Women Present
Planks to
Parties
The following planks will be sub
mitted by the National League of
Women- Voters to the platform
committees of the parties with the
hope that they will be written into
the party platforms of 1920:
' I.
Child Welfare.
Realizing that the hope of the na
tion lies in the children of today,
the citizens of tomorrow, we pledge
ourselves to support:-
Adequate appropriation for the
children's bureau. . ,
The prohibition of child labor
through the United States.
Thes protection of .infant life
through a federal program for ma
ternity and infancy care. '
II.
Education.
AVe recognize tha the appalling
percentage of illiteracy among both
native and "foreign born in the
United States is a blot upon our
civilization,' the lack of understand
ing of the essentials of good gov
ernment, a menace to our future, Wc
therefore dvocate: i
A federal department of educa
tion.
Federal aid where necessary f6r
the removal of illiteracy and for the
increase of teachers' salaries. - X
Instructions in; the dVies and
ideals of citizenship for the youth
of our land 'and . the newcomer to
our shores.
III.
The Home and High Prices.
As a means of increasing the effi
ciency of the "home and reducing
the cost of living we favor:
Increased federal support for vo
cational training (in home econom
ics, a- ,
Such federal regulation and su
pervision of the marketing and dis
tribution of food as will tend to
equalize and lower prices and the
enactment and enforcement of such
other measures as will freely open
the channels of trade, prevent excess
profits and eliminate unfair compe
tition and the control of the necessi
ties of life.
IV. V
Women in Gainful Occupations.
In order to promote the welfare
of millions of women engaged in
gainful occupations, we advocate:
ine estannsnment ot a women .
bureau in the Department of Labor
with an appropriation adequqate for
the investigation of all matters per
taining to wage earning women, for
the purpose of j determining stan
dards and policies which will im
prove their working conditions and
increase their efficiency.
The appointment of women in the
mediation and conciliation service
of the United States Department of
Labor and on any industrial com
missions and tribunals which may
hereafter be created.
The establishment of a joint fed
eral and state employment service
with women's departments under the
direction of technically qualified
women.
A reclassification of the federal
civil service wifh the merit system
of appointment and promotion, free
from discrimination on the- ground
of sex, and with xa wage or salary
scale determined by the skill de
manded for the work and in no wise"
below the cost of living as estab
lished by official investigation.
V V.
Public Health and Morals.
We commend the effort for moral
protection of the fighting forces of
the nation made during the world
war and we urge a continuance of
appropriations to carry an active
campaign for prevention of venereal

VI." - ,
Independent Citizenship for Married
Women.
Believing that- American-born
women resident in the United States
should not forfeit their citizenship
by marriage with aliens and that
alien women should not acquire citi
zenship by marriage with Americans,
but rather ty meeting the same re
quirements jis those provided for the
naturalization ot alien rntn, we urge
federal legislation insuring to the
women of the United States the
same independent status for citizen
ship as that which now obtains for
men. i

. What's Yours?
Women's Ideas That Paid Big Dividends
By Frances Garside. '
, Turkish Towels Helped Olive Earle's "Big Idea" Grow Bigger.
Her name is Olive Earle, and she had a temporary position
trying to make the gift fit the purse of the buyer. and the wishes
of the recipient, in a gift shop. In her work she saw what pleased
thephildren most", and it was while watching them that she had her
big idea.
That evening' she went to a 10-cent store, bought a Turkish
towel, and Tate in her room that night she cut out a lamb and
iiuffed it with cotton.
It was a fat, misshapen lamb, with a silly nose, and wobbly
legs."" It did not seem to know (and neither did its creator) that it
was ,to become the ancestor of a flock of sheep that would travel
v.herever' there are children and that is everywhere.
The lamb cost her 10 cents; she sold it, next day for $1.50. She
made more lambs,-selling them as fast, as she could make them.
She engaged assistants and began tp turn out whole flocks, sup
plementing them with giraffes, lions, elephants a complete men
agerie of fat, .wobbly, stuffed 'animals. '
Her work attracted attention. It was taken over by a corpora
tion. Her menagerie is now cut out by electricity, andMiss Earle
iscn joying a royalty. ' - t
It was her big idea, and she was not afraid to put it into action.
y Everyone has a big idea. What, have you. done with yours?

All Need Health -Education
Says ,
'Doctor y
"There is a vital' need toj educat
ing women to a pr6per valuation of
their, health," . saj(s Dr. Augusta
Rucker, a New York physician and
director of the division bf liealth of
the social education' department
of the V. W. C. A. ,"Iu examining
414 Successful business women re
cently, not one measured up to nor--niaU
These are intelligent women
who are; fairly representative of
health ideals."
Health , centers, wlif re girls and
women can be examii '1 free of
charge and advised in health mat
ters, where they can be enrolled in
gym or diwicing classes, are being
established by -the Y. W. C- A.
Social education department in some
of the large cities. New York City
has tjie first model and Cleveland,
O., is soon to open one. The pur
pose of the centers is ''to keep
women well-to prevent ill health
rather than cure it." Lack of exer
cise and. faulty eating play the mast
havoc .with Rirls' health nowadays,
says Dr. Rucker.
A $500,000 fund is being raised in
St. Louis to finance two hotels for
the accommodation women in industry.
Admitted to Harvard
The admittance of women to the
new graduate school of education
at Harvard university marks the
first time that women have been ad
mitted to a regular department of
the university. The Harvard school
is said to be now the only institu
tion in the world devoted exclusively
to professional training in education
for men and women who have re
ceived the degree of Bachelor of
Arts.
