DECREASE IN NUMBER
OF WOMEN EMPLOYED

Contrary to popular opinion, the
United States Women's Bureau says
there were less women employed in
1920 than in 1910 The bureau bases
this statement on a study Of the cen.
sus statistics.
I'm continental United States s..
64s,511 women 10 years OF age and
ever were gainfuIly occupied on Jan.
uary 1, 1920" says the bureau. 'This
number represents an actual Increase
since 1910 Of nearly half million,
but If the increase in population is Ia
ken into consideration the proportion
of all women 10 years Of age and over
gainfully occupied decreased from
2s.4 per cent in 1910 to eli per cent
in 1920.
There was a decrease in the num-
Der of women employed as servants,
as farm laborers, as dressmakers and
as milliners.
"On the whole, the great change
seems to have been in a decrease
among women working in or for the
home and in personal service occupa
tions. and a corresponding increase in
clerical and allied occupations, in
teaching and in nursing, all of which
have been women-employing occupa.
tions, for many decades. but have not
before reached such numerical impoT
tance," 1t stated.

THE LABEL
IN SPRING CLOTHES

While the Union Label Department
OF the A. F. Of L. Is campaigning for
a greater demand for the Union La
bel, Shop Card and Button, 1t would
not be amiss to give that branch a
little cooperation by demanding the
label in Aberdeen and Hoquiam. Prac-
tica1ly every article Of clothing or
furnishings for the home can now be
had that bear the label.
IN Just few more weeks spring
will be here and many Of us will order
new suits Of clothes. About two
years ago the tailors we're locked out
by the Master Tailors of the Harbor,
and since that time only few shops
have been able to furnish the label In
suits made locally.
II customers will start calling for
the label when ordering suits, and
will not order unless the label can be
furnished, 1t win only be a matter Of
short time until every shop on the
Harbor will supply it. The tailorf
have always been glad of chance to
help the rest Of the labor movement
Why not give them more considera,
ton? Think it over, readers, and let
your best judgment guide your dollar
The following tailor shops now
have the label: R. Sturm, 2219 Simp-
son avenue; Charles Linwood, 21O
Eighth street, and Kilhimin's, on.
near Eighth. all Of Hoquiam.

Since 1917 importation of opium
into China is prohibited. Surrepti-
tiously, however, much opium comes
from Calcutta, Hongkong, Tonquin
and Macao. Opium is openly sold in
the foreign settlement of Shanghai.
Thus it is not China but the great ma
tions Of Europe that are principally
responsible for the opium and mar.
cotic traffic, a traffic that threatens
to undermine the whole world and
bring on the humiliation of all hui
manity unless PROMPTLY taken In
hand and put an end to.
