Neighbors' shopping leagues are an
other interesting experiment. The
stay at home woman is being encour-
aged to play the part of good neigh
Dor to women in the same street who
have to go to work.
Wartime Nurseries
Women who have left their homes
for work in war time are being re-
lieved Of another of their major do
nestle responsibilities. The Board of
Education and the Ministry of Health
have combined to extend the number
of war time nurseries for children
under five years of age.
A large number of these nurseries
already exist. They were developed
early last year when the demand for
women's work in war factories be-
came imperative.
The two ministries are now actively
concerned to provide nurseries for the
! "under fives" of all.women in employ
ment whether engaged directly upon
| war work or in other full time occu-
pations. Local authorities get hun
dred per cent grant from the Ex-
chequer to establish war time nur-
series and they are being set up in
every area.
| These nurseries are for the most
! part open from IL to Is hours day,
for all children up to the age of five.
Mothers who leave their children at
these full-time nurseries pay one shill-
ing day including meals.
There are also part-time nurseries,
open for the normal nursery-school
hours for children aged two to five
Here the charge is Cd day includ-
ing a midday meal. Teachers as well
as properly qualified nurses take
charge Of the infants.
Coupons for the Unborn
Here is another illustration of fexi-
bility and intelligent administration of
the clothes rationing scheme as it af-
fects mothers. The Ministry Of
Health, prompted by working wom-
ems organizations, has agreed that q
special issue Of clothing coupons shall
be made to expectant mothers to en-
able them to buy materials to make
garments for their babies.
Fifty coupons will be issued to all
expectant mother on production of a
certificate from a doctor or midwife
booked to attend the birth.
The coupons may be obtained as
early as the sixth prenatal month.
Where a sure diagnosis of twins is
possible a double set of coupons will
be made available. Maternity and
child welfare authorities are under
taking the administration of this
scheme as well as Of the wartime
nurseries for under fves.

Longshoremen's Union
Wins Increased Wages

New York, N. Y.-The international
Longshoremen's Association, AFL af-
filiate, and operators of deep sea
shipping reached terms for new
working agreement calling for an in
crease in the hourly wage for dock
workers of ten cents, and in the over
time rate of Is cents, Joseph P. Ryan,
president of the liza, announced.
The new scale for longshoremen
will be $1.20 per hour with the over
time pay raised to $1.SO hourly.
Checkers wages will be increased
from $3.50 to 1925 per day Mr.. Ryan
said the new contract would affect
$4,000 longshoremen in ports from
Portland, Me-, to Hampton Roads, Va
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1941-10-09

was the only belligerent country
where bread was not rationed. "And
it is good bread, too" he added.
The remark is supported by con-
trast in standards of life passed TO
me by colleagues in the secretariat Of
the International Federation of Trade
Unions. 1t is based upon a compari-
son Of the rationing Of clothing in
Britain with the scheme in operation
in Germany since 1889.
Under the German scheme there is
an allowance of 100 coupons for
clothing per person per annum com
pared with the British allowance Of
S6 coupons.
In Britain the &c coupons will pro-
cure one suit Of clothes, one overcoat,
two shirts each with two collars, two
pairs of socks and twelve handker-
chiefs.
The German rations will secure, in
stead of a whole suit, one pair of
| trousers, one overcoat, one shirt with
out collars, no socks, and five hand
| kerchiefs. 1t has to be borne in mind
moreover, that in Britain these arti-
cles Of clothing will be of real wool
and real linen, but in Germany they
will be ersatZ products.
Again, in Britain the coupons en-
title the holder to two pairs Of shoes
if an overcoat is not required-and
they will be of real leather. A Ger
man on the other hand, instead of his
overcoat-which in any case he has
had to forego for two or three years
past-is entitled only to one pair Of
shoes, and he does not get leather
shoes, but a product of wood and
ersatz leather-and in buying them
must hand over his old pair.
That comparison, | think, can be
left to speak for itself.
"Staggered" Shopping
Women in war factories found il
difficult to do their shopping because
hours Of work confiicted with the
hours when the shops are open. This
matter is important from the indus
trial viewpoint because it leads to &
certain amount of dissatisfaction anc
hardship, and a contented worker is
the best worker.
In some districts efforts are being
made to adjust local opening ant
closing of shops by consultation with
representatives Of the workers tc
meet the needs of women in this po
sition. Arrangements are also being
considered by which working hours
will be adjusted on some days of the
week to permit women in factories tt
go out with their market baskets.
A regular system is also being de
veloped by which one or more womer
may be commissioned to shop for theil
workmates. Experiments are being
made under the auspices of the Min
istry of Labor whereby voluntary or
ganizations will collect women fac
tory workers shopping lists and mar
ket baskets and take them back to the
factory with the shopping completed
before the women leave for home.

Nations S Defenses
Mendced By Low
PdY For Women
Women's Bureau Director Is
Hedrd At San Francisco
Conference

Sdn francisco (lLNS ).-Our inner
defenses are menaced wherever and
whenever women workers pay en-
velopes are kept unduly slim through
wage-reduction factors, Mary Ander-
son, director of the Women's Bureau,
U. S. Department of Labor empha-
sized here in a talk at the conference
on industrial problems sponsored by
the National Catholic Welfare Con-
ference.
Applying the "Golden State" label
to California for it's progressive min
imum wage law for women (enacted
in 1929, Miss Anderson further laud-
ed the recent efforts of local forces to
have adjustments made in the regu-
lations, to meet current needs and to
guarantee all women workers in the
state a fair living wage.
Pay-Cutting Factors Outlined
In general women's wage-earning
status tends to be undermined by
various factors, she said. AS outlined
by her these include: The old but still
lingering pin-money theory, and the
double wage standard for the two
sexes; certain inadequacies in the
| legal safeguards to womens wages as
| set up by some states and lack o1
such protection in other states; ris.
ing costs of living due to emergency
conditions; growing unemployment as
a result of defense priorities in Ger.
tain consumer goods industries, which
are large employers of women.
Helpful Measures Cited
Definitely established means fol
safeguarding women's wages were
discussed by the director of the
Women's Bureau. This Fedora
agency, she pointed out, was created
by Congress during the last Worlt
War to promote the welfare and eff
ficiency of women workers, and ha:
carried on such program at every
turn of the economic cycle since then
"Women's Bureau studies prove tht
vast majority of women workers whe
enter the labor force do so for tn,
hood and in many instances to sup
port dependents wholly or partially,
Miss Anderson declared.
Other measures which she cited a.
helpful to women as wage Garner
were adequate training for jobs; tn
sound wage policies of many employ
ers; such laws as the Federal Fai
Labor Standards Act and state wag
laws that set a floor to wages; estab
lishment of fair wage standards fo
the more experienced and skille'
women by means of collective bar
gaining; and the backing of an in
formed public opinion in the improve
ment of wage levels when necessary
Basic Policies Urged
Two fundamental policies were rec
commended for sound approach t.
women's wage problems.
"First, wage rates should be base
on occupation and not on sex or rae
of the worker. The standard of wage
prevailing for men should not be low
cred where women are employed.
"Secondly, fair wages should b
paid, commensurate with the service
rendered, and based on costs of living
Thus wage rates should be revise
periodically and adjusted to marke
or substantial rises in cost of living.
