Married Women Rush
Into Wage Ranks to
Down Cost of Living
More Than Twice as Many Wives
Earning Money Outside Home
As Year Ago, U. s. Reports
Prove!

Chicago, Mar. 3.-Twice as many
married women are working as wage
earners today as were working a year
ago.
This is true in Chicago, and women
who have watched the trend OF fem
mime labor say it is just as true
throughout the United States.
In January, 1916, out Of every 100
women seeking employment in the
U. s. department of labor service bu.
reau, only 10 were married.
In January, 1917, out of every 100
women, IS were married; and out of
every 100 asking work at the state
employment bureau, 36 were married.
The entrance of married women in
to the shops and factories and into
other women's kitchens is so recent
no official figures have been com.
piled.
But the next report of the federal
department of labor, and of the sew
eral state labor departments, will con.
tain authentic data.
Higher cost of living is the reason
oftenest given. Y
WIS. OOpAIC AduIU, Ill Cldk6O VI tAC
women's bureau of the U. S. employ.
ment service in Chicago, said today:
The average man is not getting
wages enough to support large fam.
lily. The home woman has practiced
economy, but there's a limit to what
economy can do. So the home woman
has had to go to work.
II have troops of married women.
some of them quite elderly, coming in
here offering to do anything just to
help out with the home expenses.
Many have been leading clubwomen
and civic workers"
Mrs. Elizabeth Heneberry. who
meets women seeking work in the llli-
nois State Free Employment bureau,
made this report of the married wo-
mems warfare on high cost:
I'VE found positions for 916 women
during January; more than half Of
these were married. Many were
mothers of babies. Some send their
babies to day nurseries, some keep a
big sister out of school to mind the
house." ill., ... III.
A noted feminist, friend OF Mrs
Emeline Pankhurst-Mrs. Louis Brac-
kett Bishop said: Women shouldn't
wait for the high cost of living to
drive them into the industrial field.
There's no sex in industry. A mar
ried woman should be economically in
dependent of her husband"

Amsterdam March 3.-Admitting
her endeavor to align Japan and Mex.
leo with the kaisers government
against the United States, Germany
justified attempts on the ground that
she had right to take precautions,

with the United States.
A semi-official source was quoted to
this effect in dispatches received from

PRESIDENT WILL NOT
CALL EXTRA SESSION
Omitted Press)

Washington. March :. President
Wilson will not call an extra session of
Congress-, the United Press was Offic.
tally informed today.
If the present Congress can complete
it's work, developments in the inter
national situation are not such as to
warrant an extra session.
The White House received the first
word Of Germany's admittance of a
plot to align Mexico and Japan against
the United States through the United
Press today. State department officials
said the fact that they did admit it
does not alter the situation any.
Authorities felt that the admittance
would have the immediate effect of
sOlidifying patriotic sentiment in Con-
greSS and the nation and might tend
to swerve the legislators.
1t might also kill Senator Stones

band Of pacifists seem to wish.
There is no use to issue moral
homily Or salvation army tract or
to repeat the sermon on the mount to
nation that has gone mad and acts
through its military autocracy like a
Eomicidal maniac. Must we get of
