Washington. — Stenator Hatch
(D), N. M„ charged hia nrn par
ty yesterday,^wtth evading the po
litics laws and demanded that It
abandon Its' "convention books”
carrying adverttsin? from corpor-
atlona.
He contended 'that any purch
ase of the book would violate the
Hatch act. As for\lts advertising
the senator conceded that the so
licitation before thi^ Hatch ‘ law
was enacted probably was techni
cally legal but held that It was
“clearly an avaslon If not a vio
lation of the corrupt pracUcee
act’’ which forbids corporations
to make political contributions.
"There Is Just one tWng to do
about this conventloi^ book,”
Hatch told the Senata “Regard
less Of what the cost may be or
what effect It may have. It should
ibe discontinued right now.
"As I said last week to the Re
publican national committee,
•obey the spirit as well as the let
ter of the law,’ so I say this
week to the Democratic national
committee, ‘obey the spirit as
well as the letter of the law’.”
t*st Monday Hatch criticized
an Interpretation of the Hatch
act’s restrictions on political con
tributions and expenditures made
by Henry P. Fletcher, general
counsel of the Republican na
tional committee, contending that
It was (fesigied to circumvent the
law.
‘•I think the things that my
own national committee is doing
today or proiposing to do with the
publication and sale of the con
vention ibook.” Hatch declared,
“amounts just as much to an
evasion of the law. an evasion
of the principle and purpose, as
the plan that Mr. Fletcher con
ceived and which I denounced
;ast week.
“I do not apply a rule to the
Republican parly which I do not
also apply to the Democratic par
ity.”

In this country we are rich In
the legends of great wotnen who
stood shoulder to shoulder with
their husbands In the settlement
and development of the country.
But during the last two genera
tions women as a whole have
been L'.ore served than serving of
their country! ’This was largely
due to the effects of American
Industry which freed women from
household drudgery by producing
a host ot household conveniences
and brought her new opportuni
ties for entertainment by the de
velopment of the automobile, the
moving picture and the radio. It
was all very pleasant and easy
and we took to our new way of
life with enthusiasm and believ
ed that the great days when wom
en could be of use to this coun
try were all in the past.
But today once more It Is nec
essary for the women of this
country to take their places be
side the men if the freedom we
have hitherto taken for granted
Is to be maintained for our
selves and for our children. This
time we are not required to
fight or till the soil or carry the
banner of civilization into some
remote outpost but to help to
create the most powerful ot all
weapons in a Democracy—public
opinion.
We must realize clearly what
it is that gives us our unique
privileges in this country as wom
en and as human beings and
through personal conversation, as
well as club study and civic
meetings, help to build u,p the
of
or of those three national tradi
tions which are the backbone of
our Freedom—representative de
mocracy . . . civil and religious
prise.
