ENGLAND SENDS CALL
FOR 10000 WOMEN
ENGLAND SENDS CALI. FOR "a
BY FRANK GETTY.
United Press Staff Correspondent

LONDON, Feb. 10. fBy MALL =
England wants 10000 more women
for her second line Of advance
| the munition factories.
The first appeal, sent out by the
ministry Of munitions early this
month, which called for 5000 VIZ
men, was Immediately met. To-day.
In making "a big squirt for the
last phase that will carry the men
at the front into victory" the minis
try wants 10000 more.
We want rich and poor alike for
this final effort, an official at the
ministry of munitions told the
United Press.
IN the early days Of the war
women with means were asked to
stand on one side TO let working
and professional women who had
10 earn their livings give service.
Now we want al classes to come
forward and help in the making OF
munitions, so that every woman
can say IN the near future that she
has done her share.
1--WE have found that physical
qualities are no longer necessary for
the work. AS loag as the yolun-
teer has delicacy of touch she be
longs TO the right type.
Women are at work now in al
the danger zones and through theiI
hands entirely munitions go from
raw material to the finished arti-
cle. They do the testing. overlook
ing. packing, sealing. lorrying, ant
actually place the goods in railway
trucks for the 'front.'
