KNOW IMPORTANCE OF WOMAN'S WORK
Industries of State Asked to Co., operate for Higher Standards

1 Hartford, Dec. 21.-Through the 1 Connecticut State Council of Defense,
 1 the federal Department of Labor has l called upon the industries of the state l 10 cooperate with state and federal l agencies in maintaining standards re- 1 lating to womens work and it's con- 1 ditions. These standards have been ! adopted by the War Labor Policies l board, and the Department of Labor 1 has asked the cooperation of indus l tries all over the country. The re- 1 quest was made in recognition of the national importance of womens work l and it's conditions
 It is pointed out by the Department of Labor that no woman should be employed or permitted to work more than eight hours in one day, or 4S hours in any one week. The time when the work of women employees should begin and end and the time allowed for meals should be posted in a conspicuous place in each work room, and a record should be kept of the overtime of each woman worker. Every woman worker, says the La bor department should have one day of rest in every seven, and at least ree-quarters of an hour for meals. No woman should be employed be- tween the hours of 10 p. m, and d. m. Women doing the same work as men should receive the same wages with such proportionate increases as the men are receiving in the same in dustry. Wages should be establish ec upon the basis of occupation and not on the basis of sex, and should cover the cost of living of the dependents and not merely that of the individual Women should not be employed in l occupations involving the use of ! poison, which are proved to be more ! injurious to women than to men, such as certain processes in the lead indus 1 try No work should be given out in 1 rooms used for living or sleeping pur- ! poses, or in rooms directly connected 1 with living or sleeping rooms in any l dwelling or tenement.
 The Labor department points out l that the responsibility should not rest upon the management of an industry ] alone to determine wisely and effect l ively the condition which should exist. ] The genuine cooperation essential to
 production can be secured only if defi-
 mite channels of communication be
 tween employers and group of their
 creating methods of joint negotiation between employers and group of en- ployes is especially great in the light

Find Relics Of Saxon Kings.

Capt. Vaughan Williams Of Old
Windsor has discovered what he be-
lieves to be the site Of the palace Of
the Saxon kings and the pre-conquest
town Of Windsor. It is believed that
there once stood at Old Windsor the
palace Of Edward the Confessor, but
although several Saxon urns have been
excavated here from time to time the
actual position Of the palace has never
been decided.
Tighe and Davis, in their annals OF
Windsor" say that Old Windsor was
probably selected by the Saxon kings
rs d residence for the same reason as
it was subsequently repurchased by
William the Conqueror, on account OF
its convenience for hunting in the for.
est. The lands Of Windsor, granted BY
Edward the Confessor and exchanged
by the abbot Of Westminster with VIII.
liam, appear to have had reference to
Old Windsor, and did not include the
site Of the present town or castle. King
William held Old Windsor as his own
demesne.

war department To the vast saving
that would result if care were exer-
cised in disposal of refuse. Thus far
the department has saved upwards of
100000 on waste materials.
The garbage from the mess Of from
10 to Is soldiers, it is estimated, will
feed one hog a day. Hogs will gain on
in average Of one pound a day on this
ration for the first $50 days, govern
mcnt experts have determined. The
refuse from each cantonment will be
sufficient to feed 1000 hogs a day.
This means an increase Of 1,460,000
pounds Of pork for the country each
year.
Colonel Ellison has injected into
camp life a certain class distinction
in the disposal of garbage. At the
camps the care Of the garbage is a
regular ceremonial. Waste material
is divided into classes, and a special
receptacle is provided for each class.
There is a can for bones, n for rope
and Irvine, another for rags, one for
paper, one for fats and tallow, one
for bottles, one for tin cans, another
for sweeping and pieces Of tobacco,
and still another for garbage.
Practically all of the refusal is sold.
Cans, bottles, bones, fats, paper and
rags have a ready market, and the
garbage proper is carted away for a
hogs banquet. The worthless refuse is
burned in order to adhere to the strict
sanitary regulations Of the camps.
