At the Liberty Theatre, Sunday, October 26 WOMEN AND THE WAR Am '? By MRS. HENRY P. DAVISON 1 Treasurer War Work Council National Bourd Y. W. C. A. Within six months after the Unlteu States entered the war, the Y. W. C. A. War Work Council had established girls clubs near more than forty of the canton meats. barracks. and navy yards A trained recrea tion leader was placed in charge o f each club. These workers supplement the efforts of th; lo cal Associations, if those already exist. Where the idea Is new the workers form club centers, or ganize the girls, and arouse them BBBBS?9BflB8Kr ' Mrs. Davison to a sense of their responsibility in this time of great excitement and con Ira ion. No scolding of girls for unwise ae liana and no solemn finger-shaking oc- ar.-, in the clubs. Instead of dwelling n what not to do, these wise leaders rge real patriotism. All sorts of pro. jecta are suggested that are more In twestlnst than the dubious and danger a pleasures which appeal to the ig ataraiit and the thoughtless. At parties, for instance, these wily chaper oaen, whom no one ever think of as slrvisors, arrange that the.e shall t .!): he twice a; many soldiers aj girls. "TwoalBS" is utterly Impossible where there are not enough girls to IP around' Club laflderi do not attempt to ban isaj the gallant soldier entirely fiom (be girls' world! they wish only to taring him down from glorified heights vl glamour to take his place as an erylay hero, subject to the same scrutiny as otliei men. instruction and relief work are not akeglec-ted. Anion-; the activities of fered are dressmaking, cooking, I. nit imr, French, athletics, dancing, sing img. Ited Cioss work, Belgian relief, bad work for the fatherles-i children -1 France. Th wW Id contains a nuin--tcr of things he., ides soldiers for a girl's imagination to dwell upon. Hundreds of clubs for school and business girls all over the country are -offering pleaaantei recreation than he gaily lighted streets and the sha tlewy parks. "I have a place now to ipaad my evenings." said a telephone girl In Waukegiin, Illinois, to the club leader. I was so lonely before you came." Krncrgencv housing for employed Kills Is lonely connected witli the more general welfare work, ' i tad. on the basis of Immi 1 have been cboaen lion groundi to show employers ho it should be I These centers are near the canton ments. The Bureau of Social Morality is an important feature of the War Work Council's program under the present abnormal conditions. That Ignorance Is no shield to a girl is well known to Its members. Instead, it Is her gravest peril. Any situation shrouded In mys tery is dangerous. Women can deal only with what they understand. A true social morality mini he b.illt on a foundation of knowledge, and be Inspired by huh aims. Fourteen WOOJOO phyalciarik art talking to groups of parents, school girls, and industrial women. Thee lecturers bend their best efforts to spreading infarmatlon on social ideals. Colored women at this time must meet all the problems confronting white women. Their situation Is tin ther complicate-1 by industrial and social conditions. Special cl ih -. are in . formed among colored girls In the neighborhood of cantonments. Woikers are being placed in industrial ci nters like Louisville, Kentucky, and Hopewell, Virginia. Immigrant men who formerly la bored In mines, on farms, and In fac tories, and now serve In our army are, themselves, In need of assistance. Foreign men marry young and many, even of the young ones, have large families dependent upon them. Ho cause of these helpless families, the War Wo. k OoUAOfl has tnci lators who go into the camps. The activities of tho War Work Council could not bo conflnnl to our own country. Our American nur-ies in France ne-d the Y. W. C. A. i-.oclal workers. Kven the most self reliant women must have help at the fiout where women's welluro Is a matter of minor iinpoitance. A central club lu Paris flVOt hard-worked, courageous nurses a homo In a strange lund. Branch clubs at all of the base hospi tals provide relaxation and recreation for hours off.

