woman would be permitted to hold public office and house

Htertes have the combination of all three which
is not uncommon in Germany must drive them mad.
The Female Mnd'
Mussoini remains far interesting than Hitler be-
cause Mussoni has mind. Here the requirements
he puts down for the art of politics. "A knowledge of men
and of the psychology of crowds experience and
ure of daring power OF control over oneself and do
mnion over others clear and profound knowledge of
history and leading economic geographic and social prob
lems originality balance and synthesis. And he adds
that the female mind is generally analytical and
given to details and her temperament mpulsive and in
capable of being influenced by suggestion
Despsing the ballot even for men, who have been in
the habit of using it, Mussolin naturally in
turning spigot which will pour out several million
useless votes. He willing to grant the
vote to women 'as gives away toy" But when
more serious problems there talk of
votes for women In their place there are the duties of
the home and the vast field of social and charitable
vice. They constitute the principal field Mussoin has
assigned to feminine Fascists"
Russia Feminized
The attitude of these dictators is we'll worth thinking
about. The third dictatorship, in Russia, profoundly
feminzed granting equality to degree unheard of
in deocracies and receiving in return cooperation in
the field and the workshop and the councils of state
which nation has ever enjoyed before Two kinds of
states may be rising in Europe, separated not much
by their politics by their treatment of women and
their conception of the proper relations between and
women. Of these two the Russian far nearer to our
own.
Mussoni is contemptuous of the rise of women in Eng
land and America. Since the smaller, more liberal par
ties in England always gave place to while both
conservatives and Liberals OF wartime opposed to
suffrage it natural that the first prominent women
in office should be radicaand consequently Mussoln
has little for them He to have heard that
few officeholders in America turned out to be
not exactly superior to menn their power to resist graft
hbltlon which supposed to be cherished by women
is going. (He is astoundingy uptodae and informed
ruler)
Breaking Through
Yet the emergence of in the political field is
only reflection of generalZed emancipation. It
suggests interrelation between the sexes which
has little to do with So long women are reegated

main Wves mothers and mstresses and not to step over
the line into general human interests The woman in
America who goes alone into speakeasy may 90 alone
into politics. The French however freely she sips

Is more important than hostile ideas about capitalism and
communism. There are biological consequences which

against the civilization of man-made superority as
