GETTING A JOB

This is the strange but unfortunately
not unique story of a woman who wanted
to work, and war industry that needed
her services. They got together at long
last, IN spite of government regulations.
The young lazy Is Une wifi of a soldier
She was employed by a war industry.
and had arranged the time Of her vaca-
ton when she learned suddenly that her
husband was coming home on furlough
probably his last before leaving for
overseas fighting service.
She asked to have her vacation ad-
vanced so that it could be spent with her
husband. The request was refused.
I'm taking it then. anyway" she
warned, and her employer retorted: IF
you do, you're fired"
She did take the time off, spent it with
her husband. and when she returned to
the plant she found that she was dis
charged. So she went to another large
plant where she found an opening. But
under government regulations, the en-
ployer who needed her services could
not offer her a job until she obtained
release from the employer who had dis
charged her.
The employer who had discharged her
was spiteful enough to refuse to give her
a release. And the government agency
TO which she appeale0 COulu nOI ISSUE
her q statement of availability until
her former employer confirmed the dis
charge.
One employer didn't want her because
she was so human as to wish to spend
her husbands last furlough with him
instead of taking her vacation alone
few weeks later after hubby had started
for Italy, France, Australia, Burma or
some other equally unhealthy spoY. The
other employer did want her. But
neither could do anything about it, be-
cause Of regulations designed to assure
that war industries shall obtain all the
manpower that can possibly be made
available to them.
Meanwhile the wife of soldier. dep
endent for her living upon what she can
earn while her husband fights for the
American way of life. couldn't get a
chance to earn anything.
The vicious circle was broken and the
young woman got her job only after
having gone from one office of the gov
ernment agency to another, she found
an administrator with imagination en-
oungh to cut some corners.
If the situation had been left to the
red tape that controlled most of the sub
ordinates who deal with such cases, moth
ing ever would have happened.
If the moral isn't evindent, then the
story has not been told properly.

V-MAH CAMPAIGN

The government is currently engaged
in what SHOULD be the easiest selling
campaign in the world 1t is trying to
persuade all correspondents of fighting
men overseas to send their letters by V
mail.
Most of us probably know already the
great saving of shipping space that v
mail achieves-space that is being filled
by food and medicine and guns and
munitions But those who have not used
V-mail may not realize the many advan
tages it offers:
In the first place it gives the greatest
assurance of delivery. Original letters
are kept at the port of embarkation. If
a ship or plane carrying the microfilm
copies of these letters is destroyed, dup
licate film is made and forwarded i'm
mediately
V-mail also saves the user time. for
it has priority over all mail except of
ficial dispatches. And it costs no more
than ordinary postage.
Many people are using Vmail already
the 100 millionth letter was handled some
weeks ago But the government would
like more business. This is the reason:
If all overseas mail were sent in V-mal
form, it would have the effect of free
ing 25 Liberty ships for fulltime service
in carrying vital cargo.