Not only would the state consolidation comm'tisinu. ap pointed by Oovernor Wlthycombe, and which recently made public Its report, make the office of Secretary of State appointive by the governor, but It would also deprive the voters of the privilege of electing a State Treas urer, a Superintendent of public In struction and an Attorney-General. The only offlcee which would be left elective are thoee ot Oovernor and State Auditor, a new office to be cre ated. All others would be made ap pointive. Before these changes could be mad, it Is pointed out, the constitution would have to be amended. But the commission finds that the state con stitution Is very much antiquated and recommends that, in tho near future, a constitutional convention should be called "In order that a systematic over hauling of tho frumework of tho state government may be made." When all tho elective offices are abolished and tho governor Is given power to fill them by appointment, thu commission also recommends that he should have authority to remove any official at his pleasure without catiBt). This recommendation Is mado, the commission point.! out, so that the governor might have political control at all times. "Heads of the principal state ad ministrative departments and possibly one chief deputy in each department," says the report, "should be subject to political control through removal nt any time without cause, In nccordanco with Oregon laws of 1915, Chapter 334." The chief reason asslgnod for want lug to make all the state offices ap point! vo is given as follews: "It would relieve the votor of a bur den which he is not qualified to bear." Those who give the least thought to the commission's rocommendatlons also see where, If thoy were adopted, i they would place lu the hands of the governor power to build the prettleat political machine that was ever seen In this state, which In the pant has had experience with some rather fancy political machines. Other far reaching effects might be expected to follow If nil state officials were made answerable to the governor UHtO d of to the people. The expert enoa of Attorney (ieneral Itrown In connection with the noted Utah water power case Is cited in an illustration That case had boon carried on appeal to the rutted States supreme court. The issue was clearly one in which the great water power Interests were on one side und the rights Of the public on the other. Governor Wlthycombe ordered At torney General Brown to Intervene In behalf of the water power Interests. The attorney general did not approve throwing th against tho rights of the public and in favor of a great water power mon opoly. But he had been ordered to In tervene by the governor. So what did he do? He merely filed In the United States supreme court the governor's letter to him directing him to Inter vene. Hi filed no brief or petition of his own writing, and the court and tho public know the attorney general watt not in sympathy with the gover nor's stand. Hut if the attorney general, as the governor's consolidation commission propoaea, had been an appointive crea ture of tho governor hit would have been compelled to resort to any tactics he governor requested to aid the water power m-jtiopoly and defeat tho interests of tho public lu the water powers of the state. The governor and attorney general also wi re on opposite sides when the OVarnor stood with those who were rying to block the government In its i'lghl to recover tho Oregon & Culifor nla railroad grant lands The attorney general stood on tho side of the peo ple und for recovering the millions of acres which the railroad company had held for years in violation of its cov enant With the government. But If ho had been an appointive creature of the governor, subject to removal at tho pleasure of the chief executive without cause or for political reasons, he could not bo an Indapend out legal adviser of the state. Similar Influence from a chief exec utive, who would stoop to use the power of his office for political pur poses or to serve privute Interests. would also have a baleful effect upon other important state orrielals. If the attorney general had been subject to control by the governor, tho I'aclfic Livestock Company land fraud case, in which 20,UuO acres uro In volved, would undoubtedly huve been ordered dismissed long ago. As it is the attorney general feels confident that he will recover a large body of land which will enrich the state com inoii school fund. While the attorney general was fighting for an appropriation to pay the expenses of the litigation and was doing ail ho could to keep the case from being squelched, the governor was seeking to have the case dis missed. Thu governor suught to have the state laud board order the case llsmlssed. Tho board declined to take lotion. He then ssld he would order it dismissed if Secretary of State tJJ ott would Join v.-it li State Treasurer Kay in giving a vote of approval. Ol :ott refused, and the case was not Jilinlssed. But If the attorney general had been tn appointee of the governor he would liave been in no position to make a right to recover for the benefit of tho (cbool children of the state largo hold ngs of land which he has evidence to diow were obtained from tho state brough fraud, when the clib-r execu :lvo favored the company holding tint ami.
