Kathleen Norris Says:Slavery Is Not Over
Bell Syndicate.—WNU Features.
" Always to be a slave, always behind hand, always pitied by the kindly superior male—no, that’s not my dish and I won’t stand for i t ! "
By KATHLEEN NORRIS
WO M E N have to do the childbearing, and women have to do
the ch ild-rearing,” w r i t e s G eorgia Crompton, “ In the years that childbearing and ch ildrearing go on, a man gets an advantage that he never loses.
“ In the early days of marriage,” this bitter letter continues, “ of course one wants children—a dear little boy and a dear little girl. The children come, after months of discomfort for the mother.. I don’t mean physical discomfort merely, although many women experience that, too. Even the luckiest women have to drag through the last six weeks, clumsy, shapeless, burdened. Then the ordeal of birth, never any picnic no matter what anyone says. And then care—care such as no man ever dreams of! In

H U SB A N D SLike most mothers, Georgia
Crompton is very busy and never seems to catch up with bet work. She has four children, all young. A lthough they are fairly well off, she cannot htre any help. Her nerves are frayed and her patience about exhausted.
What irks Georgia most, she tells Miss Norris, is the comparatively easy li fe her husband leads. He "can go off to bis go lf or fishing Sundays, meet bis friends for lunch; he is still him self." This freedom and independence is more than Georgia can bear. She feels that she is not getting het share of assistance and praise from her husband. Once in a while he w ill take the children for a walk or put them to bed, but generally be leaves all household duties to her.
Georgia is tired o f it all, she says. She is seeking a divorce. " I ’ve nothing specially against Dan, but he’s just like all the others." She happens to be a physician and she expects to accept an excellent position that a hospital has offered her.
Miss Norris answers that it is not in man’s nature to appreciate his w ife’s labors and sacrifices. He just takes it all for granted. I t is too bad, but that’s the way it is.
cessant, back-breaking care, and nowadays not even the freedom a nurse gives. Disorder, didies, sterilizers, washing, scalding, straining, making up wet cribs—oh, yes, all delight, if the man of the house is the right man.
“ But how often does he think of what his wife pays for those babies? They grow up, of course. In 10 years even the little third one is in school. But those 10 years have been her youth, 24 to 34 No real free fun in all that time for her; her whole life is sacrificed to them. Meanwhile, the husband’s life is untouched. He can be handsome, strong, free, go off for nis golf or fishing Sundays, meet his friends for lunch: he is still himself. And he can be as unjust to her as he likes—she is helpless. She must still be faithful to her babies.
They Help Now and Then.“ I know there are husbands who
help, when—and only when—they feel like it. They feel so virtuous when they do that one would like to strangle them. Sure, the poor little woman is over-burdened, sure Dad will walk 'round the block with the
| older two. She mustn’t work so hard. No way of organizing this sort of thing, making it easier, eh? Come on, kids. Dad’s on the job
i this morning. But, by the way, he’s got to get over to Bill White’s this afternoon. O K., Mommy? O.K.
“ Off he goes with the children for half an hour, and he feels good all
day. He feels good whenever Mommy is all broken down with fatigue, discouragement and blues. Aw, come on, honey, that’ s no way to feel. We’ re having a swell time. Look at Rhoda and Jack, no kids at all. What’d they give for our Terry, even if he has got impetigo?
“We have four children, and I ’m divorcing Dan,” the letter finishes. “ I ’ ve nothing special against Dan, he’s just like all the others. And I ’m crazy about the children! Molly, 10. the twins. Van and Junior 7. and Yvonne 3. They’ re fine children, but I ’m only one woman, and this is a three-woman job. There’s nothing I'd love so much as to have a good plain cook in my kitchen, and a capable nurse in my nursery. Someone to pick up toys, wipe dishes, put away laundry—not to mention collecting and soaping the eternal wash! But always to be a slave, always behindhand, always pitied by the kindly superior male—no, that’s not my dish, and I won’ t stand for it !”
She Is a Doctor.Georgia Crompton’s advantage is
that she is a fully qualified doctor. She has been offered a resident's job in a hospital. She will keep her older girl and the little one with her. The boys will go to Dan’s mother. Dan will live there, too Georgia won’t have an easy time: all hospitals are unavoidably over working their staff members now. But she feels that it will be more satisfactory than what she is doing as plain Mrs. Crompton, in a seven- room, two-story house in a quiet residential neighborhood.
