Business, Professional Women
ReCeiUe QUESTIONABLE REPORT

ing Canada, England and the United
States in tri-national broadcast.
Wages tagging far behind those
of men, determinations against mar
ried women in Federal and munich
pal service, and giving of preference
to men in the granting of jobs are
not necessarily occasions for dis
couragement to business and profess
sional women" says Miss Lena Ma
desin Phillips, New York, Interna-
tional Federation president. But
they form rather a strong incentive
for mobilizing forces to make a de-
termined stand for that equality of
economic status which is their due
on the basis of services rendered"
The report for the United States
revealed tendency to discriminate
against married women. Figures
compiled by the Department of
Labor showed that women's wages
lag far behind those of men. In nine
leading industries in which large
numbers are employed, their COM
pensation ranges from Is to "a per
cent of salaries paid men in similar
jobs.
Austria Reports Setback
Scandinavian countries, Finland
Czechoslovakia, Great Britain and
her dominions, according to the re-
port, showed more advantageous
conditions for women who work. In
Belgium, Hungary, Poland and
Switzerland attempts at discrimina-
ton were reported to have been held
in check. Austrian organizations
reported definite SetbackS.
obviously our safety lies in
awareness of our position; in the
mobilization of all wage-earning
women to combat discrimination;
and in a consistent campaign of
education as to the qualifications
and equipment OF women for re-
sponsible positions" Miss Phillips
says.
Speakers on the program are to
include Miss Phillips, Miss Caroline
Haslett, London, chairman of the
Council of the British Federation;
Miss Mary c. Mount, Hamilton, On
tario, president of the Canadian
Federation; Miss Charl Ormond
Williams, Washington, president Of
the national federation
This is the third transatlantic

from a meeting in Paris in 1884 and

HOUSE GETS NEW
SECURITY PLAN
Scott Would Institute ,Ex-
tensive Program in Dis
trict for Test.

The House District Committee,
which is now struggling with a score
or more important pieces of legislation
was confronted today with new and
extensive social security plan.
The scheme is embodied in a bill
introduced by Representative Scott,
Democrat. of California, who contends
in the prologue. that sit is the obliga-
ton Of the Government to insure
every worker against loss Of income
due to unemployment, old age or other
disability"
Scott wants the plan to be first tried
out in the District, because he believes
the Nations Capital is good testing
ground for much broader social in
surance than prescribed under either
the national or local social security
acts.
Broader Than Present Act.
The bill is far-reaching in scope. 1t
is designed to provide for more ade-
uuate relief than in the act passed
by Congress last year for unemployed
and aged, and, in addition, it covers
partial unemployment and maternity
aid.
Scott said the measure has the sup
port of the District Association of
Social Insurance, which consists Of Is
affiliated labor organizations with a
combined membership of 1000. The
association, he explained, is planning
to circulate petitions for signatures in
dorsing the bill.
Unemployment insurance would be
provided under the measure for all
classes of workers, whether they work
on the farm or in profession. OF
whether they are self-employed. More
over, it guarantees them an income
while unemployed Of an amount equal
to their average earnings up to $50 q
week and not less than $40 week
The scale of relief also would provide
additional sums for dependents. A
man with five dependents, for in
stance, colud receive s45 a week.

Old-age insurance is provided or

The bill carries an authorization OF
500, 100000 to be paid out of the
Federal Treasury. Additional funds
may be raised. it suggests, by taxing
high incomes, corporate surpluses. and
"other accumulated wealth" Pay roll
taxes and sales taxes are prohibited.
To be eligible for aid, unemployed
persons would be required to accept
employment offered them, unless the
employment carries a condition that
they join company unions or not join
labor organizations.
Creates Commission.
The bill also creates a District
Workers Social Insurance Commission
to administer the plan. 1t would be
composed of one commissioner and 81,
members. The commissioner would bt

Notes Receipts of $656,829.
Reading from an account sheet OF

He said club dues accounted for
$4,000, new club members brought
S94 900, and books and literature sales
amounted to 100000.
From regional Offices was received
$15l, 900. This, Clements explained
included some Of the above items.
Implications exist, however, in the
figures.
Sullivan then asked total deposits
in the City Bank of Washington.
Clements explained that four ac-
counts were opened there, as various
units Of o. A. r. P.
mo accounts were maintained in
any other bank here" Clements said
will you now give us written au-
thority to go to this bank and obtain
the deposit figures for these four ac-
counts for the months in question:"
Clements assented and messenger
was dispatched.
Officers Paid Expenses.
Clements yesterday informed the
committee that the State area
officials. under contract with the
organization, agree to pay al
their expenses, such as Office rent,
transportation, etc. No check of these
expenditures is kept by the national
organization, Clements said, the con-

ner, Sullivan laid detailed ground
work involving personnel and organi-
zation methods of the movement pre-
paratory to revealing how tremendous
sums Of money had rolled into spon-
sors of the plan.
An indication Of this harvest was
given when Clements admitted that
