MANY OPPOSE CHANGE
Most Merchants In Kansas Favor
Q O'Clock Closing.

Times have changed among the
merchants Of Kansas. Not many
years ago they were almost unan.-
mously opposed to any maximum hour
and minimum wage regulation for
women employees Nowadays there
are as many merchants in the state
In favor of the nine hour law as
there are opposed to it, according to
Miss lima Bresette, secretary Of
the industrial welfare commission.
In fact. Miss Bresette believes they
generally favor it.
\ public hearing to determin
whether or not women clerks can be
employed later than . O'Clock Sat-
urday nights in towns Of less than
1000 population will be held be-
fore the welfare commission March
90.
In announcing the hearing, Miss
Bresette asked for an expression OF
opinion from the merchants of the
state on the 8 o'clock closing feature
and on regulatory features of the
law.
Junction City. Great Bend, FIRE.
donia, Wichita. and Hutchinson
dealers were among others who now
favor the nine hour law, and do not
see the necessity for 10 o'clock
closing. On the other hand a num-
her Of merchants In the smaller
towns do want to keep open until
10 o'clock Saturday nights, and the
rule probably will be adopted at the
of the commission.
