WOMEN
SUCCEEDING IN.
UNUSUAL TASKS

Berlin, Feb. Zone of the Berlin
newspapers has conducted an inquiry
as to how women have succeeded in
doing mems work, and to what extent
they will be kept at such work after
the war.
The leading electrical company of
the country replied that it was now
employing four times as many wom-
en- as before the war, and its factories
in general had favorable results with
women as workers
The street-cleaning department re-
ports that women have done well as
tearhsters on night work, but they
have not yet been employed in actual
STRENGTHENING, there being enough
men to do it. The omnibus company
has been employing women only for
short time, but it reports itself as
satisfied with them, both as drivers
and as conductors. The leading local
express company, which also handles
much baggage and other heavy OBJ
jects, says that it has some women
at work, but it finds that they are
not suited for such heavy work; they
are also hindered by their clothing
in climbing upon and out of the wag-
ons.
has substituted women for men to
the extent of one-half Of the names
on its pAy-rolls; $500 of it's 400
conductors are women, $50 of the g.
750 motormen, 400 of the 1000 en-
ployes in it's workshops, including
those engaged in washing cars, and
200 Of the 500 Office employees. The
company says: I'm all these positions
the women are doing satisfactory
work. which varies little from that
of the men,
The post Office reports that it has
taken on a large number Of women,
especially in the smaller offices, and
that they have given favorable re-
suits; but it is not intended to retain
them permanently after the war.
The state railway management emu
merates great number of positions
in which it now employs women and
praises the "good will, industry, zeal,
and in many Instances the achieve
ments'' Of the women but it COM
plains that the irreguiarity Of their
work, the frequent changes in employ
ment, having a disturbing effect The
management adds that many women
who have done satisfactory work will
be retained in the service after the
war, but that in general the employ
ment Of women by the state roads will
be only temporary.

Lincoln,s the Pennsylvania, the George
Washington, and the Kaiser Wilhelm
II. are also believed to be aground,
but their predicament Is not as serf-
GUS as that Of the Vaterland.
Should any of the German ships
try to escape the chances of success
would be about one in a thousand.
To get through He'll Gate they would
have to slip by destroyer on guard
off White stone Landing, and even
If the ship succeeded in accomplishing
that feat she would still have to face
the searchlights Of Fort Totten, only
a mile or so further away. The San
dy Hook route is guarded by des-
troyer off Quarantine, and two owners
in the Narrows.
Scouts RumOrs Of Flight
81 do not see what all this activity
is about" said Captain Gustave Fried
ericks, the Assistant General Superin-
tendent of the North German Lloyd
piers, commenting on the activity OF
the neutrality squad yesterday. Alb
soIutely everything is just as it was be-
fore the note to President Wilson, and
as it has been since the beginning
of the war It is absurd to suggest
that any of the vessels are about to
GO to sea. Most of them are not in
condition to go, even if they had coal
enough, which they have not. Nor is
there the slightest justification fog the
report that parts of machinery have
been removed or that any of these
other things have been done. The
members Of the neutrality squad are
on board the ships all the time, and
should know if anything Of the sort
had taken place. And certainly
would know Of it also, which do
not
Another steamship official express
ed apparent establishment over the
unusual vigilance exercised at the
piers.
.sWhat should we want to send these
vessels out to sea for?" he exclaimed.
s"They would only be captured or de-
stroyed. Nothing Of the sort is con-
templated. We are not convinced that
war between Germany and the United
States will result. We think Presi-
dent Wilson will avoid any such thing.
Germany is confronted by a terrible
situation, and must take this action.
President Wilson knows this"
little later this official remark
ed:
"This note, which recalls the pledges
made by Germany, certainly is the
beginning Of the end. We shall see a
terrible year. But Germans do not
want to go to war with the United
States"
The steamships of the North Ger
man Lloyd Company at Hoboken are
under the general authority Of Cap
tain Max Moller, and those Of the
Hamburg American Company under
Captain F. Jarka.
Additional guards were on duty yes
terday at 135th street and the HUDSON
River, where five German ships are
at anchor. Crowds gathered repeat