And there it is, today’ s knottiest problem. The miserable problem that frets and nags at thousands of marriages that might well be saved. A man doesn’t appreciate what his wife is doing because it simply isn’t in man’s nature to do so. The woman wants children adores them when they come, and finds herself so swamped, so tired, so over-worked that she can’t stop to enjoy them.
The gracious old days of big houses, old family servants. Grandma and Aunt Carrie as assistants, are over. They won’t come back. The salaries of a cook and nurse would come to a little more than the Crompton’s entire income. Georgia doesn’t charge Dan with the intemperance, extravagance or tight-fistedness with which many women charge their men. Appar ently he is just one of those vain, unthinking, complacent men who take for granted a comfortable home, clean, well-fed children—all managed by a devoted, pleasant, tidy, efficient wife, manager, cook, nurse, marketer and companion all rolled up in the soul, body and mind of one small woman.

Jacket Racket — Shorter than- knee-length coats are the big favor

assessor the appeal can be carried to the tSate Board of Tax Appeals.
Assessor Dillon explained that he is working for the supreme welfare and best interests of the community in sed ing to it that equalized taxation prevails and added that almost daily people visit him and ask him to reduce taxes. He added: “I have a duty to perform, if I were to cut taxes for everyone the borough would be without revenues to meet its expenses."
Councilman H. D. Albert reminded his colleagues the present situation was why he ment board. His motion to have a vote on the subject did not go through however.
Frank Hagerman, a local taxpayer, of Franklin Turnpike, filed an appeal with the County Board against an assessment of Dillon asking that it be reduced from $1,750 to $1,250. Dillon said he would fight this when it came up in the County Board.

Washington D igest/Top Republicans Angling For Presidential Candidacy
By BAUKHAGENews Analyst and Commentator.
WASHINGTON.—M ore than two weeks before congress adjourned, the las t b it of fight w ent out of it and it looked very m uch as though it would glide rapidly but sm oothly to an unperturbed finish.
Then the Missouri scandal raised its ugly head. Sen. James P. Kern (Rep., Mo.), insisted that he was going to present his resolution, S. Res. 150, to investigate the justice department’s handling of the alleged Kansas City vote frauds in 1946. This, despite the fact that the judiciary committee of the senate already had decided against such a probe.
To the Republicans this was by<S- no means an unpleasant dish to
have on the fire for they intend to make it one of the pieces de resistance of the c a m p a ig n . But they didn’t want to start it cooking before adjou rn m en t f o r they realized that while too many cooks can’t spoil t h i s b r o t h , i t might make everybody late for dinner — dinner back home.
The Democrats, of course, were set to fight it and some of the Republicans rather than prolong the battle, wanted to forget it for the present.
It couldn’t be entirely neglected for, despite violent digging on the part of the Republican and Democratic national committees, no really luscious campaign issue has been unearthed.
The Pendergast issue will be used but It cannot be depended upon as a major weapon in the battle of 1948.
At present the Republicans, although they are optimistic enough concerning the final victory, realize that it cannot be achieved without some heavy artillery capable of smashing the Democratic defensive, the strongest feature of which to date is the poll—the poll that showed In July that Harry Truman still had a 54 per cent popular majority.
That is why a lot of politicians on Capitol Hill are saying: "We’ll win with Dewey,” not just, "We’ll win.”
You’d be surprised to see how many good Democrats turn sadly away, without replying to the Republican boast.
There is one group, of course, which is insisting stubbornly: “We’ll win with Taft.” They may admit if you put them in a comer that they can’t "win with Taft now,” because of the positive evidence reflected in the Truman poll and the negative evidence revealed in the Taft poll But, they say, “Taft hasn’t started to campaign. When he does he’ll change all that.”
How about Warren of California, toward whom those who like neither Taft’s conservatism nor Stassen’s liberalism nor Dewey’s deweyism are looking hopefully? Well, there is one story that Warren couldn’t possibly swing the No. 1 place and that he doesn’t want the No. 2 job— that what he does want is the attorney generalship.
At this writing nobody is afraid of the formation of a third party by the left-wingers who would follow Wallace In the hope of building him up for 1952 or merely to spite everybody else.
As to a “revenge” labor vote for the Taft-Hartley act, Taft’s friends are going to insist that he was the man who saved it from being a really vicious anti-labor weapon.Shortly after the veto was overridden, he indicated that the clauses which muzzle the labor press and prevents them from expressing their political views should be amputated.
