Henry Eats Spinach

When Secretary of Agr1cul-
ture Henry A. Wallace came to
Washington to take over his job,
the demands of duty were so
great that he ate a cold "box"
lunch each day.
After numerous meals Of this
kind, a letter was sent here
from Des Moines, Iowa, princi-
pal city of Mr.. Wallace's home
State, to Paul Appleby, the Sec
retary'S assistant.
The letter said, in effect:
'Tt has just occurred to us
that Henry may be up to his old
trick of pleading too much work
as an excuse for not getting a
hot lunch somewhere. If this
is true, make him go out for his
meals as his health once suf-
fered when he tried the desk
lunch theory in DeS MOineS.
The Secretary was prevailed
upon, and agreed to get a hot
lunch. He also said he would
play handball for exercise.
Now he gets the hot lunch,
but he only kept the handball
promise once.

Ask Code Equality

The first resolution dealt with
determinations against women
in the NRA codes. It reads as
follows:
"Whereas, the Division of In
duStry of the d. G. Federation
of WOmen's Clubs is interested
in equality for men and women
in business, industry, and pro-
fessiOn: whereas. the National
Recovery Administration is now
adopting codes for various lines
of industry; now therefore be
It resolved, that the D. G. Fed
Grafton Of WOmen's Clubs urges
that no code shall discriminate
against women workers in re-
gard to wages. hours. or other
conditions of labor; and be it
further resolved, that a copy
of this resolution be sent to
the President of the United
States, to Gen. Hugh John
son, to the Secretary of Labor,
and to the press"
The second resolution was
made to reendorse a resolution
passed by the organization in
1881. 1t is:
Resolved, that the proposed
equal rights amendment to the
u. S. Constitution reading:
That men and women shall
have equal rights throughout
the United States and in every
place subject to their jurisdic-
ton; Congress shall have the
power to enforce this article by
appropriate legislatiOn,' be made
the subject of study by the
General Federation of WOmen's
Clubs"
After the d b. a tie of Mrs.
Greathouse and Mrs. Friedman,
members of the club were per-
mitted two minutes each to
speak either for or against the
question of equal rights. And
then those entitled to vote
were asked to do so on the two
resolutions.
Both were adopted.

Feminists Split

Mrs. William F. Friedman,
chairman of the Department Of
the Legal Status of Women for
the D. c. League of Women
Voters, was the speaker against
the amendment. She said:
"This question is a basic one
In American feminism and it
splits the feminiStS Of America
completely. The emphasis on
strict legal equality with men is
foolish and strained. 1t is an
effort to be exactly like men in
every way, to have everything
they have, just because they
have it. That is silly. 1t is the
kind of reaction the first fem
inists had, away back in the
Nineteenth century. But we
are not men, we are women.
We don't want to be men, we
want to be women. This is a
mans world, and it has been
so for a long time. Our job in
this day and age is to make
place for women as women, in
all the new and different ways
that women can enrich and con-
tribute to our common life.
"Instead of fighting men and
demanding to be just like men,
we should continue to find our
own means to a rich and re-
leased life as women. Women
are the bearers of life, the con-
servers Of life and resources.
and their influence in those
ways is needed in this world
of men," =
The special meeting of the
federation was called to discuss
and vote on two resolutions laid
over from the January meeting.
The speakers were obtained to
present opinion for and against
them.

Asserting that "the equal
rights amendment to the Consti-
tuition is absolutely necessary
to remove the determinations
against women and that the
aims of Susan B. Anthony can
not be attained unless the
amendment be adopted" Mrs.
Rebekah S. Greathouse, for
mer United States Assistant
Attorney and a present mem
ber of the National Woman'S
Party, took the stand for the
amendment in a debate before
the District Federation Of Wo-
mems Clubs at a special meet
ing yesterday in Barker Hall.
In her argument Mrs. Great
house said:
II believe the amendment to
the Constitution giving equal
rights to men and women is
the only way that women will
secure equal rights under the
law, and must be adopted be-
fore women can achieve the
equality in all walks Of life
which Susan B. Anthony de-
sired for them. The COnStitu-
tiOn, as a guarantOr of Sunda-
mental rights, is incomplete
without it. The Supreme Court
inter rpretS the Constitution
against a background Of the
common law of 1889, at which
time women had practically no
rights, and as long as the Su-
preme Court used this principle
Of Interpretation, it is necessary
to have wOmen's rights defined
IN positive terms.
"H American women in 1889
had been as well educated as
they are today and as articu-
late as they are today, the
equal rights amendment would
have been a part of the Origi-
nal Constitution"

Hassenstab was doing surveying
work and had a group of Is native
boys in his party. One of them
Travelled 200 miles by bicycle and on
foot twice each week taking and
bringing mail. Others of the Is were
pack boys, cooks, camp makers and
did work of other kinds.
Hassenstab told Of shooting eleph-
ants, buffaloes, rhinos, hippopotam-
uses and other wild animals. To the
surprise of many listeners, he stated
that SIS hunting license is requir-
ed for shooting "small'' game which
includes lions, tigers, deer, etc. while
$100 license is required to take
elephants, rhinos and other large
game. A $100 license allows the own
er to take but one elephant but for
another $50 he can have a second.
Only two are allowed to one hunter
in one year. The section of the con-
tinent he was in is under the Eng
lish flag.
Indicating their extreme interest,
the boys asked questions for more
