The special week opened Sunday and will continue through September 30. President Eisenhower issued a message from the White House saying 4Sincc 1919 the National Federation of Business and Pro fessional Women's clubs has oc cupied a position of leadership, advancing the interests and sta tus of women in all types of en deavor. Through individual pro jects the organization has benc fited communities throughout the nation; it has supported ef forts to promote international understanding and a durable peace." Adiai Stevenson, the presi dent's opponent in the coming general election, also praised women of the federation, saying ' I do not need to point Out to you the importance that women have attained, and rightly so, in fields that were formerly con sidered to be the sole domain of men. And I think it is both prop er and fitting to observe that this so-called 'invasion' is at least partly the result of the pio neering efforts of the first members of your organization, and the competence and reliab ility of those who followed." Other national leaders who have issued statements of praise include Senator Irving M. Ives, who last March introduced a Reduce Write TODAY for FREE illustrated FOLDER.

Words of praise came also from Ivy Baker Priest, treasurer of the United States, and Am bassador Clare Booth Luce who wrote from Italy that "It is not the least of your achievements that women throughout the world find a guide, a spur and an inspiration in the position achieved by the American wom an." James P. Mitchell, Secretary of Labor for the United States, said "One of the specific objec tives which the Department of Labor shares with your mem- i bership is extension of women's opportunities for employment and advancement. In the more than three decades since your national organization was found ed, women workers have found ever-expanding outlets for their skills. Progress, however, must continue and bring with it a growing recognition of the abil ities women workers posses.

In observance of the national week the Medford club named Mrs. Harriett Watson, a past pres ident, as "Beep of the Week" and a series of public appearanc es planned.

Anthropologist Says American Women Unhappy, Disgruntled By ROBERT MUSEL United Press Correspondent Battle, England (U.B The American woman used to fight for her man. Now she fights him, and usually wins. Dr. Eric J. Dingwall, a Brit ish anthropologist, has been cov ering this "war of the sexes" for 20 years, dashing to tie United States from time to time for eyewitness studies and re turning to Europe to preserve his objectivity. This week he published his analysis of the struggle so far. 'The American woman" is what the trade calls the controversial book. This means a lot of people will write Dr. Dingwall nasty letters. For Dr. Dingwall spared neith er sex in arriving at the con clusion that the American wom an is a developing matriarch who takes her dominance even into the bedroom, He describes her as: ". . . The most nervous, un happy, disgruntled woman that possibly one might find." Starting with records of the Puritans of the 1600s, Dr. Ding wall has examined 10,000 books, magazines, newspapers and diaries to fill out the picture given him personally by Ameri can women over the years. He thinks most American trou bles are due to contradictions. For example, purity is stressed in the home, but outside it the girl or boy is subjected to a tor rent of sex in films, television, radio, books, photographs and advertising. The Americans, he said, con stantly preach rugged individu alism. Yet they are a "standard ized type, wear standardized clothes, eat standardized foods, behave in a standardized way" and are suspicious of anyone Figure-Magic! m who doesn't conform. Before marriage, he says, the American girl plays the part of a romantic doll. But after mar riage, "when the dreams of youth have been shattered and the prince charming is 6cen without the halo," she becomes the dominating "mom" ruling both children and husband. The American man isn't a very good lover in any circumstances, says Dr. Dingwall, and this un natural dominance by the female reduces many of them to impotence. Oregon Regent Is Guest of DAR Mrs. Roy D. Armstrong, Port land, state regent of the' Oregon society. Daughters of the Amer ican Revolution, made her of ficial visit to Crater Lake chapt er last Saturday. She was honor ed at a luncheon at Tally Ho restaurant, Talent.
