Easy DiUorce, Smokes for Women,

That's Platform of Nurse
Who Would Be Mayor
of Boston,
BY HAROLD MATSON
NEA Sert,ice Wrifer

1OSTON, Aug. 5.-Staid old
X Boston is going to get a
IL shock or two this fall when
Mary V. King, nurse and politi-
clan, cuts loose with her cam
paign to be elected mayor.
In fact, the fight that Miss King
promises would stir most any city.
And if she is not elected she will
not have failed for lack of plat
form-for if ever a candidate had
a platform Miss King has one.
Miss King. in her thirties, bob
haired, with a strong tendency to-
ward trousers and squared-toed
shoes land if not trousers at least
pockets in her skirts is building
her platform of sharp-edged planks
and she is planning her cam
paign with no 1T gives me great

Her Platform

Against prohibition.
Women should not be allowed to
wear long hair.
Women should smoke any time
and anywhere men smoke.
For easy divorce and hard mar
riage.
Good roads, good health and
morals.
No political speeches.
Il don't believe in prohibition,
she tells you tersely, because it is
reactionary, impossible and con-
ducive to law violation.
IT believe in bobbed hair because
1t is efficient. Long hair is insani-
tary-it is hot on the head and
hairpins are tormentors that have
destroyed women's Commemorative
abilities for ages. AS mayor 1
would see that women employees
bob their hair-purely as a meas
ure of efficiency, you understand. ;"
And smoking? Oh. it's not i'm
portant. Women should smoke, to
be sure. Why not? Or, nobody
should smoke. Smoking doesn't
hurt anybody-nor help anybody"
Miss King dismisses the idea with
a shrug, but her idea will provoke
more than a shrug on Beacon Hill
where the descendants of the May
flower are still landing on Ply
mouth Rock.
Yes, 1 would fight for good
streets and rigid traffic lows" she
comedies. but first I would pay at.
tention to marriage laws and
health and morals.
Tests to Marry
Persons desiring TO marry
would first have to pass physical
tests. If they were in marriage
able health then they could an
nounce their intentions and wait
for three months or so-time
enough to think about It,
The idea of having a feminine
city government impresses Miss
King as being an important ex-
pertinent. Right now she is en-
deavoring to impress women's or.
CARNATIONS with the idea that they
should support her.
Miss King knows, for she is a
professional nurse, that normal
mans brain weighs forty-f1ve
ounces against normal women's
forty-four ounces-but she does
not concede that woman's lighter
brain-weight makes her incapable
OF taking mans place.
Anyhow, I am not convinced
that men use that extra ounce"
she asserts.

continued. This is only one OF many
illustrations which could be given.
The report 81 the Inter Church
activity Of the social service commits
sions Of the different churches are
fresh IN the minds Of the public.
More recently the churches have
been taking an active interest IN the
race question. both at home AMI
abroad as evidenced by the recent
action Of the churches In protesting
against the action Of Congress In the
matter Of japanese immigration.
This activity Of the churches has
often been criticized but II is>ireyi-
