The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1917-04-05
IT ALL DEPENDS ON WHETHER YOU HEAR
BOTH SIDES OF THE STORY!-OUEER ISN'T 1T?
Queer, isn't it?

QuSLTlal relaLlOnS committee came up
from Springfield to investigate con-
ditiOns under which women workers
Of Chicago are employed.
The object was to find out wheth-
er or not an eight-hOur day law
would be beneficial to the health and
home life of women workers.
The committee, of which Rep. Jas.
NJ. Pace, said to run a hotel at Ma
comb, McDOnOUgh county, is chair
man, held its sessions in the East
Room of the LaSaIle hotel.
Most of the witnesses examined
were hotel employees and-this is the
strange part-nearly all of the wit
nesses, supposed working women,
said they would rather work longer
than eight hours a day. They so
love to peel potatoes in the hotel
basement kitchen or watch spindles
in factory that they are sorry when
the evening whistle blows to tell
them they can go home.
Perhaps they're right about not
being eager to get 'hOme." Home, or
the hall bedroom, must not be a
CHEEKY place for women whose cir
cumstances are such that they must
do the work that some do for the
pitifuI wages they get.
There was quite a lineup Of wit
nesses at that legislative committee
hearing of women who work for the
LaSaIle hotel And they told of
SDIeDdid working conditions in the
big hosiery. Miss Mckay, house
keeper, told how the girls had their
own quarters, their own diningrOom
and chef, how that when they were
i'll they were given free medical at
tention and leave of absence with
pay and how they were then per-
mitted to order their meals from the
guests menu.
A Day Book reporter heard Miss
Mckay and the other LaSalle hotel
with sses tell their story to the COM
L.
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1917-04-05


ISN'T IT?
he said to the city editor. IF the
LaSalle is doing for its girls half
what some Of its employees told the
committee, then we ought to give it
story on the first page to let the
public know Of the fine way one
hotel treats its workers"
So The Day Book man went to
the LaSalle hotel He did not inter-
view Manager Stevens. He did not
talk to HOUsekeeper Miss Mckay, to
any of the floor managers, foreladies,
chefs, or superintendent. He talk
ed to chambermaids and scrubwom-
en-. He heard some things that made
him wonder why some of these
things were not told to the Iegis-
latiYe committee which sat in the
East Room.
He found:
That chambermaids receive S22.5O
month, a room and alleged board.
The rooms are under the laundry.
where the mangles and heavy ma
chlnery often raises such racket that
sleep is next to impossible.
The food, according to nearly a
dozen girls to whom the reporter
talked, is, as one girl put it, "abom-
Unable"
The bread is mostly dried out, the
meat tough, the boiled potatoes black
and soggy the cooking wretched."
they said. The desert is generally
rice pudding or bread pudding. The
rice pudding is not bad, but often the
bread pudding is just a gewwy,
sticky undercooked mass of bread
and something that mostly goes un-
eaten"
None of those to whom the report
er talked had ever heard of a sick
woman worker getting orders from
the guests menu. They told of an
instance where a girl was told she
