sula supervisor for the state well
fare department under Grover c.
Dillman, a Republican, and in No

2 Goods Enrolled

Training is being carried on at
capital city airport under expert
enced flying school instructors.
Enrolment is limited to juniors
and seniors. Although open to
young men and women. authori-
ties attempt to discourage female
applicants.
However those who do enroll and
can complete successfully the pri-
mary and advanced programs are
qualified TO become instructors,
Hobbs said. At present two co-eds
are enrolled.
The primary course consists OF
40 hours flying and ground school
work. The advanced course calls
for approximately IS hours flying.
Students could complete courses
more rapidly. Hobbs said. but they
have to sandwich in flying with
regular college studies.

Bases Still Function

The British have four major
Mediterranean bases located at
Gibraltar. Malta. Crete and Alex
andria, from which they operate
and make sweeps" at various
times. The principal base in the
western Mediterranean, Gibraltar,
and the base at Malta have suf-
fered repeated bombings by Ger
man and Italian planes in recent
months, but judging from their
continued use by British vessels,
it is evident that they have not
been so seriously damaged as to
put them out of commission.
What was accomplished at &C.

preview of what British warships
may do in future operations

Nation S Women.

Sec. of Labor Perkins,
Claire Booth Luce
Tell of Vital Duties

Women have vital place in the
national defense and must make
the most of the role which they
are best fitted to play in their
country's national life today.
This is the consensus of six ma
tieHally- known women who Sat-
urday, over the CHS radio net
work. discussed for the benefit of
the women of this country their
responsibilities in the defense of
America.
The six participating were Mrs.
Elizabeth Harrison Walker, chair
man, a daughter and granddaughter
of a president: Frances Perkins,
secretary of labor; Marion M.
Dickerman, educator, principal of
Todhunter School; Jane Todd.
New York assemblywoman; Vivian
Vance. actress, and Claire Booth
Luce, playwright and author.

Ostend Attacked

Two days after the raid on
Genoa another British squadron
from the home feet struck vicious
" and for 20 minutes shelled the
Belgian port of Ostend February
IL, the biggest naval offensive
against the Nazi-held channel
ports to date.
What is most important, how
ever, is the fact that neither
German submarines nor aircraft
were present in sufficient strength
to prevent this raid or 10 inflict a
single casualty on any naval unit
engaged in the attack. though it
was made against a defended port
within easy striking distance Of
several German-held bases in
Belgium, France and Holland.
Considering this with other
operations mentioned, it is evident
that greater emphasis is now be-
ing placed by the British on sea
power than on air power. And so
far the warships have won all the
honors in every contact.
This may indicate that a turn
ing point in strategy is al hand.
as aerial warfare has not proved
itself as effective against warships
as originally believed. This is due.
in the first place. to the very
small percentage of hits obtained
on movable targets, and secondly
to the fact that even when hits
are obtained no vital damage is
done TO properly armored vessels.

Responsibility to Vote

Concerning the Importance oi
women in politics today, Miss
Todd said:
Joining a political party does
not mean that you must vote
a straight ticket. But vote, see
that good men are placed in the
primaries. Remember that in
our government the minority
party's duty Is to offer con-
structlve criticism"
Miss Dickerman also discussed
the part religion must play in
national life.
Hitler has substituted the
God of force, the philosophy OF
power, not justice. He has swept
aside the individual right OF
man to free speech and free
worship. These beliefs can never
he accepted in land which has
a Plymouth Rock and an Ellis
Island"

safer world for our children"
Said Miss Dickerman:
"Women's duties in the de-
tense program are limitless. We
can work within our own COM
munities to make better health
and better homes. Discourage
-ment of people is the breeding
ground for dictators. A secure
family structure is the basis of
a secure national life. Putting
our own communities in order is
all part-and an integral part
In national defense.
"Whole communities can be
improved, cleaned up and living
made better. All that Is part of
the national foundation

Burden of Morale

Said Secretary Perkins:
This Is an age OF speclaliza-
ton and special knowledge.
Every woman citizen must find
a task she does well. whether
IL Is homemaking or factory
work. The important thing Is
for her to do II to the best of
her ability.
'In the women of America
rests the morale Of the coun-
try. Our boys are going off to
camp. Their spirit depends on
their sense of security, their
faith in their family and In
their community to see that
their families will be cared for.
There may be questions of
food distribution. Here Is some
thing which must of necessity be
a local problem and the women
are best fitted to help. They
know and understand the prob
lens. 1t Is they who must adapt

Many Problems Raised

"AIl over the country new

There are matters of housing.

Churches and local Organiza-

problems, and such local organi-

Women today must take an
active interest In local politics.

Must Face Issues

Said Miss Luce:
81 believe women may best
help in the cOuntry's prepared
ness by putting their own minds
in order. They must face the
fact that American planes are
already shooting down German
planes, that American bombs are
falling on Germans.
To-day the question is no
longer whether or not this or
that Is the thing to do. That
time is past. Today. the prob
lem is how to get the utmost in
efficiency and speed In our pre-
paredness program. This does
not mean we must accept blindly
anything which the administra-
ton proposes.
at means we must he alert to
see that preparedness goes ahead
swiftly and intelligently. that we
must fight boondoggling, getting
the maximum of efficiency.
Duties Linitiess
"T want to speak of the Sec
ond thing which women can do.
We must ask now what we want
out of this new war. We want
first of all just two things for

ity. We must see TO IL that a
lasting peace does come this
time. We must demand that the
