Just
Every
Day
Sense

THERE is almost continuous
l. acclaim that homemaking and
motherhood are the highest ca
reers for women. Yet in The list
of the twelve greatest members
of our sex, which recently has
been made public, there's not
mother among them. A few have
children, it's true, but they were
not selected for that.
There's a novelist, social well
fare worker, a chief of federal
bureau, a suffragist, couple Of
teachers, a lecturer, an actress, a
member of the National Academy
of Science, a singer, an artist, and
the wife of a former President.
Is it at all strange that the av-
erage intelligent girl is beginning
to understand that the loud talk
about the great work Of mother
hood is mostly blah?
She hears countless comments
upon the subject. She is told that
no individual can do nobler work
than to rear fine citizens for ner
country. She learns, by dint of
keeping her eyes and ears open,
that homemaking and child
bearing are the acme Of feminine
endeavor. But she notices that
when the honors are handed out
they go in another direction.
4 q
MO woman yet has been pro-
IN claimed as great either for
the number or the quality of her
children. At least, not until after
she was dead.
How encouraging it would have
been for the real mothers of this
country, if just once, some person
distinguished only for her chill
dren might have been included in
this list. Why should not Mrs.
Evangeline Lindbergh have had a
place there, since she is the
mother of the century's greatest
hero?
If we are to be consistent or
impressive when we say that no
man is greater than the woman
who gave him birth, then decid-
edly Mrs. Lindbergh, whose son is
hailed as a perfect specimen of
twentieth century manhood,
should not be overlooked when we
select outstanding women.
There's no point in telling the
girls that motherhood is an
achievement when we give it no
national notice and very little
material reward.

|DORAN 0. KS GRAPE
|SALE BY DRUGGISTS
Action on Concentrate Barred
as Pharmacists Meet.
Letter Withheld.

How a grape concentrate Of FruiteIn-
dustries, Inc, has further confused the
prohibition situation bobbed up today
when It was learned that Dr. James M.
Doran, commissioner of industrial al
conol, had written letter to Fruit In
clistTies Tentatively approving the
concentrate as an article for sale by
druggists who hold prescriptions for
medicinal liquor.
The Doran letter was referred to last
night at meeting of the District Re-
tail Druggists Association at George
washington University Pharmacy School.
but the text was not available at the
meeting.
DIR. Doran today admitted writing
such a letter, but was reluctant to give
out the text He explained, however,
his position. The sale of the concen-
trate by druggists, where the druggist
does not intend to violate the law con-
Pcerning alcoholic liquors, he said, will
not affect the druggists right to his
license to sell medicinal liquors.
1t is understood a principle some
what to this effect was inculcated in Dr.
Doran's letter to Fruit Industries, Inc
Director of Prohibition Woodcock OF
the Department of Justice. in a recent
letter to the Crusaders, declared that
where intent to violate the law could
be proven, prosecutions would follow.
Woodcock expressed himself emphatic
ally as believing that the sale Of anv
kind of beverage with the knowledge
that 1t was supposed to turn into wine
or Intoxicating liquor. violated the
spirit of the eighteenth amendment.
Several prosecutions against comnan'es
selling grape concentrate are pending
throughout the country in various
places
At the meeting of the druggists last
night. Paul Pearson, president of the
association. sharply criticized the atti-
tude of inspectors who go through the
drug stores of this city He said he be-
lieved they were not carrying out the
intent of Treasury Department DR..
Pearson said he believed that the de-
partment intended to help keep the drug
gists within the law by cooperation,
ard by pointing out helpfully how they
could best obey the law

trict Of Columbia, appointed by Presi-
dent George washington The monu-
nents were set out at every mile along
the original boundaries, with appro-
pirate inscriptions In the course of the
years, however. some of them have dis
appeared, and the fate of others has not
been happy.
One of them, below Alexandria, on
the Potomac shore, fell victim to a
dredging company. whose legal right to
disturb the monument was unquestion-
able. Another is on a front lawn of a
property owner who objects to its pres
ence there.
Some years ago the Daughters of the
American Revolution District Chapter)
obtained permission to mark the then
existing stones by inclosing them with
small iron lenses, 3 feet square. Since
the stones are practically all on private
property, however, the fences, as we'll
as the monuments, remain in place at
the pleasure of the property owner.

clared DR.. Pearson, ARE more anxious
to get you in trouble than to keep you
out"
The question of the concentrate was
brought before the meeting by Frank
Upton of Upton & Myers, druggists.
who said he had read the Doran letter
and thought it ought to be in the hands
of the drug association here for their
own protection.
He said the general tenor Of the let
ter was that druggists could sell the
concentrate without hazarding their
own medicinal liquor licenses. The
druggists should get copy of that
letter and have DR.. Doran certify it,
Upton said, so as to protect them in
the sale of the concentrate. The asso-
citation plans to get the copy.
Meeting with the druggists, the Dis
trict branch of the American Pharma-
cists' Guild last night outlined an edu-
cational and publicity campaign, in
charge of M. G. Gclstein. An annual
scholarship prize for outstanding mem
bers of the first, second and third
classes of the George Washington
School of Pharmacy was announced.

The D. A. r. proposal Is that the
Commissioners ask owners Of private
property on which the monuments stand
to deed to the District, as q patriotic
act, a tract 3 feet square surrounding
each monument. Such dedication, they
point out, would be particularly signifi-
cant at this time on account of the APP
preaching celebration Of the Bicen-

the setting out of the monuments.

 The Suez Canal Company is a curious survival in more ways than It the product of private enterprise and, indeed, of it's greatest monuments But it strange nowadays that one of the worlds greatest seaways should be run as profit making concern That ships should pay toll they pass through is natural way of charg ing but that the dues should be fixed with view to the payment of maximum dividends rathen than, the principles of public trust, to the provision of services at the lowest possible cost is an- achronism The company is predominantly French, and there 32 directors, of whom one is Dutch, ten British, and twenty-one French. These di- rectors are paid according to results and the re- suits are, from their point of view, highly satis factory. They get two per cent. of the net profits, and last year. according to a statement in the House of Commons each director received sum of about f4,000 on this basis. One wonders how many of the directors felt qualms about the receipt of this money doubts about their having really earned it, But perhaps the chief objection to these rates of pay is not that they far beyond what thirty-two gentlemen really by attending board meetings, if that is all they do, but the fact that the remuneration varies with the profits, so that when, now, shippers believe themselves to be overcharged it is to the personal advantage of the directors to maintain dues at the highest possible profit-making level. This is not merely not the principle of the public trust it is the direct opposite The British Government is supposed to have done very well out of its purchase of Canal shares, but it ought not to regard it's interest in the Canal simply a good speculative invest menth
