Today’s Women
By DOROTHY ROI
AP Women's Editor
What holds women back?
This is the subject of deep re
search by members of the Na
tional Federation of Business and
Professional Women's Oulu, as
voiced recently by their president,
Helen G. Irwin of Dee Moines,
tews.
And the answer, after all these
generations of suffragettes and
equal rights crusaders, is just the
same aa it always hat been:
What bolds women back ia—
women.
It is e basic fact of human na
ture that tew women consider a
career pore important than bus-
I band, chflteua And a home. They
have ceroars.y4 becaese of econ
omic necessity ter the most part
Butte e pinch, faced with a
choice between compute dedica
tion to office or borne, the home
usually wins tea walk.
There are more working women
te America today than ever be
fore. Approximately one-third of
the national working forces ere
woman. Many of them are highly
successful too in every field from
banking to bricklaying. But the
normal woman considers even a
top-brass job in business or indus
try secondary to her mate job as
a successful human being in the
multiple rote of wife, mother and
homemaker.
Thet's why most women don’t
go all out to bt president of the
company or boss of tec shop, even
when they spend eight hours a
day helping earn the family in-,
coma. Such ambition requires a
singleness of purpose that leaves
no room for all the other feminine
duties—and joys.
There are, of course, a few
women who have made the choice
te favor of personal ambition—
who have shut the door on fam
ily responsibilities end devoted all
their efforts to reaching the top of
their chosen careen. But most Uf
them find IPs rather lonely at the
top.
That's the way things an, and
1 doubt if they change much te tee
next 1M year*.
Women wfll keep on working, as
long aa living costs and taxes make
ft necessary—but rarely will they
put their hearts wholly te their
jabs, because than an other
dstes open those hearts.
And that’* what holds women
heck.

RED CHINA MAY
ASK U.N. ENTRY
By JOK HALL
WASHINGTON (ft-Sen. H. Alex
ander Smith (R-KJ) said today
that “As things stand now, I am
ran we weald esc the veto” to
Mode the entrance of Communist
China into the United Nations.
Smith said te an interview he
was greatly pleased at assurances
given the Foreign Relations Com
mittee by a termer member, Henry
Cabot Lodge Jr., that this country
can rod should use its veto to
keep Communist Chine out of the
U. N.
Lodge, former Massachusetts
senator and now chief U. S. rep
resentative to the U. N., testified
before the committee yesterday te
lively support of the world organ
ization. It was his first report to
Congress on his stewardship as
U. N. ambassador.
Smith, who beads the Fsr East
subcommittee of the foreign rela
tions group, said be expected “a
lot of beat” from America’s friends
and enemies to get Red China into
the U. N. after a truce te Korea.
“That's when we’re going to
have to have a stiff backbone,”
he said.*
Both branches of Congress are
on record against admitting the
Chinese Communists to the U. N.
President Eisenhower has said he
is against it under present world
conditions. The United States has
never recognized the Communist
government at Peiping and China’s
U. N. seat is occupied by the Chi
nese Nationalists.
But the New Jersey senator said
he ’expects the Communists to put
on an adroit campaign to get Red
China into the U. N.
“I would not be at all surprised,”
he said, “if they offered to permit
unification of Item te return for
admission. They might even agree
to stop the shooting in Indochina.
“If the Chinese Communist re
gime gets into the United Nations
and consolidates Its position, all
of Asia will be lost,”
Under the U. N. Charter, China
is a permanent member of the
Security Council, the most power
ful unit of the organization. There
has beed some question whether
the veto is applicable to tho Red
China situation. The veto clearly
applies to tee admission of anew
member, but it has been argued
that the substitution of representa
tives of one regime for another is
a procedural question and not sub
feet to the fete.
However, Smith and Son. Wiley
(R-Wia) both said Lodge held tee
view that an effort by the Commu
nist regime to take Nationalist
China’s U. N. seat would be a
substantive question, to which the
veto applies.
