Acting Commissioner McNlchols an nounced that the principal aims of the Department of Labor and Industry will be to co-operate with employers and employes, to prevent employ ment of women and children during too long work periods or at unsuit able tasks; to prevent excessive labor turnover; to aid in finding suitable jobs for returned disabled and able bodied soldiers ant! sailors; to keep industrial conditions stabilized throughout the state and to meet promptly through the Emergency Public Works of the state any tend ency toward unemployment of num bers of workers; to prevent strikes or lockouts; to prevent, in any lo cality, increase of Industrial acci dents, due to shifting of workers to new and to make every effort to'reduce the present accident toil; to aid municipalities of the state in formulating plans for local public work especially during the recon struction period. The Industrial Board, of the depart ment, is perfecting arrangements to keep in close touch with the indus trial situation and at the first sign of any tendency towards unemploy ment of great numbers of men will immediately make known the fact, as required by law, to the Emergency Public Work Commission. A statewide survey Tf tasks now performed by women in industrial plants, and heretofore regarded as men's work, is to be started at once by the industrial surgeons and en gineers of the Division of Hygiene and Engineering of the Department. This survey is to be made for the purpose of analyzing women's pres ent tasks in industry to safeguard women against work of heavy char acter that may be detrimental to their health and to the health of future generations.

FISHER THANKS LOAN WORKERS Highway Leader of Indiana County Says That State Will Now Come Out of the Mud The tremendous favorable vote given the proposed constitutional amendment which will permit the state to borrow $50,000,000 for road purposes Is attributed by t,he Asso ciated Highways Organization of Pennsylvania, which backed the prop osition, to the fact that the state at large has tired of unpermanent main roads. Figures received by the as sociated highways show the Yes votes to have been nearly 200,000 more than the Noes. "The approval of the amendment by the voters of Pennsylvania is complete evidence that the people of this Commonwealth are progressive," said Ex-Senator John S. Fisher, of Indiana, president of the associated highways. "The state is now enabled to borrow money and build highways on a wholesale scale." "Pennsylvania will have the best highway system in America within five years,", was the declaration of William Jennings, of Harrisburg, treasijrer of the associated highways. "Transportation facilities will be im proved and there will be great im provement in economic conditions." Dr. P. T. Johnson, of Erie, vice president of the associated highways, declared that the vote Tuesday plain ly evidenced that Pennsylvanlans are tired of their many meandering miles of mudways. "The vote means that the people have learned that good.roads are an economic necessity. Almost every county in the state has reversed its attitude of 1913, when the bond is sue was defeated by 41,000 votes." If the war is over before tho legis lative sessions of 1919 end the con stitutional amendment providing that the state may borrow money will be put through by the state Senate and House. Not all the $50,000,000 bonds will be issued at one time, of course. The Legislature will say how and when the bonds are to be Issued, in what form, the term and the interest to be paid.
