Hundreds of Soldiers
"Omaha", has become a new word

guests of the canteen workers, the
motor corps and enjoyed the din
ners and hospitality of the hotels,
the motion picture houses, the
theaters and felt that "mid-western"
hospitality. , '
Thus Omaha began to take on a
new importance. Some of the
wounded soldiers who have been
entertained from 3:30 until 1:30 p.
m. looked unto Omaha as a "mid
western grazing city." Actually one
boy, after being shown the city frotp
one part to the other, said in
amazement: "But the cowboys and

Long Work Days
Detrimental to
Health
All States Urged to Place
Industries On the Basis
Of Eight-Hour Dar
A mass of evidence is available
both in this country and in Europe
indicating the serious effects of long
Working hours upon the health of
women. This evidence, gathered
for the most part byi expert govern
ment investigators, has been recog
nized by the supreme court of the
United States as justifying the use
by the several states of their police
power to enforce legislation limiting
hours of work. The supreme court,
in a brief presented to an Oregon
court, which led to a decision declar
ing constitutional a law of that state
limiting hours of labor, holds that
"health is the foundation of the state.
No nation can progress if its work
ers are crippled by continuous over
exertion. The loss of human energy
due to excessive workine hours is a
national loss and must inevitably re
sult in lowering the nation s oros-
perity."
In the United States, as a whole, a
growing tendency exists toward a
shorter working day. The world
experience of the evil effects of over
work upon the general welfare has
led the majority of the states of the
union to enact laws limiting the
hours of women's employment Only
six of the 48 states have Jailed to
place some limitation upon the
length of the working day of women.
In 20 of the states the hours of work
have been limited to eight or nine. .-,
But in those. states which have
not adopted this important measure
erf protection for the health of their
citizens, abnormally long hours of
employment for women is made
possible. In a survey of hours and
working conditions for women in
one such state recently made by
the women in industry service,
United States Department of La
bor, it was found that in 30 per
cent of the establishments investi
gated the regular working day,
withoutOvertime, was 10 hours or
more for 2,817 (or 23 per cent) of
the women employed in the shops
visited. Specific instances of over
time legally possible in this state
showed women working as long as
65 hours in a week in one factory;
73 hours in one cannery; 84 hours
in another; 75 hours and a seven
day week in one manufacturing
plant; and 88 hours and 40 minutes
in an establishment manufacturing
automobile parts.
With the growing complexity of
the problem of women's employ
ment and with the increase in their
numbers in industry, it is becoming
increasingly important that state
departments of labor should be
equipped to enforce laws regulat
ing their employment, as well as
to study their needs and observe
new conditions.
With the purpose of accomplish
ing this, the women in industry
service is recommending that worn1
en should be placed in responsible
positions as members of industrial
boards, or as chiefs of divisions di
rectly responsible to the boards, or
to the labor commissioner.
New problems of women workers
as developed by the war will be dis
cussed t the sixth biennial conven
tion of the National Woman's Trade
Union league, to be held in Phila
delphia next June.
