Already 54 women candidates have been chosen for the coming contest and it is expected about 100 women will be candidates. And politicians estimate probably a third of these will be elected, which will mean that wo- men members of the house of com- mons will be trebled in number, The three political parties are spending a great amount of money, time and energy in efforts to capture the great new vote. Thousands of women recruiting agents are being employed and election literature aim- ed especially at the women voters, is flooding the country. So far the Labor party has select- ed 27 women candidates, the Liberal party 19 and the Conservatives eight. There are at present nine women members of the house of commons-- Lady Astor, the Duchess of Atholl, Mrs, Hilton Philipson and Lary Ive- agh, Conservative; Miss Ellen Wil- kinson, Miss Susan Lawrence, Miss Margaret Bondfield and Mrs, Hugh Dalton, Labor; and Mrs. Walter Runciman, Liberal. Of these how- ever only four were elected in the last general elections -- Lady Astor, the Duchess of Atholl, Mrs. Hilton Philipson and Miss Ellen Wilkinson, the other five entering through by- clections, The Conservatives, besides inten- sive continuous work in canvassing the women voters devoted a week es- pecially to them, holding 5,000 meet- ings in every corner of the country to further the political education of women. Women speakers are being trained at Conservative headquarters by the hundreds, and thousands of women will wear their recruiting badges. The slogan of the party will be: "Vote for the Conservative party, This A Long Slate-Blue Coat Has a Detachable Cape Collar That Can Be Worn "4s Is." Or As a Modish Cape Matching the Skirt. Tunic Froc Of Yellow Beige Oe aces Up the Side With Narrow Ribbons And the Cuffs Are Given the Same nusual Treatmens, which gave you the vote." The Labor party leaders say they are paying special attention to the women because they think women will "instinctively vote Labor." The party is increasing the number of women propagandists and has the largest number of women candidates. They contend they have always rec- ognized the claims of women. The party intends flooding the constituen- cies with handbills and pamphlets telling the womgn how their men- folk y Moe sufferéd during the Con- servative government by unemploy~ ment and under-employment, And the Liberal party is campaign- ing vigorously to educate the women electorate to Liberal ideals. A big demonstration for women was held in London on March 14, when speakers included Lady Allendale, Miss Megan Lloyd George and Miss Nancy Ste- wart Parnell. The Liberals are at- tempting to show by price lists how safeguarding, the Conservative policy, is increasing the cost of living and Liberal remedies for unemployment are being stressed. AUSTRALIAN COOKS PAID FOR OVERTIME Ottawa, Mar, 20.--The astonish- ment of the average Canadian housewife if cook demanded dou- ble pay for serving refreshments to her guests at an evening bridge can well be imagined, but this i= the situation that exists in Austral- ia, according to D. Roy Cameron, Associate director of Forestry, De- partment of the Interior, who men- tioned this as one of his impres- sions of Australia, at a meeting of the Ottawa branch, Engineéring Institute of Canada, yesterday. Mr, Cameron said the domestic servants in Australia are organiz- ed and are employed on an eight- hour day basis. Overtime at double rates has to be paid for ser- vice after the regulation working period. Similar restrictions apply to hotels. Meals are served at reg- ular hours.
