Smith, Reed and Ritchie Censured . by Woman in Ignoring Politics Warning By United Press - SAN ANTONIO, Texas, June 1. POLITICS today entered the convention of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs. Mrs. Jesse W. Nicholson, Chevy Chase, Md., president qf the National League of Democratic Women for Law Enforcement, was the first to bring the presidential campaign issues before the convention. * Despite warnings of the federation president, Mrs. John

D. Sherman, that no candidate for President should be discussed, Mrs. Nicholson spoke openly against Alfred Smith, James Reed and A1 Ritchie in an address before the open convention Thursday night. “The time has come when the women of America must decide between lawlessness and civilization,” said Mrs. Nicholson. “No man who is out of sympathy with prohibition laws should be nominated or elected President or Vice President of the United States.. I represent 75,000 Democratic women over this country, but we are not A1 Smith, A1 Ritchie or Jim Reed Democrats. There are no party lines with the women when their homes and children are threatened.” Mrs. Nicholson said American women were “facing the greatest domestic crisis since the Civil War.”

Warns of Betrayal “Let us not be trapped or betrayed by the high sounding phrases of certain wet candidates Who are after our votes,” she urged, “One candidate says he does not approve of the Eighteenth Amendment but will enforce it as long as it is a law. That candidate, as Governor of the Empire State, believes in allowing saloons to run on Sunday, in wide open gambling and in repealing all laws that prohibit the sale of liquor. “Another candidate lambasts the Republicans for their commissions and omissions, and cries, ‘turn the rascals out.’ Yes, say we, but do not put another rascal in. “Another candidate talks about State’s rights. Or is it State’s •wrongs? At this very moment this .candidate has under his administration a State road scandal which has already reached over a million dollars.” Praises Three Senators Mrs. Nicholson commended Senators Simmons, North Carolina; Heflin, Alabama, and Owens, Oklahoma, who she said had “bodly stood out against a nullificationist. ’ The world’s progress which has spanned the breach between the rural and urban districts of the Nation, has brought to the country girl the same problems which are by her city sister, leaders of the Federation believe. Mrs. Henry Clay Taylor, Bloomfield, lowa, recording secretary' of the Federation, speaking in behalf of several de’egates, said present day rural prou". ns of morality are no different than those of the city. “The girls in the small towns and farm sections have roadsters, and they have good roads on which to drive them,” Mrs. Taylor said. “Temptations are about evenly divided, but personally I can place very little blame on youth for anything it does. The whole responsibility lies with parents. Children do not ask to be brought into the world and they are due certain protection and rearing after they get here.”

Believes In Rural Folk Mrs. Taylor, who boasts that she is a small town woman, is a firm believer in rural and hamlet folk., She organized the first county federation of women’s clubs in lowa. “So-called country folk are often better read and better informed than their city . neighbors because they have more time,” Mrs. Taylor said. “Machinery on the farm and in the farm home have given rural men and women time to read the latest book and magazine and the radio brings them the latest and best music. Furthermore, country folk are no longer pointed out because of their queer clothes—they are an attractive and fine group of people.” Mrs. Taylor is favored to win over Mrs. William R. Alvord, Detroit, Mich., in the race for recording secretary. Mrs. Taylor is a former State president and vice president of the federation. Summer Shelf Stock up one shelf for summer.

Bride Month Starts With Warning Against Nagging $ BY MARTHA LEE .“The courtship is ended, but the honeymoon lingers on,” is the refrain which starts today, June 1. Before the Fourth of July most of the June brides will be established in their own homes, ready for the business of being a wife. And there is all the difference in the world between being a bride and a wife. ’ | In one short month, hundreds of Indianapolis women will realize that they can’t exist forever in that blissful state of connubiality known as the honeymoon. The honeymoon is a vacation over which we will draw the curtain

