Two Million More Women Needed for War Plants;
Twice That Number Ready Says Census Survey

strictly war workers, but most Of
them were doing things that were
necessary, such as clerking in bak-
cries, or running elevators, or op-
Grating laundry machinery. 1t must
be remembered that the civilian
economy must be kept running, and
that making cartridges and plane
parts are not the only vital services
in wartime.
But it is the women in heavy in
dustry who have come forward to
fill the breech, somewhat to the JOY
Gus surprise of everyone. A sample
list of the work women are doing is
given by Laura Nelson Baker in
WANTED: Women in Industry" She
says women are Sewing uniforms
and barrage balloons, assembling
radio tubes, drafting, wiring assem-
blies for bombers, inspecting, MAX
ing gas masks, riveting, welding,
operating gear cutters, lathes, grind
ers, drill presses and saws. These
are but few of the well-paid jobs
that women are taking over from
men. Often they show men up by
their efficiency"
Many times women have found
better ways to do the operations men
have been doing for years. There
have been many improvements in
working conditions put in for the
benefit of women that will no doubt
remain when men return to the fac
tories. Some of the changes intro
duced are, according to Mrs. Baker:
Safety devices, opportunities to
change posture and position, ma
chimes at the right working height,
and other provisions against fatigue
are now in general practice. Steel
jigs too heavy for women to lift were
replaced with masonic jigs weigh
ing less than one-tenth as much. En-
gineers put new lever on a spin
ming lathe so it could be operated
with 70 per cent less exertion than
before"
So women are able to do things
that used to require strength and en-
durance, by having a few changes

Women with technical educatiOns
are needed in research. Catherine
Ferguson, a graduate of Northwest
ern university, where she majored
in metallurgy, is assisting in the
hunt for new alloys to replace stra-
tegic metals such as nickel and
aluminium. She is shown beside a
furnace in the laboratories of the
General Electric company at
Schenectady, N. Y, reading an elec-
trio pyrometer, or high temperature
thermometer.
made. In fact, strength is becom-
ing less and less important as ma
chimes take over the duties of mus
cles. Overhead cranes carry cast
ings and other parts around from
lathe to lathe, and shop trucks haul
materials and tools about the huge
plants. In really big factories, par
ticularly in the aircraft industry,
the workers ride about in buses.
Even with all these aids, war work
is no "featherbed." In the ship
building yards, for instance, women
do strenuous, dirty work, wearing
cumberous costumes for long hours.
Forty-eight-hour weeks are COM
mon, and overtime is the rule some
places that have been launching
ships at unbelievable rates.
Get Same Pay As Men.
Women shipyard workers are paid
the same scale as men for the same
kind of work. The scale is quite
attractive, too, but the work, as
said before, is hard, and somewhat
dangerous. Every shipyard main
tainS a plant hospital with doctors
and nurses in constant attendance.
Workers are urged to report every
accident, no matter how trivial.
In the aircraft industry, too, many
thousands of women are helping to
turn out the 1000 planes a month
that are needed to smash the Axis.
Airplane manufacturing requires
people able to work to fine toler-
ances, to be amazingly accurate,
and yet speedy. In the modern plane
there are hundreds of operations
necessary, and women are working
at most of them. Except for a few
highly technical jobs, where wom-
en- have not yet been able to get in
the years of experience necessary,
they are doing everything from
drafting to test-piloting. At the pres
ent pace, women will be able to
make complete airplanes without
any help from men!
This is a highly paid field, with
much overtime work. Most women
engaged in it have taken consider
able training before entering, and

