Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The New American Woman It is interesting to note that State Controller John S. Chambers is "leading California club women in a State campaign to culminate in an assault upon the Legislature a year and a half hence at the State Capitol!" How perfectly splendid all this is, indeed! It is high time that men admit in an open forum composed of women, the rank injustice of a law which allows the husband, upon the death of the wife, to take without administration all the community property, and forbids the wife upon the death of her husband to take her moiety at all, except through the grace of the Probate Court. Mr. Chambers will tell us what every woman is supposed to know by this time, that the half of the community property allotted to a widow she must accept subject to the inheritance tax. Gloriously chivalrous! A State officer reading to women divers and many sections of our Civil Code concerning themselves and their property, which have been the law of California since 1849! Wake up. young ladies! Join the Woman´s Law Class or provide yourselves with a Civil Code, which contains the substantive law of our State, and learn a few things of which you should be ashamed to be ignorant. Free legal advice is apt to be unreliable. All rules of law are important and we must so regard them; whether good or bad we must abide by them until repealed or amended. But. it is not now and never was very difficult to convince the gallant men of California of the wisdom and justice of enacting laws favorable to women, or repealing those which inveigh against them. Everybody knows that the law regulating community property in California is absolutely wrong and that it should be amended. Now that women are law makers as well as voters, but little time will elapse before husband and wife shall share alike upon the death of either, and that too without the interposition of the Probate Court. "Woman will not do the thing she ought. But she must prate about it, talk about it. Prove she can - in words!" The Inevitable I may not overcome the inevitable, but O! it is mine to see that the inevitable does not overcome me. Whate´er befall, spare me that supreme calamity. - let no after-bitterness settle down with me. Misfortune is not mine until that hour. I will not pray that each day be a perfect day. but I will pray that each time I shall build both strong and true, but, if imperfect, I will pray for impulse that I may build anew. - From Muriel Strode´s "My Little Book of Prayer." Common Cause The name. The New American Woman, includes all women in the United States; those who are here from foreign lands, as well as those born within our domain. Every woman is sister to all women. To deny this would be to repudiate the brotherhood of man. And a host of other women equally notable whom we could mention. Not all of the brilliant women of our day live east of the Rocky Mountains! Verb. Bachelors or Married? Will Dr. A. J. Scott, chairman Entertainment Committee of the Chamber of Commerce for 1915, please reveal in his forthcoming brochure. "Notables I Have Met," the legal social status of said notables? We assume that almost all of them are or were bachelors or widowers when they passed through Los Angeles. And yet. in an interview published in the Los Angeles Times a few days since Dr. Scott assured us that "they were all men worth while." etc. Of course it follows that all were married, or had been. The latest aria executed by Los Angeles´ very own grand opera tenor star is written in B sharp. About th
