British Lady Ady Colebrook Returns After Six Months in Munition Factory
Ady Colebrook wife of a British official arrived in New York aboard the Nieuw Amsterdam to rest after six months in England’s munition plants. She worked ten hours daily as a finisher on gun parts and shells, inspiring other women in the industry. Thirty society women joined the program, but only fifteen remained by term end due to arduous labor. Wages for an eight hour day were two shillings five pence, with higher pay for night shifts as skills improved. Plus, engagement news from Norristown.
