The Pope's Proposals.

Samuel Gompers, president Of the

cent statement said: sOf course, an,e
thing that the pope may say must be
seriously considered by labor. In my
Judgment, however," continued Mr..
Gompers, there is only one basis for
permanent peace either the abdication
of kaiserism to the democracies of the
world or the democracies must crush
kaiserism. The proposals of the pope,
In my judgment, contain nothing to In
sure the peoples of the world against
the recurrence of war. This is a war
of democracy against autocracy. Our
attitude toward the people of Germany
is one Of pity, and we have no feeling
against the kaiser as man, but as a
kaiser"

FIXING W0MEN'S WAGES.
california"s New Scale Provides That
$40 Shall Be Minimum.

Div Ondl DS
The supreme court decision of April

The Arkansas supreme court has up

over six months of not less than S125
for a day of nine hours.
1.-THE strength, intelligence and vir-
tue of each generation" declared the
court, depend to a great extent upon
the mothers. Therefore the health and
morals of the women are matter of
grave concern to the public, and conse-
quently to the state itself"
More recently still the state indus
trial welfare commission of California
has announced a revised wage schedule
for women employed in mercantile es-
Establishments. 1t provides that no ex-
perienced woman shall be employed In
any mercantile industry of the state at
a wage less than $40 a week, or $43 SO
a month.
A lower wage is set for learners.
starting with minimum Of So week
for girl learners under eighteen years
Of age and a minimum of So week for
girls starting to work between eight
cen and twenty years. In each case
the wages will be automatically In
creased so cents a week every six
months until the minimum wage of $40
a week for experienced workers is
reached Learners starting work at
twenty years or over begin at mini
mum Of So week and receive an auto
matte increase of 80 cents every six
months until $40 is reached.
The regulation stipulates that no wo-
man or minor will be allowed to work
In a mercantile industry more than
eight hours in any one day or forty
eight hours in any one week.-Survey.

In industries when | can show y0f
fifty men a day who can't get job, a
spite of the fact that 1t is claime}
there is work for ALL Mr.. Gende3
said.
There shouldn't be any hurry to use
women in work which they never wert
intended to do until all the men hapb
been utilized. And this Is not being
done. There is an astonishing waste
Of labor because of the lack of thought
by employers in selecting their help.
They are STA ting to use women
now at jobs like greasing engines and
other WORK which doesn't require mudh
physical labor or intelligence. There b
large class Of male labor, composed
Of men VINO haven't the physical sta1a-
Ina for bard jobs nor the mental tenak-
ity for clerical or indoor work, which
can be utilized at such jobs as this ard
In other work which merely requirds
somebody to lie there.
Employers either apply for men who
are capable Of working In steel mills at
30 cents All hour or more for Jobs like
this, and offer them $40 and $12 week,
perhaps at loading platforms. whefe
any one with less than ordinary intelh-
gence and little physical strength could
perform the work just as well. They
don't use discrimination In giving EN-
ployment. and they make no attempt
to fit the man to the Job. That's tie
reason men are turned away from ohr
bureau after long, hard effort to get
them work. They are capable of doihg
work for which poor labor Is sufficient,
but employers insist on labor which Is
far superior to the low class of work
intended for them.
There are jobs small, weak men can
do which are given to big, strong men,
The small, weak men are left without
tobs, and the employer who might have
used the big, strong man complains
about the shortage Of labor. Or IL the
big, strong man is given the big, strong
job, perhaps they will put woman at
the work the small. weak man could
do. It's lack OF intelligent thought and
broad minded way of looking at the
labor problem which is responsible for
lot Of the trouble In the labor sitqa-
ton.
Employers must be educated cpd
awakened to the need for thoughtsa Id
careful adjustments of their help Ne
fore the labor problem will COMMENCE
to be solved"
