Swedes Protest
Against Discrimination

A surprise of the gathering was
the number Of official visitors sent
by various women's organizations in
all parts of the United States. In
the delegate groups the representa-
tives Of the working women Of
France, Belgium. Japan, England,
the United States, Switzerland, Ar
gentina, Poland, Czecho- Slovakia,
Italy, Sweden and Canada told how
the eight-hour day, the protection of
maternity and the principle of equal
pay for equal work had consumed
the interest Of their respective trade
organizations. Swedish labor women
augmented the word of their dele
cation with cablegram protesting
against any discriminatory legisla-
ton in behalf of working women.
This was because the congress Of
women assembled was expected to
recommend to the International
Labor Conference, also in session
here, the kind of worldwide legis-
lation organized women wish
enacted. The international Labor
Conference was authorized under
the peace treaty. The interna-
tional working women's congress
p7as private venture called by the
American women at the request Of
the British trade union federations
Great Britain's advanced labor
ideals are expressed by Margaret
Bondfield, who is also technical ad-
wiser to the labor delegates from
Great Britain for the International
Labor Conference. Many Of the
women participating in the congress
are technical advisers to the vari-
Gus governmental delegates to the
International Labor Conference.
Taking part in the women's con-
gress gave them material on which
to base advice when summoned to
ell the men what the women OF
The world believe on any subject
under discussion by the 1nterna-
tional Labor Conference, no official
representative Of women and chill
dren in industry having been pro-
vided.
