Especial Dispatch to The 7ribune)
WASHINGTON. Oct. Glow to assure
equal pay for equal work by women
and mon, how to control night work
for women, the question of employ
incnt of women in industries where
the health hazards are IL menace to
future generation, tho enforcement of
sanitary laws and regulations in tho
workshops, and various other prob
lens affecting women workers, espe-
.cially in view of war conditions, were
subjects laid before the conference Of
trade union women which closed here
yesterday. Secretary Of Labor Wilson
and Miss Mary Van Kleeck, director of
the Woman in Industry Service, and
Miss Mary Anderson. assistant direc
ter. addressed the twenty-five women
representing various national and in
ternational labor organizations who
attended the conference.
Secretary Wilson said among the
problems most pressing at this junct-
ure is that of controlling night work
for women. To meet existing condi-
tions he proposed a programme of di-
rect Federal control. The Secretary
referred to the initial pronouncement
of the Council of National Defence to
The effect that established labor stand
ards should not be lowered without
special permission of the council. and
pointed to the efforts of some en-
ployers to take advantage of the war
emergency and q degree Of hysteria on
the part of the public to accomplish
purely selfish ends.
With reference to the increasing de-
mand for night work of women, he
said that in only seven states arc
there laws on this subject, and the
problem before the labor administra-
ton is to find means not only to CO.
operate with the states in the enforce
ment of laws where such exist, but to
establish and enforce standards in
those states that have no laws.

1t ran riot when Captain Bevione, Of

the band opened the concert with tie
"Stalr-Spangled Banner" the italian
