Syracuse Merchants Vote to
Close Stores Saturdays at Six
On May 30th, we published a letter on our adver
tising page from the Retail Saleswomen's Associa
tion of Syracuse, N. Y., requesting information re
garding Saturday evening closing.
July Ist the merchants of Syracuse put into effect
the Saturday evening closing. The resolution fix
ing the new hours state:
"It is the desire of the merchants of the
city to make the hours of labor of their em
ployes as light as possible in the interest of
health and from every human consideration.
This is a far more commendable attitude, of hav
ing the employers take the initiative in progressive
movements of this character than to invite other
possibilities later.
