WOMEN IN EURoPE's INDUSTRY

Fifteen thousand women per
month are being enlisted in the
rtunition factories of Great Britain.
according to a statement by the
Earl Of Derby in the House of Com
mons. An army of women have al
ready been brought into this SER
vice Of providing the necessaries OF
war. In France even a larger pro-
portion Of women are understood
TO be employed in industries which,
two years ago, would have been re-
gerded as open exclusively to men.
Women are learning trades that
IN the past have been thought of as
only fitting for men. They are be-
coming metal workers; they turn
out the castings for shrapnel, they
do heavy physical labor, they are in
mines and fields. The state, in its
extremity, calls upon them for every
form of effort of which they are
capable, and they are proving them
selves capable Of things that for
two or three generations past, al
least, were presumed to be exSlu-
sively for the men.
Not only arc the women doinp
these things, but doing them well
according to the reports. When the
war is over and the time comes for
restoring the structures and indus.

will undoubtedly be a continuance
Of this employment Of women in un-

TnE JOB OF JANlroR

Nowhere In either the Federal OIL
District government does any one
large group Of employees receive such
a ridiculous wage as that paid to the
janitors, Of Washington's public
schools.
This fact has been known, and has
been urged upon Congress for many
years. II the agitation for e wider
use of school buildings results in
raising the wage scale Of these en-
ployes IL will have done some good
even if a Sunday forum gets no
nearer the public schools than the
National Museum.
In an eight room building janitors
get $50 a month when furnaces are
used, and $3.50 per month when
steam heat has been installed. In
the latter case the schools require,
for this munifcent wage. that the
janitor be q steam engineer. In q
twelve room building $50 a month Is
the uniform pay. In all OF the city's
great high schools, with their ca
|pensive heating plants, ventilating
systems, and large buildings, the
janitors are. paid SIS q month.
This sort Of economy has worked a
hardship to the janitors. and it also
has heavily handicapped the schools.
The requirements for a school jani-
tor are higher than those for a JAM
tor in an Office building or an apart
ment, because the character of the
man who must mingle constantly
with school children must be a prime
consideration. The only wonder 10
that the schools have not developed
more troubles with their janitors.
Hugh McQueeny, the superintendent
Of janitors, has been compelled to run
a sort Of training school, and, with
the best exertions it has been impos-
sible to keep good men. The WASH
ington schools form a breaking n
place for large number Of men who
60 forth and get better jobs else
where.
To require these men, already I'M
derpaid and required to work from
ten to fourteen hours a day, to add
to their duties the added work re-
quired by night meetings of adults,
was about the last straw. Strongest
advocates Of the wider use of schools
realize the difficulty Of the janitor
problem. Coupled with any plan for
fuller use of schools must be some
provision for the better pay Of these
janitors.

A DOUBTFUL SUBMARINE

The charge that submarine at

sbly one of the sea yarns to be taken
with grain Of salt. The, captain VI

the wake Of the torpedo, declared to

stop before launching the TORPEDO at
her. Then, if the vessel did not stop,
as evidently there was no intention
az doing, the submarine would have

to step the Patria by force.
The United States Government has
never contended, no government has
ever contended, that submarine has

What this Government and other
governments have striven to d, in
The long submarine wrangle has been
IL enforce the principle that the tor

gurs fired without giving the ship an
opportunity to stop and the passen-
gers 8 chance to leave tie ship; and
that, even. il the ship attempts to
escape, the submarine must stop
firing when the ship gives up her
fight.
Clearly enough, the Patria was
b.nt on escaping. whether it was a
real or fancied submarine, whether
the wake of a torpedo was Sc III or
was imagined. So not even charge
Of violated international law could
lie against the submarine. And, any
how nothing happened; so there is
no 81 ance that this case will ever be
taken up seriously by the State De-

NEGRO HEALTH.

1t is very important that all sec
tons of the country work together in
arranging conditions that will better
enable all races to live in mutual
helpfulness and confidence; but it is
still more important that the races
work together for the attainment OF
this end. There must be cooperation
between the health authorities and
Negro leaders, such as physicians,
minister's, and teachers. Negro doc
tors and nurses are increasing, many
hospitals and nurse-training schools
for Negroes are being founded. and
all are being approved by many lead
ing Southerners. Splendid assistance
and cooperation have been given by
white physicians and public health
officers. Negroes themselves take
great interest in solving health and
sanitation problems, thus decreasing
their mortality. Leaders are devel-
oping who take pride in directing
their race in any endeavor, and watch
all development with great interest
The race is amenable to teaching,
instruction, and direction in the health
and sanitation movement, and in a
number of instances Negroes have
cooperated with the whites in stamp
ing out plaques and epidemics. The
Negro should not only cease to be
an actual menace to the white race by
being a favorable bed for disease, but
by proper teaching should become a
valuable ally in stamping out dis
eases prevalent among both races.
