Bride Of Army Officer
Army Improves Plan to Enroll
Women as Privates, Officers

ton to the ATS. the British
have a women's auxiliary air
force and a women's Royal
Naval service, both OF which
are uniformed branches of the
respective services.
The daily monitor. (Mount Clemens, Mich.) 1940-1942, 1942-01-03

Women volunteers in khaki
uniforms would be enrolled as
privates and officers of the
United States Army under a
plan approved today by the
War Department and now
awaiting congressional action.
A uniformed women's auxili-
airy corps to serve directly with
the army in the aircraft warn
ing service and in clerical and
other non-combatant posts was
recommended by Secretary of
War Stimson in a letter to the
House Military Affairs Com
mittee. His letter endorsed a
bill by Rep. Edith Nourse
Rogers (R-Mass), calling for
establishment of the feminine
corps.
HEARING SOON
Stimson said the size Of the
Womens Army would depend
upon military requirements and
estimated its cost during 1912
at $3,0O0.OOO. Chairman May
(D-Ky) had said previously
that hearings on the bill would
begin after the War Department
gave an opinion on its merits.
Modelled in general on the
auxiliary territorial service in
which thousands of British
women are enrolled, the AM
erican counterpart would pay
privates $2l a month, the same
as army men. Women officers
and commissioned officers
would be chosen on merit,
trained in special -chools and
granted pay in line with army
pay for similar posts.
UNITS AT CAMPS
Units of the women's corps
would be stationed at each
large army post or camp. They
would live in barracks anc, be
subject to military discipline.
Outside of several drill hours
weekly they would do clerical
and secretarial Jobs and work
as teleprinter operators, cooks,
bakers, dieticians, pharmacists,
telephone operators and hos
pital and laboratory technicians.
Stimson indicated that the
women's corps would take over
entirely the present aircraft
warning system operated by
civilian volunteers. In Britain
the ATS. also operates fire
control apparatus of anti-air-
craft batteries, working with
gunners under fire.
BRITAIN USES WOMEN
Under new British laws for
mobilization Of human re-
sources, women may be drafted
into the armed forces in Eng.

EXPLOSION AT
MUNITION PLANT

Three persons were painfully
burned last week in accidents at
explosive plants in Elkton area.
BY dropping bottle of powder
while at work at the plant Of the
Triumph Explosives, Inc, Chandler
Kellam of Elkton was very pain
fully burned about the legs. He was
taken to Union Hospital for treat
ment.
Miss Ann Pyott, 20 years old of
Kennett Square, an employee at the
plant of the National Fireworks
Company, near Elkton, was painfully
injured in slight explosion.
Miss Doris Walbert, % years of
age, of Betterton, was SO seriously
injured by an explosion that her re-
covery is doubtful.
One hand was SO badly shat
tered that it was necessary to
amputate the member. She was also
terribly burned about the face and
eyes. A sad feature in connection
with the accident was the fact that
Miss Walbert was to have been
married the next day to Pvt r. Lee
Robinson, Jr., who arrived from a
camp in Louisiana on furlough,
to find his bride-to-be in the hos
pital, in a critical condition.
