Miss Rainey state she cannot
at j understand why laws relating to
women and children should al
ways be linked together.
"They are two entirely separ
ate matters, just as mcch as are
laws relating to men and child
ren," she declared. "I favor the
best possible care of the sick and
injured war veterans, and a state
bonus for all Indiana soldiers of
the World war when economic
conditions permit."
Miss Rainey is a business wo
man and a student. She has been
connected with one of the oldest
law firms . in Indiana for more
than 25 years. Miss Rainey chose
to go even farther ahead and has
been studying law at nights for
the last four years. She said she
expects to graduate thfs year. She
