Mrs. Pinchot Plans

Mrs. Gifford Pinchot, having drawn breath after the whirlwind campaign that made her husband Governor of Pennsylvania, went to Washington with a plan.

"Let the women of a state or other unit area take charge of prohibition enforcement," she urged President Harding. "Let them take charge from top to bottom, as an experiment, and see if women are not more zealous for enforcement than men."

President Harding thinks enough of the proposal to have it referred to the Prohibition Bureau, where it may have effect despite rough-and-ready opposition.

Mrs. Pinchot does not claim absolute honesty for all women, but she told the President she believed "there are available 1,000 to 50,000 women who are unbribable. And they are more prejudiced in favor of prohibition than men."