of sentimentality and play ostrich. Besides, it is the period after the honeymoon in which we are interested. * Readjustment in Order It is then that the true nature of the husband comes to the surface. It is then that the wife finds her husband is subject to the thousand petty ills that beset mortal men. Hubby will ash his cigarets on the new rug; he will forget to wind the clock and put the cat out; he will forget anniversaries; he will attend lodge meeting once in a while. All of that is innocent; he won’t 'mean it. And all the time he will be working his head off to make a good home for his wife. During the period of readjustment from bachelorhood to being a model husband, the wife must handle herself and her spouse w’ith kid gloves. The husband will try his damdest to conform to the new mode of living, and he will eventually. The wife, of course, is more suited for domestic life and the transition period will not be so difficult. His little vicep and bad habits will have to be amputated slowly. It can’t be done all at once. Nagging Worst Fault It will require patience and tact |to do it. And above all, don’t nag. There is nothing in the world that will turn a man so quickly as nagging. He resents the hostile attitude of reproach. Nagging wrecks marriage. Remember, you can change a man ever so much, but you can’t completely revolutionize him and his mode of living. If he has smoked for years, you can’t break him of the habit. Taking a pipe away from a man is worse than taking a bone away from a bull dog. Two last things to remember: If you knew the man as you should before you married him, then you should be content with what you got. Don’t complain. And second, your husband married YOU and not your MOTHER. i You can just see the devilment shining out of this girl’s eyes. Dear Martha Lee:—l’ve always wanted to express mv opinion in your wonderful column, so here (toes. I’ve often wondered if I'm an old-fash-ioned girl. I detest smoking and drinking. Does kissing make you an up-to-date flapper? I don’t see any harm in a good night kiss, but I don’t make a habit of it. I can't see how a girl gets any fun out of smoking and drinking. It only ruins them later on, so why do it now? I I’m full of life and always cutting up, I but I want to settle down so a certain I fellow will like me more. ! I Just can’t seem to settle down. What should I do? He seems to like me a little, I and I want him. LONESOME. I’m glad you wrote to me, “Lonei some,” and I'd like to hear from you again. No, kissing doesn't make you a | flapper; it makes you common, i But you don’t seem to be an old- | fashioned girl at all. * I don’t see much harm in a good | night kiss, if you are exclusive with I it. But remember the “If.” i Perhaps you are too young to set- | tie down just yet. Qirls must have j their play time when they are j young. Don’t deprive yourself of it. If you are naturally inclined to be ! fun loving and gay, don’t marry a j man who is serious and likes to stay at home. You never would be nappy with’ a man like that. , If it is not your nature to settle

Be yourself; be natural, my dear. A “slave” to fashion is a "Modest Flapper.” Dear Martha Lae.—ln answer to “Knee Sick Husband" on the subject recently discussed in your column. I believe the problem is one which can not be controlled bv the Individual. I do not like knees, either, since there are so few that can be called pretty. Just the same I have to wear my dresses knee-length or be considered old-fash-ioned. That won't do these days. There is a pretty girl in our office who dresses in style, but because she has ugly lees she wears her dresses three Inches below her knees. ... , , .. All of the fellows and girls, including the married men, mention the length of her dresses when they speak of her. So what is a Kiri to do? Os course, you say “don’t follow the styles”, but this is a question we can't Ret together on. Guess we will have to stand the knees for a while. MODEST FLAPPER. Another column reader takes a “crack” at “Knee Sick Husband.” Dear Martha Lee:—"Knee Sick Husband” asks why girls wear their dresses so short. Why do men shave? The answer to both questions is the same. Just because they want to do it. He left the impression that girls wear their clothes to please the men. They don’t, however. I don't wear my dresses two or three Inches below mv knees, and I am not a rattle-bra‘ned flappel. I weai -.nee-length dresses, not to please the men, but because everyone else does. If he doesn’t like knees, he need not look at them. A YOUNG GIRL.

MARYE and ‘MOM’ mm m THEIR LETTERS

Dear Mom: Maybe you don’t believe it, but I do take your letters to heart. And sometimes, I go farther and follow your advice. y This I did yesterday. Said I to me, I’ll find out if I have a romantic husband or not. , So I started to provide the setting. I ran up quite a bill at the florist’s in so doing, but everything has its price. I bought the most heavenly apple blossoms, and arranged them around the living room. I placed a big bowlful of red tulips on my little black lacquer table. I wanted to have a romantic dinner, but 1 remembered that Alan has a very realistic appetite, so I saw to it that we had a nice thick steak, mushrooms, and some French pastry that would knock you eye out. Since it has been quite a long time since Alan and I have had a quiet evening at home, with the dressing gown and slipper idea predominating. I decided we would just start out with that general idea, and that J would be the nice, sweet little wife you are always asking me to be. Everything planned well, but did not execute according to the recipe. About 5 o’clock, just as I was getting out the bus, preparatory to going after my husband at his place of toil, the telephone rang. Yes, it was the husband. He couldn’t come home to dinner. He was working late—would just have a bite to eat at the restaurant in the building, and would probably worli until 11. I remonstrated, but Alan was so impatient that something in me grew reckless, and the vision of his stenographer came to my mind, and so I told him not to let my pleasure interfere with his work. I bangecl up the phone, and so did he. And the apple blossoms and the tulips seemed to wonder what it was ill about. Then the phone rang again. I thought it might be Alan, reconsidering. It was not. It was Norman. He began by being apologetic for having made trouble for me the last time I saw him. I told him I had nothing else but trouble, and it ended by his asking me out to dinner, since Alan was not on the job. I grabbed the idea. \ All we did was just to go out to dinner and to a movie. Then we went home. It was only about 10 o’clock, and Norman said he would have just one cigaret and leave. We fell to talking, about a little bit of everything—l never felt less sentimental—but we were both of us sitting rather cozily together on the davenport when Alan came in. Unfortunately we did not hear him come, nor notice his presence until he announced rather bitterly he hoped he wasn’t disturbing anybody, ind bolted upstairs. We have not spoken since. I guess you had better advise me how to get out of the situation. Lovingly, MARYE. , Barnhart-B idler The marriage of Miss Martha Butler, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel T. Butler, R. R.
