The committee presenting the reso lution nirainst married women working in public offices, said during the de pression there is a scurf ity of employ ment in all lines of business. 'ilnnv of these employed women do not realize that their retaining these jobs is causine hardship. . . . Others do not enre anvway; if they can hold down a 'job' and get the money, de spite the fact that some little child is; against all the rights of pure and simple honesty, deprived of sufficient food to keen them from being just plain HUNGlty." . The report continued: "We find there are many tnnrried women in, what might be termed 'dual employ ment," family employment, or what you will, with the county, city, and water board, as well as in banks, of fice and mercantile establishments of the city. "Some of them are even holding down two or more jobs. This wo be lieve is a direct disregard for the rights of humanity under our Ameri can civilization and think it is high time that vigorous action be taken by society In general to remedy this evil. ' Their vote is termed "a resolution of necessity" and signed by Jj. O. Bwon ger, president of the council, and W. It. Armstrong. Officers for the coming six months were elected as follows: L.

Barnard said Thursday there would be a meeting of the county court Monday to consider the question. In 'most instances, married women employed by the various county of fices are highly skilled persons, par ticularly competent to do the work lor which tney are empioyeri, jtorn ard. lie pointed out it vould be vir tually impossible to go out and find other people to do this work at the same cost since, salaries paid are not high. "The county court has tin direct authority over the employment of persons In the various offices, other than to refuse, to O. K. bills for their employment," Judge Harnard said. "The court does not assume the re anonslhillty of the various offices, nince those In charge of them are elected by the people and are re sponsible to the people," alasks.
