Combined supply is a war program
designed to bring the United States
victory as quickly and completely as
possible. The workings Of the COM
bined supply scheme are calculated
to emphasize for Americans the
paramount facts that we are in a
war and are out to win it, regardless
of cost.
According to persons with a vital
interest in the supply question, the
change will result in great accelera-
ton of the whole procedure of get
ting supplies for the Allies in the
United States-the placing of the
orders, the speed of manufacture,
the transfer of raw materials neces-
sary to the manufacture and the
dispatch of the finished goods to the
places where they are needed.
The Lease-Lend Administration
has turned back to the British, it
was learned yesterday, many re-
quests for supplies which the agency
considered not essential for the con-
duct of the war. Under the new
arrangement these requests, 1t Is
expected, will be given greater con-
sideration.

Secretary Of Labor Perkins re-
ported yesterday that she Is con-
ferring with Secretary Of Agricul-
ture Wickard on q plan to recruit
in cities q big corps Of farmerettes-
with overalls as uniforms.
But as far as the Washington area
Is concerned, the cabinet members
have been scooped by Mrs. r. Ernest
Dupuy, operating from headquarters
in the stables Of Undersecretary Of
State Sumner Welles.
Wife OF an Army colonel. Mrs.
Dupuy revealed yesterday that she
is ready to offer Maryland farm
jobs to girls and women who will
milk cows, pick berries and do odd
tasks for 30 cents an hour.
Aware that the urban woman does
not possesse many rustic skills, Mrs.
Dupuy Is supporting horticulture,
dairy and poultry courses to be
started next week at the University
Of Maryland by the American Wom-
ems Volunteer Services. She prom
ises that farmers will be delighted
to hire the trainees because trained
labor recently has been their big
headache, with the draft and a
booming Washington draining of
hired hands.
Antique Hobby Dropped.
What Mrs. Dupuy is doing here is
similar to the farmerette movement
Miss Perkins recalls she headed
during the last war in the Hudson
Valley. To the truck and fruit farms
streamed girls from Vassar Col
lege and women from New York
factories.
Agriculture has now stolen Mrs.
Dupuy's attention from the hobby
OF acquiring early American an
tiques for her 2O0-year -old home in
Georgetown. With four years of
experience on a Vermont farm be-
hind her, she decided to stage a
one-woman battle for a feminine
land army in the District.
Mrs. Dupuy got the extension
service of the University of Mary
land to offer six weeks of training
in its dairy barns, vegetable gardens
and poultry yards. Somewhere along
the line the A. w. v. S. gave her an
office in Mr.. Welles' stables and
asked her to start training farm
helpers under its auspices.
She was offered an Olney farm as
experimental station and home for
about 40 girls, though most volun-
teers are expected to drive daily to
their stations from Washington.
The Fairfax County Agricultural
Board got interested in the idea and
appointed a committee to advise
Mrs. Dupuy.
Army to Be Well Trained.
On February she will take a big
step toward formation of her land
army with the beginning Of three
poultry classes a week from 1890
am. to 1890 pm. and three horti-
culture classes a week from 1:30 to

farms full time every day, part time,
or perhaps spend their summer va
cations living at A. w. v. s. expert
mental stations and working for
farmers nearby.
Most Of the volunteers so far
have been women free of actual
care of their home and children
and able to work during the day.
Mrs. Dupuy Is interested in the Of
flee worker who might be trained
at night and work on Sundays and
on vacations. She pictures the day
when Office vacations will be worked
out in accordance with berry pick
ing seasons.
She is also considering suggestions
made by the Fairfax County Board
that women could take out their
wages in further training, or split
produce with the farmers.

Sanitary and Safety Survey

yesterday announced the Health De-
partment had begun a survey of

Washington's industrial establish
ments.
During the past year the District
Minimum Wage Board was given
responsibility for industrial safety,
but more recently the question was
raised at the District Building as to
whether such work more properly
should be assigned to the Health
Department.
Without awaiting for a congress
sional decision: DR.. Ruhland yester-
day announced that a sanitary and
safety survey of all Washington's in
dustrial establishments had been
started and that this survey was
under direction of Russell Rossano.
