FEARS FOR RACE OF WOMEN.
Professor Ross Sees Feminine Graces
Eliminated by Trade Influences.


Unless factory and shop conditions
are changed materially, America Is
threatened with the appearance OF
race OF women like those of the peas
ant class of Russia, according to Pro-
lessor Edward A. Ross, of the Uni
yersity OF Wisconsin. Professor Ross
made this assertion during an address
before public meeting held under
the auspices of the Illinois Federation
OF Women's Clubs at Hull House.
After quoting from statistics to
show that one-third Of the women of
the country between the ages Of
fifteen and twenty-five are engaged in
Industrial occupations, Professor Ross
said:
with many of them it is only tenn
porary, but do you realize that for
the few years they are at the loom or
in the shop the conditions surround
ing them are not shared or Influenced
by anybody who has any interest in
them?
