Richard L. Strout
Talks to AAUW
On England
Correspondent Says
Britain Must Have
POsfwar Allies

The belief that England would &c
farther than any other country to
promote collective security among
nations after the war was expressed
by Richard Lee Strout in a talk at
the weekly tea of the American AS
sociation of University Women yes
terday afternoon. She will go even
to the point of giving up some of her
sovereignty" he predicted.
Mr.. Strout. who recently returned
to this country from England, is a
Washington correspondent of the
Christian Science Monitor.
England must have allies in the
postwar world" the speaker said,
pointing out that she is a nation of
100000 in world Of giant nations.
The treaty concluded with Russia
last summer by Anthony Eden was
cited as a step toward this end.
Every Englishman is intensely
interested in what the United
States is going to do after the war"
he added.
Discussing civilian life in Eng
land today, Mr.. Strout described
London as being far from the smok-
ing ruins which some people here
imagine it. Although one out of
every five buildings has been at
least slightly damaged by a bomb.
he said, rubble is cleared away and
order restored as soon as possible.
Discussions of the "absenteeism"
problem occupy great deal of space
IN British newspapers as we'll as our
own. Mr.. Strout said. The work
week in England is of SIS hours for
women and 65 hours for men. he
said, and these long hours. together
with the large number of women
workers and workers of advanced
years, naturally result in increased
absences.
Hostess at the tea, held at the
AAUW clubhouse, 1884 street NV,
was Mrs. Edward A. Chaplin. Mrs.
CLYDE Hadley, president of the
Washington branch, presided.

Dorothy Dix Says:
Husbands Should Realize Debt
They Olue W0mens Clubs

A young husband wants to know
of me if he should let his wife
belong to clubs. Let" his wife be-
long to clubs? Why, if I were a
husband 7 would make my wife
belorg to clubs. if she didn't do it
OF her own volition. For women s
clubs are the very backing of do
mestlcity, and probably do more
than any one thing to keep the
home fires burning.
This may seem strange and
almost subversive statement to men.
who have been in the habit of
thinking of women's clubs as gossip
factories and in terms of how many
women hours were lost from house
hold labor by their gathering to-
gether to study about the culture
OF the ancient Byzantine Empire,
or to delve into political economy
Or play bridge.
There was even time during the
80s and COS, when the movement
first started, when it was dismallv
prophesied that women's clubs would
be the breaking up of the home,
but instead of that they have proved
its prop and stay. And if husbands
would only realize what they owe
to the women's clubs, they would
build monument to them that
would make the Eiffel Tower look
like an ant hill
II you don't believe this, consider
some of the manifold blessings that
women's clubs have brought to both
sexes. First and foremost, they
have done more to check divorce
than all the preachers and moralists
and laws combined, for they have
kept married couples from wanting
DEGREES absolute. Everybody knows
that the curse of domesticity is bore
dom, and the thing that sends hus-
bands and wives out hunting for
afhnities and glamour boys and

Garden Section
Of Takoma Park
Club Meets
Subjects Discussed
Ranged From Flowers
To Choice Of Vegetables

With victory gardens and fooc
conservation programs acquiring in.
creasing Importance for housewife.
As national food rationing increases
their problems, members of the gar
den section of the Takoma Park
WomenS Club displayed unusual
interest in their first spring meeting
held yesterday at the home of Mrs
c. B. Smith, / Montgomery avenue
Takoma Park.
An exchange OF suggestions based
on personal experiences occupied
the tWo-hour meeting, with subjects
ranging from how to combine flower
and vegetable gardens to a choice of
vegetables to be planted within the
next few days.
Mrs. G G. Sward president of the
club. who has cultivated a table
garden" at her home in Chevy Chase
for many years, advised that now is
the time to plant peas, spinach,
radishes and lettuce. The soil in
her garden has been prepared for
several days, she explained, but like
many others she has been waiting
for drier weather before planting.
Mrs. Hugh M. Smythe said that
while vegetables were of paramount
Importance in gardens this year their
cultivation need not necessitate
sacrifice of flower growing entirely
She suggested that ANIMALS such as
nasturtiums or petunias be planted
between rows of vegetables or as
borders so that the garden might be
q place Of beauty.
Members agreed that tomatoes
should be grown by every one
wherever possible Mrs. Sward told
how she planned to place tomato
plants with shrubbery in locations
where there is plenty of sun.
Suggestions on the care of roses
and aZaleas were given by Mrs
c. B. Smith and Mrs. Mary G.
Hayes Mrs. Smith, who founded
the Takoma Park club 80 years
ago advised that rosebushes be
trimmed and pruned now. To pre-
vent future black spot or mildew,
she suggested the bush be busted
with sulphur. If no spray gun is
available. she advised that sulphur
be placed in piece of cheese cloth
and shaken over the bushes.
A practical suggestion was offered
by Mrs. Sward regarding canning
and preserving of foods later in
the season. Fearing that many
housewives experimenting with can
ming and preserving for the first
time might waste food through lack
of information on proper methods,
she suggested that those in the
community familiar with the use
of steam pressure cookers volunteer
their services in supervising the
work of others. She also suggested
that communities might attempt
establishing central kitchens where
housewives might bring their home
grown vegetable surplus for canning.
Mrs. Smith, section chairman,
presided at the meeting. Announce
ment was made that future discus
sions would include spring bulbs,
azalea gardens. lilies, rock gardens,
ANIMALS, perennials and transplant
ing. 1t was agreed that victory
gardens would be included IN dis
cussions at every meeting.
