Or squirt kerosene from a small oil can on the individual plants. Ammonium sulphate retards weed growth and promotes grass growth. Spray with this, half a pound in a gallon of water, tw-o or three times a year, applying a gallon to each hundred square feet. Top dressings help in the xveed fight by making grass plants strong er so that they crowd out the w’eeds, especially if the latter have been thoroughly dug out so that there are only a few individual weed plants to contend with. Extra watering helps greatly, es pecially in July and August, when witch or crab grass makes its great est and quickest growth. Soak your lawn liberally; one good soaking is worth a dozen light sprinklings. —From House Beautiful. Marriage Ban for Employed Brings Attack Voters League Study Declares Attitude Fascist. America’s attitude toward women and employment, which the Na tional League of Women Voters considers “characteristic of that philosophy ot government which we know as P’ascism” is dangerous enough to present a real problem to women, the league believes. Under direction of Mrs. Edith Valet Cook New Haven, Conn.. Yale law school graduate, the league has prepared a special study, which is *o be brought before Indiana leagues by Mrs. Paul Ford, Ko komo. Mrs. Ford is the new gov ernment and legal status of women committee chairman of the Indiana league, appointed at the recent state convention at Culver. Ind. The report warns that employed married women are facing a serious crisis, threatening the social and economic position of the women themselves, the integrity of govern ment service, and the preservation of efficient conduct of private busi ness. Efficiency Is Threatened “We, in this country, are not immune, in spite of our democratic non-Fascist institutions,” the analy sis says. “In many cities through out the country, school boards have adopted a definite policy against the employment of married women teachers, and a similar attitude has been taken by state and municipal officials in some sections toward the employment of married women in any government positions.” “Such a policy not only is a grave injustice to the women con cerned, but a serious threat to the efficiency of the government service, because in the conduct of that huge enterprise the widest possible latitude of choice is needed to find the best qualified persons. To eliminate a large group of the pop ulation. such as married women, from the field of choice is a seri ous blow to sound personnel methods. Following reviews of the hardships invoked by the present discrimina tory section of the Economy Act, the analysis states. “Society is con cerned because the Federal gov ernment gives an example to the states of a type of discrimination which serves to break down the whole merit system principle.” Blow to Marriage Opposition to married women in employment is a step in the di rection of depriving all women of their hard-won social and economic progress, the league believes. By such discrimination, its an alysis claims, the Federal govern ment not only is taking away from many of its citizens their right to work, but “is actually helping to break down the institution of mar riage.” Mrs Cook’s study points out that married women, work for the same reasons that married men do. “The fact that about one-third of E VEN'fS SORORITIES Alpha Pi Sigma.
