THE WOMAN
WHO TOLL"
THOSE WHO WORK FOR PIN MO.
NEY ARE GIVEN A LECTURE.
Miss Priscilla Leonard Tells Some
Plain Facts About Women Who
Work In Harpers' Bazaar.

New York, Jan. 28.-The question of
woman's right to work for pin money
and the effect upon the labor market
of the employment of women are dis
cussed helpfully by Priscilla Leonard,
In Harper's Bazaar. In common with
a great many yomen and most men,
she depreciates the manner in which
women who have home and main
tenance guaranteed to them insist on
pushing themselves into the industrial
field for the sake Of a few extra luxur-
les their work will give them. She
shows how the influence of women on
wages is always to lower them, and she
quotes an English authority to the eff
feet that wages in any trade are sent
downward steadily in proporiont to the
number of women employed.
The deplorable state Of things comes
about, Miss Leonard concludes, be-
cause, while all men are united on in
sisting on a living wage, women have
no scruples about working for any
thing they can get. The woman bread
winner wants the living wage, too,
and left to herself she might get it.
But she has the women to compete
with who live in families where a
father or brother pay the rent and
provide the food. vSuch women do not
need a living wage. On the contrary,
they can afford to work for an exceed
ingly low wage, and yet get plenty of
spending money out of it,.
Because Of these pin money workers,
manufacturers offer what is practi-
cally a starvation wage. Men will not
accept it, no self-supporting woman
can live on it, the only class who will
take it is the class of supported and
protected girls who have created 1t.
The living wage is last to that special
Industry forever. The, pin money work
er has destroyed all other chances but
her own. driven men out of that branch
partially or entirely. and cheapened
her own labor: But she is quite salts
fled for her $3.50 buys all the feathers
she needs.
Miss Leonard cites the case Of the
shopgirl as one illustration Of the fatal
| influence OF the pin money worker, and
that Of the garment marks as another.
1n*large cities the shopgirl has driven
| out the male clerk and destroyed the
living wage; except9in Few first--cla:ss
houses. As: for#the girl who has to live

tion with the girl who lives at home,
and makes a small contribution to the
household expenses, and with the girl
who is supported and spends all her
money on clothes. It is this division
of purpose which takes the spirit out
OF them as a class.
1.-THE men formed united class They
had purpose in common. They worked
because they needed the money to live
The women had nothing in common.
but their physical inferiority of men,
The children of the factory were work
ing from necessity. The only industrial
unit complicating the problem was the
girls who worked without being obliged
to-tle girls who had all the money
they needed, but not all the money they
'G9WGnted. To them the question of wages
was not vital. They could afford to ac-
cept what the breadwinner found insult
ficient. They were better fed, better
equipped, than tn self-supporting hand
They were Independent about staying
away from the factory when they were
tired or i'll, and they alone determined
the reputation for irregularity in which
the breadwinners were included.'
Miss Leonard's conclusion is that I'M
til self-supporting women develop a
sense of sisterhood akin to that recog-
nized in and fostered by the trade I'M
ion among men, women will be an I'M
settling element in industry

been closed to her by the worker for
pin money.
In the garment workers line the stu
alton is quite as bad, or worse Miss
Leonard declares. What renders the
tremendous bargain in white sales"
possible is the fact that country girls,
with homes and food, make these gar
ments for wages so small that the city
sWeatshop is driven into yet fiercer
competition to hold any part Of the
trade at all. Every woman in a big city
who makes her living by sewing on
white goods is pushed down, relentless
ly and inevitably, to starvation wages.
The women who stitch incellar, in at
tics, Is hours a day, with only bread
and tea to keep soul and body together,
are paying for the country girls feather
or ribbon. They need a living wage;
she, makes it impossible for them to
get it.
That this holds in other trades be-
sides the two cited seems to be the opin-
ion Of the author of 1.-THE Woman Who
Toil'', who are quoted by Miss Leonard
as saying:
In the factory where I worked men
and women were employed for 10 hours
day. The women's highest wages
were lower than the mems lowest. Both
were working as hard as they possibly
could. Why was this? I can only re-
late the conclusions I drew from what I
saw myself. In the masculine category
1 met but one class of competitor-tha
breadwinner. In the feminine category
found a variety of classes-the bread
winner, the semi-brea dwinner, the wo-
man who works for luxuries. This in
evitably drags the wage level down.

EIGHT HOURS A DAY.

