We, The Women
By RUTH


In a recent divorce trial a judge
ruled that a wife's making her
husband do homework does not
constitute cruelty. His decision
denied a divorce to a husband
who testified that his wife spent
most of her time visiting with
nelghbors and that he had to
clean the house, make beds, cook
dinner, and wash dishes after
work.
If the law is going to let wives
get by with that kind of Sinking
OF their responsibilities, then what
right have we to insist that a man
earn a living for his wife?
In the eyes of society a hus-
band charged with nonsupport is
looked on as a complete no-good.
Nobody blames his wife for di-
vorcing him.
Why should we be more lenient
with women? Isn't it as much the
Wife's job to be responsible for
the house as it is the mans Job
to support her?
A Wife's refusal to take care of
a home for her husband may not
constitute cruelty in the legal
sense OF the word. But there
ought to be some legal word for
it., because it is as shameful as
nonsupport.
Marriage is a partnership. And
both partners have their jobs to
do. if the marriage is to be sue
cessful.
The wife who falls down on her
side of the partnership is just as
much a failure as is the husband
who doesn't do his share.

Blaze ExciteS
South EnderS

A small fire which required on
ly the use of a hand pump in a
location under Alki Hotel, Fifth
and Washington, yesterday af-
ternoon Thursday proved that
people still are interested in fires.
When the alarm reached the
fire department. scores Of people,
in response to the screeching,
thrilling sirens of red trucks,
dropped their meals, beers and
chores to stream out into the
streets to see the city's fire fight
ers in action.
Traffic was halted, too.
But then the blaze lasted only
a few minutes, much to the dis
appointment of the excited peo-
pie.
The firemen quickly vanished

and quiet once more reigned on

CANADA BACKS
NO JOB BIAS.
POLL REVEALS

VANCOUVER. B. c., July IL
Most Canadians think there should
be a law ensuring that no man
should have difficulty earning a
living because of his race, color
or religion. the Gallup Poll report
ed last week.
To the question: "In some parts
Of United States, IL is against the
law to refuse a man job be-
cause of his race, color, or religion.
Some people approve of this be-
cause it ensures equality for all;
others disapprove, claiming it in
terferes with employers. Would
you approve or disapprove Of such
a regulation in this province?"-
GA % of the country approved hav-
ing a Fair Employment Practices
law; % % disapproved and
1870 were undecided.
The poll reported that in no
province, and in no social or eco
nomic group was there less than
majority support for such legis-
lation.
In probing deeper to find out
the reason behind the vote of
Canadians on this issue, the In
stitute found that those who
would approve of a Fair Employ
ment law being enforced. based
their belief, in the main, on the
concept of the equality of man
and the idea that ability, and
nothing else, should motivate EN-
ployers.
On the other hand those who
opposed the law argued that it
would Interfere with the rights
of the employers, or that Canada
should be kept for Canadians.
This latter argument was heard
more often in the Maritime
provinces than anywhere else.
The impracticality Of such lie,
gislation was another reason ad-
vanced frequently by those who
disapproved.

stitute of Public Opinion. found

estimated $300,OOO,0U0)

falling off; industrial loans are
being used to pay increased wages
