850,000 Japanese Women Work
at Average Daily Wage of Ten
to Twenty Cents for a
Twelve Hour Day.
Tl’f*ve urc more women In Industry
In Japan than there nre men, accord
to a statement recently made by the
War Work Council of the Young Wo
men's Christian Association.
The world war has brought 8fiO,OOU
women and girls Into the dully grind
of industry accord'ng to this state-
ment ; HO,000 of them little girls- 11.de.
fifteen years of ago who work tv,e:y<
hours at a wage of ten to twenty cent-
a day, that the world may have silk
dresses and munitions.
In Tokyo alone, n city of two ami
one-half million people, there are lot)
000 women employed in sixty-two in
dustries and businesses varying I'min
work ns telephone operators, clerks,
stenographers and bookkeepers to
work in silk and other sorts of far
torlcs and domestic work.
Each year thousands of these wo
men go back to their homes IP the'
country, broken In health and victim 1
of tuberculosis because of the pnoi
conditions .tm’.er which they work and
live. They are housed in doiinltoriv-
in 1 he factory compound. These dornu
lories arc frequently unsanitary Xi“
girls work long hours, have no recre
ation and on finishing their long day
go Immediately to hod, oftentimes a
bed which a girl who works at night
lias been sleeping In- all day.
As part of its world service for wo
men. the Young Women’s Christian
Association plans to build dormitories
in manufacturing towns where girls
may live cheaply under healthful
physical and social conditions, to semi
out secretaries who cun introduce rec
reation into the factory compound and
direct games and social life.
Tills is done with the co-operation
of the factories managers and pro
prietors. One of the most influential
of these Is Mrs. Suzuki, the most
prominent woman manufacturer In
Japan, who Is owner and manager of a
firm which exported $1 I.(K)o.imm) worth
of bean oil to America last year.
Kecently Mrs. Suzuki decided to
employ one thousand women In her
offices She could not find enough
well trained ones so she established
a permanent school where Jnpane.si
girls may he trained to enter the bust
ness world. The greatest dangm
ahead of Japan, she says, Is In it-
growing materialism, and Japan h
greatest need, the development of he:
women.
“The Car of the Hour”
*
T3UYING a Chevrolet Car is very mnch
like buying a high-grade first mort
gage bond. Both the principal and invest
ment are protected by a company that has
never failed to meet its obligations.
Each ~ar that is produced by this factory
mus satisfy two groups of" people—our
owners and ourselves, In daily service
each car must justify its reputation and
faith that has beeu placed in it. Each car
must he worthy of every Chevrolet tradi
tion or it cannot bear the Chevrolet name
plate.
Such, in brief, is a simple, straight for
ward statement of the Chevrolet policy, It
is by no means original or spectacular. But
it affirms that all Chevrolet cars are honest
cars and we gladly share the responsibility
of ownership.
