Wanted, a New Order of Industry.

"There are 20 outstanding leaders of
American business and industry" says
Glenn Frank, the SociolOgiSt, "whO
have always been classed as conserva-
tive men concerned primarily with the
financial problems of industry; if these
20 men should pool their brain power
in a study of the labor problems with
the same sustained thought they have
given to financial problems, If they
should counsel with the students of la
Dor as they have counseled with the
students of chemical, electrical and
other problems that touch their busi-
ness interests, and if they should take
the initiative in making a sincere and
exhaustive study of the whole area
lying between the extreme forms Of
private capitalism and the extreme
forms of state socialism in order to
find out whether or not there Is a mid
die ground of industrial self-govern-
ment on which both labor and capital
can stand in a cooperation that will
minister to the legitimate aims of both,
they would, with dramatic suddenness,
invent a new order Of industry. The
American public is waiting for busi-
ness craftsmanship that will attack
the governmental problem in indus
try."-Century Magazine.

The completed draft of the conven-

for the promotion of labor interests and
international regulation of labor cOnd1-

of the general conference will be held

at least one of the advisers should be
a woman.
The conference will meet at the seat

WOMEN WORKERS
HAVE DONE WELL
British Home Office ACcordS
Them Assured Place in
Industry.
MANY new FIELDS OPENED
Trades Long Considered Unsuited to
Female Labor Have Been Success
fully Neutrality-suspicious. Referred
to as National Asset of Great Value.

The British home office has issued
a memorandum upon the substitution
OF women in nOnammunition factories.
The memorandum states that the re-
ports of the home office inspectors
show that substitution has proceeded
on two main lines. On the one hand,
in the trades in which women were
largely employed before the war, they
have now been introduced into skilled
and semiskilled processes normally re-
served for men, as well as into a num-
Der of subsidiary laboring operations
on the other, it has been found neces-
sary to employ them in important in
dustries from which custom or the ma
ture of the work carried on had hither-
to entirely or almost entirely excluded
them.
While substitution had in many cases
been found most successful in these in
duStries where women were already at
work in some sections, and where the
work to be carried on was obviously
suitable for them, there have been
many oIAlhIuS eACcpIlOuS 10 IUlS Tulcs
There was comparatively little sue
cessful substitution in the textile
trades, but on the other hand, when
women were brought, frequently with
reluctance, into certain trades and Oc-
cupations which from the nature and
conditions Of the work are held in nor
NAL times to be quite unsuitable for
female labor, they often did remark
ably well.
Reports show also that in a great
prepOnderance of cases substitution
has proved satisfactory. In certain
trades already largely employing wom-
en-, such as the clothing and boot and
shoe industries, women have shown
capacity to take up, and to carry out
completely and satisfactorily, many of
the more skilled processes hitherto re-
served for men, and have acquired
mastery of the whole range of opera
tiOns in other trades, like light leather
tanning, which they had barely touched
before the war. Moreover they have
displayed unexpected readiness for
work which al first sight seemed high
ly. unsuitable for themL carrying. out

AMERICAN WOMEN AND
VICTORY BONDS

When Mr.. Wilson went abroad
His wife was at his side;
And when he went a second time
Did he forget his bride?
And also when he goes to church
Or to the movie show,
He never fails to take along
A woman whom we know.
Sometimes the President allows
The kodak fiend around;
But in each picture you will see
That Mrs. Wilson'S found.
So when we use the Wilson name
Or to it have alluded,
Dc we just mean the President !?
Why, no, his wife's included.
Now, ladies, learn a lesson, pray,
From this my little story;
And each demand an equal share
In all your husbands glory.
And when your husbands buy som
bonds,
To bring the boys back home,
You buy some, too, and speed tn
boys
Across the crystal foam.
But if you have no husbands,
Why, bless your single lives,
Then buy a double portion, since
The boys will all want wives.

nouncement was made to the house Sat

be a general revision Of the tarit law.
In making the announcement Fordncy
said:
Il learned yesterday that the railroad
administration has decided. without con-
sulting any other branch of the govern
1ment. to reduce freight rates on foreign
imports entering this country on the
Pacific coast and going to the Atlantic
coast. Freight rates on foreign imports
especially from the Orient. VIII be re-
duced from S2.70 per ton TO $500 per
ton on less than carload lots and from
S1.57la per ton on carload lots to S1.5o
per ton on carload lots. This reduction
was requested by importers of foreign
made goods and not by domestic pro-
ducers. This is a reduction in every
sense of our present tariff rates on I'M
ported goods. II is another way Of
getting at lower import duties. 1t applies
