Indiana Federation of Clubs stands
for equal suffrage and the enactment
of legislation regulating the hours and
safeguarding conditions of women IN
industry, and very much appreciates
the fact that Governor Goodrich pre-
scented these measures in his message
to the legislature. The federation also
stands with Governor Goodrich In his
efforts to make permanent the wom-
ems division Of the inspection depart
ment of the industrial board now head
ed by Mrs. Arthur F. Cox of Lake
county. 1t Is believed that with the
support of the governor these meas
ures will be made effective.
