ALBANY, March 27.-The Caulfield
bill. sponsored by the Women's Joint
legislative Conference and the State
Federation Of Labor, extending the
rrotective features Of labor laws to
women employed by transportation
eomnsnies, was voted down in the AS
sembly to-day by 81 to 35.
No sooner had the bill been intro
duced by Assemblyman James Fl. Caul-
field of Brooklyn, than Speaker Thad-
deus c. Sweet called for rising vote.
Tho votes of individual members of
the Assembly thus went unrecorded.
Criticism was directed afterward
against Assemblyman Caulfeld for not
asking for rollcall on the measure.
He was also censured for introducing
the bill to-day, when only eighty five
of the $50 members Of the Assembly
we're present.
A bill introduced by Mrs. Ida B.
Sammis, Of Babylon, Long Island, in
cIuding women elevator runners in the
protective features Of the labor law,
was adopted unanimously earlier in
the day. It's passage through the
Senate and Endorsement by the Gov
ernor are foregone conclusions.
Only One to Pass
The Sammis bill is the only one of
the six measures advocated by the
Women; Joint Legislative Conference
and the State Federation Of LABOR that
leaders here have agreed should pass.
One of the five remaining is the Caul-
field bill. The others provide for
health insurance, minimum wage for
women. an eight-hour day and protec-
ton for women employed in Offices.
Miss Mary Dreier, chairman of the
Womens Legislative Conference, has
appealed to the legislators, asking
them to abandon their opposition to
the measures
1T is incredible" she says in her
appeal, "to think that in these days Of
tremendous upheaval, when all the
governments of the world are consid-
ering the problems of labor and re-
construction, that the leaders in AL
bany should show such opposition to
our programme. which aims, in slight
way at least at meeting one of the
most pressing of our industrial prob
lens that of the needs OF women in
Industry.
Expects Overthrow of Machine
at is unthinkable that the biggest
state in the Union should make no eff
fort to solve the problems of indus
trial unrest. 1t is even more unthink-
able that its legislators should be pre-
vented from taking action on the only
bills which are before it which attempt
to meet few of the present industrial
problems.
II believe that once the representa-
tives of the people-the legislators
realize what has happened they will
Justify our faith in them and over
throw the control of the machine"
