Federation Demands Equal
RIGHTS For Married Women

Durham, Feb. 15-Discrimination
against married women is economical
ly unsound, socially unjust, and I'M
constitutional, regardless of whether
it occurs in a state office or private
business, chorused officials of the
North Carolina Federation of Bust
ness and Professional WOmens clubs
who were in the city yesterday for a
meeting of the State board of direc-
tors. The meeting was called primarily
for the purpose of making plans for
the 18th annual state convention and
the completion of plans for the fed
eration's part in the annual obser-
vance of National Women's week next
month.
Miss Elizabeth Conrad, of Charlotte,
state president and Miss Johnsie
Cameron, of Rockingham, state legis-
lative chairman, told of a conference
which they and Mrs. T. w. Beckett,
of Raleigh, state legislative co-chair-
man, had in Raleigh Saturday with
State Commissioner of Agriculture w.
Kerr Scott The conference grew out
of the federation's protest of Com
! missioner SCOTS reported policy of
| firing all married women whose hus-
| bands are employed at good jobs"
Although Miss Conrad declined to
make public Commissioner SCOTS
statements to the committee that
talked at his office Saturday, she did
| declare that according to the state
ment made by Mr.. Scott, the method
| of employment in his office is in ac-
1 ~ ioia
| of the National and State Federation
of Business and Professional Women's
clubs as it is applied to the discrim-
nation against women"
The policy of the North Carolina
| federation, which is identical with
| that of the national federation, is de-
finitely opposed to the discrimination
against married women. The organi-
zation feels definite responsibility
! to protect the economic security Of
women and to enlarge the occupation
al opportunity for women. 1t is COM
mitted to program of determined
| opposition to any discrimination bas-
| ed on sex where employment or oc-
cupational opportunity are concerned
| Officials of the North Carolina fed
/ Grafton pointed out last night that the
! federation has cooperated with other
womens organizations in the fight to
! secure the repeal of section 213 of the
national economy act. Effective re-
| sistence was given during the past
year, too, to an attempt made in one
city of the state to boost the salaries
Of men teachers without according
similar boots to the remuneration Of
| women teachers.
| The women of the federation in
North Carolina rose up in arms when
the newspapers of the state began
carrying stories that quoted Scott as
i having his guns aimed at married wo-
men whose husbands are also employ

MARCH COURT WILL

Judge Grady Scheduled To
Preside Over Two Weeks
OF Sessions

Preparations are being made by
court officials for the regular March
term of Vance Superior Court, which
is to convene here on Monday, March
1, for two weeks. The first week will
be for criminal and the second for
civil cases. Judge Henry A. Grady,
of Clinton, is scheduled to preside.
Only a few cases of very serious
character are on the docket for the
criminal term, although there is a con-
siderable volume of minor actions to
be disposed of.
For the civil term there are no dam
age cases in which large amounts are
asked so far as was learned today
The number of divorce actions was
less than usual, it was stated at the
clerks office.

unsound and socially unjust. It is also
contrary to both the letter and the
spirit of the constitution which are
the fundamental law of our state and
national governments.
Thousands of women are painfully
employed in North Carolina, as every
one knows. I can assure you that
mighty few of them-even those with
husbands who have jobs-are at work
purely because they think such work
picnic. Although many women are
extremely reluctant to admit it, the
stern truth of the matter is that the
vast majority Of these thousands of
women who work in North Carolina
today do so solely because of econo-
mic necessity. Any policy that con-
templates discriminating against cit
liens and taxpayers becaue they have
husbands with jobs cannot fall to
place a vicious penalty on marriage
and the home.''

"DODSWORTH" A SPLENDID
FILM

AS a novel, Sinclair Lewis "Dods-
worth" was a best-seller. Adapted to
the stage by Sidney Howard, with
Walter Huston in the title role, it was
a smash hit and ran almost two years
on Broadway. Now, translated into
celluloid by the same writer, with
Huston again playing Sam Dodsworth
and given a magnificent production
by Samuel Goldwyn, 'Dodsworth"
has found it's ideal form. Combining
all the best features of the book and
the play, and adding several of it's
own, "Dodsworth" emerged on the
screen of the Vance Theatre last night
as the finest piece of entertainment
we have seen in many seasons.
Brilliantly acted by perfect cast,
headed by Huston, Ruth Chatterton,
Paul Lukas, Mary Aston and David
Niven this absorbing film tells the
story of Sam Dodsworth, a hard-work-
ing, successful middle-Western bust
ness man who retires to travel.
It is the essence of humanism to
think of man as a being with an end,
the end being the unfolding of his
own personality.

Correct Posture Is
Explained By Agent

Good posture is important not
only from the standpoint of poise
and confidence but from the stand
point OF health as we'll Mrs. M. AL
berta Harris, Pinal county home
demonstration agent advises for A.
H club boys and girls.
Mrs. Harris says small habits
may cause a change in posture
which may result in curvature OF
the spine. The habit of carrying
books under one arm continually
day after day may cause low
shoulder and a chang in the spine
Working at incorrect heighths,
slumping in the seat at the school
desk, or placing weight on the
spine may give it an unnatural
curve
These are just a few of the re-
suits which may take place if care
is not given to correct posture.
