Machine Age Changes Life.
The amount of gainful work done
by women at home has decreased
steadily, while the amount of their
gainful work outside the home has
increased. At the beginning of the
18th century women still were spin
ming at home, but the yarn was
brought for weaving to large rooms
where looms were in use. The ear
lest cotton mill was established in
1914, and thereafter weaving be-
came factory occupation.
. In 1881 there were $4,000 women
employed in various cotton factories
in the United States. By the middle
of the century, the sewing machine
came into effective use, usually OPP
Grated by women.

Women's Bureau Of Labor Department Is Years Old;
Busy With Present and Postwar Needs Of Workers
Agency Watches Over
Rights and Security
OF Eighteen Million
Bye. v. PETERS

Eighteen and a half million
women are now working for
wages, mostly in jobs essential
to war. Some five million of
these are new to the labor mar
kets; they have gone into fac
tories and fields since 1910, when
the nation began to buckle down
for the great conflict. All in all,
women have been doing a mag
nificent job. No task has been
too dirty, or dangerous or diff
cult; they have cheerfully ac-
cepted all discomforts and haz-
ards.
In World War I, when, as now,
millions of women were called upon
to replace men in thousand occu-
pations, the department of labor be-
came interested in the special needs
and problems of working women.
In 1920 permanent subdivision, the
Women's bureau, was established,
which superseded the temporary
Woman in Industry Service, set up
in 1917.
Miss Mary Anderson, director of
the war agency, was appointed head
of the Women's Bureau. After
developing the Bureau to its pres
ent impressive status, she retired
last June at the age of II, with
rs years of service to working wom-
en- accomplished.
Under the guidance of Miss An
derson, the bureau made intensive
study of conditions and problems of
women workers in various types of
employment-professional, business,
industrial and domestic. She was
responsible for calling two impor-
tant conferences of women in indus
try, in 1923 and 1886, attended by
representatives of all important
women's organizations. The princi-
pies she advocated were:
l. Complete equality of opportu-
nifty for men and women on the basis
Of their individual merit, skill and
experience.
2. Wage rates based on job con-
tent without regard to sex.
3. Establishing of precise and OBJ
jective standards for determining
job content as basis for determin-
ing wage rates.
In 1918 there were eight and a
half million women workers. In the

Beavers Shove Sack Another Notch
Ducks Mark Up Shutout for Fourth Win in Five

CBy Associated Pressl

Hearts of baseball fans in Beaver town beat easier today as Portland continued it's return to winning form after a two-week losing streak and stretched it's Pacific Coast League lead to three and a half games.
 The Beavers, overcoming the double handicap of injuries and playing on the home field of the challenging Rainiers, shut out Seattle last night for their fourth victory in five starts.
 Portland's 50 victory was never in doubt after the first part of the sixth inning, as Roy Helser pitched flawless five-hit ball behind the early five-run lead to which his mates spotted him.

 Okinawa based planes patroling Korean waters and submarines in the southwest Pacific were finding poor hunting for Japa- nese ships. The reason was indi- cated in a report of southwest Pacific air operations, which in the first five months of this year sank 2,117,482 tons of shipping, and added five more vessels yesterday. Since January 1, they have also destroyed 1920 planes and dropped 10000 tons of bombs in support of ground operations.
 The initial invasion of Okinawa alone involved $7,800,000,000 worth of U. s. ships using a billion dol lars worth of planes and supplies.

