Catholic Charities Drive
Now Totals 1921, 800

At the end of the first week
of Archbishop Curley's 100000
campaign for Catholic Charities
and a new boys high school,
twenty Of the 7S parishes of the
archdiocese of Baltimore had
reached or exceeded the quotas
assigned to them. Total contri-
buttons at that time-last Friday
night-amounted to 1921, 800. The
Archbishop and other leaders Of
the movement feel confident that
the goal Of 100000 will be
reached without fail this week,
since nearly go parishes have not
finished their canvassing of men,
bers. Even some Of those who
have reached their quota are con-
tinuing the work, as the quota of
expectations did not equal the
adult membership of any parish,
but was based on an estimated
percentage of the number that
might be expected to respond IA
vorably to the appeal.
The funds will be used ~ to
meet the anticipated deficit of
100000 in the budget of the
Catholic Charities of Baltimore
and (2) to increase the building
fund which Archbishop Curley is
holding to finance the construc-
ton of a new Catholic Boys
High School as soon as possible
after the war, when building re-
strictions will be removed. The
school is much needed for the
benefit of boys whose parents can
not afford the tuition fees re-
quired by the present high schools.
It will provide a complete high
school curriculum of academic
studies. scientific courses and vo-
cational training.

Employed Wife
Does Not Affect
Husbands Status
Women Workers Are
Needed In Canneries And
Essential Industry

Women who refuse to engage
in any sort of employment be-
cause they believe it will affect
the Selective Service status of
their husbands are hindering the
war effort because of this en-
tirely mistaken impression, Col.
Henry C. Stanwood, Selective
Service director for Maryland,
stated in conjunction with the
War Manpower Commissions an
nouncement that women are being
sought to full-time or part-time
work in the canneries of the State
this summer.
Col. Stanwood emphasized his
statement with this assertion, "a
man whose wife is employed will
not be drafted one bit quicker
than a man whose wife is not
employed, ALL other things being
equal"
In cooperation with the VINO
campaign to recruit women work
ers for the canneries and for
essential industry, Col. Stanwood
drew this conclusion from the
VINO report that some women
believe they can delay their hus-
bands induction into the armed
forces if they do not go to work,
ANY woman who refuses to take
employment in a defense plant or
other essential industry, because
she thinks her husband is more
likely to be drafted if she is
working, has an entirely mistaken
impression. Financial dependency
of a wife is no longer considered
a basis for deferment. A working
wife and a non-working wife are
considered the same as far as
draft classification of their hus-
bands is concerned"
The only men entitled to defer
ment because Of dependency, it
was explained, are those with
children conceived before Pearl
Harbor or men whose induction
would cause "great and unusual
hardship" on their dependents.
Unusual hardship" is interpreted
as applying equally to women who
are able to work but do not get
jobs and to women who work.
The fact that some refuse to get
employment while others have
jobs, does not alter the draft
status of their husbands.
