Pamphlets

[Women's Employment], [World-War II ] McConnell, Dorothy. Women, War, and Fascism. New York: The American League Against War and Fascism, 1935. 18 pages. Bound in brown cardstock wrappers. Measuring 5.5" x 8". McConnell presents a "protest against the use of women as cheap labor in factories and offices, in the U.S. as well as in the fascist states", asserting that "Munitions plants employ women at dangerous tasks, with long hours and low wages. Discriminatory laws against women should be defeated and women's wages made equal with men's for equal work". Wrappers are vibrant and unworn. Small penciled inscription on the title page, not affecting text. An interesting pamphlet promoting the fight for women's labor safety and equal pay during WWII. Very clean and bright pages, in very good condition.