In fact, some people who are much farther to the left than Taft, in both parties, insist that this bill is going to lose its terrors with time, that familiarity will bring, not coo-
* r • ~ ~ \ u
tempt, but the realization that it may be “used” by both management and labor to their advantage just as the railway labor act, much- belabored in its early days, eventually became a useful all-around gadget.
Meanwhile, the White House contingent has not been heard humming Tosti’s "Goodbye.”Advertising Council Serves the Public
The big, bad novel about advertising at its blooming worst was called ”The Hucksters,” a best seller highly salted with erotica which has been turned into a movie. There is no accounting for tastes, and I won’t object if you see the picture and like it. All I ask: “Don’t accept the advertising sequences as the literal truth.
There is much about advertising I could loudly decry (and often do) at the risk of biting the hand that is not feeding me. But there are “hucksters” who are undertaking projects of a very decent sort of which you may not be aware.
Maybe in these past few months you’ve asked yourself: Why doesn't somebody DO something about a lot of things.
Something about the people killed or injured in automobile accidents every year.
Something about housing. The war ended two years ago. Yet the land of the free still isn’t providing homes for the brave. Shame on all of us!
Something about the shortage of medical services. Patients are neglected, hospital wards closed because the nation desperately needs nurses. Training them is a long- range, national job.
Something about world trade. Our economic future depends on unhampered world trade. Yet pressure groups make our world trade a football for selfish interests.
Something about the nation's health. Between the ages of 15 and 34, tuberculosis is our greatest killer. At any given time. 500,000 people have it. But they don’t know it. Alarming? You bet It is.
Something about our kids. Your children are getting a rough deal In school. Too few teachers. Too antiquated equipment, old textbooks or none at all. Make you mad? It should.
What has all this to do with advertising? Just this: The abovewords were copied from an advertisement, a full-page advertisement in a recent New York Times, and perhaps other papers by this time.
It isn’t an ordinary ad. It is not directed primarily to the people without homes, without nurses, it is directed to the persons and organizations who can help bring these facts home to the general public—to you. It is an ad written by and about the Advertising Council, concerning an operation of which almost everybody is conscious but about which few people know the details.
It is an operation based on giving away what the givers ordinarily sell —advertising space, advertising ideas, advertising copy. It answers the question: "Why doesn’t somebody DO something?” The reply is —it’s given in works as well as words—"Somebody IS.”
The council grinds nobody’s axe except yours, the public’s, seeks no profits, asks no expense account, has only one objective: To make America a still better place than it already is.
The Advertising Council was born a week after Pearl Harbor when Donald Nelson, about to take over chairmanship of the war production board, called in a group of advertising executives and discussed with them what the average citizen could do to help victory—and incidentally, what would make him do it. You don’t have to sell Americans (particularly advertising men) on the selling power of advertising, and in a short time a council was formed which was soon helping to plant 50 million victory gardens, salvage a million pounds of tin, 23 million tons of papers, 538 million pounds of fats. Often it developed more humanpow- er than could be used as far as absorbing the product was concerned, but it got action, including helping to sell 800 million dollars worth of war bonds.
Now you are reading and hearing the results of the council’s peacetime efforts—they are embodied in the various forms at advertising of many firms, as spots on the radio, many other places. The council is providing suggestions, ideas, radio fact sheets and other material to members of business firms, unions, civic groups and other citizens who can put that tremendous power, advertising, to work personalizing big national problems. Doing it so “Americans can show the world that voluntary public action of a free people is mankind's best hope for the future.”
And a certain number of people (and nations) these days have to be shown.
This “showing” is a far cry from the doings of the photogenic "huckster."

Y\7XTH the Boston Braves of 1947 YV making threatening pennant
gestures for the first time since 1914, a somewhat inside story of the old Stallings outfit might be worth telling.
B. Southworth
In 1914, the Braves, under the fiery Miracle Man, George Stallings, were 15 games off the pace, as late ss July 4, and they were still last on July 18. Then the m ira c le o f b a se ball’s miracles took place, as they went •n to win the pennant and beat the Athletics 4 straight.
But part of the story of the Braves of 1914 goes back to the springtraining program of that year in the South—to a pair of great competitors, possibly the greatest that over wore spiked shoes. Their names were Maranville and Evers, the Rabbit and the Crab.
