night each week to choose some
artist, author, or legal light as

Studying Steel
Frances Perkins can be set
down as one who loves her fellow
man, even If she does camouflage
the feeling with enunciations Of
laws Of general justice.
One hot day last July she went
through a blazing Pittsburgh steel
mill, seeking facts to be used id
drawing code, letting workmen
tell her their own troubles.
But when reporter asked #
she thought the mill workers APP
preciated what the labor depart@
ment was doing for them, she am
swered:
"Well, we are not exactly try
ing to do anything for them--we
are trying to balance production
with consumption"

WASHINGTON HEADLINERS
Frances Perkins Shields Her Private Life From Iimeght

By BESS FURMAN
nv Annotated a.reasl

WASHINGTON, April 2O.A
small, dark-haired woman named
Frances Perkins has succeeded in
maintaining her cool New Eng
land reserve even while she plays
one of the ssnew deals" most con-i
spicuous roles.
The fact that she's the first
woman to hold cabinet job
hasn't made it easy for her to
keep the limelight from her priv
ate life, but the present secre-
tary Of labor remains as enigmat-
ia as Mona Lisa's smile in this
town Of gossip and rumors.
With penchant for facts and
figures, she has done i determin-
ed Job in the labor department
and her PHILOSOPHERS flavor many
if the Roosevelt doctrines. Her
home address and telephone NUM-
Der. however, are private.
Emphasis On Statistics
Reporters attending her weekly
press conferences may absorb
some Of the thrill she gets from
telling Of increased factory ems
ployment and payrolls, but they
leave without learning anything
Of Frances Perkins herself.
When she moved into the labor
department little more than 4
year ago she found a secret
service and staff tracking down
alleged "reds." She abolished it,
discharged So special immigration
investigators and turned the EN-
phasis to building up a statistical
service that would give an accu-.
rate picture of the depression.
The Perkins Place
Turning to cupboards crammed
with plans people had poured in
for curing the depression. she sort
ed them, classified them, called
labor leaders in to talk about the
ideas and reported results to the
president. Soon she saw many of
them functioning.
What the welI-dressed woman Is
wearing this season doesn't in
terest her much. Perhaps she rea-
sons that If she keeps wearing the
same tricorn hat and black eve
ming dress to the White House,
eventually the reporters viii stop
recounting it as news.
Her interests are planted deep
in New England soil. To her be-
longs the old perkins place" up
there. She keeps the address
carefully hidden so that when she
goes there she can be the same
