Ten thousand rhl:i-o women employed In various :-.:iv filature, m Shang-haJ are striking f.-.r better rny and shorter hours of work. The workers, who at present work tiiflvc hours at a wage cf flirty-eight cents a day, are de-fiarding-a ten-hour day and an '" rt-asf. of fiv rents per day in thrir pay. I. rly this mcrr.bg more than one thous-.ind -workers, Including- ye-un r ii-is and oi l women, attempted to filter a number of filatures to enlist ''' sympathy of the workers, but a hurry fall from the employers Vrowjrht a detail of police, and the women were f rieh'ened away.

We ar-jz striking- for the in -omotion of morality and the protection of the rights of humanity:" The women are uneducated, desperately poor f,nd practically leaderle.is, so there is little hope of tlx-ir winning ihe strike. Out of it is Kfowing. however, tho first efforts to form a guild of women ivn-lifis of China. Seeing- the u ondcrful Chinese silk and matins in the Shanghai silk stores - - roll after roll rainhow loud, bro.-n, !.!. flow (red ,) striped, the tourist seldom thinks of the f-ufl'i-i-in,- and toil of the little slaves of China who helped produce the beautiful fabrics. Often before sunrise the squeak of the wheelbarrows on which the fl'nture worktrs are riding to work ten or twelve on one. wheelbarrow pushed by one coolie is heard. The -women begin their long- day of tell at sunrise, relieving trie nigjit shift. Tiny Children Worlt The workers range from kiddies of ftv and six. whose little fing-ers; are blistered from the. work, to bent and wrinkled trrandmothers, who must toil if they would live. The women handle the baskets of s!!kivornis, castlcj? the worms into -rent vats of boiling: water, and it is un to tbem to wind the silk from the s Ilk worm", and in doing- so their flr.cers and hands arc burned and scalded. Tiny babies lie at the feet of many cf the w-ornen. They are kept at their work.- so closely, however, that there is little time to care for their little onesr. The women ca-ry their teapots to and from the filatures and bow's of rice and chopsticks in their '-nncb basket?, although in a number

of the filatures the women arc able to purchase hot riee. Just now rice is very expensive, and the bowls grow smaller and smaller. The rice and tea make up the midday meal of the workers. tomr F"rom Country The women come, to Shanghai from the country. . Many of them have accompanied 'their husbands, who r-re for the most part, 'ricksha cool let). I.awkers and street workers. ' The police have arrested six ot the. leadim-r womenln the strike anj are Holding: them in prison. AciotV,lnir to report, the strikebreakers are poins araonj the strikers and telling- the women that their 'carters will be shot unless they go lack to work.
