this year we have never had more than two women in our House of Represe sentatives and the voice of none has been louder than the peep of a chicken when it comes from the egg. The only woman in the next Congress will be Mrs. John l. Nolan, who Is there only as the death lega tee of her husband. In our two houses we have 531 members. and of these 530 are men. In other words womans part in making our laws Is as one Is to 530. In the new Con- Eress of Germany, the ratio of wom- en to men is as about one to 14.

 The Women of the Reichstag.
 The Reichstag has 469 members, and of these 25 put up their hair on the back of their heads and wear petticoats. Their petticoats are short. however and they wear com nonsense shoes. They stand firm on their feet and walk with a swing. They are not figure-heads in the work of the chamber. They have places on almost all the committees and their voices are often heard on the floor. They represent every one of the many national parties. Two belong to the democrats, eight to the Independent socialists, two to the

 No Sex in Brains.
 But, Frau Dr. Schrieber," said I. do you women in the Reichstag work independently of the men and along lines of your own?"
 "No.' replied the woman statesman. We work together. There is no sex in brains. I believe that woman is psychically and intellectually the equal of man, and that her munitions and reasoning powers enable her to deal quite as well with all public and domestic questions. Just now many important matters of legisla- tfon relate to domestic questions and they especially affect women. We de- vote much of our time to such sub jects. We have the high cost of liv- ing, the housing conditions, child welfare. education and other such things in which we women are vital ly interested and in which we can think as straight and decide as we'll as the men. Just now the economic situation here is one of life and death and 1t oyershadows all others.

 The Future.
 But can you continue to exist?' asked. What is to be the future of Germany" 4
 Dear MT. Carpenter" replied Frau Dr. Schreiber, If l could answer truly that question I would be the greatest woman in the world. The chief trouble with us here in Ger many is that we are not masters of our fate. The decision as to things of the future has been taken out of our ! hands. We are at the mercy of will not say our enemies-but of other nations. and our future de- pends upon them. I do not like that word enemies I never used it. even during the war. l like to think of the whole world as one. and to be- lieve that in the bottom of their souls all other peoples are really sympa- | thetic with us. But as long as we can have no independent action it is | difficult for us to do anything to- wards the betterment of ourselves in the future, and l might say, also, l for the betterment of the world"

Women Members Of German Rechstag Powerful Factor

communists, two to the Bavarian peoples party, three to the German democrats, who have, all together, los members in the Reichstag.
 Who They Are.
 All of these women are indepen- dent thinkers and the most of them come up from the ranks. Of the whole number, only three have had a complete university education and two of these are democrats. Of the three members of the German peo- ple's party, one owns factory and she is good business woman, one has been divorced and has married again, and two were the teachers and principals of schools before they were elected to Congress. Of the plain German democrats, pr. Gertrnd Banner is a well known advocate of womans rights and of woman's edu- cation. and pr. Marie Lueders has long been at the head of movements for women. l am told there is one woman who served her term in a factory before she came to manage the machinery of this new republic and that another once was servant maid, while a third was an editor when she was elected. Of the eight independent socialists, one has worked as 1aborer, and she is es- pecially aggressive. The same is true of Klara Zetkin, the communist who might be said to be the most energetic of all the female members, being famous for her loud and long speeches.
 From Washtub to Reichs-Council
 An important part Of the new Ger man republic Is the Reichsrat, which must give Its assent to all bills be- fore they can be introduced into the Reichstag. This body has 326 mem bers, of whom five are women. One represents the commercial employees, another the domestic employees who are conservative and third the em- ployes who are radical. The last woman member has risen from the washtub tC one of the highest posi- tions in Germany. She has to deal with such matters as the fixed hours for servant girls and their vacations, and she insists that servant ought to have a vacation independent of the will of her employer. She is plain but very aggressive. Another woman represents the Housewives' and still another is representative of the Union of Empoyes.
 In the Prussian Legislature.
 The women of Germany do not con- fine their work to the national Con gress, however. Everyone of the state legislatures has its women rep resentatives. Take, Prussia, for in stance, a state which includes about three-fifths of the whole German population. It adopted. a constitu- tion in 1920 by which every female over 20 years of age has the right to vote, and to aid-in eleeting the diet and council which make the state laws and practically govern that country.
 There are 42S members In the Prus- sian diet, and of these 43 are women. In other words, they form more than one-tenth of the legislators. The Ger man national party has 75 members and of the five females among them three are teachers. The German peoples party has six women mem- bers. One of them is a housewife and the others are teachers. There

Austin Threatens Mass Meeting And

Unless the whole crowd at the Birmingham prohibition enforcement office resign, I am going to hold a great mass meeting and present to the Birmingham public documentary evidence substantiating my charges against them" Connie W. Austin. whose statement accompanying his resignation as general prohibition agent last week created furore at Washington, declared Saturday. "I am going to wait reasonable length of time and see what action is taken at Washington. My meet ing will be held either in Woodrow Wilson park or in theatre"
