'.,Womcin Senator Says Equal Pay Mdkes Men's Jobs Safe ()'lTAWA (CPI-Canada's male ”.'(Vl'li2I'S have nothing to fear from 'r"-rnl legislation providing equal pay for women doing the same xrrv-:k as men in industry under federal jurisdiction. a woman sen- ator said Friday. Mrs. Muriel Fergusson (L-New Brunswick) said that equal pay for women adds security to the jos of mbale employees because in bad times they would not fear that an employer would hire lower-paid women to do their jobs. Mrs. Fergusson was sponsoring in the Senate legislation providing equal pay for women. The meas- ure. passed by the Commons last Monday. was whipped through the upper house unopposed in less than an hour. The woman senator said the hill, long sought by women's or- ganizatinns in Canada. "is I log- ical further step in the direc- tion nf granting equal rights to women." it would affect some 72,000 women in industries regu- lated by federal labor laws. PAY SAME TAXES Mrs. Fergusson said the argu- ment that men require higher sal- aries than women because they have to support families is a dis- crimination based on the sex of the employee Many women who work were widows supporting children and they were entitled to the same pay aa' men for doing the same work. Women paid the same taxes as men and their costs of living were not lower than those oof male work ers. Mme Mariana Jodin IL-Que becl said the bill will help give working women the same security -as men. It represented an act of justice towards working women. She said she hopes the federal measures will be followed by sini- ilar legislation in five oi the 10 provinces which have not adopted the principle so far. Ontario, Saskatchewan. British Columbia. Manitoba and Nova Scotia all have equal pay for women legislation. ELLEN'S DIARY Gala Fair Days Are Here By this time The Fair of Old Home Week is in full swing.
