Well our TO ALWAYS FRESH Conrad's EGGS Delivered Fresh Daily in Port Huron and St. Clair County Claudia Dreifus: 'Women's Liberation Begins At Home' By SUE STARK (Times Herald Reporter) can easily be defined in the United States as patriarchy in which 49 per cent of the population, men, control the other 51 per cent, Claudia Dreifus, prolific writer and spokeswoman for the women's liberation movement, told a small audience Tuesday night in the Clara E.

Brought to Port Huron by St. Clair County Community College Women's League in conjunction with its "'Women's Week You've Come a Long Way, Baby," the 26-year-old Dreifus, in point after point, tore down that assumption. "Economically," she said, "the situation is worse for women, not getting, and the gap is widening." CITING FIGURES from the Bureau of Labor Statistics Guide and Handbook which, she said, says it more cogently than all the arguments in the world, Dreifus pointed out that a male with an elementary education averages $3,488 per year while a female with that same educational background could expect $1,190, or a paltry third." A male with a high school education averages $6,576 whereas a female is listed at $2,368, she said. "And those women who believe education will put them on an equal economic level with their male counterparts," Dreifus went on, "is the really shocking news that a male college graduate averages $9,728 while the female valedictorian of his class can expect to earn less than half." Not even a doctorate degree can absolve a woman's crime of being a female according to Dreifus and the Bureau of La- Statistics. a $10.041 average yearly, a female with PhD would earn male expect $6,114 or slightly less than a male high school she said.

THIS WAS the beginning. Dreifus, an editor of New York's East Village Other," the country's oldest she said, care centers are regarded as something un-American in need to socialize with other children and mothers need to be freed from what, in excess, can become extremely she said. DREIFUS ALSO advocated TIMES HERALD Family Living and largest underground newspaper, and author of numerous articles on feminism and other current topics in such publications as the Nation, Penthouse, the Ladies Home Journal, Healist, and Cavalier, proceeded to outline other areas of discrimination against women and then outlined liberation demands. Giving priority to equal job and education opportunity for all women and commenting that black women were the poorest of the poor suffering under a double discrimination, she urged that all barriers to female economic progress be torn down. want an equal try at all kinds of jobs, not just the glamorous and prestigious but also the profitable," she maintained.

"Why can't we have a try at the unglamorous but independent job of taxi driving at $265 a week, for example, rather than serve as a surrogate wife-secretary for some businessman at $65 a week?" Dreifus asked. Calling for a massive national of free 24-hour centers, Dreifus network. said that this was a reality during World War II when women power was necessary and it was "positively patriotic (like buying to drop your children in the centers which were quickly and efficiently established.

Corbett's CUT -UPS Writing And Wronging It's fun to try writing stunts every once in a while. One of the hardest is to write your name, looking in a mirror, only. Another is to hold the paper under the table, and print your name on it. All kinds of things make invisible ink; lemon juice or milk both make good ink, and the writing is visible when the paper is heated.

"Besides the advantages of sharing fully and becoming freed from the often painful masculine he-man role, men will live longer if the ulcer and heart problem providing sole support is lightened." Telling the women to think, can do anything I Dreifus said that only if women consent to it will oppression continue. we want is to assert the full humanity of all the world's people," she concluded. IN HER SPEECH, "Liber- ation Now: What Are Militant Women Fighting For?" Claudia Dreifus also cited innumerable instances explaining why women are fighting. "Although the assumption that progress is inevitable may be true for some groups, it certainly isn't true for womenBesides the declared.

fact that female professionals make half as much as their male counterparts, they are seldom admitted to prestigious positions, Dreifus said. "We're decades behind Sweden, Denmark, Israel, and the Soviet she said, and offered the following example: In Russia, women pharmacists number 95 per women dentists, 83 per cent, and women doctors number 75 per cent, while in the United States they number two per cent, two per cent, and seven per cent, respectively. Dreifus explained that when women do get admitted to male strongholds they are made to feel totally unwelcome by their colleagues and professors. "They are asked degrading questions concerning the pill, the whenwhere of children, and other questions a male wouldn't dare be asked unless the asker wanted a slug in the mouth," she said. Laws, too, conspire to keep women in their place, which, the homeaid, "We all know is When a woman marries, she said, she loses her right to be considered a legal adult, "a little-known fact that does not appear in the marriage contract." Dreifus noted.

Once a woman assumes her husband's name, she needs permission to enter a hospital, have an abortion, and several other important functions of society, not to mention losing the right to her own name, which, Dreifus asserted, seems almost naturally symbolic of the whole loss of identity. Dreifus, who kept her own name when she married her psychologist husband five years ago, said she underwent intense hassles simply to keep the name she was born with, grew up with, and writes under. "The whole thing is ludicrous," she said, summing up the total plight of women. CAROL A. SIMPSON Simpson- Spanninga Mr.

"Every year," she said, "millions of women place their bodies under the hands of butchers. Ten thousand die, thousands are made sterile and sickmore "Perhaps if men could bear children, legislation would change Dreifus mused. "But existing laws have no sympathy for a woman's right to control her own body." Asserting that women's liberation begins at home, Dreifus called for a restructuring of the family. "Sharing the duties of house-cleaning and children, could reap the blessings men, also be free from carrying the burden of sole support for their families," she pointed out. WHEN QUESTIONED as to in Port Huron can do, Dreifus mentioned setting up consciousness-raising groups just to talk about common feelings and the ultimate political life of being a female.

She advised the younger girls in the audience to think carefully about marriage. "You won't be a failure at 20 if you don't marry the first guy that asks or, heaven forbid, a dare graduate college without marrying," she declared. "Your first and most primary task is to become a person. Marry when you feel like it, don't give in to pressures," she advised. Dreifus also deemed it wise to wait until later in life to have children and then to have only two.

"Besides being ecologically better," she laughed, "it will save you from going mad." "And, above all, never learn typing or stenography," she warned. "What you don't know, they can't exploit." She told the married women in the audience to share the domestic duties because real love demands sharing. Dreifus pointed out to the scattered males in the audience that women's liberation, contrary to popular belief, has bonuses ARDEN'S will close to women at 5 p.m. this Thursday.
