NIGHT WORK
For Women in New York
Unlawful, Holds u. S.
Supreme Court

Washington.-The United States
supreme court has upheld the New
York state law which prohibits
women working nights.
The case arose when Buffalo res
taurant permitted a waitress to work
after 10 o'clock at night. The city
court upheld the law, and on appea
this position was maintained in the
several New York state courts.
Opponents of the law were conf
dent the supreme court would reverse
these decisions because it recently sci
aside the District of Columbia mini
mum wage law for women on the
ground that it interfered with the
right Of contract.
The supreme court, however, upheld
the right of the state, in the exercise
OF its police power, to regulate the
hours of labor for women as a means
of preserving and protecting the pub
lie health and welfare.
Associate Justice Sutherland, who
read the decision, pointed out that the
reply of the state to the contention
that the statute interfered with the
liberty of adult persons to make a
contract was that night work of the
kind prohibited seriously affected the
health of women, so threatened and
impaired their peculiar and natural
functions, and so exposed them to the
dangers and menaces incident to night
life, that the state felt impelled to
take cognizance Of the situation by
enacting the ntatute attacked, and
that in so doing it was clearly within
it's rights.
The court expressed the opinion
that sleep in the daytime, following
labor at night, is not as beneficial
as rest at night, especially in cities
subject to the disturbances incident
to modern life.
'The injurious. consequences of
night work were thought by the legis-
lature to bear more heavily against
women than men, and considering
their more delicate organism there
would seem to be good reasen for SO
thinking" said Justice Sutherland.

That southern California will en-,
