  Working Hours of Women in Factories
If the law regulating the hours of work for these women should be declared unconstitutional, a rush order from a barber for a fresh supply of white coats might result in forcing them to tread their pedals fourteen or fifteen hours a day, or all night long, without rendering their employer liable to prosecution.
We insist that it is perfectly constitutional to limit and restrict the hours of labor of women in manufacturing establishments, because of the effect of such employment upon this class of our citizens, because of their greater physical weakness, and the necessary and consequent effect upon the well-being of society.
Our experience since the first year in which it (the eight hour system) was tried has fully borne out the conclusions then arrived at and we are fully satisfied that as regards the comparison between eight and nine hours per day the balance of advantage is in favor of the shorter period.