Bookie Take Low
BOSTON (I) Massachusetts
bookies had a poor year, indeed,
based on the taxes they paid tee
federal government.
Internal Revenue Director Thom
as Scanlon said last night the 28
dutifully-registered Massachusetts
borides paid a total of but $36,879
te excise taxes te the fiscal year
ended last June 8.
The excise tax is 10 per cent
of the gross take. That would put
I average gross receipts at $1,630
per boride, as the average tax paid
was $lB.

THE WORLD
TODAY
By JAMIS MARLOW
WASHINGTON UP-Congress is
putting off until next year what
it didn’t do this year. From the
standpoint of lawmaking, this was
an undistinguished year. There’s
no guarantee next year will be any
more productive.
This year’s legislative dreariness
was obscured by the lightning
flashes of personality which ilium
tested the Capitol from time to
time and gave it a liveliness
otherwise lacking.
There was the picture of Presi
dent Eisenhower, new in his job,
trying to push and pull his Repub
lican-controlled Congress along the
road he wanted ft to travel while
still learning how to deal with the
lawmakers.
Individuals like Sen. Joseph Mc-
Carthy (R-Wu) looking for sub
versives and aging Rep. Daniel A.
Reed (R-NY) fighting against ex
tension of the excess profits tax
lent color to the show.
There was also the very human
drama of Eisenhower and Sen. Taft
(R-Ohio), who had been rivals for
the Republican nomination in ’52,
learning to work together in *53.
If the congressional performance
was slow this year, ft could be
excused on the ground that anew
administration was trying to get
adjusted to its new responsibilttes,
and was feeling its way along.
Next year ft will have no such
excuse. Next year the Republican
administration can be fairly judged
on fta performaace. And ft will
have a particularly good reason
for wanting to put on a satisfactory
one te 184.
Next year is an election year, the
first time the Republicans have
had to face the judgment of the
voters since taking office te Janu
ary 183. All 435 House seats and
one-third of the 8 Senate seats are
at stake in the elections of Novem
ber 184.
At present the Republican ma
jorities are so hair-thin that a few
changes in the 184 election re
sults could give the Democrats
control of Congress.
This would mein for President
Eisenhower, still in charge of the
executive branch of the govern
ment, that for the following two
years he’d have to depend uptre p
Democra tic-controlled Congress for
the success of any programs he
offered.
It is one of the political legends,
not necessarily true at all, that
members of Congress, more con
scious at tee voters, always do
more in an election year.
Actually the 184 election results
may be determined by factors not
at all connected with the record
established by Congress—perhaps
by events not even dreamed of at
this moment
For instance, if the elections
were being held this November,
and if the Eisenhower administra
tion had managed to get a truce
te Korea, the Republicans probably
would bo swept baek into office.
The same may not be true te
November 184. For te that year
the results of the truce—possibly
drawn out frustrating peace nego
tiations and even ugly develop
ments—might sway the voters the
other way.
So Eisenhower will have his
hands full in ’54, not only in trying
to lead his Republicans in Congress
to a good showing, butte making
a record for his Republican admin
istration in foreign affairs as well.
This year the biggest single piece
of controversial legislation was on
giving tee states rights, out to their
historic boundaries, to the oil te
the waters off their shores. And
Eisenhower succeeded, after a bit
ter struggle, in getting the excess
profits tax extended another six
months.
He seems reasonably sure, be
fore this session of Congress ends,
of getting the reciprocal trade
agreement program extended an
other year. And before ft quits this;
year Congress has some other
pieces of “must” legislation on its
340,000 European refugees over a 1
three-year ported; authority for
Elsenhower to send surplus food
abroad in an emergency.
But put off until next year, with
no certainty of achievement, an
changes te the Tafi-Hartley Act;
the question of statehood for Ha
waii and Alaska. *
And the Republicans will have
to find ways of raising money to
meet government expenses and
deriding whether to scuttle foreign
aid, a step which might wreck
Eisenhower’s foreign program.
