MRS. FLORENCE KELLEY TALKS ABOUT THE
 WORK OF "NATIONAL CONSUMERS LEAGUE,

working hours of women to 10 in one day | and 54 in one week.
 "That cleanliness is next to godliness has long been recognized, but only in re- cent years have we learned that-lt also pays" Mrs. Kelley continued. 'The pun lie. which usually gets what It asks Tor. is demanding cleanliness with a growing insisfenoe Shirtwaists embroidered in 8 sweatshop are sbeing refused and coats finished in a. dark and dirty tenement
 home are being rejected. Light, moro Isght on the places where garments are made is beginning to be the cry, And the National Consumers league IS pre- pared to shed this light. Using no boy colt methods, the National Consumers league believes rather in giving than withholding it's patronage. It urges it's own members and the entire shopping
 nublic as well to buy garments from
 manufacturers known to have good con ditions in their shops. Any given em- rIover is helpless to improve conditions
 iinless sustained by public opinion, by
 law. and by the action of consumers.
 The league says to the public: There are
 some concerns making an honest enort 10
 be clean and to give just treatment to the workers. Patronize them-shoW then tLat you appreciate their effort. MaSe it easy for them to uphold thelr goou
 standard To enable purchasers to ols- tinguish garments made in clean, weii7
 kept factories from those made under
 other conditions, it authorizes label to
 be used This label guarantees that the
 garments which bear it are made m iac-
 tories where: The state factory law IS
 obeved: goods are madde on premises ap-
 proved by the league; overtime is not
 worked: girls under 1G years of age are not employed. Recognizing that business is a matter of demand and supply, the National Consumers league creates de-
 mand for label goods, and does every thine else possible to make for clean and Whnl esnne conditions.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1917-03-10
N0M MoRE sIgnifleant than any otherl

66MMoRE significant than han any y, other VA Consumers league has accom- plshed during the past 10 years, is the defense of the short working day for women and children"
 Mrs. Florence Kelley, the able general secretary of the National Consumers league. gave utterance to these vital words yesterday when I had the pleas some of the results of the work that the National Consumers league has accom- plished
 Mrs. Kelley is a woman of splendid ability; she thinks in big terms as she works on a big scale. As second in com mand of the forces of the Consumers league, the Hon. Newton D. Baker, Sec retary of War; being president of the organizati ation, Mrs Kelley stands out as a national figure, a woman whose splendid work and tremendous force have given her place among the great women of the day
 For IS years Mrs. Kelley has made her home in The House in Henry street. New York, settlement of as great re- nown as Hull house, Chicago, where for eight years she was associated with Miss Jane Addams.
 tWhen laws have been attacked as un- constitutional bearing upon working hours for women and other facts relative to such conditions, the National Consum- CTS league has defended the action. We have defended successfully the California eight-hour law for women, which estab- lished the short day for even nurses in training in hospitals. When this law was attacked before the supreme court of the United States, MT. Louis D. Bran deis, previous to his appointment as jus tice of the supreme court of the United States by President Wilson, for nine years in defense of laws of this character, acted as our unpaid counsel.
 You ask me what the National Con- sumers' league has accomplished, Mrs. Kelley repeated my question after me. "The whole child labor legislation of the north is the outgrowth of our work. The Consumers league of the city of New York began in 1890, in an effort to pur- suade the shopping public to interest it. self in the children and young women who served in stores. At that time, no legislation existed; no public opinion, no standards, and not even any common knowledge among the merchants them selves existed of what each was doing in the way of wages, hours, sanitary ar- engagements, supply of seats, or permis- Slon 10 use them, when the young Work- CTS were not actively engaged Tn the serv- ice of the customers.
 "The educational work of the National Consumers league,' Mrs. Kelley con- tinued had been going on 13 years be- fore the child labor committee of New York or the National Child Labor com mittee was founded, so you can see that the organization has been one of the pio- neers in working at conditions which I have spoken of. In 1890 in New York city the parent league was formed; the National league followed in 1899, by con- solidating the leagues in New York city, Philadelphia. Chicago and Boston. Now we have 50 leagues in 19 different states
