The state of Illinois has just decided
that women employed by the state shall
receive the same pay as men for the

Many labor unions have had that law in
their constitutions for years, and espee

and strongest international body corn
prising the American Federation o-f
Labor, and which is the pioneer in most
reforms for the uplift of the laboring
masses. And these unions didn't ask
the legislatures to."pass a law," either.
