Locusts Forewarn a White Land Under Siege
In a 1945 Columbia Basin saga, Jack Carlson faces jail after a street clash with Uren Takahira amid rising Japanese citizenship power. Mary Hammond and lawyer Jenkins rally to defend him as a broader fear of racial displacement and national decline grips the community. The dramatic prison scene frames a prophetic link to the Exodus plague, with Jack contemplating loyalty, heritage, and a white‑supremacist nightmarish future.

Woman Held Liable for Alimony by State Laws
A Washington discussion notes that in states such as Ohio North Dakota South Dakota Massachusetts and New Hampshire a divorced wife can be held liable for alimony under certain conditions. The National Woman's Party argues that men may fund and women contribute in other ways. Mary Anderson of the labor department advocates economic credit for housewives. Mrs. Thomas G. Winter of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs supports broader recognition of women’s unpaid labor. The piece links alimony with the idea of women’s economic participation and the kitchen role.
