Husbands must take a back scal if we are to get on with the war effort, thinks a woman M.P.

"It is not question of telling the won:en if is their duty to come out to the tactory." Dr. Edith Summerskill, Labour MP‚¦ for Fulham, W. told the House ! of Commons

"You have ** to tell the husband that the first loyalty of his wife in the near future is to the State, and secondly to i himself."

Dr. Summerskill

speaking in the debate on Matipower aml Production, and she uffered A warning to Mr. Ernest Bevin, Min. ister of Labour. She said:

"Unless he tells the woman of the country

among them women who had never been in а factory or workshop before

what their wages and condi.. tions of labour are to be. Mr. Bevin will be very seriously disappointed by the lack response to his appeal to them to play their

the part in effort."

Equal Pay

ni

war

She hoped that Mr. Bevin sup- ported the principle of “equal pay for equal work."

"The Minister is going to j11- troduce A measure which will cause as much social upheaval as evacuation" continuerl Dr. Sum- merskill.

"Women who had thought simply in terms of cooking. cleaning and looking after the house cannot be turned almost overnight Into first-class in- dustrial workers.

"I suggest

that the Minister must take one step immediately, and that is to make the women of the country war-minded and the husbands of the country war- minded, and to make them realise the war will entail great sacri- fices."

The question of compensation of women war workers should be considered and made clear by the Government.

The T.U.C.

General

Council

considered Mr. Bevin's plans.
