HardLet a record by calling two special lions of the Sixtytseventh Conwsß in addition to the two reguUr sesnions. The first one enacted the Fordney-McCumber tariff law. and second Senator LaFollette and a map of insurgents blocked the ship subsidv proposal of the administration. Os the recent presidents, only Roosevelt and Coolidge called no special session. The administrations of each have been marked by notable conflicts with the legislative departaents. Special sessions are usually called to meet in March or in April following inauguration- McKinley, succeeding the Democratic Cleveland regime, call'd Congress to meet March 15. 1597. and that body enacted the famous Dingley protective tariff. Taft called a special session to pass the Payne-Al-drich tariff, which increased protection" stil further. A second Taft special session was calred to deal with proposed Canadian reciprocity, but it failed to accomplish its intended purpate. The United States entered the World War during a special session called by Woodrow Wilson to meet April 2. 191". It adjourned in October. In the next regular session Republican filibusters prevented passage of several essential appropriation bills, and Wilson Lad to call another session in 1919. This session saw the death nt Wilson's Versailles treaty ratification, and the adoption of the woman suffrage amendment of the constitution. Congress opeiates during special session under the same rules as during regular sessions. The President by • proclamation, emphasizes the subjects upon which legislation is desired but this in no way binds Congress rtich, once in session may do what it Pteues.

PROPER AGE TO MARRY PUT AT 22 FOR WOMEN Men Should Be 25, However, Says Expert On Social Hygiene Memphis, Tenn. Feb. 16 — (U.R) What is the proper age to rmariage? “A young man should not marry until he is 25 and A girl until she is 22 years of age,” is the opinion of Mrs Margaret Wells Wood, noted hygiene expert. Mrs. Woods has simken to young people in virtually every state in the Union and has investigated hunderds of cases in which early marriage figured prominently. Speaking before a group of college and high school students here, Mrs. Wood advocated the teaching ?f sex in al public schools above the grades. “The trouble, in a large part at least with our present marriage system is that young boys and girls are physically ready for parenthood from six to eight years before they are mentally and emotionally mature enough," Mrs. i Wood said. “Even the women who do not want children should not marry. If they are physically unable to have chindren. they should adopt ,ont one. but several for the presence of children in the home makes it a much happier place to live,” Mrs. Wood said. o Mrs. Martin Gilson, who has been quite ill with an attack of influenza, is greatly improved, and able to be about.

LAWS AFFECTING WOMEN'S WAGES APPEAR DOOMED Legal Bans On Inadequate Pay Nullified In Many States Os Union Uy Joseph H. Baird (United Press Staff Correspondent) Washington, Feb 16 —(VP) —A dark future for humanitarian laws setting minimum wages for women In industry is foreseen by the Women's Bureau of the Labor Department which lias completed a study of such legislation during the last 15 years. Though 17 states placed a legal ban on inadequate wages for women, these laws have not only been "nullified in several states by the attacks upon them," but are subject elsewhere to “Constant pressure" which has weakened their affect, the Bureau's report stated. "It is apparent that today many states have finished their experiment in setting minimum rates f r adult women,” it said American experiments in regulating wages for women were patterned, with modifications, after the laws of Australia and New- Zealand, it was pointed out. But in those countries minimum wage laws were applicableto men as well as women in certain industries. In America, the laws have affected only women and minor children. Conditions Improved Interest in minimum wage laws increased about 1909 following a government survey of “the condition of woman and child wage earners in the United States, which disclosed shockingly low wages for these workers.” Massachussets passed in 1912 the first law fixing a minimum for wages of women. It was followed by similar laws in California, Colorado, Minnesota, Nebraska, Iregon, Utah. Washington, Wisconsin, Arizona, Arkansas, Kansas, North Dakota, Porto Rico, South Dakota, Texas and the District of Columbia, the Women's Bureau sain Nene of these laws sought to establish more than “a living wage," the report said- Some of these state set a definite amount as a minimum, which could be changed only by amending the law. Others set up commissions to shift wages to correspond with economic changes. Despite the disfavor wijh which these laws are now regarded in their states, the Bureau said, it still believes the commissions have made a remarkable record. “If they have been unable so set rates that would give every woman a proper standard of living, they certainly have improved conditions,” the report stated.
