Union League will pay the reception
and entertainment expense of the
accredited representatives to the
women's congress during their stay
IN Washington. Details for the con-
sress have not been completed. The
local members of the union may be
asked to entertain the foreign guests
IN their homes, or the league may

Two Ways Of
Presenting Ideas

While the congress will have no
authority to enforce it's findings or
resolutions, it may present these to
the International Labor Conference
Or it may get the ideas of women
IN industry before the mems meeting
by means of technical advisers at
tached to the international confer
ence, Provision has been made that
at least two of these technical ad-
visers shall be women, to give coun-
sci on the matters concerning
women and children in industry
Whatever theories and ideals NAV
be formulated in a definite pro-
gramme by the women themselves
can be translated to the men dele
gates by these technical advisers.
Underlying the whole fabric of
this move to put labor women of
the world in touch with one another
IS the fact that the International
Labor Conference will have the
power to recommend legislative
and other programmes to the gov
ernments represented in it's assem-
bly,. The women are DESTROYS that
whatever they deem progressive and
fine in labor legislation shall have a
place in these recommendations
Women of the countries sending
delegates to the international Labor
Conference are endeavoring to
have one Of the governmental ap-
pointees chosen from the ranks of
women Each government may
name two representatives, in addi-
ron to the one accredited to Capt.
tai and the one to Labor.

sioner of Industry F. S. Pease of Burling-
ton has been retained in that position by
Commissioner John 9. Buttles. recently
appointed by Governor Clement. Mr..
Pease was one of the members of the
original accident industrial board by APP
pointment Of Governor Gates in 1915. When
the Legislature abolished the board and
substituted a commissioner of industry to
perform its duties. Mr.. Pease was natur-
ally selected by Commissioner Simonds as
his deputy. 1t thus transpires that Mr..

with the consideration in this important
felrd of State work All concerned are to
be congratulated on the retention Of Mr.
Pease in the position he has so well and
SO satisfactorily filled.
