WOMEN OF PARAGUAY PREFER

She Says.
BIZ GRETCHEN SMITH.

The newly appointed representative
Of the Paragusvan Republic on the
Inter-American Commission Of Women,
Sonora Carmen O. de Ynsfran, wife OF
the charge d'affaires. cordially vel
coined her caller, who. realizing the i'm
portsnce Of the serioras recent ap-
pointnpnt, turned her conversation
upon the subject Of politics
Commissioner Ynsfran smiled mod
'You know" she explained, Il really
know so little about IL all In fact,
nv appointment by President Guggiari
came to me as great surprise, How
ever. / am really very happy TO be on
the commission. as 1t will give me an
opportunity to study subject waich

as equal rights" were concerned, the
women Of Paraguay were generally
apathetic.
Men Good TO Us"
"I suppose the reason" she explained.
sis that our men have been 50 good to
US and have permitted us unofdcially TO
have voice in the government to such
an extent that we have never felt the
necessity to ask for the vote. OF course.
I think It Is q good thing for women TO
vote. as 1t Is certain that an intelligent
woman is better able TO Judge, In politi-
Gated man. On the other hand, think
il Is unfortunate for women to try to be
like men and resort TO fighting for So
their real mission as women.

above all else, her home" she con-
tinued. i think also, she Is important
as q teacher ana as q worker for the
