Price, Post Office. TEN-HOUR LAW For Women Is Ignored In South Washington.—The Mississippi law that limits the work day for women to 10 hours is 33 per cent ineffective according to a study of working con ditions in that state by the bureau of labor statistics. "Over one-third of the women em ployed in the plants surveyed were expected to put in a regular working day longer than 10 hours," tiie report states. The weekly wage for white women in the plants visited averaged $8.60 and negro women' averaged $5.75 and $5.90. "In resepct to plant conditions, also, there was much to be desired. Too many plants were reported with no washing facilities, or with equipment that was inadequate, with no towels In not far from one-fourth of the establishments common drinking cups were found, while in others no cups were provided. Toilet room conditions were frequently most unsatisfactory and in a number of cases the equip ment was inadequate." POLISH DICTATOR Enforces Policy of Mussolini London, England.—Marshal Pilsud ski', Polish dictator, has gagged free press, as has Mussolini in Italy and Horthy in Hungary, according to a correspondent of the Daily Herald, owned by organized labor. Two new projected press decrees are announced for Poland which bear a striking resemblance to those under which Hungarian and Italian liberties are stifled. Any printed statements "which would harm the state" are penalized. If any comment considered as "insulting" is published about Marshal Pilsudski, any army general or high civil official, the offender may be arrested without legal formality and punshiment inflicted within one week. Anyone publishing a paper must apply to the authorities for permis sion.

FAKE WAGE BOOST Rejected By San Francisco Building Unionists San Francisco.—Organized build ing craftsmen reject a wage award of a so-called impartial wage board. The increase is a "sop," say the unionists, who point to its approval by the anti-union Industrial Associa tion. Organized Labor, official paper of the building craftsmen, refers to its prediction that the board lacked the courage to raise wages to the stand ards of other cities. "There *is no substitute for the union," says the labor paper. "That is emphasized by the decision. In all other cities of the country wages of building mechanics a"e from $1 to $3 per day more than in San Francisco "The high wages in other cities were established by the unions through collective bargaining with employers. In San Francisco the right of collective bargaining is de nied the workers through the impar tial wage bo^rd and the Industrial Association. ... ~v*% "In other large cities merchants are enjoying great prosperity as tht result of high wages secured through collective bargaining.
