LABOR IN THE NETHERLANDS.

Consul.General Soren Listoe, of
Rotterdam, furnishes the following re-
view of the new law governing labor
contracts in the Netherlands which
went into effect OH February 1, 1909:
In the civil code Of the. Netherlands
only three paragraphs referred to 1.-The
hiring of servants and workingmen,"
but as that law was enacted prior
to the year 1888 1t is not surprising
that its stipulations were considered
too one-sided under the present condi-
tions of labor and living; hence new
sanction Of both chambers Of the state
general
The contract of agreement between
employer and employe or laborer may
be made verbally as we'll as In writ
ing; in the latter case all costs and
charges in connection Herewith are
for account of the work-giver (employ-
err, who Is supposed to be financially
the stronger party.
All contracts, and even receipts for
wages. are exempted from stamp
tax" If agreement to deviate from
the requirements of the law should be
made, which is in some instances al
lowed. 1t is essential that a written
contract be made.
A married woman. who Is still con-
sidered as minor in Dutch judica-
ture. is specially permitted to accept
a position, sign the labor contract,
and collect the wages, without the
consent Of the husband; but when she
contracts, as an employer, for the SER
vices of household servants, she is
supposed to have first obtained the re-
quired permission Of her husband
Thus far the Dutch husband has had
the sole right to dispose of the in
come OF his wife, unless 1t was dis
tinctly agreed by contract made be-
fore the marriage that such should
not be the case. but this general rule
has, by the new law, been revoked as
far as the income of the wife as Ia
borer" is concerned, In order to pre-
vent the husband from lawfully claim
ing the earnings of his wife and spend
Ing them In any manner he sees flt.
this law provides that the married
woman is entitled to "the disposal.
in the interest OF the household" Of
all moneys which she earns or which
is due to her under an existing labor
contract
A minor can only contract for labor
with the permission of his father or
guardian, which permission Is con.
sidered as given when the lawful rep
resentative has not raised any objec-
ton within four weeks after the con-
tract has gone into effect
