ABSTRACT
Women's Trades, is to be introduced into Parliament
by Colonel Denny, M.P., in the next Session, which aims at the better regulation of women's work a.t home. "Unnecessary agitation has been caused," says the Glasgow Evening News (December 27), "by the idea that an effort was really being made to harass the worker and make home work practically impossible, but this is -:ery far from the intention of a Bill which merely seeks to regulate such work on the sanitary side, or the interests at once of the workers and of the public." We hope this account of the Bill is a. true one. But inspection of homes needs very careful application, and at least as much regulation as home work itself.
