The Oreeonian contains n statement that a conference has heen held at the department of labor and Chief Deputy Gram announces that “ employment of women in hazardous occupations siu-li as saw and planing mills is not necessary at this time as thousands of men are still employed in clerical and other light positions." Hundreds o f women, many of them in comfortable “ coveralls" are employed in saw and planing mills and hox factories and getting two or three dollars a day for eight hours They are rendering valuable ami neeessary service in such employment at Salem, Silverton and all over the state where there are am of these branches of the lumber industry. If they like this kind of work and prefer it and arc- making good on the job what light lias the state labor department to bar them from such employment, or try to force them to do clerical work for which many o f them have not the necessary prepara- tion? At Salem young women are working in the lumber industry who were stenographers and clerks for the simple reason that they can make twice the wages arf patriotic war industry workers that they ever could get in the ‘ ‘ light positions" referred to. As to such employment being hazardous, it is no more ->0 for women than for men. and many a woman has had her fingers cut o ff or her hand mangled splitting wood or working a clothes wringer. Have we no longer a free country and is our boasted equal rights for women and men a myth? It would seem so, if pur labor officials have their way.
