WHERE W0MEN BEAT MEN Mere Man Outclassed ns Hustlers In Heavy nnnd Work In the PhtlliiplnrN. You would not think that a woman could ever outwork a man when It comes to heavy road work, but such Is, never theless, the case In the Philippines. In the construction of tho Paoay-Cur-rlmoo road It Is recalled that at one time there were" approximately 600 women and girls employed dally. These feminine workers, receiving from 20 to 25 or 83 centavos per day, according to their strength nnd ability, are most efficient when materials for aubgrndc, surfacing or gravel and sand for concrete are to be carried a short distance. They tie up their skirts or "pandllng" to be less ham pered as they work and wield shovels, load, carry and empty their baskets with a zeal that outclasses the men. In the construction of subgrade, Paoay Currlmao road, it was necessary to haul material about one-half a kilometer at one point. This waa accomplished with women workers. Men loaded the baskets at the borrow pits. Baskets hold about 1.00 cu. m. and are carried on the head. On a short haul a woman will carry from a meter to a meter and a half of material per day. As may be Imagined there Ik connldor able talking done us the worl. progresses, especially In the afternoon, when the women begin to tire. Ignorance of the dialect may have caused the listener to misinterpret, but It Is said that the capa taces (men) use Home very forclblo argu ments to convince the ladles, that they should talk lefs and work more. On concrete work women are used to advantage carrying sand, gravel and wa ter. They are not Strung enough to mix concrete for any length of tlmo, so men are employed for that purpose.
