talking of ways of making more
profits.
The idea of getting more profits by
paying the price of efficiency didn't
seem to appeal to them as way to
make money. At least Miss Adams
suggestion didn't seem to make much
of an impression.
What interested the members
mostly were plans for abolishing the
making of clothes in penitentiaries.
They bemoaned the fact that this pre-
vented them accruing all the profits.
They were quite willing that con-
victs should busy themselves with
anything else, but they are going to
start a serious campaign to stop the
making of garments.

BETTER WAGES MEANS BETTER
WORK, SAYS JANE adams
Jane Adams of Hull House last
night told the National Association
of Garment Manufacturers, now
holding their semi-annuaI conven-
ton, that if they wanted better work
from their thousands of girl en-
ployes they would have to pay bet
ter wages.
But at the close of her speech there
was no one who stood up and in
dorsed her plea. Living wages would
make serious inroads into the profits
of the garment-making business.
cat the present moment women
are not doing as much of the hard
work Of the world as 200 years ago"
said Miss Adams. 81 have lived "a
years among workers in the clothing
trades, and l can tell you that as soon
as wages go up efficiency is increased.
with good wages you will get a
good type of girl worker. The trou-
BILE has been that parents of the girls
have felt that there is little chance
of the girls advancement and they
have not cared how often the girls
have shifted from one factory to an
other. A recent report in New York
showed large number of girls who
changed employment fifteen and
eighteen times in two years.
IF you can make parents under
stand that if a girl works for low
wages for a period and shows skill
she will be sure of good wages in the
future you will get good girls.
81 urge you to standardize wages
to large extent. If you establish a
reputation for teaching girls their
work and then paying a good wage
for the various lines of work, you will
cure many present ills.

you, for she likes to think of her
daughter working with the needle.

what happened to the child whose part she

Snow, who is very fond of her and whom
the child has come to refer to as Aunt
