WOMEN WHO NEED
WORK CONE FIRST
q. S. Employment Bureau Seek
ing to Aid Those Who
Need Jobs.

That in placeme-t of women workers
by the United States Employment Serv-
ice, first choice should always be given to
women applicants, who actually need TO
earn their living, in the opinion OF Agnes
Nestor, who WAS the representative Of
women on the Advisory Council of the
Department OF Labor.
al feel very strongly that women Of
wealth and influence should, not be called
upon to take jobs, until all other help is
exhausted" said Miss Nestor. 1.-The
first chance should be given TO women
who need to earn their living. Yet women
who have never worked before, are being
constantly appealedto and asked rs mat
ter of patriotism to enter industry. Ihis
is all right, when there is actual need Tor
the services of every one, but when tins
does not exist, the rushing of great
many women into industry, has a tend
ency to glut the labor market, forcing
wages down, and bringing suffering TO
women and girls, who are absolutely de-
pendent upon their earnings"
The best way to maintain the prlnclpie
of equal wage for equal work in unskilled
trades, is to standardize the job, according
to Miss Nestor.
"Some EMPLOYERS" she said, are con-
stantly dodging this question by tech
nicalities. For instance, a Chicago stock
yard refused to give women the same pay
as men for sorting bones, giving as the
reason that women were given gr1stle
to sort. II is commonly granted that
women hsve more nimblc fingers than
men, and they are quicker. This should
offset their lack Of muscular strength.
efforts are now being made TO stop
this quibbling over the equalization OF
wages for men and women. The remedy
is to set certain wage for the performance
of q certain job, no matter whether 1T is
performed by men or women"
