A Woman to Direct
Employment of
Other Women
wv AsHINGTON, June IA
w Creation of the position of

w 4s@'se7@H: essa51ss o. H.. 'ss; ss.;s,'a a:: Of
Assistant Director General
of the United States Employment
Service for woman, who will have
charge of the securing of employ
ment for women, is one of the feat
ures of the Nolan and Kenyon bills
introduced into Congress to make
that service permanent. This will
be one of the few executive positions
for a. woman made statutory bv
Uncle Sam. The present head of
the Women's Division of the United
States Employment Service is Mrs.
Margaretta Neale, and her Office is
practically that of Assistant Direc-
tor General.
Under the law now in force there
is no compulsion to name a woman
at the head Of the women's divi-
sion. The Nolan bill has been intro
duced in the House and the KENYON
bill in the Senate making this pro-
vision. The salary for the woman
executive is to be fixed at $4,000
year. An appropriation of $4,000, 1000
is asked to put into effect the Fed
eral-state system of employment
service as it has been in operation
during the last ten months of the
war. The bills have been turned
over to the House committees on
Education and Labor, respectively.
Hearings on the question are to
be held within the next ten days it
is thought. The testimony to be
produced in behalf of the women's
division of the service will deal
largely with results ACCOMPLISHED
from the time it was organized. on
January 3, 1918, until the day of
the armistice, November II, 1918.
1t will be shown that prior to this
time there were only nine Federal
and forty-six state and municipal
employment Offices existing for wom-
en-. The placements for those
women who did apply were usually
limited to domestic and low-paid
clerical work. By the time of the
armlstice, the Offices of employment
for women had been increased ia
400, and there had been established
executive supervision by women.
After the Women's Division of the
United States Employment Service
began to operate war workers were
recruited and all types of women
labor were handled-farm, profes
slonal. industrial and clerical work
ers. The placements increased about
ten times-from 5000 to 10000
women. Following the armistice
many war workers were transferred.
without loss of time or money.

CHAPTER xxIII.
pespair-and Freedom.

OeSpaIr-anu Freedom.
While / was working at the hos
pital conditions at my old barracks
had been getting worse and worse.
Very few of the men were absolutely
right in the head, guess, and almost
all had given up hope of ever getting
out alive. Though they put up good
front to the Huns, they really did not
care a great deal what happened to
them. The only thing to think about
was the minute they were living in.
The day / came back two English
men, who had suddenly gone mad,
commenced to fight each other. 1t was
the most terrible fight 1 have ever
seen. It was some time before the
rest of us could make them quit, be-
cause at first we did not know they
were crazy. When we had them down,
however, they were scratched and bit
ten and pounded from head to foot
Both of them bled from the nose all
that night, and toward morning one
| of them became sane for few min
utes and then died. The other was
taken away by the Germans. still
crazy.
Another time an Australian came
into our barracks and very seriously
told us that he had drag with the
German officers and that he had beer
to dinner with them, and had had tur
key, potatoes, coffee, butter, eggs
sugar in his coffee, and all the luxurie'
you could think of. We just sat ant
stared at him. It seemed impossible
that any of our own men would have
the gall to torture us like that, and ye
we could not possibly believe that /
had really happened. Finally, on
fellow could not stand it any longer
He was nothing but skin and bones
