Women Lose in Measure of Equality Situation Described as Becoming Worse in Workers’ Field. by gretta palmer Time* Special Writer NEW YORK. Jan 4—There Is a Nineteenth amendment, too. A this country goes the way of much of the rest of the world it, C;':, may be repealed Then, mesdames, you will right back where your grandmother was. In Germany today a woman can not acquire property upon the- death of her husband. A woman's wages for skilled labor are lower than those of a common laborer who happens to be a man. A woman who is a recognized feminist is deported or thrown into jail. In Italy much the same situation prevails. Women there are encouraged to bear children and to keep out of the business and professional worlds. What about America? Well, the American woman can still sign checks in her own name. She can still work without being branded as unpatriotic—if she can find work. But the fight for equal rights is a losing one; we have to suffer from a far greater discrimination on grounds of sex than we did five years ago. And Che situation —about which nobody says very much —is steadily getting worse. Sixty-Two Codes Held I nfair Our government has approved sixty-two codes which promise women lower wages than men tor the same work. Our government has passed a ruling which discriminates against married women in the civil service if their husbanas are similarly employed. And the private cor porat ions which have blandly dismissed their married women employes are legion. Women never have been taken quite seriously in the world of business, and it is becoming incicasingly apparent now. A mans right to a job’is not contended—the fact that he is thrown into the breadline when he is eager to work, is deplored by every one. But a woman's right to work is something else again. She is told that perhaps for a while, until conditions pick up, it might be better if she would forget this new-fangled nonsense and go back to somebody’s kitchen. Well, whose kitchen? The women of the present younger generation have not been brought up "to a life of either idleness or domesticity. They have developed certain skills in the expectation that the world would have a use for them. If times are bad and the scarcity of jobs throws them out of work, they are willing to accept their hard luck with the men who are also unemployed. They will be philosophic about it—so long as men and women share alike. Just “Marginal Workers" They are not sharing alike today. The women are being given very definitely to understand that they are the “marginal workers” —the employes who are gratefully accepted during times of plenty but dropped from the pay roll when bad Times are at hand. They are beginning to realize the insincerity of the welcome extended to them by the business world during the war, when there were not enough men to go around. They have found that they were accepted on sufferance only and that the equality they seemed to enjoy was only an emergency measure, to be recalled at any time. The cause of feminism is not being advanced in America today—it is suffering a sad reverse, showing a faint reflection of the terrible setback that women are enduring in some of the other countries of the world. Will the old time suffrage leaders please step forth? It looks as if we were going to need them once again. MRS. COLEMAN IS PARTY HOSTESS Mrs. William H.

Contract Bridge

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridge I.cague r T''HE first important factor in contract oridge is to know how to bid your hand correctly. Even though you are a good player, if you do not arrive at the proper contract, your good play avails you nothing. I want to advise my readers to pay more attention to defensive play. Just because your opponents arrive at a game contract is no reason why you should give up. Always be on the alert to execute some play that may defeat the contract. This is what was done by S. Garton Churchill of Brooklyn, N. Y.. in the first round of the recent national contract team-of-four championship at Cincinnati. He and his teammates won twenty out of twenty-eight matches in this session. They were the defending champions, and defense is their strongest point.

When North showed the diamond suit by his no trump bid, Mr. Churchill, seated in the East, refused to open the diamonds, which easily would allow the opponents to make their contract. Instead he led the jack of hearts, which was won in dummy with the ace. A small club was returned. West refused to win, and North, the declarer, went in with the jack. Churchill's first defensive play was to drop the nine of clubs. noo A SMALL spade was returned and dummy's jack was finessed, holding the t r ick.

clarer then played the ace of clubs frem dummy and Mr. Churchill dropped the five of clubs, completing an echo which he hoped might lead the declarer to beiiev£ that he held the king. A small diamond was led from dummy, on which the declarer put the nine. Mr. Churchill won the trick with the jack and played the six of hearts. His partner played a sfhall heart, allowing the declarer to win the trick with the ten. The declarer then saw opportunity to lock Mr. Churchill in. so he led the king of hearts, discarding a small club from dummy. He now played a small spade and won in dummy with the ace. A small spade was returned and East was forced to win the trick with the king. Declarer now felt quite confident that he had Mr. Churchill locked in so that he would have to lead a diamond toward the queen. How’cver, Mr. Churchill cleverly had concealed his ten of clubs, which he now had for an exit card. He played the ten of clubs, the queen was played from dummy, West won the trick with the queen, cashed his two good hearts and led a diamond, which Mr. Churchill won wdth the ace. Thus the three no trump contract was defeated two tricks. (Copyright, 1934. by NEA Service, Inc.) RED VELVET USED FOR EVENING WEAR By United Pres a PARIS, Jan. 4.—This year there is anew deep red uncrushable velvet that makes stunning evening gowns. The Countess H. Percy has one from Molyneux and long uncrushable golves to match. Red velvet shoes have a way of helping young toes to “get hot” when the band strikes up a lovely foxtrot and champagne glasses clink. Bright red crystal chips, deep red garnetts and rubies are popular in the jewelry line, costume or real, and large feather fans of ostrich flame color often are seen swished about a winter ballroom where huge log fires roar in competition to jazz howlings. ‘ Dates' to Be Guests Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity members of Butler university will entertain their “dates” at dinner Sunday, Jan. 14, as part of a social evening program.

Ohio State Group Will Give Party ' University Colors to Be Used for Event at Athletic Club. Scarlet and gray, the colors of j Ohio State university, will decorate | the fifth floor dining room of the j Indianapolis Athletic Club Satur- ! day night for the annual Ohio j I State alumni dinner-dance.

Possibility of anew Broad Ripple high school building being constructed this year through a public works administration loan, is considered remote by school officials, it was learned today. Members of the Broad Ripple Parent-Teacher Association have advocated that the present antiquated structure be replaced as part of the PWA program. It was pointed out by A. B. Good, school’s business manager, that the school city can not borrow funds from the PWA because the school’s bonded debt now is in excess of the legal limit, as result of a heavy drop in assessed valuation, on which the borrowing limit is based,. To borrow more money at this time would be in violation of the statute limiting the maximum legal indebtedness of a governmental unit, he said. This is the same difficulty which proved a stumbling block to efforts of south side civic organizations to complete elevation of the Belt railroad tracks on the south and west sides, it was pointed out. The new Broad Ripple high school proposal was broached to the federal works board several days ago by Walter Kelley, representing the Broad Ripple P.-T. A., who was referred to school board offices.
