DRIVE SUCCESS
VERY NECESSARY
Naval SeCretay'S Wife Tells
of Women'S War Work,

Washington is the pulse Of the ma
tion," said Mrs. loSephus Daniels, as
she sat at the breakfast table at the
Skirvn hotel this morning, "and il you
could only come to Washington and
see the part the woman is playing in
this war. you would see how the
American woman stands behind the
men in everything connected with war
work"
Women Sacrifice.
They TOO, are making their sacrifices,
suffering hardships and deprivations,
IN fact. most OF them are coming TO
Washington under adverse circumstan-
ces, not as a business proposition, but
inspired by the same motive as the
boys in the army.
There are two sets OF women in the
navy, the ycowomen who wear the same
uniform and are under the same or
dcrs as the men, except they are not
sent across the ocean; and the marine
women, who work with the marines IN
ilc clerical departmeht-and every wo-
man enlisted, released a man for fight
ing" said Mrs. Daniels.
Mrs. Daniels is in close touch with
women workers in Washington, having
devoted her whole life TO war work
since the outbreak Of the war. She is
connected with the Y. w, c. A. and is
chairman OF the navy department Of the
Red Cross. She has two sons in the
army
Mrs Daniels feels that officials in
Washington are impressed with the fact
,ha, the success OF the United Wai
Work campaign is more necessary thar
even. as without the stimulant OF ex-
citement, the soldiers will be subject tc
greater temptations than heretofore
The spirit shown toward the campaign
in the southwest has impressed Mrs
Daniels, and she has met with enthus'
iastic responses at the various meetings
she has attended.