Heading north that year, I stopped of! for a few days at the Braves camp in March. The main idea was to call on a few old friends, such as Hank Gowdy, Johnny Evers and Rabbit Maranville. Intending to spend only a day or so, 1 hung around longer, for it was the most interesting camp I had run across.
In an exhibition game that afternoon, Evers and Maranville collided at second base, each trying to cover the bag. Both seemed to be badly Jolted, but neither gave any sign of being hurt.
I noticed Maranville, a few minutes later, looking for some lost object around second base.
“ What were you looking for?” I asked the Rabbit in the dugout later.
“ Two of my teeth,” he said, “ where my mouth collided with Johnny’s head. He’s got a tough head.”
They Could Take ItAnother member of the Braves
was hit, and he also showed no sign of any trouble, although he carried a lump above his elbow.
The team had Dick Rudolph, George Tyler and Bill James pitching, but they had never looked like Johnson, Alexander and Mathew- son, or Feller, Newhouse, Shea and Blackwell.
That night, Maranville told me what was taking place.
“ I lost two teeth,” he said, “ and I never blinked. Two men were
hit, and they never rubbed their arms. We’ve made a rule on this clnb that nobody can show he has been hurt, not even if he gets a concussion, not even If he gets his block knocked off. Don’t think losing two teeth was any fun. It hurt. But I never let anyone know it. I like that brand of baseball. Don’t ever let ’em know you’ve been hurt.”
The Victory DriveI lost considerable interest in this
Maranville philosophy when the Braves were last on July 4, 15 games away from the first place.
“ What about it now?” I said to the Rabbit, about that time.
“ Just warming up,” he said. "Just warming up. Watch us in the stretch.”
It was from late July on that the Braves, headed by the driving force of George Stallings, a great manager, a fighter from every known angle, plus Rudolph, Tyler and James, went to work.
Stallings told me later he lost four pairs of trousers sliding up and down the bench. “ I was full of bench splinters.” he said.
Dick Rudolph was one of the best, and one of the smartest pitchers In baseball history. Tyler and James came to his help. Day after day you got this refrain—“ Rudolph, Tyler and James.”
They caught the Giants In the stretch, picked up 15 games on one of McGraw’s good teams, and then wrecked the Athletics in four straight in the world series.
And all the Athletics had was Bender and Plank and Bush, Collins, Mclnnis, Baker, Barry and what looked to be one of the great teams of all time—a team that had won four pennants in five years. It wasn’ t even a contest.
Southivorth’s TeamNow the Braves of 1947, just 33
years later, under the able direction of Billy Southworth, another great manager, are among the teams to beat. These Braves are a much better ball club than the Braves of 1914. But, whether or not they can show the same amount of iron in their systems as this miracle squad offered against a forlorn hope, is another guess.
It isn’t often that any team has a Maranville and an Evers on the same squad, two blazing spots of flame.

Cotton corduroy is one of the Interesting fabrics of this season. Not only is it used for sportswear and suits in the line of wearing apparel, but also it’ s made up to be used in the home for slipcovers. It’ s particularly practical for couch or bed covers.
Heavy cotton damask is something you might consider seriously if you are doing over the house. Block and floral prints always look
A paper towel kept on the bottom of the hydrator will prevent rust from forming on the green, leafy vegetables stored within.
To ice cupcakes quickly, simply dip the tops in a bowl of icing and give the cupcake a twist when removing it.
After grating fresh, soft cheese, rub a piece of bread over the grater to clean it. This is simpler than washing.
When cutting celery, rhubarb or any other stalk vegetables and fruit, cut the whole stalk at once Instead of separating into pieces.
Vegetables broil more easily If they are dipped or brushed with oil before being placed on the rack for cooking.
Use scissors dipped In warm water for cutting dried fruit.
Egg beaters should be washed Immediately after use In cold water.
Wash lettuce and vegetables before storing in refrigerator. Store In waxed bags or in a hydrator if you want to prevent wilting. It’s nice to store parsley separately in a jar after it’s washed so it doesn’t get mixed up with all the other greens and vegetables on hand.

IN A certain southern farming * community, Eliza Higgins is the champion grumbler. To Eliza all people and all things are but fit subjects for complaint.
Last fall the county agent called at Eliza’s farm and, much to her displeasure. Insisted upon congratulating her upon her most successful farming season. Her cotton, he said, was wonderful, her corn magnificent, her truck crops the most bountiful in the county, and her potato crop, ah, that was the most wonderful of all!
But Eliza, buried in her usual impenetrable gloom, refused to be gratified.
