WOMEN BUILDING
BRITISH AIRSHIPS

1 London, June 2.--The construction
OF airships Is being carried on In
Great Britain largely by women.
A writer here gives the following
interesting account of a visit TO an
lairship works:
Until a few days ago. when I viz
tied Royal. Naval Air Service sta
ton, ] did not know that our great
airships partly owe their being to ne
work of women. Yet this Is SO,
for many OF the smaller but none the
less important parts of the cir man.
sters are entirely the resdit of fem
mime labor.
In the huge shed, where several
ships rest when they are home from
coast patrol men and women were
hard at work Matching The envelope

spend their leisure hours both Inflated
and debated.
The girls works in sensible and
quite becoming brown overalls, the
men in the navy blue of their service
and all appear so intent on their job
that they obviously have no inclina-
tion TO fritter away the tins in which
they can do work of such real im-
portance to the country
That was my impression, and 1t
was corroborated by the cap ible fore
woman who took me rouEa the oiner
building in which the women work.
In one large and very airy room
saw girls machining small seams In

to Washington for the purpose Of con-
sulting with government officials.

These officers were called by tele-
gram at the request of Senator Bank
head. who stated that 1t was import
ant for them to come at once to hold
a conference with the government Of
fcials. 1t Is to he hoped that won
derful results will accrue from their
visit to Washington. 1t is surmised
that the government lis anxious to take
steps at once to build the Bankhead
highway from Washington to Mem
phis as a great military road.
Already six mobilization and train
ing camps have been designated by
Major General Leonard Wood directly
on the Bankhead National highway
from. Washington to Birmingham
These camps are located at Spartan
burg, Greenville and Columbia, s. c.,
Atlanta. Ca. and Admission. Alabama
1t will be seen that 1t would be a
great movement for the government
to build the .Bankhead highway out
right and dedicate il as a military
highway in order to transport troops
provisions and ammunition from one
training camp to the Their. 1t In a
weli-knwn fact that the rolling stock
of the railroads Is inadequate to
handle the soldiers to the various

the government must resort to high
