
ions about what they should do, about
what they should not do, spend or not
spend. earn or fail to earn" the Day
ton News feels, 1T is becoming in-
creasingly apparent that much of the
difficulty which enters into domestic
infelicity centcrs about the subject of
income. The 'clinging vine type of
woman, regarding whom Mrs. Belmont
speaks, does not represent American
womanhood any more than that mas
culinc type which INDUCES in any inn
pulse which comes to the mind. There
must be some medium standard be-
tween the two which will put mar
riage on more sacred and substantial
basis and afford to home life in Amer
lea more dependability. Discouraged
women. not unlike discouraged men,
soon find sufficient cause for taking
out of fireside activities everything
that should enter into Them"
Divorce Court the Gate.
Use by Mrs. Belmont of the word
slavery is decidedly questionable, as
the Memphis News Scimitar sees IL.
because "in a manner men and wom-
en-, whether married or single, are
practically without freedom to en-
croach on the rights of others. This
is not slavery. but justice. There was
never time when women were more
| independent than they are today. III
marriage is a sort of slavery. as Mrs.
Belmont says, on the other hand d.
vorce is the recourse for enancipa-
ton. When marriage is irksome wom-
| en- no longer endure it. They seek re-
lief through the courts aud the rec
ords indicate that it is forthcom-
ing
The Little Rock Democrat rather
feels "Mrs. Belmont was exclted, '
and suggests "in the language of the
office sage. Saint that helluva state
of affairs" Mrs. Belmont knows as
much about the average American as
we know about why the circle can't
be squared or why a pterodacyl de-
cided to fly instead of walk during
the latter mart of its career. II Mrs.
Belmont will make brief pilgrimage
into the land Of real folk, where men
have TO work as many as seven hours
day. she will find her ideal. The
trouble is she simply is talking with
out knowing whereof she speaks"
Call IL Loose Talk"
Incidentally. the Peoria Transcript
points out. "however just may be her
condemnation Of those who do not be-
lieve in the absolute economic. social
and moral equality of the sexes. Mrs.
Belmont will not discourage marriage
BY her pessimism. The slavery in mar
riage is largely bunk. unless it be
self-imposed. The relic Of forgot
| ten day--a man who insists upon
| holding his wife as n ehattel--is fast
disappearing. Instead, men are be-

COUNTERFEIT $40
NOTES ARE BEING
CIRCULATED HERE
Plant Was Reported De-
stroyed in Mexico Some
Time Ago.

Counterfeit notes of the $50 dcnoln-
ination of tae Central National Bank
of San Angelo and printed in MEXICO
are still being struggled into this
country although the counterfeitins
plant issuing the counterfeit notes was
reported destroyed several months ago
by the Mexican government.
Aurelia Zamora. Mexican woman
living at Nueva Laredo. was apprc-
hendcd this week by Deputy Unitef
States Marshal Allen Walker white
she was attempting to pass eight
counterfeit bills on a Laredo mer-
chant. according to Ed Tyrrell. secr"t
service operative in charge Of the
Texas district who has returned to
San Antonio from Laredo where he
has been investigating the case.
The woman was arraigned before
the United States Commissioner at
Laredo on complaint charging her
with bringing into this country and
attempting to pass counterfeit notes.
She was placed under $1,000 bond to
await the action Of the federal grand
jury.
1t was reported at the federal build :

States government will again take Up
the matter of reported counterfeitins
operations in the southern republic
and Mexican officials will again be re-
quested to exert their efforts to stamp
out counterfeiting plants specializing
in American money. Sucn cooperation
would be of mutual benefit TO both
countries. it has been pointed out.
since the United States government IS
in a position to assist the Mexican Of
ficials in cases of another nature. Ne
gotiations along this line are already
underway. it has been revealed. The
exact nature of the reciprocal assist
anee TO be given by this government
has not been disclosed.
For over year, $50 counterfeit
notes have been in circulation. Sew
eral notes were discovered in San An
tonic and other cities Of the countrv-
y counterfeiting plant was finally DIS
covered in Mexico. The Mexican Of
ficials, according to reports received
here. confiscated and destroyed the
plant.
While II is possible that another
counterfeiting plant may have. been
established in Mexico. or that the one
reported destroyed was not the plant
from which the counterfeit $50 bills
were issued. it is probable. several fed
eral officials believe. that the notes
seized in Laredo came from supply
of notes on hand when the original
plant was destroyed.

COOLIDGE AT HOME
TO MAGNUS JOHNSON
Senator Says That
President Made Good Impression
Upon Him Today.

Washington, d. 'C.--Magnus John
son, new Farmer-Labor senator from
Minnesota, conferred for 20 minutes
today with President Coolidge and his
visit to the White House offices caused
a stir that seldom has been equalled
by the calls of ambassadors or even
princes and potentates.
Accompanied by former Representa-
tive Baer of North Dakota, George
d, Brewer, his political adviser, and
Miss Josephine LOTUS, his secretary,
Mr.. Johnson arrived a few minutes
before the time Of his appointment,
and was ushered into the Office Of
Secretary Slemp.
While waiting to see the president,
Johnson talked with Mr.. Slemp, who
remarked that the new senator was
much different in appearance from
photographs which had always por-
trayed him with a pitch -fork or some
other farm implement. He was intro
duced by Mr. Slemp to Secretaries
Work and Wallace, and Senator Har-
reid, Republican, Oklahoma, who also
were waiting to see the president.
Emerging from his conference with
Mr.. Coolidge, which incidentally con-
sumed more time than the president
allotted to any of the more than a
dozen callers today, Senator Johnson
was besieged by newspaper men with
inquiries as to his impression Of
the president.
"The president made a very nice
impression on me-" he said, and then
in true senatorial style warded off
other questions with replies that he
was not privileged to discuss presi-
Dental conference. He admitted, how
ever, that most time had been devoted
to discussing the farm situation in
the northwestern states and said he
had presented plan for alternating
distress among wheat growers there.
While posing for photographers with
Secretary Wallace, the secretary men
toned something about 1--WE farmers"
and Senator Johnson with a chuckle
exclaimed: "'We farmers what do
you think of that?"
