to run the Government. The plan
is an inevitable (sic) one as, with
the great influx of girls from all
parts of the country into the Capital,
It is now the greatest pool of
beauty and potential talent in the
world"
Also indicative of, we'll. perhaps
the casualness of Mr.. Goldwyns
research, is the statement
"Secretaries are said to be ar
irving in Washington now at the
rate Of 5000 day, in answer to
constant radio appeals for more,

and last week the Government is
reported to have engaged 10000 of
them in one day"
At 10000 week, much less 10000
in single day, the city would be
more crowded than it is. And 1t
would not take long to have other
cities begging a few OF the girls
back.
The girls, when chosen by Gold
wyn's talent scouts, will be billed IS
the most glamorous secretaries In
Washington"
