Women Now Going on Jobs Once Held Only by Men
Kaceys Ready toLaunchDrive For Building
Program of Activities to Culminate in Acquisition
 of Home

A long-range program of activities designed as part of a Knights of Columbus Build ing Fund Campaign and eliminating in the acquisi- ton of a permanent home for the K. of c. in Waterbury was launched at a meeting ot Sheridan Council, "A, K. ot C., last night in the Colum- bus Club. -..
 Officers and members of the Building Committee endorsed a plan to be announced soon at a meeting of a large group of present and former members, the purpose of which is completion of a schedule of benefits of varying description throughout 1942.
 A report was submitted on the progress made to date of the Build ing Committee. Several central pieces of property have been visited by this group, but no action will be taken with regard to approval of any particu ar one pending the an- nouncement of the general cam paign plan.
 The name of the K of C.. has been linked With transfer of owner ship in tie former George Goss property on Church street, now owned and occupied by the Notre Dame Academy. It is expected that following sale of this property the academy will be moved to the Truman Lewis estate on Woodlawn Terrace. While the K of c. con- mittee has inspected these premises officers have admitted that the site would probably not prove suitable for the type of structure which they are planning.
 Active anticipation in the 60th anniversary of the founding of the K. of c. was voted last night by the council with Atty James Hen ebry being named chairman of the committee to arrange a suitable ccmmemorat.on. In view of the fact that native of Waterbury, the late Rev. Michael J. McGivney founded the K of c. in New Haven in 1882, Waterbury Knights always take an active interest in anniver- sary programs.
 The event will be celebrated the latter part of March.

The Procurement Assignment Service was established by execu- tive order of the President in Co., toher, 1941, and is under the d.rec- ticn Of a committee of physicians with Dr. Frank H. Lahey, of Boston, President of the Am"r' 'can Medical Association, as chairman.
 The Service was established fer the purpose of maintaining a com- plete list of all physicians, dentists and veterinarians in the nation. This tabulation includes detailed information as to age, physical con- dition, professional qualifications and availability for service in the military, naval, civil and industrial agencies of the country. All agen- cieS which utilize the services of these individuals will make requisi- tion upon the Procurement and Assignment Service for their person nel during the war.
 In order that the national needs may be supplied with as little dis location of civilian medical care as 10 PoooADACs llootIlGd1o III SOAlIlCOC-SuG will be canvassed and asked to state the minimum number of physicians required to maintain adequate care. In the same manner the needs of schools, industrial and public health organizations and other agencies both military and civilian will be surveyed.
 Dr. Barker said, in comm enting on his new appointments: The or ganization and resources of the Con- necticut State Medical Society will be made available to carry out the important purposes of the Procure ment and Assignment Service. Phy- sicians from various parts of the state will serve on a state commit tee that will direct the activities of the Service in Connecticut.
 We will make every effort to maintain the present high level of civilian medical services in Con- necticut and to meet the demands of the war effort simultaneously"

The increased number of men called by the Selective Service boards for military duty and plans for additional increases in such calls, together with an already de veloping shortage of men, has caused local factory heads to begin planning to place women in mems jobs.
 We are already. starting to use women on some jobs formerly done by men only', said Rodney Chase, public relations director for the Chase Brass & Copper CO. We are now engaged in making a careful study of the whole employment sit uation so that we can, when neces- sary, transfer many more women to work which has previously been done exclusively by men. Our study is still in an early stage, but we realize that there is grave prcb- lem ahead and we want to be ready to meet it.
 The American Brass Co.,, it was reported, plans to use women for the first time at the Metal Hose branch and perhaps in other branches and departments that hitherto have been almost exclusive ly male.
 The Scovill Mfg. Co. is under stood also to be considering replace ment of men by women in some jobs.
 | Of significance is declaration by John J. Driscoll, executive secretary of the Waterbury Brass Workers union, that in cases where women are given mems jobs, the union will insist that they be given mems pay Such a provision, he said, has al- ready been agreed to by the Bridge port Brass Go.
 The unicn will seek to have such a clause inserted in its new contract with the American Brass Go. The present contract expires and nego- tiations toward new agreement are expected to start within a week or | two.
 Plans to extend the draft radius to call in many men who have pre- viouSly been deferred will also affect the. city's smaller factories. Selec- tive Service classifications are al- ready being changed in scores ot cases and many more such reclas- sifications loom within the next few months.

 David F.
