LOUIS MARGOLIS AND FAMILY 2706 LESLIE - 1' Extend to All Their Friends Best Wishes for a Happy and Prosperous New Year Women in the News BY MARTHA NEUMARK bPEAKING LADY She may be a grandmother, but she still has an extraordinary power to move men by her elo- quence. Mrs. Archibald Silverman of Providence, R. I., has been a familiar figuure on the American scene for some three decades now. If there are towns in the United States where she has not spoken they are probably not recorded by Rand-McNally. But she is now in the midst of new triumphs as a speaker. Within the past few weeks she has done what no other American woman has ever done in South America: she ad- dressed in Yiddish a great crowd of 16,000 people and was cheered to the skies when she was through. Early this spring she visited a number of South American coun- tries and was urged to return by the leaders who were weary of the aloofness or the coldness of some of the American men who had been there. In August Mrs. Silverman was again in Rio de Janeiro. The laws of Brazil, how- ever, do not permit the use of foreign languages in pulic meet- ings. She speaks English as per- haps no other American Jewess does. Her Yiddish is just as stir- ring. But although she is learn- ing Spanish rapidly, it is not good enough for the platform yet. The only way in which her com- panion, Dr. Nahum Goldmann, could speak in Rio was at a religious service, addressing a large audience in Yiddish. But since the services were Orthodox, Mrs. Silverman could not par- ticipate. But this was more than made up in the clays that followed when she had to speak to smaller groups at the rate of three a day. Then, on Aug. 10, in beauti- ful Luna Park in Buenos Aires, came a memorable occasion. The Argentinian authorities were per- suaded to relax their rule. Mrs. Silverman addressed the audience of 16,000 in Yiddish. Two weeks later another exception was made, and for a half hour she spoke on one of the principal Brazilian radio stations—in Yiddish! How impressed South American Jewry is with this vibrant ener- getic, effective Jewish personality from the United States was illus- trated in Argentina when a He- brew class attended by boys and girls in Flores, ill suburb of Buenos Aires, was named for Mrs Silverman. Tokens of her stimulating presence may now be found from Panama to Palestine. FANNIE HURST'S OWN STORY, Fannie Hurst, one of America's great feminists as well as novel- ists, is gradually beginning to dictate her autobiography. It should be one of the most excit- ing documents since Isadora Dun- can told her story. Miss Hurst has, in spite of :laving written numerous novels and short stories, nevertheless managed to be an active figure in the civic scene. A close friend of Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, she can always be counted upon to promote sortif public cause or to interpret an important Govenmrental policy. As the woman who Dive a ro- mantic halo to five-and-ten cent store girls and who has always invested her feminine characters with both dignity and self- sufficiency, it is not unexpected that Miss Hurst should now be advocating that the army should use women. She thinks they would make bettetr cooks than the boys, certainly better chamber- maids and perhaps even better truck drivers. In this way, every man could be released for actual front-line service, she points out. Her autobiography starting with her birth in Hamilton, 0., in the month of October, 1889, as the only child of wealthy St. Louis parents—is not unusual in the early stages. She obtained a B. A. in 1909 from Washington University, whose reports indi- cate that athletics and dramatics were as much her forte as writ- ing. Of all things, Miss Hurst started her career as 'a school- teacher. But it wasn't long before she was flooding the publishers of America. She always encour- ages other young writers by pointing out that it was not until the editor had rejected 35 other short stories that the Saturday Eening. Post finally accepted her first. Readers of her various novels will recognize her own life experience in . such occupations as waitress, salesgirl and even actress. In those days, too, she helped in the fight to get the vote for women. Although she was married in 1914 to musician Jacques Danielson, even most of her friends didn't know about it until five years later. She be- lieved in keeping her own iden- tity. With this skeletal frame- work, which becomes even more impressive in the last two dec- ades, she could provide much to stimulate and to inform if she would speak her mind—as she can. Wm.
