LEADERSHIP

Women are not taking the lead
In either America or Russia the
two countries in which most Of
the old has been scrapped and
the new is most surely on It's
way. Mis- Katherine Anthony, the
author, declared last night in a
coast-to-coaSt radio speech on
Women as Rulers" under the
auspices Of the National Woman's
Party.
She attributed this to the in.
creaSing mechanization OF so
ciety. Miss Anthony is best
known for her biographies OF
Catherine the Great and Queen
Elizabeth.
Miss Anthony said:
'If you look about the Amer
lean scene for dominating
women, you see but few of
them. You perceive them in
all sorts Of places where YOU
formerly would have missed
them, but you don't see them
on the board of cOmmissars in
Soviet Russia or i'm the Presi-
dents Cabinet in Washington.
"Great rulers need great
physical reserves. and we have
seen the devastating effects of
four to eight years in the
White House i'm our time.
When we recall that Queen
Elizabeth and Catherine the
Great, not to mention Marie
Theresa and Queen ViCtO. ia.
kept it up for a generation we
are amazed at their sheer
physical prOwesS.
'It is not lack of force and
energy that keeps women in
the rear instead of in the van
guard nowadays. They are
either waiting for a more har-
mOniOus and less One-Side world
to dawn upon us, or they are
slowly adjusting themselves to
the present"
