CUTTING OUT
POLITICS

The suggestion is receiving wide
approval, that politics be cut out of
the fall campaigns, and that men of
all parties unite to send back to Wash.
lngton the men who have faithfully
supported the war efforts of the gov
eminent. Certainly the time is in
appropriate for one of our typical po-
litical campaigns, with their self
seeking and rush for personal prefer
ment. 1t Is no time for party rival
ries. What we need is to win the
war. The less partisan feeling there
is this fall, the better.
A hot party contest will hamper the
government in its effort to prosecute
the war. It will give the enemy the
idea that the war policy of the gov
eminent does not meet with popular
approval. When war comes, the best
policy is to continue along the men
who are in power at the time, ad-
Journing the traditional disputes to a
time more favorable for adjusting
them.
The old party issues should be con
sidered as dead in war time. We are
not thinking now about the tariff or
the currency or the old stock argu.
ments or backgrounds. The old Is.
sues will not bring a hurrah on the
stump. The only thing our people
want is to come through with the war
with honor and speed, to get the
thing accomplished and over with.
Any attempt to draw the old lines
and make people follow the old lead
ers is impertinent now.
The very best thing that could hap.
pen would be to keep congress about
on It's present basis, leaving at home
only some who have tried to block
the war plans and cater to the pro.
German vote. We want no hot par.
tsan debates in congress when the.
new elected body meets next spring.
Let the campaign be short. with the
less talk the better. The only issue Is
whether our senators and represcn.
tatives have loyalty supported the
president in his efforts to win this
war. Forget all else.

WON EN- AND
WAR WORK

One of the most serious questions
arising in regard to women workers
in new fields, is that OF the lifting of
heavy weights. In many cases it is
found that women who have gone to
work in such places as railroad yards
are compelled to lift 100 pounds or
more at a time.
II has been said in defense of this
practice, that women have shown
long before this in such employment
as laundry work, that they could lift
these heavy weights. In laundries,
for instance, they have TO handle
great baskets full of wet clothes, re-
quiring great lifting ability.
To this 1t is replied that in laundry
work only occasional lifting of this
kind may be required, while in rail-
road yard the work may be nearly
continuous. For instance women have
to wheel heavy barrows full of heavy
METALS and other products up and
down inclined planes, and to load the
same into freight cars or remove
them to freight houses. and that such
work is likely to be continuous.
A recent report on the physical con-
dition of German working women
states that many of them have been
greatly injured by doing this class OF
work. In the munition plants they
have to spend long periods lifting up
and down heavy projectiles weighing
as high as 80 pounds. They have to
lift these articles breast high and
hold them while they are clamped
down. There is great complaint OF
abdominal trouble as the result of
this form of effort.
The executive clubs controlling
many OF the Detroit, Mich, Industries
have adopted the regulation that the
weights which women should be eX-
pected to lift constantly should be
limited to % pounds. A law to that
effect has been placed upon the stat
ute books of a number of states. II
will certainly be a poor policy to per
NIT women to do themselves lasting
physical injury, even IL some tempo.
rary lack of labor is thereby sup
piled.
