FIRST WORLD WAR WOMEN working for peace in Melbourne 1914-1919 PROLOGUE === 17. === 19. THE WOMEN’S PEACE ARMY 18. WINNERS AND LOSERS
Who Profits by the War? Broken Hill (mining) Ltd.
The report and balance sheet is commented on in the “Argus” of 9th inst. Profit of 196,059 pounds with 99,816 pounds the previous half-year. Woman Voter ============ Who Loses the War? The men who lose their lives. The women who lose their husbands, brothers and sons. The children who lose their fathers. The workers who lose their wages, who have to pay high rents and high prices. The fathers who love their boys. The mothers who have to go out and work too soon before and too soon after the boy’s birth. The child who goes to work instead of to school. The babies who die from want and lack of mother’s care, sacrificed to feed the fires of war. The young girls who can never be wives and mothers. The soldiers’ widows and orphans who will starve on their pensions. The nation which is robbed of its young men and unborn children. All those who have brains to think and hearts to love humanity. All these different classes of people who want the war to stop at once. Are you one? Woman Voter 20 January 1916 State Library of Victoria