 SBill Voiselles surprising form re- versal had baseball tongues wag- ging today as the New York Giants continued to drop back toward the pack in the National League.
 All was serene in Mel Ott's camp when Big Bill from Ninety Six, S.. C.. reeled off eight successive mound triuinphs, but since Voiselle was belted out in Cincinnati 10 days ago, the New Workers have fal- tered
 It looked as though Voiselle was about to register his initial victory of the first western jaunt last night but the St. Louis Cardinals spurted for three in the last of the ninth to tip the score in their favor, 4-3
 The ace righthander held a 3-l lead going into the ninth at Sports mans Park, and had given up one mere run when a severe wind and rain storm interrupted play for al- most an hour.
 When Voiselle again took the hill, Ray Sanders greeted him with aes score-tying single and Whitey Kurowski tripled to win the game for Reliefer Harry Brecheen. : Bucky Walters recovered from a shaky start by going l3 innings for Cincinnati to beat Brooklyn, b-3. Pittsburgh, which took over second place by 6-5 shade over Philadelphia, holds three-percent- hge point edge on the Cards and Brooks, who are tied for third.
 Chicago's tilt with Boston was washed out in the fifth before the Braves could make it legal, with Mort Cooper holding a 5-l edge at the time.
 New York's Yankees greeted Cleveland like long lost relatives iafter a tough series with Detroit land pummeled the Indians, 9-2, ibehind Floyd Bevens five-hltter. sDetroit dropped two. full games Ibehind the Tanks by lowing to IBoston, 6-4 when Walt Wilson and Il8-year- Bill Pierce walked in 1.-two runs with the bases loaded Washington had the same trouble swhen Walt Holborow passed three sChicago batters in succession to hand the White Sox an l1-9 de- lcision in the eleventh.
 Sig Jakucki's three-hit, 40, white wash of Philadelphia for St. Louis was the finest job of the day and the Brownie hurler helped his own cause with triple that started the scoring.

0Idfim CTS Disappointed When Two Gangs of Fire
 men Play Sissy" Game

Capt. Jim Orme and his Volin- teer Fire Company No. 1 baseball team wen out by a lone run last night in a grudge game against Joe Johnston and his team of smoke -eaters from Company No. ?, with a final count of II to 10, when the game was called during the last half of the fifth inning on account of a rain shower, and the two teams retired to the side lines to finish off the beer.
 "Nutsl' said the oldtimers when they took their seats and saw the players warming up with a soft ball instead of the regulation base ball. And when they took a second look and saw the diamond shrunk to peanut size, they again re- marked "Aw nuts" and the rugged game got off to a dizzy start with Company 2 at bat, Minard Mill refereeing with the aid of a three foot telescope, and William Franks as ex-officio referee and treasurer of the Elks Lodge, guarding the beer Arnot Henderson was base umpire
 Fuzzy fingers, spawned legs and broken wind permitted the players to introduce some new plays and improve on some old ones, and trick curves-up, over and spiraling behind the plate-kept even the catchers guessing.
 Line-ups
 Lineup for the victors: Red Shaw, catcher; Howard Dilg, pitcher; Gene Kristen, first base; John Morrison; second base; Joe Werner, third base; Herman Porter, left field; Dewey Baker, center field; Doc Sweeney, right field; Jim Orme, shortstop.
 For doomed Company No. 2, the lineup jellied into: Leonard Holm quist, pitcher; Spike MacLean. catcher: Chester McKinnon, first base; Bud Walker, second base; Joe Sadler, third base; Roy Noland, left field; Guy Gaudet, center field; Joe Johnston, right field; Earl Hunter, shortstop.
 Kristen got to first, and Spike MacLean hit the second ball pitched for a base hit, as the game got under way, but both went out on a double play.
 Earl Hunter scored the first run, detouring around Red Shaw when he stumbled and did a swan-dive.
 Home Runs
 Company No. l scored three runs in their turn at bat, two homers hung up by Morrison, who brought in Kristen ahead of him, and by Capt. Orme Oh the first ball pitched to him, making the score 3 to l at the end of the first
 Umpire Mill came in for hoots and jeers in the first half of the second, when he ruled a foul on MacLean with the bases loaded. Spike hit a long one on the next throw, scoring Nolan and Holm- quist and tying the score, 3 to 3, while Johnston and MacLean came in on Sadler's single, ending the half at to 3.
 As Company No. returned to the plate, Baker and Shaw scored, leveling off the scoreboard, to 5, and ending the second inning.
 With Company No. 3 up at the first of the third, Bud Walker led off with clean home run, tipping the score 6 to 5 in favor of his team, for the second half batters to shoot at. And shoot they did, as the beer baskets contents dried up, tying the score when Orme came in on Porter's single, and gaining a tWo-run lead when Werner and Baker came home on Olson's hit