‘ ‘Mrs. Higgins,” chided the agent, a little nettled at her lack of enthusiasm, “ you must admit that potato crop of yours is the finest in the state!”
“ Wal, I reckon it is," Eliza grudgingly admitted, “ but where in the heck are the bad ones for the hogs?”
Secret of Success Mrs. Crimpin, super-successful
boarding house operator, was briefing her new housekeeper.
After the woman had repeated the instructions her new employer had given her, Mrs. Crimpin admonished her by saying, “Laura, you’ve forgotten the most important detail. Can’ t you recall it?”
Laura considered a moment, end then she remembered.
“ Oh, yes,” she replied, “now I know. Whenever any bad news comes for a boarder—-say like e telegram and anything else that might be bad news—I’m to save it and give it to him just before mealtime!”
His Money’s Worth Sandy had been rescued from
a watery grave by the local boatman and now stood dripping on the bank of the river.
Said Sandy: “ I would gie ye a shillin’ but I’ve only got a two shillin’ piece on m e!”
“ Weil, we’ll soon square that,” remarked the boatman. “ Just jump in again!”
A Hot SpellIn the heat of summer a Kansas
farmer went to Colorado for a vacation. He climbed Pike's Peak, was overcome by the cold, rarefied air, and was pronounced dead by a physician. Officials wired relatives for Instructions on disposal of the remains; they were told to cremate the body and send the ashes home.
The late-lamented farmer was placed in a crematory. Hours later, the attendant returned and was amazed to find the Kansas farmer sitting up and grinning happily. “My goodness!’’ he told the attendant, mopping perspiration from his brow, “ it’s just like home. Another week of this, and the corn’i l be made.”
Slight MistakeA timid husband was sent to mar
ket to buy “drip-grind” coffee.He returned with the report that
there wasn’t any such thing as his wife wanted, and was asked, “What, exactly did you tell them I wanted?”
“ Just what you told me,” said the man. “ Leak-grind.”
Slim PickingsFirst Moth—What’s the matter,
Charlie? You look starved.Second Moth—No wonderl I just

Mayor James E. Daniels and his colleagues of the Waldwick Borough Council are often confronted with delicate problems and they manage to do their level best to give our community the best possible government.
The question of granting permission to various clubs, societies and organizations has become quite perplexing and something should be done to see to it that certain fixed revenues should be derived in ganting permission for the use of the municipal building.
W e believe that there should be a nominal fee charged to all organizations in order to prevent any discrimination. W e must realize that all expenses involved are met by the taxpayers of our community and therefore all organizations should pay a nominal fee. The situation has developed to a point that even out of town organizations are taking advantage of the good-heartedness of our Boro Fathers.
Whether organizations operate for profit or are non-profit they should and must pay a nominal fee to cover expenses for lights, heat and other incidentals. While they promise to leave the auditorium in good condition the records show that nearly always the various organizations have not done so. It means more work for the custodian.
W e believe therefore that starting from January 1, 1948, such a policy should be promulgated by Mayor Daniels and his colleagues whereby each and every organization seeking permission to hold dances and entertainments and other social affairs at the Municipal building and also for clubs holding meetings or dinners should he asked to pay a nominal fee, namely $5' for meetings in the council chamber and $25 to $35 for the use of the auditorium.
It may not be amiss to state that halls are rented in Paterson, Hackensack and Jersey City $75 to $100 with higher price on Sundays.
O LD SCHOOL P R O P E R T Y S H O U L D BE R E V E R T E D TO BORO TO A I D PROGRESS
The old school property on Franklin Turnpike and Prospect Street is the most valuable vicinity in W aldwick. It was given as a gift to the local American Legion. That property can only be used for clubhouse purpose and not for business ventures.
The American Legion of Waldwick is unable to sell the property to anyone and a more elaborate clubhouse may be erected on that site some years from now, although the Post has a hut now at southeast corner of Prospect St. and Franklin Turnpike.
'File fact remains that the property if reverted to the borough government could be sold at public auction. That site could be utilized for bank' office building and stores greatly in demand in that area.
W e suggest that a conference be arranged by Mayor Daniels with the members of the Board o f Education and the Walter Nightengale Post o f the American Legion and see what can be done to utilize that site for business purposes and if it is at all permissible the Legion could sell the land to prospective buyers. W e are primarily interested in building up Waldwick’s business center that may look better than other business centers in surrounding municipalities.
