Wage Boost For Millions of Women Seen In w L. B. Order
WASHINGTON, ID. C.-The

WASHINGTON, ID. C.-The
wages of several million wom-
EN- workers may be increased
as a result of a general order
issued by the War Labor
Board, allowing employers to
make wage or salary adjust
ments to equalize the wages of
women with those of men for
comparable quality and guam
tity of work without prior
board approval.
These adjustments must be
reported to the board, but
they can not be used to fur
nish the basis for an increase
i'm price ceilings.
This action of the labor board
is similar to the principle of equal
pay for equal work adopted by
the War Labor Board i'm the first
World War. Today's order follows
specific rulings made i'm recent
weeks covering several cases.
If an employer refuses the de-
mands of his women employees for
equal pay for comparable work,
and the women wish to do SO, they
may have the dispute sent to the
regional Office of the board for a
ruling. Since equal pay for equal
work is now the boards policy, it
would rule i'm favor of the women
workers, provided the work they
were doing was the same as that
performed by male workers.
The order on this ruling, called
General Order No. 10, read as fol-
lows:
Adjustments which equalize the
wage or salary rates paid to females
with the rates paid to males for COM
parable quality and quantity of work
performed, may be made without APP
prevail of the National Wr Labor
Board, provided that:
"Such adjustments are reported,
when made, to the Division of Review,
Analysis and Research of the Ma
tional War Labor Board together
with sufficient information to show
that they are in accordance with the
policy referred to above;
"Sch adjustments shall be sub
