Omaha women who are arde»t politicians declare that brfcins count for everything in politics. Smiles and artful wiles, coupled with dashing clothes, sre not going to help the women win In the political game, they say. Personality helpa In all walks of life, they agree. "Women with the best Interests of politics at heart wouldn’t think of using their charms to further their Interests," said Miss Gladys Shamp, chairman of women In Industry for the Nebraska League of Women voters. Miss Shamp has been active in politics ever since her graduation from Central High school in 1914. Brains Count Most. “Women who are now In politics, are not the kind to stoop to using their personal charm to get there. They are too high minded. A woman with the most magnetic personality may get votes but to stay In politics It takes brains, just as anything else worth while does. It is only the brainy, capable woman who holds of fice. » Mrs. Draper Smith, delegate to the republican national convention In Cleveland, declared that action ac complished at the convention was out and dried and that women there presided intelligently at the meetings.

"The earnest women in poll tics make the men lose out by com parison, One woman at the conven tion who took everyone by storm when she mounted the platform was not at all dressed up and as large a* a man. The house was silent when she spoke and she finished in three minutes of the five allotted her. It is absolutely not the woman who relies on charm who gets there; it is the one with brains.
