IL sounds like quick work. But the
training is intensive, and apparently the
young women chosen already have had
an excellent foundation training. They
are to be broken in exactly as are men
employed in the same line of work
They are tackllng actual jobs right now
and learning their work through prac
tical application Of every new lesson
and theory.
There's no particular reason why
women shouldn't succeed i'm such work.
As to the danger of their leaving Just
as they have gotten well started, Mr..
Rice anticipates no unusual conditions
IN this regard. 81 continually train
young men and get them just where
they are beginning to be useful, and eff
they go. II will be about the same with
the women"
There may be some who will marry
and drop their engineering work. There
VIII be some who leave TO follow new
opportunities that have grown out of
this work, just as the ambitious young
man leaves one department for the
next higher up. But with the field
open, there will always be plenty of
good material ready to train and there
will be efficient, able women engineers
who stay on the job because it is their
job and they can do il well.

WHERE SWEDISHAMERICANS
STAND.

We have not yet got into any serious
controversy with Sweden, despite the
accommodating evidence that the Swedish
government has been acting as a cats
paw for Germany and incidentally
wronging the United States. 1t is con.
sidered likely that King Gustav. with
the sad example of the deposed Greek
king before his eyes, will come 10 his
senses and curb the pernicious influ-
ence Of his German wife and courtiers
before matters go any further The
whole pro-German officialdom of Swed.
en- may see new light too, in view Of
the gathering Indignation Of the allies
abroad and the Swedish people at home.
The allies have power to punish
Sweden severely by stricter embargoes.
The Swedish people may punish their
government in the approaching elec.
tions, for Sweden is a constitutional
monarchy and most Of the voters are
said TO be pro-ally.
In this iuncture the pressure Of
American influence is having a whole
some effect Our citizens of Swedish
origin are almost a unit in upholdng
the American position and insisting that
the Swedish government restrict It's pro-
German activities Their position is
admirably expressed by former Gov.
ernor Lind Of Minnesota, himself of
Swedish blood, speaking to Swedish
Americans he says:
Whatever kindly feeling we may
Whatever kindly feeling we may
have toward the people Of Sweden. we
say to them that unless they choose
10 have a government In harmony with
the aspirations Of the free peoples Of
the earth, they must suffer the conse.
quences Of the actions Of their rulers
They are our friends in peace: but II
war should come, they are our enc.
mics"
Such straight American talk is the
best sort Of preventive against their
ever becoming our enemies II our
German-Americaus had taken so ute.
Uuivocal a stand with regard to Ger.
many at the beginning Of our contro.
versy with the kaiser's government. we
should not bee at war with Germany
