The working woman has made her debut as a problem in the present ses-| slon of Congress with the introduction of a resolution providing for a consti- tutional amendment empowering Con- gress to establish uniform labor laws for women and children. Representative Dallinger, Republican, Massachusetts, author of the resolution, declared his sole purpose in the amend- ment is to obtain uniform labor laws, and that the only reason he confined his amendment to laws pertaining to women and children is that working men have always had their well organ- Ized unions through which they have been able to protect themselves against unfair working conditions. Two Measures in Conflict. Concomitant with this proposal is another proposed constitutional amend- ment dealing with the equal rights | proposition. This, in direct o) ition to Dallinger’s bill, would pre wfthn SOCIET Y. any legislation favoring or discriminat- ing against women would be unconsti- tutional. The bill was introduced in both houses last session (in the Senate by Vice President-elect Curtis) and is now in the judiclary committees of both houses, awaiting hearings. ‘The National Woman's Party, which has for its purpose, now that woman's suffrage has been secured, the passage of the equal rights amendment, will fight Dallinger's amendment, though it would give its hearty support to the proposal if the amendment were changed to read “uniform hours and conditions of labor,” omitting all ref- erence to women. Dallinger's proposal is_the outgrowth of a conference of all Representatives from Massachusetts a few weeks ago. Senator Dzllinger's Statement. “Our Siate has been hard hit eco- | the stringent labor laws said Dallinger. “Textile been moving out of Massa- We Specialize in chusetts in great numbers to open up in Southern States, where the restric~ tive labor laws are not so strict.” “Besides the economic inequality that results from different State laws, there is the humanitarian aspect. States with low standards that are inimical to the health of the working women should be forced by Federal legislation to make proper provisions.” Representative Dallinger has intimat- ed that he would gladly change the wording of his proposed amendment, if he thought he could secure its passage more easily without the discrimination in favor of women. ‘The Woman's Party is expecting to have a hearing before the House judici- ary committee sometime before the hol- idays, and hopes to place its case before the Senate committee some- time in_Janua: COLUMBIA'RD. ar18 ST OPPOSITE AMRASSADOR.
