I Hr I Compensation Insurance atesAreHerel CALL OR WRITE Hammar 41 So Bell 8th St, Phone 666 (United Press Correspondence.) Cleveland, Dec. many hundreds of women machinists and mechanics have been developed in thin and other American Industrial centers since the European war boomed business nnd cut oft' Immigration, that the American woman'a Invasion of tho mechanical trades threatens to vie with the invasion of the name field by women In Europe. Thousands of women have been employed for years on light mechanical tasks In this country, but aklll- ed women mechanics manipulating giant steel lathes, punches, drills, trimming presses nnd other heavy machinery. Is believed to be an Industrial Innovation in America.

This at least is true in Clovdtand which, with other cities is riding tho crest of the prosperity wave started by huge war orders from the allies. The cause Is two-fold; there IH a labor shortage and women are more clilclent In certain mechanical work. Whether continue their Invasion of jobs formerly fllifccl by men is, many manufacturers say, one of the big factors to be reckoned with after tho war Is over. Such Is the belief expressed by Edgar K. Adams, Huperlntendent Cleveland hardware manufacturing company, one of the largest of it kind in America.

He declared to day that women mechanics have be gun a permanent Invasion raen'i places in factorlea, AH women and girls havo sup planted men at typewriters, behind department store counters and in th textile and canning industries, so will they tako men's places at ol machines whoro dexterity and consid orable muscle is needed, Adams bo oH. At llrst these women workers will bo recruitnd mostly from those immigrant races, whose women are accustomed to manual labor In th fields. Due to labor shortage hero, when 3000 skilled mechanics are naed ed, and to tbo decrease in immigra Uon Adams declared ho was employ Ing us fast iiH he can lind them, wo men constitutionally fitted to opfirato machines; and that other employers weru doing the sumo. At drilling, punching and trimming presses Adams' company now employs 1130 women. They are running machines formerly operated by men and doing better work, Adams suld.

Those women, recruited from the ranks of Polacks, Lithuanians Slavs and Hungarians, average $1.75 per day foreight hours work. Some of them are married, their husbands working in other parts of the shops. Others get married and keep on working. Their average age Is about 26. Inspection of the rooms where tho women were employed showed good light, heat and ventilation.

Foremen were clone by to adjust any machine that might get out of order. Comparing conditions surrounding the women employes at the heavy machines, with a hundred stenographers In a nearby office, Adams said women trades-workers got a greater financial return for their efforts because, unlike the stenographers, they had no social standard to maintain. "Hvehy employer takes away a part of the wage he pays stenographer, because he requires her to dress neatly and properly," said Adams. don't care bow our women machinists dress. However, they dress very well as a clsse, their standard of living is not low, and many of thew have very respectable bank accounts.
