Bronx “Slave” Mart Cont’d.

“Slaves” for 20c an Hour

[[image: cleaning floor]]
A day’s work at 20 to 30 cents an hour! With this goes time out from the cold weather and chances of getting something to eat. Bessie Windstown is featured here.

[[image: ironing]]
Washing, ironing, mending are lumped in with house cleaning. One day’s work will wear you down. With hungry children in Harlem poverty, “Bronx slaves” take low.

[[image: cleaning window]]
It’s not often women domestics from the Bronx “slave” mart wash windows. That is a man’s job. Mrs. Windstown puts up a pitiful smile as she breaks a “slave” rule. 

[[image: cooking]]
Cooking and mending at the same time. Bronx housewives are good overseers. No minutes are lost among the “slaves.” Wanted: a new emancipation (no Bronx cheer)!
