WORK OF FRENCH AVIATORS

Washington, April 1.-The work
OF French ayiators in the great bat

French aviation is participating

NEW JOBS FOR NEW WOMEN

Before considering some Of the
newest opportunities that the war is
opening up to women already trained
or willing to equip themselves for
special work, read these paragraphs:
"The pitifulness Of the unprepared
women and the cruelty of casting
them out on the world to earn liv-
ing at time of life when it is too
late to prepare, and with no fitness for
needed service, is the crime against
the young women of the past and the
weakness of woman's position today.
"It is no use to want to shake ones
fist in the face of the past; the thing
to be done is to change the whole at
|titude of public opinion in regard to
labor, its dignity and power, and then
open up the world of service freely
to those who have the will to take it "
They are the words Of DR.. Anna
Howard Shaw, chairman of the wom-
ans committee of the Council Of Ma
tional Defense. Doctor Shaw's COM
mittee is not only leading the mobili-
cation Of the woman power OF Amer
lea, but is the strongest force in
America today for advancing the OPP
portunity and recognition Of women.
Now, here are few Of the newest
ways in which women are invited to
serve themselves and their country,
too:
Munitions plants are asking ter
qualified women as clerks in positions
formerly open only to men.
Factories are now employing wom-
en- welfare executives instead Of men
exclusively.
Women trained as statisticians are
called for by the United States gov
eminent.
Examinations for positions in fer
mentation mycology have been offered
to women by the United States civil
service commission.
The War Department has made
women eligible as code clerks II they
have had three months training with
specified tabulating equipment.
The surgeon general of the army
has called for one hundred women
bacteriologists to take the places Of
linen who are now in cantonment lab
|oratories.
The Red Cross is accepting, when
lin properly authorized organized and
financed units, women for service in
France as nurses, dietitians, physi-
clans, secretaries and social workers.

commission had not awarded the COM

ing cooperation with city officials in

Mr.. Wilson stated that these various

Mr. Wilson said also that the rate al
