This advice is given here, because of
the embarrassment no men employers.
and few women, can bear to face in
telling an attractive and well-groomed
young woman the truth in such a
situation. Miss Blank, for example, is
given a nt-to-be kind reason for
her dismissal; yet seldom does she
guess the truth. The strangest angle
of this not uncommon situation is that
the sufferer is, herself. completely inn
munized and therefore unaware of this
unpleasantness.

Continued from pose six

military nor political totalitarianism
here.
So l get back to Principle One.
Principle One is:
The Army should be ready on Nj
Day with the bulk of the essential
data necessary to enable the War Re-
sources Administration to take over
and carry on.
Query:
Has the Army done this? say it
has, and think that the proof has
already been made.
1t happens that the President has
anticipated the outbreak of war He
has anticipated M Day He has
appointed a National Defense Ad-
Wsory Commission, consisting of seven
prominent private-life civilians, of
whom the public seems principally to
know Mr. Knudsen of General Motors
and MIR. Stettinlus of the United
States Steel Corporation and MIR.
Hillman of the Amalgamated Clothing
Workers. This commission is the equiv
alent, for the time being, of the Army's
proposed War Resources Administra-
ton. Has the Army been able to give
it the basic background it needs?
The first part of the answer is that
the Army is by no means the arch
villain in the tragedy that now gives
us our appalling lack of modernlstic
military equipment. Some high officers,
it is true, did not foresee the urgent

need for military mechanization. They
were far behind Representative Collins
of Mississippi in that particular. Most
representatives and senators. however,
were not only far behind Mr.. Collins
but also far behind the Army. In the
seven years from 1888 to 1899 they
gave the Army less than $3.50. 0OO,OO
for new equipment. 1t would seem
clear now that they should have ap-
propriated at least ten times that sum
for the purpose. They did not do it.
The Army was unable to make really
largescale equipment purchases. 1t
had to be content principally with
making plans" 1t made them. and
the truth is that it made them we'll.

Trust Those Under You

a SINGLE disadvantage of the usual
super-efhcient person is that she is in
danger Of feeling she must do every
thing herself She is sometimes afraid
to trust part of her responsibility to
her subordinates. And in letting an
unnecessary amount OF work fall on
her own shoulders, and in trying to do
too much, she may ultimately lose her
own efficiency. The really wise execu-
tive is she who also knows what
person to turn to in order to get some
thing done without having to oversee
it while it is being done.
To one who has hrst-class position.
it may seem beside the mark to speak
of details of appearance. But the
clothes Of every business woman are of
importance. No man of business wants
his secretary to look dowdy any more
than he wants his Office furniture to
look shabby. Neither does he want her
to be unsuitably overturned. nor to

is proper, of course. If a woman is to
work in the Office of man, very, very
pale nail polish should be used. If she

even then there should be no perfume,

work that is available instead of that
