LAW FOR WOMEN

The eight hour law for women VIII
work for an employer has just gont
through the mill with other grist tina
the legislature OF the state has beer
struggling with.
The governor has signed the meas
ure and 1t now waits for the short
period OF time to elapse until II will
be an operative law. Among all the
legislation that has been before that
body this session no finer thing has
been done than the passage of this
law. II is a sign Of progress: 1t is an
indication that we are awake to some
OF the requirements of humanity.
Other states have gone before us in
this matter OF recognizing abuses that
have been suffered by those least able
to bear them. AS time goes on we
draw closer and closer to sanity, each
year the human race is becoming more
time may come when we will place hui
man welfare above the disgraceful
claims Of the almighty dollar. Just at
the present time, and for many years
in the backward flight of time, the
dollar has held first place in the con-
sideration OF human affairs. or course
a dollar has always been able to roll
jauntily and merrily along on easy
street while humanity at large has
struggled for a mere existence.
But 1t has only been within the last
quarter century that women have been
about equal with men in claiming
space on industrial pay rolls.
In this day and age we are not
shocked when We see a woman earn
Ing her own living. We are coming to
the point where we can appreciate
her position in the social scale. Like !
the things men do for a living, women |
are found earning a pay check by the |
exercise OF mere physical strength or
by the application of keen intellect and
education. But in the very nature of
things women cannot change places as
often as men can. II man does not
'AnS hiS employment he can easily
move to a more congenial field, espe-
cially II he is single, but a woman can.
not drop down into a community I'M
heralded and find a position easily.
Whether or not there Is justification
in our attitude We seem to be more
suspicious Of strange woman than |
we are OF strange man. But health |
statistics have proved that the general |
average OF women cannot follow the
different lines OF employment that are
enumerated in this new bill and retain |
normal health where they are required |
to work unlimited hours. Many EN-.
ployers take advantage Of the need of |
the employee to wiring out the last |
ounce OF energy the body has to give. |
That Of course, is all wrong, and the |
law that says the employer shall be

more than eight hours work from his |
female employees Gin certain occupa.

gressive thought that is gaining a |
strong hold in the United States. II
shows that We are becoming civilized.

PORTUGAL WILL

OF the new government Of Portugal
was pledged to the allied cause today
in q statement issued at the Portu-
Suese legation which also denounces
the report that two recent revolutions
were brought about in the interests OF

Efforts are being made in certain
quarters to suggest the idea that the
recent revolution in Portugal was car
ried out in the interest of the mon.
archy with the assistance Of Spanish
and other foreign elements and that 1t
was essentially movement in favor
of Germany and against the allies,
There is not a scintilla Of truth in
any one of these suggestions. They
are merely one more devices OF the
AIl-Pervading German propaganda in.
tended to now dissension among the
allies. Their character can easily be
appraised by noting the quarters IN
which they are. put forth.
''Ths foreign policy Of the new Por.
tuguese government rests and will
continue to rest on the maintenance
OF the alliance with England in hearty
cooperation with the other allies.
"The hostile attitude OF the German
press toward the new situation in
Portugual and the bombardment OF
the Portuguese port Of F'unchal by a
German submarine, directly the sue
cess of the revolution became known,
clear show the flimsy nature of the
German propaganda's latest strate.
