WANTS WOMEN 10
 WORK ROADS, TOO

Little Rock, Oct. PA ceres pondent of the attorney general, whose name is considerably withheld, evidently does not expect to become a candidate for office, since the en- franchisement of women. In fact the gentleman appears to be somewhat peeVed over the situation. He opposed suffrage originally, but now that it has been granted, against his oppo- sition, he insists that women should be compelled to serve on juries, work the public roads and enlist in the military establishments. He wrote the attorney general asking if this could not be required of them. Gen eral Arbuckle searched carefully the statutes made and provided, but was forced to advise his correspondent that he found no law which would re- qulre women to perform these duties which have and must continue to be the sole perogative of the sterner sex.

workers in department the same wage
regardless of the fact that they do not
all perform the same grade work.
