WASIIINP.TOV. Jan. 22. Anti¬ quated lit\vh concerning women now on Virginia statute hooks are j»cored in a report tallied today by tli*» legal research department of tho National Woman's Party. This report on Virginia laws has been compiled by Mrs. Hurnita Shel- ton Matthews, of the Mississippi and Patriot of Colninlila bar. and legal research secretary of tho Woman's Party. It In based upon a detailed analysis of the 1919 edlflon of the Virginia Pride and upon the acts of the Virginia Code nnd upon the acts of tin' VirKinla Assembly, through the 1S20 ji'Kiilar session. It also in¬ cludes a study of court decisions hearing upon tho Interpretation o? the law. "Vlrgl nift discriminates against her 'women in many respects." said Mrs. Matthews today. "There are now on VirKinla statute books medieval laws, relics of a by-gone ngc and contrary In spirit to twentieth century thought, as well us to tho tradition of liberty and equality for which . Virginia stands." To repeal such laws, tho Woman's Party urges tho passage by tho Vir¬ ginia legislature of an "equal rights" bill, placing women upon an equality with men boforo tho law. A sum¬ mary of Mrs. Matthews' report fol¬ lows: In Virginia, mothers nro not the equal guardians of their own chil¬ dren. Tho old conupon law doctrine , of tho father's stipremo right to the child still prevails In Virginia today. One court stated it In theso words: "Our law fully recognizes the pri¬ mary right of tho father to tho cus¬ tody of tho child." Tho father has tho paramount right to tho child's custody, control, sorvlces and earn¬ ings. He may decide the details of Its upbringing, Its religion, educa¬ tion, nnd work, both lnsldo and out¬ side the homo. If the child Is in¬ jured, tlie father receives nil (he damages. If a daughter is seduced, the father receives tho damages. The relation between father and daugh¬ ter in that case Is conslflerod by tho law the same as that botween mas¬ ter and servant. Insplto of tho fact that llie mother has no control ovor Jicr children's services or earnings <ibe, as well as tho father, Is orlm inally llablo If they are neglected and may bo fined or Imprisoned, The 1916 legislature passed an qual guardianship law, but when lie Virginia Code was revised In 919.by three men lawyers.this qual guardianship law was revised ut of existence. The legislature sanctioned this step backward by adopting the Code. Property laws discriminate against women. The property of both hus- and and wife is presumed by the law to belong to the husband alone. The wife's property may bo attached for her husband's debts, unless she an prove that it was actually bought out of her own funds, and the pre¬ sumption is against her in attempt- nir to prove this. I'nder tho inheritance laws main relatives are preferred to female, that is, a father to a mother, grand¬ father to a grandmother, and so on * * without end. passing to the nearest lineal male ancestors, and for want of them to the nearest female ancestors. Women are also excluded to a great extent from tho administration of estates. Moreover, if a woman administrator or execu¬ tor marries, her powers may be re¬ voked. Marriage has no effect upon a man's powers as executor or ad¬ ministrator. Tho old common law in regard to dower and curtesy prevails In Vir¬ ginia. That is, while a husband is entitled to life Interest In all his wife's real estate after her death, the wife Is entitled to lifo interest in only oqe-thlrd of her deceased hus¬ band's real property. The busband is by Virginia law, the hAfc^cf "to family and entitled to the ''oTfMlence and respect" of his Wlfo and family. He has the sola right to choose tho domicile of the family, for residence, business and voting purposes. A married woman lias no voting residence of her own. She must vote in that established by her husband. If his residence is In another State, to which she is unable to go to vote, she is disenfranchised. Women are not permitted to serve on Juries In Virginia. Women do not have ertunl privi¬ leges at the University of Virginia, supported out of public funds paid by women as well as men. Hoys of lfi are admitted to the university, while (jlrls must he 20 years old to enter. Women are subjected'to much higher ontranco requirements than gr# men, .

SCORES VIRGINIA ANTIQUATEDSTATUTES CONCERNING WOMEN

Legal Research Department of National Woman's PartyIssues Report Asserting Females of Old DominionAre Discriminated Against in Many Respects.

