WOMEN’S LOBBY ASKS INCREASED HYGIENE FUNDS Credited With Bill Now Before House Putting Board on New Basis. Br CONSTANCE HREUL WASHINGTON'. Mar 4.—The so-called Aomen’s lobby in Congress Is credited with the Introduction in the House of a bill putting the United States Interdepartmental Social Hygiene Board under the Department of Justice and asking for an appropriation of f1>25,000 for the next fiscal year. The bill was itrodaced by Representative Kahn of California, chairman of the House Military AfTalrs Committee. It will be introduced In the Senate within a day or two. Sometime things move fairly quickly in Washington. In this case, it was only a few weeks ago, as reported In these dispatches, that the Social Hygiene Board consisting of the Surgeon's General of the Army, Navy and Public Health Service, and of the Assistant Secretaries of the Treasury, Navy and War. met to discuss the future of the board's activities. Dr. Valeria H. Tarker is executive secretary in charge, the above board meeting only every three months to supervise her work. At the last meeting, representatives of the principal women’s organizations and the national Republican women appeared before the board to ask that its work in protecting the armed forces of the nation from prostitution and from social diseases be continued. There was grave danger that the Government would stop this work because no appropriation had been included in the budget, owing to the fact it hag been assumed anew public welfare department with special funds would have taken on this work by now. But this department was not in sight. The end of the fiscal year, June SO. was in eight Something had to be done and done quickly. After hearing the women's testimony nnd the recommendations by Dr. Parker, it was decided to ask the Department of Justice to take over the board's activities and to ask Congress for a special appropriation. Less than a week ago. it was announced that Attorney General Daugherty had approved this plan. The news was brought to the Baltimore convention of the League of Women Voters by Dr. Parker, a delegate from the District of Columbia league.

And now Representative Kahn has introduced the necessary legislation to se- j cnre this transfer and to obtain the j appropriation. Mr. Kahn is particularly interested in the bill because the board i was created three years ago under a provision of the Chamberlain-Kahn act. At the last meeting of the women's joint congressional committee a special committee was appointed to deal yith this matter in Congress, consisting of representatives of those women s organizations which had placed themselves on record in favor of the Interdepartmental Social Hygiene Board. It was this committee which seeureo the appropriation last year when it haa already been eliminated by the Appropriations Committee. Representative Kahn's bill ask*. for an increase of SIW, 000 over last year (5’225,000). The bill provides that tlte powers and duties of the agents of the Department of Justice be enlarged to include investigations of commercialized vice conditions in the vicinity of Army and Navy stations and posts in the United States or our insular possessions, or any place where our armed forces or ex-soldiers and sailors may be stationed under the care and authority of the Government, The news emanating from the White House today that the first, meeting of the congrt-ssoina’l organization committee would be called by the President some time this week reawakens Interest in the proposed scheme to create anew Department of Education and Welfare in which women have been particularly Interested. All other departments of the Government will come In for sweeping changes as well, but no authoritative information has so far been available as to what, they will be.—Copyright, 1322, by Public Ledger Company.
