WOmen's Trade
Union League Asks
Harding for Sound
Women Laws

WASHINGTON. - Administration
support for the working women's po-
sition in favor of constructive laws
for women and against blanket legis-
lation for so-called equal rights"
which would destroy the legal indus
trial standards for women in indus
try, was asked of President Harding
this morning by committee from
the National Women's Trade Union
League, which called at the White
House.
ITO destroy industrial laws for
women merely because the same laws
do not exist for men is to lower the
whole level of industry, and is the
same kind of thing we would have
been doing had we sought to deprive
men Of suffrage because women did
not have it," the committee told the
President. eve want an upward,
not a downward revision of women's
laws-and this can only be had by
specific measures to remove specific
determinations against women-not
blanket legislation which, in order to
help some women, strikes into the
very lives and livelihood of millions. :"
The committee delivered to the
President the declaration adopted bv
the Workingwomens conference held
in Washington last Sunday, which
sets forth the position of delegates
representative of many trades and
occupations all over the country, and
cites the legal authority which is the
basis of their contention as to the
effects of blanket legislation intro
duced by the National Woman's
party in nine state legislatures and
proposed for introduction in congress
also.
The committee was composed of

"If the executive committee ap-
pointed by the Chicago conference
makes it clear to the American pub
lie that it's intention is to carry out

it will perform a great service and
will stimulate interest in every quar-
ter.
"But if the executive committee
falls into the trap which is already
baited, and allows the impression to
prevail that it intends to flirt with

Something purchased away from

than home grown products, and that
is what woman in Winlock thought
last year. She purchased day-old
chicks from an outside poultryman
for IA cents each. They laid, during
the past year $50 eggs each. Last
wear she bought Washington Matched
chicks for 25 cents each and thew
laid 2O8 eggs each. Her profit over
the previous year was $1.22 per bird.

EMPLOYMENT
SCHEME MADE
PUBLIC BY i. S.
COMMISSION

WASHINGTON, d. c., March 20.
Large numbersof persons have been
made victims of fraudulent advertls-
ing for labor in connection with the
Muscle Shoals project near Flor
ence, Ala, it is said, in statement
issued today by the United States
Civil Service Commission.
1t is stated by the commission that
there has been brought to its atten-
ton recent advertising throughout
TIE country in which persons out of
work have been promised positions
at the Muscle Shoals project, condi-
toned upon their paying a registra-
ton fee of one dollar each. 1t is said
that large numbers of unemployed
men have responded, paying the re-
ouired registration fee and receiving
nothing in return. 1t is understood
that the matter is to be presented
to the department of justice for in
vestigation and possible prosecution.
The civil service commission states
that further operations at Muscle
Shoals depend upon action of con-
gress, and that no one can say at
this time whether the government
will resume the work. or whether it
will be conducted under private own
ership or contract. In any event, the
said. there is no justifi
cation for advertising for labor to be
at the project. If the gov
eminent undertakes to complete the
work such labor as may be necessary
will be secured in the usual way
through government agencies. 1t is
said, Furthermore, that it is certain
that no private person or company is
taking steps to secure labor for
Muscle Shoals in the present uncer-
tainty.
The Civil Service Commission
warns the public against the paying
of money in the hope of securing en-
ployment of Muscle Shoals.

4 PROMISE


BY Margaret Hall Scott
The World casts its burden on Labor
And most of its sorrow and care.
The heavy and terrible crosses
Are all for the toiler to bear:
But in spite of trouble and worry.
That shut out the sunshine today
There's promise of brightness tomorrow
Some gladness to tighten the way.
Unfavorable are the conditions
And tumults and conflicts abound
But organization gives promise
That some better way may be found;
The union Of labor learns wisdom
And testing its strength as it should,
Shall combine with worldwide endeavor
To overcome evil with good.
But there's promise still for improvement,
And courage must win in the fight,
Where the battle with wrong is raging,
There's victory promised for right;
And friends, we believe in that promise,
That boosts a man out of despair,
And gives him the strength that protects him
From the Greed that has placed him there.
