wage board works was Illustrated last
night by Mrs. Glendower Evans at
meeting held under the auspices of
the Women's Trade Union League
and the Wage Farmers League at 10
w. Jackson street.
Mrs. Evans, who is member of
the Massachusetts Minimum Wage
Board, declared that a minimum
wage was necessary when trades
were unorganized and consequently
sweated and exploited, since unor-
ganized labor could not do collective
bargaining and had to sell its serv-
ices for any wage the employers
might offer.
'"To obtain higher wages in organ
lied trades, it ordinarily takes
strike" Mrs. Evans said, 'and that
is at a terrible price, as some of you
know. The minimum wage works be-
fore there is a strike and without the
awful cost of the strike to the worker
and the employer.
"Our wage board, after the law
went into effect last July, picked out
the most sweated trade where con-
ditions were VIGOROUSLY bad and
wages VIGOROUSLY low, the brush
making trade. The commission then
went to the employer. We demanded
that we be shown the payroll and the
employer dare not refuse as we were
instructed, by the state to examine
payrolls.
"The state takes the position that
the payroll is a public matter and not
a private interest The employer is
buying human life and the life he
buys is the life of young women who
will be the mothers of the future race
And the wages they are paid is a
matter of public import.
1--WE ten the employer we are go
ing to take him under state super
vision to the extent of organizing
wages in his trade. Come in your

point wage board for that industry,
an even number of people to repre-
sent the employers and an even num-
Der to represent the employees and
some pubic-spirited people that will
take part in settling what is mini
mum wage, the lowest page it is per-
Missile to pay.
Eve found out from the workers
the least money upon which they
could live and then we revised that
list and made our recommendation
And when that recommendation goes
into effect it will include every brush
manufacturer in Massachusetts.
Mrs. Evans insisted that the mini
mum wage would never become the
maximum wage. She pointed out the
fact that at the present time every
employer is paying minimum wage
of some kind, and that this will not
only raise the minimum wage but will
raise the maximum, in that just as
an employer now must pay more for
especially clever workers so he must
pay more then.
She also argued that it could not
possibly handicap the employer,
since it is an accepted fact that the
more workers are paid the better they
work. That the poorly-paid labor is
VIGOROUSLY the Indifferent labor.
She used the same argument to
illustrate that the cost of living would
not necessarily be raised by the rails
ing of the minimum wage, since the
increased activity of the workers, be-
cause of their increased wage, would
turn out a larger quantity Of work.
Responding to the query of man
as to why a minimum wage question
was never brought up for men, Mrs.
Evans declared that, according to the
constitution, such a la wwould not
cover men, but could be made to COW
er women. She also stated that ow-
ing to sentiment it was easier to get

far Not that the residents OF the street
have more old clothes to dispose OF

that they stand n better percentage OF

The plan Is to parade the centre OF

Offspring Of Survivors TO Be

Washington.-Over Europe of the fu.

scientists, will sweep the devastating
hand of physical blight. Children with
crippled forms, weak bodies and un-
balanced minds will fill the cradles OF
every nation now at war. offspring of
the men made unfit for parentage by
the rigors of the great conflict
DIR. Ales Hrdlicka, curator OF the Ma
ti0nal museum and noted anthropol
Ogist, is one of the savants who has
studied the effect of Europe's conflict
upon the children yet to be born. To
him the present war presents vastly
different aspect with regard to future
generations than any conflict has ever
presented before.
Since men of science first began to
study the effect OF wars upon the hu-
man races 1t has been admitted that
whenever the best physical examples
OF a nation went to war to be destroyed
the physical manhood of that nation
suffered. Then 1t was discovered that
for every man killed or fatally wound
ed four died OF disease. AS warfare
approached its present modern chnrac
ter the number Of killed aud wounded
in each engagement decreased. while
the number who died from natural
causes" increased. Army physicians
say that the percentage of mortality
from wounds In the present conflict Is
likely to be far less than 1t has been in
the wars of the past.
But the scientists-both medical men
and anthropoogists-a to that state

men killed In the war will not detrnct
