The Blame for Domestic Debts
Is Largely Woman's
By KATHLEEN NORRIS
AMERICAS MOST POPULAR WOMAN WRITER FOR WOMEN" q

There was a time in my life when
] thought debts-just petty domestic
debts-were an inevitable part of life.
Like most children, l heard good
deal of worried discussion of them,
and to a child's comprehension any
thing that troubles the grownups is
serious indeed.
Then there came a time when a GER
tain vulpine visitor lurked whining
Just outside my own door for several
hard years, and at that time feared
debt as a pestilence might have been
feared, and my feeling for persons
who carried a load of it was simply
pity and sympathy.
But | am older now, less fearful,
kzxse. tolerant. And from a resting
place half way up the lorS bill, 1

new vision. And nowadays the only
word / have for debt is "unneces-
sary," and the only word for debtors

Always Behind.
There are families-hundreds OF
them, thousands of them-who strug-
Gle along through the years, always a
few hundred dollars behind the pro
cession. They come TO have curious
quality, these men and women woo
take a sort of financial Gripping for
granted; they become mentally ana
morally stale. -,
Their souls and minds are like a
kitchen that is never quite cleaned
there is always little garbage in the
sink, a crumpled tablecloth on the ia
BILE, ashes sitting out OF the stove
crumbs on the floor.
They wash dishes, yes. and they
sweep, but they never quite complete
one job before the next comes along.
One Of the paradoxes is that per
sons in debt are always much more
extravagant than the others who keep
an orderly relationship with grocer
and landlord. For if the upper side.
board drawer is jammed with unpaid
bills--milk and market and doctor
and dentist and milliner's bills
there is no particular reason why one
more bill should not be added.

organize is just as fundamental and
necessary as is the right of capital to
organize
But because President Harding
recognized and asserted the right of
labor to organize he did not assert
nor acknowledge the right of organ
lied labor to dictate to or dominate
over that portion of labor which
chooses not to organize. In his address
at Marion, Ohio, on July 4, 1922, he
said:
""The foremost thought in the Con-
stitution is the right to freedom and
the pursuit of happiness. Men must be
free to live and achieve. Liberty is
gone in America when any man is de-

ORGANIZATION, NOT DICTATION

''Mr. Goompers' recent warning to
the Republican party not to take a
position antagonistic to labor was a
wholly gratuitous proceeding on his
part not warranted by anything the
Republican party or it's leaders have
done, and was probably inspired by
his well-known life long support of
the Democratic party" declares the
Republican Publicity Association,
through its President, Hon. Janathan
Bourne, Jr.
THE Republican party is not now,
never has been and never will be in
any way antagOnistic to the rights and
interests of labor. Whether it shall
ever be antagonistic to union labor de-
ponds entirely on what union labor
demands. The Republican party is for
justice, and union labor will find that
party working in harmony with it so
long as union labor demands no more
nor less than justice.
$50 far as President Harding is
concerned, his attitude on the sub
ject of labor is clear. AS a publisher
he operated union shop. He probab-
ly did so because he believed that
plan of employment most satisfactory
to both employer and employee. His
relations with his employees have al
ways been satisfactory.
"On August 10, 1922, in an address
to Congress, President Harding men
toned the benefits derived from or
CARNATIONS of labor and said: 1T is of
public interest to preserve them and
DrOfit nv the prOOd that is in fhano hI1f
we must check the abuses and the ex-
cesses which conflict with public in
terest precisely as we have been pro-
gressively legislating to prevent capt.
talistic, corporate or managerial DOM
nation which is contrary to public
welfare
"This was in confederation of the
sentiment expressed by him in his adj
dress to Congress, December z, 1921,
when he said: The right Of labor to
