Ten Commandments not for women, said 1920s politician

The man's a prominent American political figure.

I've been burrowing into newspaper archives researching a topic I hope to write about soon. On one page, I was surprised to see the headline,

Col. Harvey Says Decalogue Does Not Apply to Women

New Ten Commandments Should be Devised to Save Their Souls, He Tells Author's Club in London

He gave this talk in October, 1922, since which I am not aware of a second set of commandments created for women. Any women reading this might take that in mind while planning out their weekend.

Mr. Harvey was in London because it was part of his job to be there. He was the Ambassador to the Court of St. James, the formal title of ambassadors to Great Britain. The Ambassador was worried that women might just discover that they are not actually forbidden from doing certain things.
