Dorothy Dix

DEAR MISS DIX: I have been
married for three years and have
Q sweet baby girl. Even before the
baby came my wife and I quar-
relied over her slovenly house.
keeping and untidiness. Still, then
she would make an effort to clean
up for a while. but now she just
lets everything 60 and uses the
baby for an alibi. I am able to
afford one servant for her. What
can I do? SALESMAN.
Answer: If a woman is just nat
urally trihing and lazy and slov-
enly, she is incurable. She will
always love her ease better than
anything else on earth and no
consideration Of her family's COM
fort will galvanize her into action.
The only thing that a man cursed
with that kind of wife can do is
10 make enough money to hire a
good maid who will make him a
comfortable home in which to live.
There are some faults in a wife
that . husband can correct If he
goes about 1t with tact and firm

anniversary of the calling Of the
first women's rights convention at
Seneca Falls, N. Y, by Lucretia
Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton.
AS a special tribute to DR.. Wells
who came from her summer home
in the Adirondacks for the oc-
casion, Mrs. Broy welcomed her
with a bouquet of summer flowers.
The women's organization used
flowers in another way yesterday
to inaugurate a new custom, a
Laying of the Roses" ceremony,
which will be followed DIT subse-
quent Seneca Falls Day celebra-
tions. The ceremony was led by
DR.. Wells, who placed bouquets Of
American Beauty roses at the base
of the statutes of Miss Mott and
Mrs. Stanton in the front hall Of
the party headquarters. She was
followed in turn by national and
State officers and members who
each placed a rose on the
bouquets.
Among the distinguished men,
bers participating in the ceremony
was Judge Marion j. Harron, re-
Gently reappointed to the Tax
Court of the United States. Judge
Harron paid tribute to the vision
and faith" of Lucretia Mott and
Elizabeth Cady Stanton. They
had no encouragement and every
obstacle" she said. The women
of today still carry on their work
but they owe many Of the privi-
|leges and opportunities which they
now have to these women"
Mrs. Amelia Walker was chair
man of the committee Of arrange
ments for the garden party. as
sisted by Mrs. Broy. Mrs. Lucia
Hanna Hadley. Mrs. Ogle and Miss
Martha Souder, secretary Of the
party.

ness, but he wastes his time try
ing to reform a lazy one. There
is nothing in her to which he can
appeal. She has no sense Of duty,
or else she would realize that she
isn't playing fair in not being q
good housekeeper. She has no
sense of pride, or else she would
be ashamed to go sloppy and un-
tidily dressed and to keep house
that looks like pigsty. Hence the
man with such a wife must either
get rid of her or make up his mind
to endure her as she is. He can
never change her.
AS for your wife making an alibi
of the baby. that's common fem
mine practice.
They make a smoke screen
of the poor little mite in the
cradle, behind which they hide
their Incidence and general lack
Of pep and ambition. Also this
supermother devotion saves their
faces because it sounds grand and
noble for them to be devoting
themselves to their children.

National Wonen's Portv
Asks Equal Rights Action
GARDEN PARTY INTERLUDl
By Ruth Dean

The National Women's Party
high lighted a Seneca Falls Day
celebration yesterday with adop-
ton Of a resolution calling upon
President Truman to TASK imme-
diate action in the Senate or the
equal rights amendment"
At the same time the special
meeting of officials of the Wom-
ems Rights Group, which met in
the garden of Alva Belmont
House. adopted a second resolu-
ton demanding that Senator
Lucas uphold the Democratic
Party pledge and bring the
amendment to a vote"
The resolutions were intro
duced, respectively. by Mrs. Mamie
Mizen, national secretary of the
organization, and Mrs. Dora Ogle.
The action was taken after
members were informed by their
political chairman, Mrs. Cecil
Norton Broy, of the Senate Policy
Committees decision to post
pone its meetings indefinitely"
Mrs. Broy expressed concern at
this turn of events. "It had
seemed assured that the equal
rights amendment would reach
the floor of the Senate by July
o." she said. She added that, in
view of the latest action of the
Policy Committee. "the next few
days will be critical and some
decision will have to be made"
DR.. Agnes E. Wells, national
chairman, pointed out that the
party has more than enough sup
port and cited Mrs. Broy's latest
report that the group now has
- supporters in the Senate and
296 In the House.
The garden conference" was
the highlight Of the party's an
nual Seneca Falls Day celebration
which commemorated the 101st

