CLEVELAND (UP) The modern Turkish girl isn't so' far behind after all. She can have "dates" and she can vote. Miss Gertrude Benditsch, who spent 18 years In Turkey, has re turned with word that Turkish women now enjoy the freedom that American women take for granted Blonde, attractive Miss Benditsch was graduated from the American College in Istanbul in 1936. She came to Cleveland to Btudy nursing at Lakeside hospital. She is the daughter of a Greek mother and an Austrian engineer. "Turkish women go out with men as do the girls in this country," she said. "Of course the educated women have adapted themselves more rapidly to modern .ways, but then that is true anywhere." She said that it has been-just 20 years since Turkish girls - emerged from the seclusion of the harem and discarded their face veils. In that time they have become more com pletely "up-to-date", than most west ern people realize. Turkey's feminine population has full suffrage, according to Miss Ben ditsch. "They can vote and hold office. They also may own property," she said. And the "career woman" has in vaded the new Turkey. Miss Ben ditsch said that Turkish girls are employed in business and the pro fessions. Some have received mili tary training. To whom does today's Turkish miss owe her freedom? To Kemal Ataturk, known as "the strong man of Turkey," Miss Benditsch said.. "The young people of Turkey are solidly behind Kemal Ataturk and are trying hard to modernize the country, she said. She described the "strong man." His Eyes Are Piercing "He is a blond man of tremen dous vitality and personality, . pierc ing green eyes." She said it was necessary to give up certain luxuries if yoti live In Turkey, but that it is worth the sacrifice. It is pleasant living there, particularly because the people are not in a continual hurry as they are in the United States, she said. "The chief difference between Tur kish and American men and women is the difference in the tempo of their lives," Miss Benditsch said. "I don't understand why people here" work so hard during the day and then dash hurriedly off to en gage In strenuous exercise or play." Miss Benditsch plans to return to Turkey to enter the public health service," when she has completed her hospital training In Cleveland. The health service is being developed rapidly under Kemal Ataturk, she said. PENSION PLAN USING FEDERAL SCRIPT PUSHED SPRINGFIELD, 111. (UP) An old age pension plan proposed by an Illi nois legislator may reach the floor of congress next year. It asks high er payments for aged persons to be financed by transaction script. State Rep. Thomas J. Lenane, (D.). Quincy, has drafted a bill for presentation to congress to stabilize monthly income at $75 for indivi duals and $100 for married couples over 60. He proposes that script be issued to the recipients and that 2 per cent to be paid on each transfer as a means of financing the program. Stamps ro punch marks would re cord each transaction in which a piece of script was involved. When the tax equals the face value, the script would be redeemable at any post office for currency. Lenane expects his bill to be In troduced by an Illinois representative or an eastern senator. It provides that the total award must be spent each month. Lenane, a watchmaker, is unop posed for re-election to. the house of State 'General assembly In No vember. He has served two terms as state representative.

Reform of Pri mary Laws of State Needed District Attorney Votava of Omaha Points Need at Falls City Club Dinner. FALLS CITY, Neb., Oct. 6 (UP) Reform of the Nebraska primary law is all the more important because of present world conditions, Joseph T. Votava, Omaha, U. S- district attor ney told a joint meeting of Lions and Rotary club here last .night. Speaking in behalf of his plan for pre-primary conventions to recom mend party candidates, Votava said recent assaults by dictator nations upon democracies apparently are suc ceeding. Nations are abandoning democratic forms of government, either by persuasion or force, he said. "A generation ago practically the entire world was governed in a democratic way," he said. "Now England and ourselves are practi cally the only democracies left. - "Democracy's strength in Britain and over here, I believe, lies in the fact that both countries have been mainly administered by two political parties. Occasionally another party succeeds in Britain. "The peoples of those democracies that have disappeared were split UP into as many as a dozen parties. As a result no faction represented a ma- jorit of the people and consequently such a. government was slow, ineffi cient, and never sure the, people were behind it." Best results, Votava said, come trom the two party system. But, he added, sometimes the parties become mere political machines. "Under our Nebraska primary sys tem we are putting the cart before the horse," Votava said. "We select ur candidates and then adopt a platform. I our political parties are ;o remain a useful instrument of overnrnent they must stand for principles and policies. They must declare their principles and policies and then nominate candidates who stand for these policies and will carry them out if elected."

Census Director Says Woman Labor Gluts Market Recommends to President Monopoly Committee Study Matter for Report on Correction.. By' SANDOR- S. KLEIN WASHINGTON, Oct. 8 (UP) John D. Biggers, director of the fed eral unemployment census, informed President Roosevelt today that women workers have glutted the labor'market and recommended that the monopoly investigating committee study the problem. In a letter to Mr. Roosevelt resign ing his post, the Toledo industrialist census disclosed that 2,740,000 more persons all of them women entered or became "available for employment since 1930 than was expected on the basis of past experience. He transmitted to the president complete census report, in four bound volumes which he said "will continue to be of considerable value as a base point from which to project trends. Diggers, whose resignation was ac cepted by the president effective Oct 31, reported that the census cost only $1,896,595 although congress appro priated $5,000,000 for it. The census established that last November there were 39,978,000 men and 14,496,000 women between '15 and 74 years of age either employed or available for employment . Those available include both unemployed and relief workers. "The most significant fact which this enumeative test revealed," Big gers wrote, "is that 2,740,000 more persons have entered the labor market since 1930 than were to have been expected from the past experience This entire . increase is made up of women workers, which fact, in my opinion, constitutes an economic and social trend worthy of consideration by the temporary national economic committee (the monopoly investigat ing committee). Census bureau experts said -they were ' 'amazed" by this revelation They had expected on the basis of the 1930 census and the normal population increase, that last November's census would show aproximately 11,750,000 women either employed or available fir employment.., They blamed the economic depres sion of the "abnormal" Increase, ex planing that normally women enter the labor market at the age of 20 and drop out shortly because of marriage or other reasons. But when male members of the family lost their johs or could not find employment, the experts said, most employed women retained their jobs. Replying to Biggers, Mr. Roosevelt extended his "hearty congratulations upon the successful completion of a fine piece of work." "The results of this work in their final form will be a gold mine of in formation to all who desire to go to the bottom of the pressing question of unemployment in all its diverse and complex phases," he said.
