Alger did. He recently filed
petitions for the post of mayor.
At this weeks council meet
ing, Mayor Rettmiller made a
brave little speech, thanking his
colleagues for their years OF CO.
operation, but announcing firm
ly that he is not and will not
be- a candidate for reelection.
PUT ON THE HEAT
Maybe the word firmly" is
out of place, because no sooner
had Rettmiller publicly reveal
ed his intentions than his house
and place Of business were both
filled with callers, trying to ar
gue|him into fourth one-year
term.
SO Mayor Matt, as he attend
cd a Board of Supervisors fin
ance committee meeting Thurs
day was a worried man. On
one hand, he said, he felt like a
heel for encouraging Weier to
run for the mayors job, and on
the other hand he feels like he's
failing lot of people by not
taking another term.
When originally proposed
this matter to Alger l had no
idea that people would resent
my quitting the job" he said.
HE'LL ACCEPT
Wednesday petition filled in
with Rettmiller' name, and pur-
porting TO contain the signatures
of some 40 business people, was
filed with Clerk Weier. Weier
took it TO City Attorney Henry
Gage who pointed out that it
was not acceptable unless it bore
the John Hancock of Mr.. Rett-
miller-which it didn't.
Asked Thursday about his
plans, Mayor Rettmiller wiped
his glistening brow and stroked
down his greying hair:
Tell the people of Utica that
if they want to vote me back in
to office, I'll qualify to take it,"
was his comment.
He declined to say whether he
will so to Clerk Weiers office
and sign the petition, or whether
he was satisfied to let it stand
despite Cages opinion.
But if they want him for may

to vote him into office despite
himself. He even limited that
he might 60 out and campaign

RUSSELL MAYNARD IN TOWN ON PUBLIC HEALTH WORK

Russell Maynard, director of the Territorial Department of Public Welfare arrived last Friday eve ming from Juneau, and is at the Wallace Hotel. He is organizing the expansion of the departments activities as established by the last legislature.
 His department has $700,O00 for the coming two years to be spent for old age assistance. This will be matched by s6O0,OO0 in federal funds. The fund for dependent children is $1OO,OOO to which the federal government has added 5000.
 The legislature also appropri- ated $75,000 for the Juvenile Code, which operated through this department and the U. S. Com missioner.
 For general relief not specifi- cally stated, the department has $3OO,00O. The greater portion of his will no doubt be spent for health purposes. The Territory has 5 beds for tubercular patients at Skagway, 5 beds at Ketchikan and others scattered throughout the Territory.
 MT. Maynard is making plans to establish an office here for the department, if space can be found.

BY DORIS FLEESON.

An anguished protest against the
low political estate to which women
have fallen in the Truman admin
istration has been put before Demo-
cratic National Chairman Robert E.
Hannegan by the women of the
party with a demand that he take
the matter UP with. the President.
Accustomed throughout the Roose-
velt years to sit above the salt, the
Democratic women now find them
selves snatching at crumbs from the
table. This, they darkly mutter
takes away their appetite for the
party chores and may not nourish
the party in the coming elections
either.
1t is fact that although Presi-
dent Truman has for the first time
put the White House behind the
Constitutional amendment for equal
rights for women, the influence OF
women on the main stream of events
in washington today is virtually nil
Glowing Exception.
There is a glowing exception and
that is the House of Representa-
tives. All nine women serving there
have exceptional ability plus the
looks and charm which will never
be a drawback to their sex in any
walk Of life. BY and large, they are
superior women above the average
Of the House and-this Is important
they work at the job.
The slump in feminism actually
began here with the war when the
social programs had to take back
seat. Even SO, there we're the
women's services aad Mr.. Roosevelt
Also continued to lean heavily on
women he knew to be experts, such
as Mrs. Anna Rosenberg OF New
York who is skilled in personnel
and manpower problems.
Mrs. Roosevelt, of course, furn-
ished a clear channel into the
Presidents study for women of all
interests. Herself a grass roots
politician, she helped the party
women, and she kept open house
for women of affairs, women with
causes. Her mere presence on the
scene had its effect far beyond the

| consideration for the distaf side, BY
a coincidence happy for New York
Democrats, women got the vote
about the time AL Smith put his
great powers behind the social and
labor reforms which brought him a
nomination for the presidency and
| four terms as Governor. Women
among them Frances Perkins-furn-
ished the spark plugs for much of
this legislation. Mr.. Smith gave
them due credit and power and they
in turn spread the Democratic gos-
pei. In the extraordinary Mrs. Belle
Moskowitz, Smith, too, found a
political mentor for genius and that
helped.
The party in New York swept on
to 20 years of glory and the women
politicians rode with it. They
reached their apogee when Mr.
Roosevelt on reaching the White
House made Miss Perkins Secretary
OF Labor, first woman to serve in
the cabinet.
President Truman's political back
ground Is very different. The
Pendergast machine in Kansas City
which sent him to the Senate
doesn't specialize in women OF
political affairs. His appointees re-
fleet his viewpoint.

kins was not a success and they
frankly had no outstanding candi-
date to offer.
There is no disposition at all tc
find fault with Mrs. Truman. She
Is conceded the right to be herself
and run her show as first lady the
way she wants it. There is grum-
bling over what is termed a lack OF
force in Mrs. Charles Tillett, ma
tional committee vice chairman In
charge of women's activities.
In the interests of candor it must

be recorded that not all is gloom
among the women. The woman's
party believes that the backing OF
Mr.. Truman, their first presidential
supporter, is what 1t takes to put
over the equal rights amendment
Miss Perkins, Mrs. Roosevelt and
their friends were against the
amendment, it's recalled. But now
the amendment has come to the
House for vote for the first time,
while the majority OF the Senate

sidering 1t, are committed in It's

Chairman Hannegan was not

about 20 miles east of Holtville
Tuesday night, Mrs. Dorothy Payne,

Wallace Eugene Robinson, phar-
macists mate second class, San
Diego, told highway patrolmen that
the woman started to walk in front
o. his car. He said he applied the
brakes anC. swerved aside to miss
her when the car door handle
caught in her dress and threw her
to the pavement. A physician said
her injuries consisted of a 22-inch
laceration on her abdomen and a
short one above her right eye.
The sailor said he ano his wife
had started from Blythe to San
Diego and became confused in their
directions and headed back east on
highway so before the accident.
Highway patrolmen ascertained
that Mrs. Payne and her husband,
Hendrix F. Payne. had been car
ried past the Bard road turn while
hitchhiking ride from Yuma home.
They started, walking along high
way 80 when Payne became sleepy
and decided to lie down in the sand
for a nap. Mrs. Payne, he said, left
him there and wandered out on
the highway into the Path of the
on-coming car.
