THE 'OREGON DAILY . JOURNAL, PORTLAND, THURSDAY. JULY 17, 1919. IDA II TARBELL IS , PORTLAND VISITOR Koted Writer Has Decided Views - on Domestic Service Problem . French Women Lauded. Miss Ida M. Tarbell, fresh from at tending the peace conference at Paris, arrived at the Portland hotel this morning and is trying to rest up today from a hard Journey, so she can speak at the Gladstone Chautau qua tonight on the League of Na tions. ' Miss Tarbell was disinclined to dis cuss the. subject Informally because of her meeUng tonight, but she exprensed the belief that after the usual debate ' Is ended it will be found that the treaty. "with the leagued Ma left intact, will have been fully ratified by. the senate. FAMOUS AS "WHITES Miss Tarbell won her first renown many years ago by her articles in Mc Clure's nkagasins exposing the methods f , the Standard Oil .company. Since then her 1 writings .- bae appeared in many periodicals and her Investigations into social and economic conditions nave made ber much sought after as a lec turer." Among the avenues of investiga tion that she has long followed are housing conditions, domestic service and juvenile delinquency, , - r "The average woman employer is very ignorant of the social and economic question and her duty as to employ ment." declared Miss Tarbell, "and un til she is sufficiently educated inhat side of it, she - is going to handle the domestic service question in an Ignorant, selfish and vulgar fashion. " '' ,. SBBVAWT IDEA WKOSO "She has yet, to learn, to appreciate that employes, are human, beings ; with whom she associates.' She regards them ss servants te whom she is entitled be cause shs can pay for them. She has got to get upon a basis of intelligent, "cooperative service. r'- v '-.'- "I hope women are going to have enough intelligence and r realisation of the problem and enough' consciousness of their social sand economic obligation , to put the domestic' service problem on , a professional basis: ' The trouble now is that worn, employing domestics in their households do not treat that work as a trade, It Is Irregular. There are no standards of service as .to employ ment or hours and conditions. There is that ' social - stigma that regards the employe as a mental. - ' , IP TO WOatElT THEMSELTES , 1 "It is jup to the women ihemselves to solve the problem. Housework must be treated as". -a? high grade trade r with recognised hours and conditions. ' When we get it on k high grade trade basis and people j are trained for it. and ' the women who employs recognises her obli gation Just as any other employer does, and' when, she recognizes that she has got to be a skilled manager just as men. in factory and store, we will get it on a basis for which there shall be some hope; But we 'will not have any success until we do this. ' ':...:.,'.' '.V' "The solution, of this problem is a re sponsibility the woman employer has no right to shirk. Women have shirked it in a perfectly shocking way. They shirk it because they have not been trained to see. ' They are .slaves to an ignorant lot of old traditions and prejudices., . BETTEB TBAIXIJKJ SEEDJSb "The employes must be better trained". They must learn to erijoy their - work.. The character of the employe herself presents another one of the big prob- Jems. - She is . often impudent, she de spises her work, she is unskilled, and GAMS .18 IBS. TAKING TAHLAC A. M. Erskine Relieved of Rheu matism Other Treatments Had Failed. "I have not only ; been completely relieved of a bad case of rheumatism by taking the Tanlac treatment, but have also gained 18 pounds in weight, so you may- know by that what I think of the medicine," said A. M. Erskine, of 6130 84th street, southeast, Portland, Or., to a Tanlac representative recently, Mr. Erskine is employed by the North- : west Steel and Shipbuilding" company. "I "began to suffer with rheumatism about ten months ago." continued Mr. Erskine. I was in Vancouver at the time,, helping tor build the Standlfer Shipbuilding plant, and X first noticed it In my left knee. . The pain felt more like neuralgia V than, anything else, hut it kept getting worse all the . time and "finally shifted from my knee to my:, hip and at times -1 would have - it-In my. back and then in the muscles of the calf of my leg. That part of my leg seemed to be troubled the most, and the muscles just felt all the time like the skin had been torn and like a hot mustard piaster had been put on the spot. ' At times, I also suffered with sharpC shooting " pains - that would run . up and down my legs and I just couldn't walk any 'distance without, my leg giv- .. ing out entirely. When .this would hap pen I would just have to stop and rest , and sometimes the pain would be so -awfully bad it looked like it would cut off my breath. Sometimes about the only . . wgy X could get any rest at nights would be to use hot applications and I . suf fered such agony for eight months and . got In such bad shape that X fell off in weight ' from ; H5 pounds down : to ISO pounds, and "while I kept at work. - T vu ftafnlv: In m. tukA mrv aiul wauM feel all : fagged out when I would get -home in the evenings. I took different . treatments and medicines but I might Just as well have taken so much drink ing water for all tho relief, I got. 1 had been reading so much about Tanlac and what it was doing for others. that I decided .to try it and I hadn't been taxing tne Taniae treatment long until I commenced to feel better, so I : kept it up and the treatment,. relieved me of my rheumatism entirely. I not . only got rid of the rheumatism but got back all the weight" I had lost and three fine every da noand never have that wabm jui' : ss sW faalinv - - a-. trouble e. iam certainly glad to give this statement for the sake of others that are suffering with rheumatism, be cause I know what Tanlac .has done In my case.

Adv. . , you are not going to get any-response out of people who despise their work, : , Previous to her work at the peace con ference Miss Tarbell made an Intensive study ef reconstruction work in France for the lied Cross magazines She speaks highly of ; the way the French women are .taking hold of the . reconstruction of the devastated war areas with undi minished courage 'and cheerfulness. . :f "Women of all classes. totn peasant and aristocracy, those who were nurses and established hospitals and have done all kinds of the hardest kind of service, are turning to reconstruction tasks in the devastated" regions and working night and day under conditions almost as bad as those of the war, she said. '"Everything Is stripped and there is nothing to do with. , ' TITLED WOM AIT LIT ES ITS CATS "The women of the " aristocracy are living In huts. - I found one woman liv ing in a quarry, a woman with a title who owned f many ? large - estates. - .
