WOMEN WILLING To WORK
PROBLEM FOR JOHN BULL
work standing outside.

work standing outside.
''It is one thing for women to fill
the places Of men who have volunta-
rily enlisted" declared Miss MacAt-
thur, 'and another to allow ourselves
to be used as instruments to force
economic conscription on the men"
War service by women, she said,
should not be used to force men to 60
to the front. National conscription
would be preferable to an economic
conscription of this kind Those ac-
quainted with the union movement
knew that the men had never objected
to women as women, but what they did
object to was cheap labor. Unfortu-
nately in the past, owing to lack of
organization, women had taken mems
jobs at very much less than men would
take.
Speaking of the claim that for pa
triotic motives women ought to give
their help unconditionally to the gov
ernment, she said that in so doing the
women would not be assisting the
country, but helping profit-making in
terests, which were already shameless
ly exploiting the present national
emergency.
Male operators for night duty in the
telephone service, which is govern
ment owned, have become so few that
a special call has been made for wo-
men operators for the period of the
war. Heretofore, women have been
employed only on day duty.
The women who answer switches
are paid $3.50 week during their
training period, and six dollars when
trained, a week to consist of 48 hours
of work. Beds are provided, so that
by rotation each operator can obtain
two hours of sleep in the night.
Women are also fast replacing men
on the railway lines of England, in
minor capacities Following the in
novation of women baggage porters,
the Great Western railway has en-
gagged women ticket collectors and
punchers. They wear a neat, plain
dress with badge on the sleeve.

LONDON, April 3O.-Equal pay for
equal work, the training of inexperi-
enced women and the supervision of
labor conditions are the main prob
lens with which the government has
to deal in its scheme of providing
work for women.
The pay matter is serious in the
view of the trades unions, which fear
the employers will use the less-paid
women in order to GUST men, and at
the end of the war refuse to restore
men to their old positions. Suffra-
gists also champion the equal pay for
equal work demand, since they re-
gard less money for equal work as an
insult to their sex. Further compli-
cations are caused by women volun-
teering to work free, but it is suggest
ed their wages be paid and turned in
to a charity fund.
1t is estimated that 80 per cent. of
the women of the British Isles are en-
gagged at the present moment either
in voluntary work or in professional
or industrial work. The most recent
returns made to the Central Labor ex-
change show that $4,000 applications
for war work have been filed by wo-
men. Of this number, the women of
London contribute $4,000, the south
eastern district of England 2,028, York
shire 1900, Scotland 4,253, Wales 67O,
Ireland $50 and the rest come from
other parts of England.
That women volunteering for war
service work should join the unions
in order to maintain present condi-
tions was the advice from Sylvia
Pankhurst at a recent conference un-
der auspices of the Emergency Work
ers' National Committee. A resolu-
tion was passed asking mems unions
to admit women members. This also
recommended to the government that
all women registering for war service
should Immediately join unions; that
such memb ership should be condit-
ional to employment; that when doing
the same work as a man the women
should receive equal pay; that sweat
ing conditions must be avoided and a
living wage paid, that adequate train
ing with maintenance should be pro-
vided, and that, after the war, the
priority of employment should be CIV
en- to workmen whose places were TAX
en- by women, and new places provid-
ID for the women.
These resolutions represent the at
titude of the women suffragists, the
trades unionists and socialists repre-
sented at the conference, representing
sexes.

