Women Increase Lead
Over Men in Big Cities

WASHINGTON. = Women's pre-
dominance in the population of the
big cities is growing, according to
a report from the census bureau.
They outnumber males in 26 Of the
50 cities of more than 100, 600 popu-
lation, Is more than in 1880.
Atlanta had the largest proportion
of females, there being only $40
males counted there for each 100 fe-
males. Richmond Borough in New
York city was at the other extreme,
1923 to 100.
For the country as a whole the
excess of males over females, which
has continued throughout the ma
tons life, reached its peak in 1910,
but has since been dropping at the
rate of about 100000 a year and last
year amounted to only 697, 05l. Wom-
en- outnumbered men in Atlantic sea-
board states, but men were found to
be more numerous in the Middle
West, Southwest, Rocky Mountain
states and on the Pacific coast.

Teachers to Assist Boards
Apportionment Of teachers, so as
to handle quickly the applications,
will be left to the general super
visors who will study the needs Of
each staff. Mr.. Luke emphasized
that hotels, restaurants, institution
and other large users of sugas
would get their rationing books at
different times from civilian users.
The rationing books will be issued
to the accountable officer of each
board who will keep appropriate
records, it was stated. Mr.. Luke,
who declared that full instructions
for the public, including the bound
aries of the boards and the school
houses for each area will be pub
lished later, asked that schools be
opened as nearly as possible at uni
form times to aid those seeking ra-
tioning books.

Rookie Represents Make

CAMP ROBINSON. ARK. : The
new army will have plenty of re-
serve energy if all recruits are like
one at the big training center here.
A tough sergeant was putting a
group of green infantrymen through
a ''make-believe" air raid drill.
When he shouted that enemy planes
were strafng the troops, the soldiers
were supposed to dive into the brush
and lie there until the "all-clear"
signal was sounded.
In the minds eye of the sergeant
there was plenty of strafing, and one
soldier, after falling on his face a
dozen or more times. grew a little
tired. When the next order came,
he calmly sat in the center of the
road
What are you doing?" the SER
geant beloved, wondering what to
expect next

I'm pretending I'm sitting under a

More than 300 war jobs for both men and women, at Windsor Locks Air Base and in Hartford, are to be filled immediately, Paul Kerins, special representative of the U. s. Civil Service Commission, announc- ed today, in an appeal to those not now working in war industry to file applications for immediate appoint ment.
 Not only are skilled automobile and aircraft mechanics needed, said KerinS, but there are openings for unskilled men and women. Girls over IS who have had high school education are needed to take train ing as aircraft mechanic helpers, while men are needed to fill posi- tionS as truck drivers, storekeepers and laborers.
 For the convenience of those en- ployed during the day, the U. s. Employment service office at 414 Capitol avenue, Hartford, will be open Wednesday evening until g o'clock and qualified applicants will be hired immediately.
 Lieutenant Russell K. Bessom of the Air Corp Sub-Depot will be on hand to interview and hire on the spot machinists, auto and aircraft mechanics, painters, patrolmen, au- tomobile or hardware parts men, and women who are interested in training to become aircraft mechan- ics. Girls over IS who have high school education or years of high school plus paid mechanical shop experience will be considered for a 10-week training course for helper aircraft mechanics. During train ing these girls will be paid at the rate of $1080 a year, or approxi- mately $20 week. On completion of the course, successful graduates will be given helper aircraft me chanic jobs at Windsor Locks Air Base at 8 starting salary of $185O per year, for a 48-hour week, in- cluding overtime pay for work in excess of 40 hours.

|21 MILLION
 GIVEN U. s. Q.
Campaign Goal $32,OOO,- 900; 1000 Communities
 Already Exceed Quotas

Total contributions of $21, ,182, ,263 have been received to date by the USO War Fund Campaign, it was announced today by Prescott s. Bush, National Campaign chairman. The goal for the campaign is $32,- 900 900.
 MT. Bush pointed out that there were 488 campaigns of local com- munity chests and war funds being conducted this Fall, in which USO participates with other local and war relief agencies. Commenting up- on results obtained thus far in these campaigns, MT. Bush expressed sat- isfaction with current results and confidence in the ability of the 488 local communities to raise their quotas and contribute the balance required to meet the $32,00o, 900 goal of USO.
 During the last three weeks,' he explained, there has been marked stepping up of gifts reported to USO. In the week ended October 2 these totalled $299,670; the follow ing week $369, 1856; but last week the amount reported jumped up to $1,- 481 ,564.
 we are placing our full reliance upon these local Community Chest and War Fund campaigns" he con- tinued. Many of the largest cities are conducting their campaigns this Fall, and the response which we have had from cities and towns of all sizes has been very fine. The public has shown its understanding of the need for rapid expansion of the work of USO to parallel the great growth in the number of our armed forces. We are confident that the communities conducting cam paigns this Fall will raise their quotas and see us through to the completion of our $32, 100000 goal"
 MT. Bush stated that 1000 con- munities have now exceeded their quotas in the national USo Wa, Fund Campaign.
