WOMEN'S INTERESTS
WOMEN FACING
FOUR PROBLEMS
OF LEGISLATION
Miss Harriet Berry Points I
Out North Carolina's Out
standing Needs As She
Has Seen Them
RECAST TAX SYSTEM
> Re-organize School Sys
tem, Promote Agricul
ture, and Protect Forests
Are Major Tasks
Raleigh. Sept. 8. ? For years
North Carolina's problem*, their
solution, and the future possibil
ities of the state have been dis
cussed by men. It Ik only within
recent years that women have be
gun to take an active part In pub
lic life.
From the standpoint of a wo
man who has been In public life
for the last 20 years, what are
North Carolina's most Important
problems of today? What are the
state's problems from the woman's
standpoint?
They are four in number, a c
corilljifc to one woman who has
spec* tho last 20 years In North
Carolina public life:
t, A recasting of our present
taxing system."
2. The reorganization of our
public school system.
3. Tho promotion of agricul
ture through the perfecting of or
ganizations In farm communities
for efficient marketing, reason
able financing, etc.
4. Adequate protection of the
existing forests and reforestation
of out-ovef areas and barren
lands.
Those are North Carolina's out
standing problems of today. In the
Judgment of Miss Harriet M Ber
ry. organizer of savings and loan
associations, editor of the Market
News, and secretary of the North
Carolina Cood Roads association.
Some of these problems "can
b. remedied with legislation,'
Miss Berry says; "others must be
worked out by already existing
I agencies working with the people
'hemselvos."
"The solution of our education
al and other prnbloniit" depend
upon the recasting of our tax svb
Msm. Miss Berry bellevcK. "There
| bould be a uniform state tax levy
Ion all property, real and personal,
^corporate mid consumers, for the
Support of a real public school
system. This will have to be done
before the country boys and girls,
coSsUtutlng from 60 to 70 pnr
cent of our people, ran have edu
cational opportunities commensu
rate with the city boys and girls."
Miss Berry does not favor an
additional tax on farm lands, but
a tax on certain luxuries such ha
tobacco products, cold drinks,
cosmetics, and other luxuries.
The reorganization of the pub
lic school should be such as to
make "uniform standards as re
gards teachers, books and equip
ment for the country as well as the
city children." This can come
about. Miss Berry believes, only

disers arc count ins extensively
on I ho return to popularity n(
the sweater this fall. Kngland
has already fallen Into line dur
ing the height of the shooting
seanon and the vogue for two
p!ece costumes lends itself special
ly to the sweater vogue. In most
Instances the new sweaters are
of fine weave and of the turle
neck or crew neck designs. Wild
patterns are noticeable absent.
I-'Ue Bag*
Whether of silk or of leather,
the smart handbags today are
sure to match or harmonize with
the costume with which thev hit
parried. The flat envelope types
prevail although threaten *d to a
1 certain extent by Hie pouch hags
of moire silk.
Masques on Pockets
Many people wonder where the
masque pocket, on the youthful
two piece frocks originated Well,
they ascended directly fre.n the
garters. The odd, distorted em
1 broideries, fashioned after a (Sreei;
masque, were flr*t used in min
iature on the g;?rter* and ihoro
seems no telling wlieic they will
halt.
Capew lU'iWHlblc
Perhaps a fair majority of the
I new evening capes are being so
constructed that they tre reversi
ble. In the formal evening wrap*
i the richer furs form one side and
! the most gorgeous of metal bro
cades, velvets and metal embroid

I other.

ment. Hat her t!iey ate being giv
en a new lease on life through the
aoditon of short flaring cuffs of

as the tax Astern is Improved.
"North Carolina's advantages
in soil, climate, and geographi
cal location should enable her to
become one of the largest factors
in the great eastern consuming
centers." Miss Berry believes. But
to accomplish this there must be
worked out "for each farm com
munity an agricultural program
which will put farming on a hnsi
ness-like and efficient basis."
Forest conservation and re
forestation will develop a tre
mendous sources of revenue In
the course of 25 or 30 years. Miss
i Berry says, but "there must he
a well defined and continuous pol
| icy of protection and reconst rttc
I tion."