Must Replace Men
At Lathes and FORCES
To Supply Armies
BY ELLIOTT PINE

Released by Western Newspaper Union
Nearly two million more wom-
en- must be recruited for war
jobs before the end of the year,
says the war manpower COM
mission. This is as many as
entered industry N all of the
twelve months between March,
1912, and March, 1913. In that
period 100000 women took
over factory work of all sorts,
as well as transportation and
communications tasks that used
to be considered exclusively
mems fields.
These two million women will
have to be found, along with 100000
older men, handicapped workers
and others not now employed, if
vital production is not to lag in the
victory phase of the great conflict,
VINO officials warn. The nation has
every confidence that women will
come forward to man the machines.
According to census bureau sur
veys, there are about four million
women available and willing to
work, although these potential work.
ers have only been registered in a
few large cities. There are no doubt
many thousands ready to help if
they knew they were needed.
Women seem to be able to do al
most any work that men can. Skep-
tics have had to admit, time after
time, that they were wrong. For
many years women have been en-
ployed in light factory work, like
sorting parts, packing, dipping choc-
olates, canning vegetables, and so
on, but whoever expected to see
them in roundhouses, wiping loco
motives, shoveling sand, or operat-
ing huge cranes and lathes in ship
yards, or doing welding? Well,
women are doing all these things,
and doing them well. They have
had to learn to use unfamiliar tools,
and new ways of thinking and act
ing, and they have done it in hurry.
It's in the heavy industries that
the entrance of women is most star
ting. Figures show that during a
one-year period employment of
women in munitions increased SO per
cent, SO per cent in steel making, so
per cent in electrical manufacturing,
62 per cent in chemicals, 1854 per
cent in shipbuilding, and 1874 per cent
in aircraft factories!
These huge increases were not in
jobs generally called light. While
there has been plenty of need for
help in all the clerical and light fac
tory lines, the real openings have
been in the heavy mechanical
trades. 1t stands to reason that
with heavy metal construction null
tiplied many times by war demands,
and millions of men going to war,
there must be a great lack of tech
nically trained employees. Women
have been the answer in Europe and
they have been the answer here.
They have cheerfully gone to train
ing schools, obeyed rigid shop disci-
pline, worked long hours at hard and
unaccustomed tasks, and earned
high praise from hard-bitten execu-
tives. Despite worry about lab
senteeism" in some quarters, wom-
en- have not been away from their
jobs unnecessarily, in most cases.
More Than Is Million.
At the end of March, there were
Is, 100000 women gainfully en-
ployed, according to Chairman Nc
Mutt of the War Manpower COM
mission. Of these 4,1OO,OO0 were in
non-agricultural work, so about a

Locksmiths Not Taught
In Schools; Experts Few

Although there are $4,000 estab-
Gshments in the United States
which can duplicate a key, there
are only 1000 bona fide locksmiths
who have mastered the secrets of
all lock combinations. There are
no schools for locksmiths, no trade
or correspondence courses. The
art of locksmithing usually is
passed on from father to son, and
the secrets of the profession are
carefully guarded. Locksmithing
requires great skill and sometimes
courage, particularly when safe
must be opened after being
spiked" with nitroglycerin by I'M

Of Ration Books
$4,000 Yet to Be
Processed';; More
Volunteers SOUGHT

The District Office of Price Ad.
ministration today called for addi-
tional volunteers to help process the
new No. 8 War Ration Books, and
announced that many local resi-
dents will have to wait from several
days to a week longer for the new
coupons.
According to the OPA's schedule.
all No. books were to have been
placed in the mail by last night
for delivery to local applicants. In
stead, the OPA said today, many
will not be in the mail until tomor-
row or Saturday, and may not be
delivered until sometime next week.
About $4,000 of the books still
must be "processed" and prepared
for mailing, the OPA reported.
An OPA spokesman assured local
residents that all the books will be
delivered here before any of the
coupons in them become valid.
The spokesman further requested
that local residents refrain from
telephoning the OPA Mailing Gen.
ter to inquire about the delay. This
only causes additional delay, the
spokesman said.
Volunteers VIII owish to help with
the processing should seek addi-
tional information from Mrs. Clew-
ell Sykes at District OPA headquar-
tiers, Ordway 6700. About 60 volun-
teers now are working on the day
shift, while about 100 are helping
at night. The OPA would like to
double the size of each OF these
crews.
