In it there is food for
thought. We pass it to you

CONGRESS OF MOTHERS AND COMPLETE 4,565 MILE
DIED AT 1:52 P. M. FOLLOWING
HEMORRHAGE. WAS FATH-
ER OF MRS. LINDBERGH
MARRIED WOMEN AND THE
UNEMPLOYMENT SITUATION
From time to time The News
receives letters, some of them In-
dicated as not for publication,
protesting against the employment
of married women w hose earnings
are not essential for family sup-
port. Thi general argumeul is al-
ways the same that it Is unfair
for married women whose hus-
bands are able to support them
to deprive heads of families and
single persons of employment.
This feeling is not, we may be
sure, confined to Galveston. As
a national Incident of unemploy-
ment conditions it lms provoked
au official reaction In Washing-
ton in the form of a statement j
by Miss Mary Anderson, dlrectoi
of the women's bureau of the de-
pcartment of labor, to the United
States Dally. The statement re-
lated directly to a report that a
large Eastern railroad had is-
sued orders that it. would no
longer employ married women in
clerical positions or other capaci-
ties.
“If the report Is correct,'' Miss |
Anderson Is quoted, "and if tDe
motives be to cure unemploy-
ment, the course Is not Intelli-
gent, since the women’s bureau
has found after careful Investiga-
tion that the majority of married
women work because they are
compelled to contribute necessary
support to home and family.
She cited u Btudy made by the
bureau which showed that while
61 percent of the women workers
who are married live with their
husbands who also hold jobs,
nine out of ten such women re-
ported that they had to assist In
supporting the family.
The danger of drawing super-
ficial and inaccurate conclusions
from any such study us that
shouh. be obvious. An employed
married woman replies to the bu-
reau's Inquiry that her earnings
are necessary for the support of
the family, even though her hus-
band is working. Much depends,
however, on the definition of
“necessary support." In a great
many cases, we are convinced, It
is made to Include money for lux-
ury spending. That Is to say, the
wife’s earnings enable the family
to have luxuries they could not
afford on tho husband's earnings
pjiiub. They nit! iiecenuury in the
Bense that they are required to
uupjrui l ,11, II, lit CllU 11111,111,-1 111
which they prefer to live.
But there Is a social obligation
which supersedes Individual pref-
erence. Most of us would like
more money than we have, though
not every family is bo situated
that the wife can supplement tho
family income. When jobs are
scarce, a clearcut obligation rests
upon employers to assist In tin
equitable distribution of employ-
ment, giving due consideration, of
eburse, to disqualifications of em-
ployees. Employment Is not equit-
ably distributed when a married
woman whoso husband Is earning,
or is capable of earning, enough
for the comfortable support of
the family Is allowed to keep a
Job at tho expense of a married
man or a single person who Is
dependent upon his, or her, own
support.
We are not advocating the ln-
dtsorlmlnate firing of married
3ome of them unquestion-
ably are In the business world
from stern necessity—an Invalid
htljlbartd or one who Is unem-
ployed through no fault of his
own. But when Inquiry convinces
the employer that these or other
reason* of equal validity do not
obtain the Job should be given to
someone who actually needs It.

FLIGHT IN 41 HOURS
J
LAND WITHOUT INJURY WITH-
OUT LANDING GEAR THAT
DROPPED IN TAKE-OFF
WENATCHEE. Wash., Oct. 5.
(1)—Completing the first non-
stop flight by airplane across the
Pacific, Clyde Pangborn and Hugh
Herndon landed here after a 41-
hour flight from Samushiro Beach,
Japan. The plane circled the city
for several minutes before com-
ing down. The lauding gear was
dropped at the take-off, to In-
crease the plane’s speed. It lund-
ed on its belly, tipped over on Its
nose, then «et?!ed back and skid
ded through the dust. The pro-
peller was brokeu but it was
considered an excellent landing.
They had dumped all excess gas-
oline before the landing, to pre-
vent fire If the plane crashed.
Herndon received a slight cut
over the left eye. His first words
were: "Give me a cigarette." A
representative of the Japanese
newspaper Asahi was standing by
with a $25,000 check for the com-
pletion of the first Pacific flight.
The flyers wore wool socks but
no shoes. They said they had
adopted the Japanese custom of
removing their shoes when in-
doors. Pangborn said they flew
nearly to Spokane, but turned
back to Wenatchee, lie said it
was foggy over Seattle. The
flight failed to set a record, be
lug about 4,465 miles. Russell
Hoardmau and John Polando, fly-
ing from New York to Istanbul,
made the record of 5,(Ml miles.
Herndon said the motor stop-
ped over the Alaskan gulf, once
when the first tank went dry,
but that they started it ugain.
NOT ELIGIBLE FOR
$25,000 EASTER WOOD PRIZE
DALLAS, Oct. 3. (/P)— Col W.
E. Easterwood Jr. said Pangborn
and Herndon were ineligible for
his $25,000 prize one-stop flight
from Japan to Dallas, because
they failed previously to qualify
their plane and themselves as re-
quired by the conditions of the
offer.

years later Mr. Coolldge as pres - the A’s lor the first time during
dent helped make his prophecy | the first World Series game ou
come true by appointing Mr. Mor- i —~~ —. — -------
row as ambassador to Mexico.
But previously his estimate hud
been vindicated by Mr. Morrow's
successful career, first iu law,
then In banking as a member of
the friin of J. P. Morgan & Com-
pany. Mr. Morrow was also ad-
visor to the Allied Maritime
Transport Council In the world
war days of 1918.
Mr. Morrow had a very suc-
cessful regime as ambassador to
Mexico and won the confidence
ami friendship of the entire re-
public of Mexico. President Rubio
and Uenaro Estrada issued public
statements, highly lauding his
work far above the usual stilted
phrases of officialdom. After
leaving Mexico in September, 1930,
Mr. Morrow returned to his home
In New Jersey and rested a short
while before entering the sena-
torial race, on the republican
ticket, which he won with a
plurality of more than 400,000
votes over two opponents.
In that pronouncement he ad-
vocated repeal of the Eighteenth
Amendment. He also proposed
that control of the liquor busi-
ness should be entrusted to the !
individual states. The popular re- |
spouse to tills platform had Jm- j
mediate repercussions in ail pans
of the country, and was so over- I

Mr. Morrow’s election In No-
vember, 1930, entitled him to add
(lie description "statesman" to
the lint of "lawyer, banker, diplo-
mat” which had epitomized Ills
earlier vocations. It came by a
majority of nearly 200,000 in a
democratic year and again fo-
cussed attention on him. Talk of
him as probable presidential tim-
ber, which had started after his
primary success, was revived.
