Can a Married Woman
Ever Feel Certain?

Many married women take unnecessary
risks with their nerves, health, happiness.
Why? Generally because feminine hy-
giene is considered too personal to be dis
cussed. And so many women use douches
of over-strong solutions of acids which
can actually burn or scar delicate tissues.
Today such risks are needless. For science

The easy conquest of Europe was

Counsel for Mothers
Says Senator Glass
Instigated Arrests
Trial Continues Today
After Claim of Wrong
Statute FoiIs

The trial of two Midwestern
mothers charged with disorderly
conduct in front of the office OF
Senator Glass, Democrat, of Vir-
ginia last Friday, went into its fifth
day in Police Court today after de-
fense counsel yesterday raped at
the Senator for creating subter-
fuge" to prevent opponents of the
British aid bill from 'bothering"
him.
Charges that Mrs. Elizabeth K.
Dilling of Chicago and Mrs. Clara
Nibberich of st. Louis were arrested
"at the instigation of Senator Glass"
were made by Attorney T. Edward
O'Connell near the close of the days
trial before Police Court Judge
Hobart Newman.
The attorney then moved that the
case, which began last Saturday, be
dismissed on the grounds the
charges against the two women were
brought under the wrong statute,
which, he claims, does not have ref
erence to conduct in buildings of the
Capitol. After hearing Mr.. O'Con-
nell's arguments, Judge Newman
ordered the trial continued until 2
pm. today.
Mrs. Dilling Testifies.
Mrs. Dilling, making her first ap-
pearance on the witness stand, testi-
fled she appeared with group of
women at the entrance to Senator
Glass Office to present him with an
American flag and to ask him to
vote against the British aid bill.
She claimed that two men barred
the entrance to his Office, and that
the delegation was told only one
woman would be permitted to enter
the Senator's Office.
While awaiting word from the
Senator's secretary, the group, which
she said numbered around Is wom-
en-, sat on the corridor floors, Mrs.
Dilling told the court. 1T seemed
as though we sat there all day,
waiting for one Of us to be ad-
mitted," she said
When questioned by her attorney
as to whether she or any of the
others were noisy or boisterous, Mrs.
Dilling replied: Listen to any bridge
party and you will hear the same
noise"

Littlehales, Mrs. Dilling said it was
not her idea originally to go to
the Offices of the Senator, but added
that lit was a matter of gossip at
our hotel, however, that Senator
Glass had four British flags in his
Offices" It was then decided, she
said, to present the Senator with
an American flag.
Claims Women Unorganized.
She claimed the women were not
organized but came here as indi-
viduals because "as mothers we have
a great stake in the coming war
which passage of this bill will
bring" She admitted to Mr. Little
hales, however, that she had urged
mothers by letters, radio and the
press to give their support in de-
feat of the bill.
Judge Newman asked If the
women had sat down in front of the
Office of Senator Walsh, Democrat,
of Massachusetts, the same day. Mrs.
Dilling said they had not, adding:
"We would not have sat in front
of Senator Glass Office II we had
been admitted"

are to testify in discreet matters
it were we'll that they testified
in camera, except for an additional
unfortunate fact of experience
that there is no such thing as
testimony IN camera in the present
state of this republic.
Ide-Het knew what more
General johnson or MIR Roy How
ard or Colonel Lindbergh can
contribute to the enlightenment
of the senator's than they have
already publicly contributed.
It is as foolish and as time
wasting TO call them as 1t would
be, for instance, to call Mr.. Her
bert Agar or Miss Dorothy
Thompson.
There are others called whose
testimony can only be means OF
airing a partisan and lnexpert
viewpoint: for instance, Mr.. Verne
Marshall or Mr.. Thomas Dewey.
On THE other hand, there are
~ many persons who have been
reticent about opinions, but who
do possess exceptional and dis
interested knowledge which might
be of great value to the COM
mittee.
l think, for instance, of two
journalists who are not, nor have
been, engaged in forming opinions,
but who are as certainly possessed
of as exceptional knowledge and
information as any diplomat.
l think of Mr.. Otto ToliSchius,
for 20-odd years correspondent of
The New York Times in Berlin,
and of Mr.. William Schirer, until
recently the Columbia Broadcast
ing Companys reporter in the
same capital. who also possesses
knowledge gained from 20 years
residence and study in Central
Europe. =.
1t would also seem TO me-if
what the committee is seeking is
expert opinion. and not ammuni-
ton for partisan policies deter
mined upon in advance-that the
committee could well afford to
hear Mr.. Hamilton Fish Arm
strong who, as editor of Foreign
Affairs" the magazine exclusively
devoted to the subject of its title,
possesses more overall informa-
ton than. many a diplomat, and
whose inpcccability of character
and moderation in judgment are
known to all his associates.
