Who decided a working day for wages consists of eight hours. A mothers working day with no wages whatsoever, consists of working from 14 to 16 hours a day raising her family. She is on call 24 hours each day. I am not a member of the Womens Liberation Society, nor do 1 believe in equal rights for men and women. I do believe in equality. A woman has just as many good qualities as a man has. One sex is not superior to the other. Their good qualities do not have to be in the same fields of action. As a rule, men are physically stronger than women. Women are more tender hearted, more lovable and more forgiving. I also believe that men are responsible for the inferior position in which women are placed in formulating the laws and rules liich govern the many nations in the world today. Even in the last SO years, had women been given an equal opportunity in the United Nations, to help formulate programs and regulate trade .agreements between the nations, the world would be a much more peaceful and beautiful world than it is today. I agree that women are not as qualified as men in political science. That too is the fault of men, who would not provide universities in which there was Because man from the beginning has used his superior strength to dominate women, our whole political and educational systems have been geared to the progress and betterment of men. We are celebrating the Bicentennial of our great Nation founded on the Declaration of Independence, written by that great advocate of freedom, Thomas Jefferson. That precious document declares "all men are treated equal." Thomas Jefferson actually believed "all men." not all women. He did not believe women should be educated beyond the requirements to make them good housekeepers. good wives and. mothers. Women had no place in nor in taking care of the finances of the family, jet alone the nation. This was the belief of most of our Founding Fathers. The Declaration of Independence was signed by 56 men, but not one woman. For centuries after the first recorded history of man, women were considered as the property of man just as his cattle or shefcp, or any other animal. Man as head of the household had as many wives and concubines as he pleased. When he got tired of a certain wife, he discarded her as much as he did his old clothes. When the first women's clubs were organized in the Unit-- , ed States, men had passed laws that forbade women to speak in public meetings. In order to obtain a charter for a womens club, the husband had to present the charter to the City Fathers.

It is called the spice island where. nutmeg, mace, 'cloves and cinnamon trees grew in profusion. Cocot beans were seen drying it the sun. We visited a banant plantation and watched how they got bananas ready for shipment. . The French Island of Guadeloupe with its breathtaking scenery, old world plantations and the delightful e French port of where we shoped for French parfumes, was very interesting. Then on to the Virgin Islands where we first stopped at St. Thomas, the world's most charming duty free port. jThe U.S. owns the Virgin Island. Many of our group went on a sea safari to Honeymoon Beach where they went snorkelling to explore the colorful underwater world of coral and tropical fish. We took sail boats to St. Johns Island and saw Laurence Rockefellers plush resort. We viewed the Caribbean sea from one side of the island and the Atlantic Ocean from the other. Bluebeards castle was quaint. We visited many beautiful residential areas of the wealthy. We arrived back. to San Juan and disembarked. After our huge circle in the Caribbean Sea, our plane' stopped in Miami, Fla., then on to Salt Lake City. The weather was warm and beautiful all the time we were gone, but we left in a storm and arrived back in another snow storm. From all reports the group enjoyed the trip very much and felt' 'that' they had had a" marvelous vacation. Arrangements were made through Ilene Cooper, Deseret Traveler representative in our area.