Florida NAACP
Branches Push Tag
Sale

Approximately 40 Florida branches
of the NAACP are now helping to
push the first statewide tag sale
over sponsored by the organization
in Florida.
On each tag is the label: Buy A
Tag To day to Promote Human
Rights" This inscription is very APP
propriate, in view of the fact that
the NAACP is the chief exponent of
human rights for all mankind, with
out regard to race, color, or creed.
For 40 years the NAACP has waged
a militant fight for the full civil
rights of Negro citizens. During
this time it has carried to the United
States Supreme Court % cases in
volving the basic constitutional
rights of Negroes, and it has won
twenty-three Of these cases. No other
organization in America can boast
of such q record.
Every Negro in America to-day is
enjoying a fuller life as a result of
the great being done by the NAACP.
And in no state have Negroes en-.
joyed more tangible benefits from
the NAACP than in the state OF
Florida 1t was the work of the
NAACP that made it possible for
Florida Negroes to vote in the
Democratic primaries last May and
thus help to elect the new Governor
of their state. Possibly a direct re-
suit of their part in these elections
was shown last month when Gov
ernor Fuller boldly declared war;
against the Ku Klux Khan and serv-
ed notice that these covered cow
ards and hooded jerks will not be
allowed to terrorize minority groups
in this state"
Tags are selling for CSC each, and
the money will be divided between
local branches and the State Con
ference Mrs. Viola T. Hill Of Or
lando, chairman of the Tag Sale,
expresses the hope that proceeds
from this effort will help to provide
the funds that are so urgently
needed to carry on the work Of the
NAACP in Florida. Mrs. Hill is urg'
ing Florida Negro citizens to give
their full cooperation to this ef'
fort.

We Are Rising

We are rising, true enough,
But as we rise, let's keep a level
head.
Be not bumptious, be not rough,
But be gentle, kind, and prove we
are we'll bred
We are rising now each day
We're putting footprints on the
modern sand.
At last we've learned the way;

the President will have under the
treaty.
Senator George. Democrat, OF
Georgia. said yesterday that the
committee report has been rewrit-
ten to make clear that the Pres
ident Is given no new powers tc
proceed with the use Of American
armed forces without the consent
of Congress.
The Constitution gives Congress
the sole right to declare war. Sen
ator George said some Senators
believe the President-as COM
mander- in-chief Of the armed
forces-now has the power to dis
patch combat troops into battle.
Clear Understanding Urged.
Senator George had argued that
it is tremendously important ito
hvae q clear understanding writ
ten into the report declaring the
President will not take any such
action without approval by Con-
gress."
Senator Connally is eager TO get
the approval Of all l3 members of
his committee. The bipartisan
group has been unanimous in its
decisions for the past several
years.
Any split in the committee on
such an important question as the

May Drop Closed Shop Section.
One being given some thought
would strike from the administra-
tion bill a section which would
nullify State laws banning the
closed shop. Seventeen States
have such statutes. Under the
closed shop an employer can hire
only union members.
Some Senators whose States
outlaw the closed shop have made

bill which contains q notification
provision.
That whole issue puts the Tru-
man Democrats on q hot spot.
The big labor organizations want
the Taft-Hartley law repealed, as
MIR. Truman promised. But they
reluctantly have agreed to few
amendments to the administration
bill.
They are not willing. however.

keep either the Taft-Hartley laws

ton against 1t.
