ECONOMIC STATUS
 0F WOMEN SOUGHT
Government Hopes to Find Her
 True Place in Industry

Washington, July 26 P)-Viewed
 in national perspective, woman's
 place in the onward sweep of indus | try is being analysed in a dozen special studies now in process of preparation by the womcn's bureau of the department of labor. Taken together, these studies
 form an enlightening commentary
 on the trend Of the times-away
 from a woman's world that centers
 in the home, toward civilization
 wherein economic pressure pre-
 vails upon women to become wage
 carners.
 | In behalf of the 5000. .000 work | ing women of the United States, | the women's bureau, only govern
 ment unit manned" entirely by
 women. keeps 40 highly-trained re-
 search specialists at work on field surveys, personal interviews, com- pilations and tabulation of data.
 Each report they make represents
 serious study. the result of many months of scientiticcally- directed effort. Only studies of national sig nificance. or those requested by in dividual states. are attempted. The laundry and the five and ten" have been found to bulk large
 in the national industrial scheme
 of womankind. Two of the most interesting studies under way con-
 cern them.
 Tn 29o laundries in 23 cities. 19,- 75S women workers were canvassed and it was found that PIT per cent of them were more than 40 years of age. One-fourth of them. ap-
 proximately the same per cent, were widowed. separated or divorced. Or 1900 who specifically answered the question of why they went to work, 91.S per cent replied necessity" ] Eighteen states were included in the five and ten' study titled
 "Women in Limited Price Depart ment Store Chains" It was learned that almost S5 per cent of the
 workers were very young. Another national trend is the
 slow but distinct industrial progress of the negro woman. While it was found that large groups of negro
 women still were in the unskillcd labor class considerable number had gone into machine operating Field workers found one negro re- ligious paper where all the work was done by women.
 Tn a type study of Philadelphia
 and the Lehigh valley, the wom- ems bureau found that the foreign
 born woman deserves great credit for the place she is carving for herself in American industry. Speaking little or no English with no factory experience. such women successfully seek and hold jobs. Of FLAG personally interviewed, well
 over half were married and livIG with their husbands.
 Each investigation brings more sharply to attention the married woman in industry and the bureau hones soon to be able to make q comprehensive study of that sub
 jcct.

May Call SpSsinn

Hartford, July 96 P)-Governor John H. Trumhull will call a special session of the General Assembly fof the reconsideration Of l,49$ Conncc~ ticut laws voided by an opinion of the supreme court of errors. if. upon his return to Connecticut. the gov ernor decides the special session IS necessary.
 Reached by telephone at Associd- ton Island, Ontario, where he had gone to attend a conference today Of officials of electrical companies con- trolled by the General Electric com- pany, Governor Trumbull was in- formed of the action of the supreme court at Bridgeport yesterday in the McCook case.
 Governor is Disturbed
 The governor was admittedly dis turbed by the news, no inklinE of which had reached him. He was unprepared to say definitely just what course he would follow upon his return to Hartford.
 ''The thing has come upon mo rather suddenly" said the governor over the telephone. Ut most Ccr- tainly has made great mess ot things If, when I return, I find it h necessary to call a special session of the General Assembly, l shall call such a session as soon as possible. If special session is necessary it appears to me at this time that the whole thing could be cleared up with the passage Of a single yalidat ing act. If it is necessary 10 recon sider every one of the laws separate ly, it will mean that the special seS- sion would be dragged out indefinite ly What course will be followed will be decided after I return 10 Hartford next week"
 Coming Home Monday
 Governor Trumbull said he eX- poets to reach Hartford either Mon day morning or at noon, depending whether he could make connection by way of Springfield, or whether it would be necessary to return by way of New York City. He arrived at Association Island this morning.
 Association Island is small island in Lake Ontario, leased by the General Electric company for the months of June and July, for the purpose of conferences of company officials. Governor Trumbull today will speak on the growth of the elec- tric business in the country. He expects to leave the island Sunday evening for Hartford.
 With reference to Governor Everett J. Lake it was simply d question of physical impossibility CT him to sign all bills submitted to him during the last week of the General Assembly," said Attorney Haryy W. Reynolds. executive score tary during the Lake administration today.
 During the last week there was an avalanche of bills dumped on him. and it was simply question of whether he was to act merely as rubber stamp, or whether he would give the bills his serious attention. Many of these bills were in their original form and he adopted course of carefully considering them at the expense of the possibility of raising question of unconstitution- ality because of the element of time in signing them.'

Clearing the calendar of the more
important criminal actions, federal
court Tuesday excused the jurors I'M
til Monday, April 20, and will spend
the time from now until then cOnsid-
ering a number of smaller cases, in
some of which the defendants have
entered pleas and some which have
not yet been arraigned.

Montana receiving sentences were:
Otto Kempendorf of Havre, charged
in an information and a grand jury
indictment on two counts of sale and
possession of Canadian liquor, was
given 60-day Jail sentence and a
fine of 500 on the first and a fine
of 500 and suspended four month
sentence on the second count. He was
placed on probation or four years.
A fine of $50 and 90-day suspend
ed sentence was meted out to George

"FARM RELIEF" ROW BE-
LIEVED TO BE INEVITABLE

Washington, April 18.-The senate
and house entrenched themselves for
farm relief fight today with the
prospect that the export debenture
proposal of he National Grange will
cause a situation reminiscent of the
controversy that broke over the equal
ization fee of the old McNary- Haugen
bill.
At the direction of its agriculture
committee, the senate received from
Chairman McNary a farm bill which
included provision for the use of
the debenture plan in connection with
expectation of crop surpluses. In the
house, the farm leaders opened the
relief debate by laying the ground
work for their opposition to this pro-
posal, which has not been endorsed by
President Hoover.
