The use of women as collectors is a war measure and at present of- fers the only means of maintaining service. They are being used on Troost Avenue trailers. Their pay is the same as men's. They are not nor will not be used to replace men, but are only added to enable us to get out the trailers. The alarming labor shortage has caused the govern- ment to issue its new draft regu- lations, which mean work or fight y man in the draft age not You have seen them for the past for every week as they received their platform "0W engaged in what the regula- i ; aie Fi : tions term a war useful occupa- instruction.

The above advertisement of the Kansas City Railways Company, taken from the Kansas City Post of May 25, proves that Seattle is only one of the many other cities experiencing difficulty in keeping up full standard street car service because of a lack of labor. To fill up the MAN SHORT- AGE there the Kansas City lines are employing women. The point is that the shortage exists. Seattle is experiencing it, so are Kansas City, Detroit, Philadelphia, New York and other cities.’ It is the common problem of all street railways at the present time.
