months - was doing the job she had trained
it to do. And so swiftly and efficiently did it
accomplish its first great task that by noon on
Monday. Britain's big cities were like war
ships cleared for action
On the last day of the evacuation Lady
Reading could take minute off to assure
anxious mothers that their children were
being properly looked after. But it was only
minute With her evacuation machine
working smoothly she had few other things
to attend to enlisting another 5000 volun-
teer ambulance drivers, adding thousands of
women to the battalions of auxiliary nurses,
canteen workers and hospital workers, and
supervising the general expansion of her civil
defense army from million to two millions.
For, although the evacuation workers were
the first to swing into action they form only
one division of her entire army. This remark
able woman had to look forward to the time
when those swastika-emblemed bombers
might get through - she had to be sure that
when they did other sections of the Women's
Voluntary Services would be on the job, ready
to help clear gas-contaminated Streets to rem
der first aid and to rush the injured off to
emergency hospitals and attend them in those
hospitals. There is indeed no angle of civil de-
fense that this women's army doesn't touch.

accustomed to almost unlimited leisure (well-
earned after nearly quarter century of hard
toi) she donned green snock sixteen months
ago, moved over to big desk in bare office
and has been working an eighteen-hour day
ever since. She has not had time to dine out
five times in year, and her lunch is usually
sandwich at the desk or in her car.
This is the second war she has served in.
In the unorganized and unready Britain of
August, 1914, she left her home (her father,
Charles Charnaud, served the British in
diplomatic posts in Turkey and elsewhere)
and became a pantry maid. She took the
place of a volunteer soldier
She is one of those rare human beings who
always learn something from their expert
ences. In that first job she learned self
discipline - and how to make mustard
properly. Before she started to build the
w. V. S. she had made herself mistress of
several languages, and had become an author
ity on Indian affairs, broadcasting. migration,
imperial relations and few Other subjects
She had sat as member of government
advisory bodies in these matters.
She sounds formidable, and in way she is.
She exercises an immense influence through
her friends in high places, who respect her
opinions. and consult her; and she has a
natural force of her own. But there is no
vestige of the important pubic woman
about her. She is strongly feminine - too
feminine to be feminist She has worked 80
long in the background that she j stin little
shy and self-conscious in public woman
role; and if she can avoid personal publicity,
or meeting newspapermen. she does.
Notwithstanding the seriousness of her job.
she has broad streak of gaiety, and she likes
to poke fun. With big executives capacity
for hard. driving work, and swift incisive
mind. she is able to hold her own in counsel
with statesmen and administrator; she knows
how to coax, and takes pleasure in it. 1t is,
probably, the Frenchwomapm her.
The story of Stella Charnaud would be set
in chateaux in France. if her ancestors had not
been Huguenots. The French kings scattered

German oligarchs scattered the Jews. In each

~ FRIDAY September first began one of
the strangest and greatest human
~ treks in all history. The threat of
Hitler's swastika-emblemed bombers had
fallen suddenly athwart the crowded capital
and the industrial cities of Great Britain, and
all school children, all nursing and expectant
mothers all hospital patients and all the blind
and crippled began moving out of the crowded
areas and dispensing over hundreds of miles
of countryside.
More than two million of them moved out
in that first war week end beginning Friday
and ending Monday September fourth The
hundreds of London schools alone sent out
100000 children. But there was no screaming
and no scurry. Column after column of
marching children, crowded automobiles,
motor coaches and buses moved quietly and
efficiently from their points of assembly to
their points of departure past workers sand
bagging police stations and post offices, past
soldiers guarding antiaircraft- batteries
under blue sky displaying new silver gray
constellation Of 1900 barrage balloons. And.
just as efficiently, they were scattered over
the countryside, in the mansions, rooming
houses and cottages that had already been
earmarked for them.
The government played Pied Piper in this
measured human flow, with schoolteachers
assembling and escorting the school children
But the chief shepherd was a tall dark-eyed
woman who for many months had pictured in
her mind this scene of moving millions and
had blueprinted it for smooth action when the
hour should strike.
She is the dowager Marchioness of Reading,
chairman of the Women's Voluntary Services
for Civil Defense.
On that evacuation week end she worked
mainly from her headquarters in sandbagged
Office block in Westminster. but her hand
reached out to the oongested and dangerous
districts of Tyneside Clydebank, Southamp-
ton, Portsmouth. Liverpool, Birmingham and
Leeds - to industrial cities, port towns and
naval bases.
There were no casualties and no slip-ups
in that evacuation because she had foreseen
everything down to the last detail and had
