Women Are Ones
Who Struggle
With Shortages
By RUTH MILLETT

The National Authority for the
Ladies Handbag Industry is trying
to get the 20 per cent Federal ex-
else tax taken off women's hand
bags, on the grouncs that the levy
is discriminatory against women.
Almost everything has been dis
criminatory against women during
this war:
Packages the department stores
can't deliver mean that women
have to tote the bundles. Curtailed
delivery of grocery concerns means
that women have to walk to market
and walk home loaced down.
There was even hospital that
decided to cut down on the con-
fusion around the place by refusing
to let husbands stand by while
their wives had babies. And when
manufacture of such things as gas
stoves, electric ice boxes and vac
uum cleaners was stopped, women
were hit, not the men.
MOTHER SUFFERS MOST
1t isn't even the baby who suf-
fers because of diaper shortage,
the scarcity of baby clothes, the
near impossibility of getting his
name on diaper service. It's his
mother who has to wash every day
and trudge from store to store look
ing for his neecS.
And what luxury have men given
up during wartime that means as
much to them as the lack of sheer,
we'll fitting, flattering stockings
means to women?
For that matter, who cans the
produce from victory gardens and
who has taken on the family wash
ing and ironing because of made
quate laundry service?
It's the women, of course. And
most of the wartime shortages, sub
stitutions, and regulations have hit
them harder than the men.

Good shcwmanship stunt this
time of year is to wear an eye-flag-
ging bag, beanie and glove set in
bold design to give winter-weary
outfits a lift.
Best part of the trick is that you
can make such accessories yourself
by using a simplified pattern-one
with complete cutting and finishing
instructions-cnly little skill and
the following material: one yard of
wide wool coating or any
preferred fabric, Y yard each of
lining and buckram, four rings for
making bagstrap adjustable, and X
yard of wool jersey in a cclor which
harmonizeS with or matches the
color of the bag and hat, as do the
green gloves, shown on the model
(right), which picks up the pre-
dominant green tone in the black,
white and green-plaid wool.

With so many sparkling, colorful
doodads gravitating towards heads
glittering leaves, flower clusters,
ribbon-tied fancies-the need is
urgent to make Golf as bright and
shining as the competing ornament
According to the Hollywood girls
who started all of this business-a
glamorous ring-leader is Ann ("The
Doughgirls") Sheridan-hair should
lock as faultlessly groomed as a
window mannikin's, before
you reach for any doodad.
"Unkempt locks" says spokes-
man Ann, suffer badly in contrast
with an eye-catching ornament. On
the other hand, if hair is above re-
preach and the thingamabob isn't
because it has been kicking around
too long-the effect is just as bad"

Brown Wurs
Against Open
Shop Drive

New York (FP). = American labor
will not permit the drive towards un-
employment, the open shop and hun
ger which industry has launched under
new "back to normalcy" banner,
President Harvey w. Brown told 1000
delegates to the 21st convention of the
International Association of Machin-
lists (AFL) here Oct. 90.
The delegates represent 100000
lam members in the first major labor
convention since the end of the war
10000 of whom are members of the
armed services in good standing, and
465000 Of whom have been added to
the rolls since the last convention in
1910.
Brown, in his keynote speech, re-
counted labor's major role in defeat
ing fascism abroad( both in the front
lines and on theprp pE0duction line, anc
called for continuing fight to "stamr
out that philosophy" at home. He re-
called the "back to normally" cry fol
lowing the first world war, and its
elimination in the american plan
for an open shop. He recited figures
to show a 50 billion increase in value
of products between 1928 and 1925
while national payrolls went up only
5000 million, and a depression fol
lowed.

Senufe And House
Approve Tax Bill

Washington (FP).-The 1916 tax
reduction bill, a conference report
combining both Senate and House ver-

for signature Nov. /.
The bill, passed in the House Oct.
80 by vote of 297 to 33, went
through the Senate in record time
Nov. 1 without a roll-call vote.
Sponsors of the bill say it is intend
ed to increase production and employ
ment through operations of business.
Chairman of the House ways and
means committee Robert Doughton
Cd, N. c. said eff they do not do it,
the responsibility is on them."
Provisions of the bill, reducing 1916
taxes by $5,920 million, are:
He:,5 =
1. Cuts corporation taxes by $3,-
1876 million through completely elimi-
mating the $3.50 excess profits tax by
Jan. l, 1916, eliminating the capital
stock and declared value tax and re-
ducing normal and surtax rates.
2. Cuts individual taxes by 1854
million through dropping IL million

ting individual taxes by 1919 to 409e.

1t is said that George Washington
said, "Father, | cannot tell lie.
There is equally good evidence that
George also said, later on in life,
Gee, Betsy, amt it fierce, we amt
got no flag"
Whereupon Betsy told George to
keep his shirt on while she made him
a flag.
A flag means an identity and you
don't get kicked around as nondes-
cript.
The comparison is perhaps a bit
far fetched, but labor to day needs a
flag that everyone will understand.
Anyway, it needs something-flag, or
education, or something that will
identify its wage policy as a legiti-
mate thing, entitled to respect.
Labor's wage policy needs some
thing that will get it out of the que
rilla class, where so many people have
put it and where it doesn't belong at
all.
Labor is getting a first rate kick
ing around and lot Of it is coming
from those who should be supporting
labor.
This kicking around started during
the shooting phase of the war, when
every little strike was blown up by
mean propagandists and stupid super
jealous persons, some in uniform.
And it was made out that every
time labor found conditions so unbear-
able that it had to stop work, labor
was unpatriotic and was sabotaging
the fighting men.
Labor never has been able to get
the general public to understand that,
all through the war, while wages stood
still, locked to the so-called Little
Steel formula, prices of almost every
thing went up, until labor wound up
with a pretty severe reduction in ac-
tual pay.

INDUSTRIES DREAM WORLD

The bright, glittering postwar world
of abundance for all = celebrated in
countless ads and after-dinner
speeches = has been roughly showed
aside, while industry reaches for its
gun and shows labor what it really
has in store for the workers if
it can get away with it.
A job, better housing, enough money
to buy food and clothing and pay
the rent and maybe buy that new iron
or radio or washing machine you've
read about in the slick magazines? All
of that'se been crossed off industry's
postwar plan.
Instead, the workers are bluntly
told that the right to work is non
sense, that if they want a measly
wage increase they'll have to work
longer hours and give. up overtime
after 40 hours, that decent homes
will be available only for those who
can afford fabulous rents, that prices
are going to go up and if the employ
er can make a profit by limiting pro
duction, then he'll trim his plans, lay
T, off workers and the national well
fare be damned.
Industry is already working full
blast at its back to- poverty plan
which is aimed at smashing the pow
erful labor movement in this country
Facts on industry's sitdown strike
against collective bargaining and full
employment were told to the press
recently by a group of labor leaders.
Answering the question of whether
industry can afford wage increases,
they pointed to a government report
which showed that industry could pro-
vide an average pay increase of 24%o
and still have profits double what 1T
had before the war.
But industry can also afford to slow
down or halt production in war of
attrition against the unions because
its profits have been guaranteed by
the government.
Although corporate profits after
taxes more than doubled between 1889
and 1914 and another $26 billion has
been retained as undistributed profits,
Congress has guaranteed corporations
carry-back credits amounting to an
other $50 billion for tax refunds
should postwar profits fall below
1869 levels. This means that some
industries can shut down and spend
two years fighting unions and still
make profits.
Some industries are holding down
