A Woman: Viewpoint RY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

ELIENA KRYLENKO—in plain American Mrs. Max Eastman — who, before her marriage to the distinguished writer ar.d critic, was secretary to Maxim LitvinofT, told us the following story of a certain Solomon of the Soviet. While she talked he- blonde. Slavic face was iliuminat with mirth. A straight-laced Communist gentleman objected to providing mair/enance for a child said by its mother—his former wife—to belong to him. He told the court he could produce five otner men who had been too friendly with the lady. True enough, on the appointed day the five appeared and each confessed to a former liaison with the mother. But imagine their consternation when the official announced this verdict: Since the paternity of none could ne d!3v ere ordered to eontribute to the child's support. The incident happened more* than seven years ago and whether the Soviet Union is still so particular is not known. But the judgment was as sage as that of Israel's wisest king and has the merit of rescuing a helple.i child from the vacillation and unconcern of unworthy parents. Over here, as you know', alimony is nearly always placed in the hands of the woman. We trust the mother to be square with her child, to make its education and welfare her prime concern. Unfortunately, however, a very large number of divorced women are occupied chiefly in hunting for a good time. They are not the traditionally unseifish mothers whose prototypes we have been taught to admire. If you find it hard to credit the

statement, visit some child welfare home in your community and find out for yourself how many American women abandon or give away their babies. We have long since faced the truth about men. Not all of them are fit to be fathr-s. To face the truth about women is the next step in social progress. Not every woman is fit to be a mother. SEWER CONSTRUCTION PETITION TURNED DOWN Bonds to Cover Cost Can Not Be Sold, Is Decision. The Works Boards denied yesterday petition for the construction of a sewer in Beechwood-av, from Rawles-av to Webster-av, and in WeLster-av from Beechwood-av to Little's Line. An investigation fol>wing the receipt of the petition in August. 1933, revealed that the improvement could not be made since bonds to cover its cost could not be sold. The board also decided to rescind all further action on a petition for the permanent improven °nt of Beechwood-av and the construction of sidewalks on the south side of the street. It was explained that the appraised value of the property was too low to justify the improvement. Distinguished Catholic Is Dead Bu Cuffed Prmn NEW YORK, Jan. B.—Joseph F. Keany, 67, general solicitoi for the Long Island Railroad for the last 18 years, died yesterday. He was a prominent Catholic la man.

TARZAN AND THE LION MAN

~

At the crack of rifle fire. Major White ran to the head of the column where he found the askaris and white men crouching, gazing into the dark forest, their rifles fixed to fire again. Naomi Madison crouched upon the floor of her car. Two black soldiers lay on the ground, their bodies pierced by arrows . . .

.. . Hunting beasts paused in the distance when they heard the rifle fire that had disturbed the motion picture safari. Most of them slunk away; but two remained, lying in the shade of a tree. One was a great black-maned lion; the other was a man. He lay upon his back, the lion beside him. “Tarmangani!” murmured the man.

—By Ahem

A low growl rumbled in the cavernous chest of the carnivore. “I shall look into this matter,” said the man. "Perhaps tonight, perhaps tomorrow-.” He closed his eyes and fell asleep again—the sleep from which the shots had aroused him. The lion blinked his yellow-green eyes and yawned; then he, too, slept . . .
