SSSSSSitHsitSf« t»5»85S»Siilt SeCiiEstSiissSl ( 3ortnifkt(y CU ^JbearS lA/omen 5 oCib me January zetn meeting of the Fortnightly Club was held at the home of Mrs. W. A. Parry. The only business discussed was the fund rais ing card party to be held on April 14th. Mrs. G. T. Thomas was appointed chair man of this event. A most interesting pro gram was given by Mrs. Ger ald Cope titled “Honeys, He ros and Heroines, Equal Pay For Equal Work’. Much has been said in jest about Womens’ Liberation. Much has been said in seri ousness that has come across to listeners as being ludicrous. Much has been said that is bitter. A century ago, Susan B. Anthony remarked, “Men their rights and nothing more. Women their rights and noth ing else.” Shirley Chisholm, black Congresswoman, says she finds it a much greater disadvantage to be female than to be black. Many facts were brought forth. Did you know, in North Carolina, if a wife is convict ed of the murder of her hus band, one half of her estate goes immediately to her hus bands estate but if a man is convicted of murdering his wife, he retains his estate un til his death? Did you know, in many states, a woman convicted of a crime receives a much harsher sentence than a man convicted for the same crime? Social Security laws are very unjust toward the wo man, especially in her later years. Also, check husbands retirement U la very possible, if he dies you will receive ab soiuteiy no Deneuis. The Office of Education states . . . women tend to do better than men on tests for admission to law and medical schools and yet only a token few are accepted. There are women in this country who are able and capable of fulfilling every type of job available but are denied the opportunity only because they are female. The jobs they do fill, even if equal to a mans, very often draws a lower rate of pay, on ly because they are female. The list seems endless, and today with so many women working, not only to help support a household, but be ing the sole support of her family, the laws are unjust. Professor Thomas I. Emer son, Yale Law School, says that “the subordinate posi tion of women has been en trenched in our laws from our earliest history.” Some of the legal inequities are obvious, some subtle . . but in whatever form, they per meate the legal structure. Therefore, equality for wo men can only be secured through constitutional amend ment. The Equal Rights Amend ment, H. J. Res. 208 will be before the Senate in Febru ary 1972. The amendment af fects your right to schooling, to a livelihood, to your fami ly inheritance, and even to your driving license. It is urged that everyone contact their representatives to sup port this bill, without change, to be passed. The time for change, is now. The next meeting will be held on February Bth at the home of Mrs. Frank King. JJW Witt Jl Sbr. Iffjoore t"Jueddau ear Dr. Allen M.
