War.

The emergency war conference
here Wednesday and Thursday, on
the increase to be made in the mini
mum wages of women and minors
due to war. determined upon week
ly wage of 1920 for women more

convene within six months after the
conclusion of the war, to re-adjust
the scale, and adjourned subject to
call at any time by the commission.

were three representatives of the en-
ployers, three of the employees and

WAR PLANTS HIT
BY LABOR SHORTAGE
GOVERNOR ISSUES STATEMENT
URGING WORKMEN TO
CHANGE INDUSTRIES.

Shortage of labor in the war indus
tries of the state, which is becoming
rapidly acute, led Governor Lister to
issue a statement this week calling
upon all men above draft age now
employed in other work to turn their
places over to women and get jobs
in war plants.
This statement says:
I'm the recent call be the federal
department of labor for unskilled
workmen now required in the state
of Washington, the number is placed
at 22,1SO. Two weeks ago the num-
ber needed was $4,000. This shows
a constantly increasing demand for
unskilled workmen in industrial lines.
Each month men are entering the
army and navy service in numbers
rendering it more and more difficult
to meet the demand for men in in
dustrial lines.
1T is clear that the call for work
men in the lines fixed by the govern
ment as essention to the winning Of
the war, can now be met only through
men leaving the non-essential lines
in which they are employed.
while realize that many persons
hesitate to change from the employ
ment in which they are now and have
in the past been engaged. the demand
is so great in the essential lines that
this change must be made by many
of our men II we are to perform the
best service in the winning Of the
war.
II desire to call attention to the
requirements as presented by the gov
ernment and to urge the fullest pos
sible compliance with the call made.
There are lines in which are now
engaged that can properly be filed
by the girls and women Of the state.
It has been suggested that there are
now employed as walters in hotels
and restaurants Of the state. several
hundred men who are capable of TAX
ing up the essential lines of employ
ment fixed by the government, and
whose places could readily be taken
by girls and women. These are men
outside the present draft ages and
who are not effected by the work or
fight order. I make this suggestion
to those who are operating hotels
and restaurants and to the men en-
ployed as walters therein, in the hope
that many of these men will volun-
tarily change their line of employ
ment, and that the places vacated
by them may be filled by girls and
women"
