order to observe conditions under
which the women work and to learn
the sentiment among employers as to
the bill that passed the Legislature
and now awaiting the Governors ac-
ton, to regulate the hours Of employ
ment of women and provide for a wo-
man factory inspector. The Governor
visited the plant OF the American To-
bacco Company, the New Castle
Leather Company, the Joseph Hand
and Sons Company, Incorporated. silk
mills and the Delaware Hosiery Com
pany. At each place the Governor
was informed that the manufacturers
were opposed to the bill, the princi-
pal opposition being TO the provision
that would give a woman factory in
spector power to declare a piece Of
machinery dangerous and TO stop it's
operation by a woman employe. Cen
eral objection also was made to the
broad latitude Of the bill that would
enable a woman factory inspector or
her assistants 10 visit manufacturing
plants at practically any time, and
also to the section providing a penalty
upon manufacturer for permitting
female employee TO be upon the
premises beyond a specified hour.
Following his tour Of inspection the
Governor was waited upon by dele
cation representing the Board of