WASIIINP.TOV. Jan. 22.Anti¬quated lit\vh concerning women nowon Virginia statute hooks arej»cored in a report tallied today bytli*» legal research department of thoNational Woman's Party.This report on Virginia laws has

been compiled by Mrs. Hurnita Shel-ton Matthews, of the Mississippi andPatriot of Colninlila bar. and legalresearch secretary of tho Woman'sParty. It In based upon a detailedanalysis of the 1919 edlflon of theVirginia Pride and upon the acts ofthe Virginia Code nnd upon the actsof tin' VirKinla Assembly, throughthe 1S20 ji'Kiilar session. It also in¬cludes a study of court decisionshearing upon tho Interpretation o?the law.

"Vlrgl nift discriminates against her'women in many respects." said Mrs.Matthews today. "There are now onVirKinla statute books medieval laws,relics of a by-gone ngc and contraryIn spirit to twentieth centurythought, as well us to tho traditionof liberty and equality for which

.Virginia stands."To repeal such laws, tho Woman's

Party urges tho passage by tho Vir¬ginia legislature of an "equal rights"bill, placing women upon an equalitywith men boforo tho law. A sum¬mary of Mrs. Matthews' report fol¬lows:

In Virginia, mothers nro not theequal guardians of their own chil¬dren. Tho old conupon law doctrine

, of tho father's stipremo right to thechild still prevails In Virginia today.One court stated it In theso words:"Our law fully recognizes the pri¬mary right of tho father to tho cus¬tody of tho child." Tho father hastho paramount right to tho child'scustody, control, sorvlces and earn¬ings. He may decide the details ofIts upbringing, Its religion, educa¬tion, nnd work, both lnsldo and out¬side the homo. If the child Is in¬jured, tlie father receives nil (hedamages. If a daughter is seduced,the father receives tho damages. Therelation between father and daugh¬ter in that case Is conslflerod by tholaw the same as that botween mas¬ter and servant. Insplto of tho factthat llie mother has no control ovorJicr children's services or earnings<ibe, as well as tho father, Is orlminally llablo If they are neglectedand may bo fined or Imprisoned,

The 1916 legislature passed anqual guardianship law, but whenlie Virginia Code was revised In919.by three men lawyers.thisqual guardianship law was revisedut of existence. The legislature

sanctioned this step backward byadopting the Code.Property laws discriminate against

women. The property of both hus-and and wife is presumed by the

law to belong to the husband alone.The wife's property may bo attachedfor her husband's debts, unless shean prove that it was actually boughtout of her own funds, and the pre¬sumption is against her in attempt-nir to prove this.I'nder tho inheritance laws main

relatives are preferred to female,that is, a father to a mother, grand¬father to a grandmother, and so on

* * without end. passing to thenearest lineal male ancestors, andfor want of them to the nearestfemale ancestors. Women are alsoexcluded to a great extent from thoadministration of estates. Moreover,if a woman administrator or execu¬tor marries, her powers may be re¬voked. Marriage has no effect upona man's powers as executor or ad¬ministrator.Tho old common law in regard to

dower and curtesy prevails In Vir¬ginia. That is, while a husband isentitled to life Interest In all hiswife's real estate after her death,the wife Is entitled to lifo interest inonly oqe-thlrd of her deceased hus¬band's real property.The busband is by Virginia law,the hAfc^cf "to family and entitled to

the ''oTfMlence and respect" of hisWlfo and family. He has the solaright to choose tho domicile of thefamily, for residence, business andvoting purposes. A married womanlias no voting residence of her own.She must vote in that established byher husband. If his residence is Inanother State, to which she is unableto go to vote, she is disenfranchised.Women are not permitted to serve

on Juries In Virginia.Women do not have ertunl privi¬

leges at the University of Virginia,supported out of public funds paidby women as well as men. Hoysof lfi are admitted to the university,while (jlrls must he 20 years old toenter. Women are subjected'to muchhigher ontranco requirements thangr# men, .
