EQUAL PAY FOR WOMEN.

Long Branch, N. J.-Henry Ford has
accepted the theory of equal pay for
women, which has been so consistently
urged by the trade union movement.
The automobile manufacturer called on
President Wilson this week and after
wards issued the following statement {:
81 had the pleasure to inform Presi-
dent Wilson this afternoon that / had
established the women workers of my
plant at Detroit and in the branch fac
tories in other cities, upon a pay equal
ity with the men workers. | took this
step following my conference with the
president more than two weeks ago, and
| did SO because of the inspiring talk !
had with Mr.. Wilson on the forward
movement among womankind. This
principle is now in operation and
look forward with complete confidence
to its vindcation"
Upward of 1,500 women are employed
in the Ford plants. Since October TO-
Mr.. Ford explained to the president
these women have been receiving a
minimum wage of $5 day.

introduced into the financial systems of
the larger roads.