Eight hours a day is long enough
for any human being to labor, what,
ever may be his work. Not one
single sound reason can be urged
against the proposition. To those
who declare that no human being can
be deprived of the sacred right" to
labor long hours if he chooses, it is
sufficient to reply that society does,
ara for thousands of years has, re-
strained men in any way that is be-
lieved to be necessary for the general
welfare. No rights are absolute. No
human being can justly do what
pleases him if he Injuries others. So

AS an economic truism we assert
that the more the masses receive in
wages the more they are enabled to
consume and that it is the consuming
capacity Of the masses that makes
countries great and life worth living.
We assert that the organized working
classes of this country are better off
than they are in any other part Of the
world and that the middle classes,
merchants, employers and capitalists,
enjoy greater: prosperity and greater
wealth than in any other part of the
globe. This being practically true,
we ask why this persistent and ever
lasting opposition to our labor organ
izations.
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1904-01-30

We hold that, owing to improved
machinery and the modern means of
production in the industrial world
that it is a physical impossibility for
one standing alone to maintain pres
emit conditions in reference to wages
and hours of labor, to say nothing of
ones desire to improve them, and that
the only way to successfully do this
is to combine our interests in trade
unions, and unitedly, in an orderly,
mands for better wages and less hours
and more congenia1 surroundings
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1904-01-30

High wages and short hours mako
better conditions for all concerned.
We assert that in countries where wa
ges are high and the hours OF labor
shortest, art, science, education, liter
allure, general conditions and civiliza-
ton have reached the highest ebb and
just as confidently assert, that in
countries where wages are least and
hours Of labor longest, these condi-
tions are just the reverse. We need
simply to call attention to China and
kindred countries and the conditions
prevailing there and here for a verifi-
cation of this statement.

A RETROSPECT. i:
When Eugene Victor ,Debs came to.

When Eugene Victor .Debs came to
New York from Chicago, last year, as a
representative Of the American Railway
Union, then engaged in it's memorable
struggle, he made a speech In Cooper
Union, which T heard. T sat near spot
at which I had sat at another meeting
neld In the same place, thirty-four
years previously, which was addressed
by another speaker who had come to
New York from Chicago. The western
speaker who stood before me on that
platform IN August 1894 was to me a
reminder of the other western speaker
who had stood there in February, 1850.
Both men were tall and spare in figure;
the complexion Of each was rather
gaunt, that Of the earlier speaker much
more gaunt than that of the later:
both were of good and strong features;
there was something intense about the
facial expression Of each; both were
men of commanding and impressive
manners.
l recalled the somewhat peculiar and
shrfH voice Of the speaker of 1860; I
heard another voice In 1894 which re-
sembled 1t. As they spoke, it was
easy for New Yorker to discern that
they were both men of the west.
The man to whose speech listened
In Cooper Union in February of 1860
was Abraham Lincoln. Of Illinois-born
In Kentucky; the man who spoke from
the same platform within my hearing
last year was Eugene Victor Debs, of
lllinois-born in Indiana
1 recalled the appearance, the man
ner, the voice and the speech Of Lin
coin as Debs stood before me thirty
four years afterwards
1t seemed to me that both men were
1mbued with the same spirit. Both
seemed to me as men Of judgement,
reason, earnestness and power. Both
seemed to me as men of free, high, gen.
uine, generous manhood. + "took'' to
Lincoln in my early life, as took to
Debs third Of a century later.
In the speeches Of both weterners
there was cogent argument; there were
apt illustrations; there were especially
empathic passages; there were mo-
ments of lightning; there were touches
OF humor; and there were other quail
ties which produce conviction or i'm
pei to action. Each speaker was free
as the other from gross eloquence. !
confess that was as much impressed
with the closing words of Debs
speech as I was with those of Lincoln,
when he exclaimed: LET us have faith
that right makes right; and in that
faith, let us to the end dare to do our
duty, as we understand it,
AS Lincoln stands in my memory,
while looking far back, Debs stands in
it, as saw him in Cooper Union a year
ago.
Lincoln spoke for man; so spoke
Debs Lincoln spoke for right and pro-
gress; SO spoke Debs. Lincoln spoke
for the freedom of labor; so Debs. Lin
coin was the foe of human slavery; 50
Is Debs. "

PROTECTING THE BABIES.

In protecting the young children
from factory labor the unions are
earning the gratitude of the nation.
Child labor is very far reaching evil
for two reasons-it strikes at both
the physical and the intellectual de-
velopment of the American people.
There is no greater danger to any
country than a community Of ignor-
ant citizens Intelligence means
safety and progress. To see what the
lack Of it means reflect upon those
nations where the people are ignore
ant and degraded. That nation is a
world leader whose percentage of
intelligence and morality is greatest.
America can retain the best that
civilization has to give, and even lib
erty itself, only by protecting every
class Of her citizens from physical and
moral decay.
To permit children to labor in the
shops and factories means physical
degeneration, and the boys and girls
of the present are the fathers and
mothers Of the future. To stand long
hours behind counters, to sit all day
at machines, to work amidst the
poisonous fumes of factories, to be
loaded with responsibilities far be-
yond their years, checks the physical
development and prevents the natural
growth that alone can produce
healthy human beings.
Children belong in the home and
the school. TO send them to work at
an early age is crime against both
the child and society. Leave entirely
out Of the question the harm done
by permitting the father of q family
whom nature meant for the. bread
winner, to be displaced I'M the factory
by the child at the machine and still,
on grounds Of public policy and sound
morality. the nation owes debt of
gratitude to the unions for insisting
upon the abolition of child labor.
