IT. HE part that is being played by the of this
nation and of the nations of our Allies in helping
TO win the is inspiration to every patriotic
citizen. Not only have patriotic entered the
service of the Army and Navy, performed miracles of
mercy in the nursing service and Red Cross work and
many other lines Of patriotic endeavor but they have
also entered the ranks OF industry in vast numbers and
have learned to perform the tasks of skilled workers
and artisans Many lines of work for which it formerly
thought women unsuitable not sufficiently
skful have now been opened up to women, and there
are many tasks admirably adapted to the deftness
patience and skilfu touch of women workers. The
tremendous Withdrawals Of from industry and
from the farms have called for O replace them
in increasing numbers. This is of organized
industry and organized nations. To accomplish the
great task of winning the war; it necessary that sup
plies and munitions be made and transported to
armies in vast and increasing quantities. This task
could not be done without the help Of the great army
of women workers. and is only right and proper
that recognize the value Of the service rendered by
them.
AZ the same time let me urge caution in the matter
OF substituting for industry in order that
may do injustice either to the the
nation itself We forget in the hurry Of
that the the home-keepers and mothers of
the heir health and strength must be maintained
at all hazards. Proper standards Of working condi-
tons, of hours of labor. wages etc. must be main

equal work. BY that | do not mean that every
worker should receive the pay a doing a

make an exorbitant profit out of the patriotism and

New York State has taken advanced ground in
the matter of protection of in industry Its laws
for the protection of workers perhaps the
best OF any state. Recently there has been created
with approval special bureau in the State Indus

Industry at the head of which Is a woman who has

that patriotic citizens will be too optimistic that
they will relax their efforts and postpone the day of

that In my opinion there is absolute necessity in
our country tor women who are in position to do
so to come forward and engage manual labor of the
kind which they have not heretofore engaged in so that
men might be released for more important war work
and know that they doing so in large numbers

higher pay which is offered but greater number
OF them are doing it real patriotic duty and they

they will do so.
