Launching a vigorous drive
against Communism in the United
States, Walter I. Plant, District
of Columbia Deputy of the Knights
of Columbus, last night demanded
immediate and decisive action
against a condition which he label
led a menace.
Speaking over a nationwide

was no longer something merely
to talk about and said the Knights
of Columbus was beginning a drive
to acquaint the people of America
with the full danger.
Pointing out that when the
American people tolerated social
they invited Communism,
Plant said that the correction of
working conditions was the big
weapon in the hands of the people
in their fight.

GIN MARRIAGE
BAN CHANGES
SOUGHT
Exceptions to 3-Day
Waiting Period One
of Proposals

Efforts to revise the proposal to
ban gin. marriages" in the Cap
ital, was reported favorably by the
House District Committee yester.
day will be made by individual Dis
trict Committee members when the
bill comes before the House for
action, probably Monday.
An attempt to seek exceptions
to the provision which would
change existing law by providing
that the application for the mar
riage license must be made three
days prior to the issuance of the
license will be made by Representa-
tive George Bates ORO of Massa-
chuSetts.
Exemptions Sought
He said that in his State, where
a five-day waiting period is neces-
sary, the court is allowed to make
exceptions in emergency" cases,
so that a couple can get married
on the day the license is applied
for. He explained:
There are numerous emer-
gencieS which might arise. One
example of this is in the case
of a couple who has fixed their
wedding date and several days
before the scheduled date the
man might find that he has to
go out of town on business.
think we should have such a pro-
vision in the bill which the com.
mittee approved yesterday"
On the other hand, Representa-
tive william Schultz CD of
Indiana feels that 16, which is
the age at which a female could
be married under the provisions
of the bill, is too young. He sought
to have the committee increase
this age to 18 before the measure
was ordered reported yesterday,
and he indicated he will seek to
have the House so amend the bill.
Age Limits Argued
AS reported by the committee,
the bill provides that male
must be at least 10 years old and
a female is before they can obtain
marriage license. The existing
law here provides that the male
must be 16 and the female IA.
The bill was introduced several
weeks ago by Representative Ever
EFT Dirksen (R) of Illinois, who
became interested in the subject
after reading of the child mar
riages recently given SO much
publicity.

Though Mrs. Herbert Seymour
Howard studied art at Corcoran as

begin to work seriously until seven

Today she is a very busy person
indeed. Orders for crayon draw

when the subject lives in Boston
and photograph is the only
model she has.
She specializes in children,
though she has done some beauti-
full heads of famous adults. But
Mrs. Howard likes to draw children
best, perhaps because she is the
mother of two sons and a daugh-
ter.
She works at home-has a studio

Mrs. Howard is a charming lit.
tie lady with great brown eyes
and curly, prematurely white hair.
AS Mary McCauley, she was one
of the prettiest and most popular
Washington ever had.
She is both a Navy daughter
and wife. Her husband, Captain
Howard, was assistant naval at
tache in London for four years.
The family have only been back
in THE States" a short time.
Their eldest son is studying archi-
lecture at Cambridge University.
Apparently he inherits his moth

draws well. He has been working
