Reinstating Soldiers and Women in War Jobs Urged
The United States Employment Service should be continued to ease demobilization while expanding labor exchanges. Women who filled men's wartime roles must face fair pay and safe duties, with limited female labor in hazardous tasks and equal pay for equal work. The War Labor Board should persist, ensuring a living wage and workers’ rights, with housing programs guiding peacetime planning. Local notices report community visits and March 1 business closure at 6 PM Wednesdays through Sundays.