sided, described a visit to a large ar

HOW BAN ON ALCOHOL
AFFECTS ROYAL FAMILY

London, April 2S.-The banning
Of alcohol from the royal household
will fall rather lightly on King
George, who, according to court Of
ficials, is almost an abstainer even
in normal times. He has occasion
ally taken small glass Of claret
with his luncheon, but more often
he preferred aerated water. At din
ner, burgundy and champagne were
always served, but the king fire.
quently tasted neither one, and new
err INDUCED in more than a minute
quantity.
The queens taste in alcoholic bev-
erages Is as restricted as the kings,
while Princess Mary scarcely knows
the taste of wine. a.--..
Since the ban on alcoholic at court
was promulgated, the energies Of
the kitchen staff have been turned
to devising various palatable tenn
perance drinks. The usual parch-
ment "wine-list" is still made out
daily and laid on the kings table
in its customary silver frame, but
the list of available drinks is limited
to lemonade, ginger-beer, soda wa
ter, fruit cups, and the kings fav-
orite, barley water.
Although the royal wine cellars,
with their almost priceless store of
wines, are technically fastened up
for the duration of the war, they are
not really kept sealed, for periodical
entrances have to be made, as spe-
cial temperatures and humidities
must be maintained in various COM
partments, according to the char
acter of the wines stored there.
But it is fairly certain that not a
single bottle will be opened, nor any
tap of the countless great barrels
turned, until the king gives the
word. For the royal cellars are
managed i'm business-like fashion.
and every pint removed from shelf
or cask must be shown on the ledgers
For the present, all these ledgers
and stock-books are clasped on. their
shelves, and the bookkeepers and
wine-butler's assistants have been
assigned to other duties about the
palace. The king was most par
ticrlar to direct that no one en-
ployed in the wine cellars should be
dismissed as a result of his ban on
alcohol. Other posts were found, at
the same wages, for all those dis
placed, some in the kitchen depart
ment which provides lemonade and
barley water for the court.
The kings ban does not prevent
any member of the royal household
from purchasing and drinking alco-
holic liquors outside the palace, but
as a matter of fact, the majority of
the household stan have followed
the royal example of total abstinence
throughout the war.

clear that practically all the fea-
lures of those bad concerns all are
interested in driving out" are
'skillfully devised to hoodwink the
public for the special benefit of the
promoters, by the use of contracts
having upwards of twenty condi-
tions, in lieu of shares of stock gov
erned by bylaws" And that what
is said here, and what we have
learned the last two years regarding
the local, mutual, cooperating COM
panies like f.akeland's, shows the
latter's features to be only good, as
town builders, home makers, teach
ers of thrift and saving for time Of
need and for useful enterprises.
We feel greatly encouraged by
what is. already DONE, to believe
Lakeland will rally strongly and in
constantly increasing numbers to
the building up Of her great town
builder-Lakeland Savings-Loan Co.
And this, notwithstanding the fact
that paid-up stock subscribers thus
far are pitifully few. Still we are
assured that, as with all others ever
started, as soon as capitalists see our
methods of operation, and the good
we can do them, as we'll as those
needing to save, or needing homes,
they will be only too glad to invest
in this way that will help the COM
pany to make many loans and thus
show quickly its usefulness.

PRINTING THE IDEAL
NEWSPAPER

The late Col. Nelson, editor of the
Kansas City Star, was probably the
most powerful figure in journalism.

shall except anybody. He was an
editor on the job constantly. There
are other powerful editors. Bris-
bane does the bidding of Hearst. He
lacks character. Hearst is an owner.
though he is nominally an editor
also. Watterson is more journalist
than editor. He does not now, has
not for years and probably never
did intimately direct the activities
of his paper, though he is most
widely quoted. He is entertaining
and interesting always. But Col.
Nelson and the Kansas City Star
were one. The personality of the
man was in the paper, and they
were identified with every move
ment of consequence in the build
ing of that city and the develop
ment of the great West. Yesterday
the Reporter-Star printed Bishop
Mann's tribute to Col. Nelson, whose
friendship the Bishop had enjoyed
for a third of a century. And Bish-
op Mann tells us that Col. Nelson
once said to him that an editor
could never print his ideal news
paper. Coming from such source
this statement challenges notice.
Here was a man with almost un-
limited resources confessing that he
could not make the kind Of paper
that he would like to publish

parent to all who are engaged, in
