Miss Mary Anderson, director of the woman’s bureau of the United States Department of Labor, told the conference on women in indus try, which is being held here in con nection with the convention of the fEational League of Women Voters. Miss Anderson said that about 4,090,000 women are covered by such laws, the most numerous of Which are those that govern the .hours of women labor. This limi tation varied from eight to 11 hours a day and 15 states prohibit the em ployment of women at night in cer tain occupations. Forty-one states have laws that women shall be furn ished seats at their work and 13 states have minimum woman wage laws. “It has not been the experience of the bureau that these laws have kept women from obtaining em ployment or from advancing in their chosen field,’’ she said. ‘On the contrary the census of 1929 shows that the number of gainfully employed women in all occupations is increasing and that the number of women in the higher paid occupa • tions shows a much larger per cent of increase over 1910 than do all classes combined.” I Cars Washed, Polished I :< and Doped A trial is all I ask.

HUNT NEA Service Writer WASHINGTON, May 28.—Wash ington has received a journalistic jolt. It's in a daze waiting 1 for the fireworks to start. All of which is ♦he result of the announcement that George Harvey of Peacham, Vt., picker of presi dents and ex-ambassador • to the Court of St. James, will take charge on June 1, as “editorial director” of the Washington Post. The Fost is owned by E. B. Mc- Lean, whose private wires and tele grarfis were the subject of consider able interest during one stage of ti e Fall-Sinclair oil lease investigation. » » » The question that is puzzling official Washington, and which politicians would give a lot to know is: “What will Harvey d 0 with Me Lean’s newspaper?” The attitude of both McLean and Harvey toward the Coolidge candi dacy is a topic for endless specula tion. McLean was one of the clos est friends of President Harding, but it has been intimated there is little love lost on either side between Coolidge and McLean. Harding made Harvey ambassa dor to Great Britain, but Harvey resigned the post shortly after Coo lidge entered the White House. » * * All of which may or may not he significant. Harvey, as a Democrat, played an active part in putting over Grover Cleveland and Woodrow Wilson for' president. Switching to the Re-! publican side, he helped roll up a* 7,000,000 majority for Harding in' 1920. j The McLean papers originally] were Democratic. Later they were; “Independent.” During the Harding j campaign they took their place as active supporters of the Republican program. “What’ll they do in 1924?” i s the present question. The answer, how ever, is awaited with curiosity rath er than trepidation by both sides. ♦ ♦ ♦ The probable answer is that' George Harvey of Peacham, Ver mont, will support Calvin Coolidge of Plymouth, Vermont, Green Moun tain boys must stick together. But from his past record, first with the Springfield Republican and Chicago Daily News, later with the New York World and still later is editor of Harper’s Weekly, the North American Review and Har vey’s Weekly, the only thing cer tain is that his position is uncertain. * « * The window dresser had done a good job, and the one perfect peach of a hat in the center stood out like a diamond in a platinum setting. It was but natural, then, that the dark haired, brown-eyed woman who was passing hesitated, wavered and went inside. She hadn’t intended I buying a hat that morning, it was evident, but —when a woman sees a hat she likes there’s only one an swer. The clerk obligingly brought the hat from the window. It was tried on. Then half a dozen others were examined, but always the customer returned to the first. “I’ll take this one,” she said finally, holding out the perfect peach that had first caught her eye. “Do you accept charge accounts?” “Certainly. What is the neme and address?” “Mrs. Calvin Coolidge, the White House,” was the answer. Which proves that, when it comes to hats, the First Lady is just) as', susceptible to the lure of millinery as the lowliest of her sisters. TURKISH WOMEN GET MANY DIVORCES NOW CONSTANTINOPLE, May 28. Marriages 7,000, divorces 9,000. These are the net figures on the balance sheets of Constantinople so far this year. It was obtained under the regime of ‘new women” free dom, which does away with the veil and the harem and all the other at tributes or any symbol of woman’s slavery. The authorities are in de spair to stem the tide or to find a remedy for it. Some irreverent per sons, men, of course, blame the veil or rather the absence of it. “What beauty and mystery one could dream of as hidden behind that veil!” they say. “And, behold! What the removal of the veil re vealed.” Strong <1 J I , If you get real mad at the phone operator, you can tear up the telephone book—that is, if you have the strength of Lucile Kaswell, one of the world’s strongest women who is shown here taking a little exercise.
