in store for Germany, Japan, and
Italy. But the SOLDERING announce.
ment from Moscow that Stain had

still remained uppermost in the

Lacking official Qualification. two
interpretations were placed upon
the Russian announcement:
]. That Russia was further indi.

2. That the Quebec talks were
concerned only with the Pacific

adelphia) area during January,
1943, 40 per cent were made by
women. That certainly proves
that the women of Philadelphia
mean business! They intend to
20 into the war factories and
stay there until victory"
Discussing the ned for women
war workers throughout the
country, Mr.. McNutt said:
eve cannot wait until the
manpower problem becomes ac-
ute in any area. We must pre-
pare for it so that we lose no
time in getting on with the war.
"By the end of 1943, we shall
have almost Is million women
in jobs in all industries. We
shall need the housewife, the
school girl, the college graduate
49, every woman whose family
can possibly spare her. The
more women we have at work,
the sooner we shall win the
war, Victory is in your hands!
You, the women of America. BY
taking a war production job or
an essential civilian job, you are
backing up your loved ones on
the battlefield just as surely as
though you were there in the
front lines with them.
Moreover, when you take
job in your own communlty's
war production, you save your
community the trouble Of bring
ing in another worker from an
other area. By kccping home
folks in local industries, we
avoid dangerous crowding OF
workers into any given area and
thus make the best use of our
housing, medical and transporta-
ton facilities.
"What is n war job for a wom-
an? The answer is: Any job,
with a few exceptions, that ordl-
narily would be filled by man.
In fact, out of 10 hundred war
occupations, only So are insult
able for women. And ! stand
now in the midst Of visible sup
porting evidence of that fact
actual photographs of women
doing the job-the thousand and
one jobs that must be done TO
bring quick and complete VIC
tory. These pictures of our wom-
en- soldiers of production are as
sembled into one great and tre-
mendously informative exhibit
which occupies an honored pos
ition here at the Franklin insti-
+,1to. This exhibit is, indeed, a
fitting ornament to this monu-
mcnt to Benjamin Franklin-the
practical patriot, scientist and
statesman! If every woman IN
Philadelphia will come to see the
exhibit. I am sure they will find
it convincing answer to the
question: "Can | help win the
war;" Women are needed now,
not only in the factories, but in
necessary civilian jobs - in
transportation, restaurants, hos
pitfalls, social welfare, laundries,
dairies, and other lines of civil
ian service.
"Not every community needs
women workers yet Some areas
still have unemployed. In some
areas enough men are still avail
able. In these areas there is time
for special training that may fit
women for even better jobs. The
local United States employment
service can tell you whether

Newman Addresses
Saturday Lunch
Clubs Final

At its closing meeting of the
season, the Saturday Lunch Club,
famous Mill City discussion group,
had as its speaker, Cecil Newman,
publisher.
Newman's subject, "America Has
Failed to Meet the Issue" outlined
the causes which, in his opinion,
have given rise to the racial unrest
and tensions now prevalent in the
U. S. He also suggested that the
best minds of the white and Negro
groups come together and plan to
work out their common problems.
Much of the racial conflict in
America, the publisher said, is
due to the failure of educational
mediums and established sources
of information to give the masses
OF white people true and accurate
information about the Negro. The
Negroes fine record as a citizen
and as a contributor to the coun-
try's wealth and progress has been,
in general, ignored. Mr.. Newman
regarded text books, the press, ra-
dlo and motion pictures as arch
