600 tons, which was an increase Of
10000 tons over the previous weeks

ton increases, and that the Connells-

War Council Of Y. W. C. A. Has
Been Asked to Provide
Adequate Facilities.

Steps Already Taken for Their Estab-
Iishment in This Country, England
and France-Ten Million Engaged
In Industry in the United States.

There are now 100000 women in
industry in the United States, the
Z G. A. war council announced.
The council has been asked by the
sSissaeEls sA6 pE6sas4e raaraaaisn fer
the Women workers oil the country who
are radually replacing men, and in
order 70 arrange for adequate facilities
an INVESTIGATION was ordered which
disclos& this figure. 1t is only approx
innate, however.
The @uncil found that since this
country Eentered the war 100000
women had been placed in industry
in this country, and basing their esti-
mates on this figure, which was due
to abnormal conditions, they arrived
at an approximate normal increase
which brought them to the 100000
estimate.
In the handling Of these women, un-
der the supervision of the commission
on training camp activities, a series
of foyers and clubhouses throughout
this country, England and France had
to be built, furnished and recreational
facilities installed. Allowances have
been made for increase Of women In
industry brought about by the contin-
uatiOn of the war and the rapidly d.
minishing man power in industry.

War Is Means Of Training Labor.

An interesting wartime labor devel-
opment which will be Of special i'm
portance during the time of reconstruc-
tion after the war is the war depart
ment's plan to train 100000 National
army men In trades of special military
value. Already large numbers of these
men have undertaken the training
courses at schools and colleges-11O
in all-in every part Of the United
States.
The training the men are receiving
is, Of course, primarily to fit them for
effective work in France or in duty of
military Importance at home, but most
of the trades, If not all of them, in
fact, will have an important peacetime
value as well. The problems Of the
reconstruction period cannot be fore
seen with any certainty now, but the
creation of this reserve of mechanic
ally trained men will no doubt be of
importance In the reorganization of in
dustry on peace basis.

Victory for Organized Labor in

h National House.
MEASURE AIMS AT TRAITORS
Severe Penalties imposed for Sabotage
or WilIfuI Obstruction of Necessary
War Work-ShipbuIding Labor Ad-
justment Board Grants Basic Eight
Hour Day.

Organized labor scored a victory in
the house of representatives by secur-
Ing exception of orderly or bona fide
strikes for increased pay and better
conditions from drastic penalties di-
rected at wartime interruption of bel
ligerent utilities.
The bill, which passed, provides a
$4,000 fine, 80 years. Imprisonment or
both for the willful injury or destruc-
tion of war material for willfully MAX
ing or causing to be made in defec-
tive manner any war material, or for
conspiring to prevent the erection or
production of such war premises, war
material or war utilities.
The last provision is limited in its
operation by. the clause that nothing
In the act shall apply to the right of
men to agree together to cease work
or not to. work if for the purpose Of
getting increased wages or for better
ing their conditions.
Organized labor came In for sharp
criticism during discussion of the bill,
the carpenters union being cited as
an example of lack Of patriotism In
attempting to hold up by strike the
shipbuilding efforts of the government.
But the drive on activities against the
government was made on the Industri-
al Workers of the World.
Former Speaker Cannon led in this
fight, receiving strong support from the
congressman from Washington, Ore
gon, Arizona and New Mexico, where
this organization has worked most ex-
tensively.
Mr.. Cannon presented an amend
ment, extending the law to apply to
conspiracies to prevent the erection or
production Of war premises, war ma
terials or war utilities.
Labor leaders In the house and con-
gressmen representing districts with
strong labor organizations protested
that the, language of the amendment
was broad enough to permit the pun
ishment for lawful, orderly strikes, but
the amendment was written into the
bill by vote of 255 to 81, all the house
leaders voting for it.
Congressman Lunn of New York pre-
sented an amendment modifying the
language. so as to exclude those engag-
ed In bona fide strike. A roll call re-
suited In Its adoption.
