WOMEN MAKE GOOD
REPLACING MALE
employees OF ARMY

Washington, d. G. (ILNS).-The
half million women who have replaced
male Army employees to release men
of draft age have made an outstand
ing record since the order permitting
their employment was issued year
ago Aug IA, the War Department
said.
More than half million civilian
women are now engaged in clerical,
administrative, industrial and me-
chanical jobs for the Army. They COM
prise SO percent of all civilian en-
ployes, as compared with 25 percent
before the order was issued.
Patterson Lauds Women
In a congratulatory message to the
Army's women employees Robert P.
Patterson, Undersecretary of War,
said.
"The women Of America have re-
sponded ably and gallantly to the call
them. Nowhere is this more evident
than in the plants operated by the
War Department. They have sup
planted men at the bench and the
lathe; they are doing civilian work in
/ the nine Service Commands efficiently
and in increasing numbers.
"In the arsenals, in the ports of
embarkation, in the motor centers, in
all the War Department installations;
their skills are invaluable and their
devotion to duty is proven. They are
testing guns, making ammunition, fix
ing motors, sewing uniforms, inspect
ing ordnance, driving trucks, doing
many of the thousand and one jobs
that are necessary to keep the ma
chinery of war moving.
400 Different Skills
81 salute them for their faithful
ness, their cheerful courage and their
/ patriotism"
Women comprise more than IS per-
cent Of the Army service forces civil
ian personnel in Washington and more
than 80 percent of the employees of
field establishments. The Ordnance
Department has 106,673 women en-
ployes, the Signal Corps about 10000
and the Army Air Forces 25,000.
More than 400 different skills are
performed by women for the Army
from the expert food consultant tc
the Quartermaster General to girl
messengers. In addition to training
given on the job, training has been
provided in schools to thousands OF
women, with the cooperation of the
United States Office Of Education.

Nation Strongly Against
Conscription of Women,
MWC Official Says

New York City (ILNS). Feeling is
strong against drafting of women in
this country and unless labor condi-
tions demand it, the United States will
manage with volunteer service during
the war, Miss Bess Bloodworth, a
member of the women's advisory COM
mittee of the War Manpower Commis-
sion told the American Women's As
sociation here.
Miss Bloodworth said the women's
advisory committee had obtained lit
tie cooperation from labor and en-
ployers IN carrying out the commit
tees pleas to solve various problems
of working women.
Points on which its program had
been ignored, she said, We're: health
examinations, the avoidance Of en-
ploying women with young children
and recommendation for employ
ment of more men over As. Many
pregnant women are doing hard man
ual work and there are not enough
agencies to care for the young chill
dren of working mothers, she said.

THE LESSON
BY RUTH TAYLOR

Most people talk about the last war
as though nothing came out of it.
They forget that there was time be-
fore the First World War, and that
that sanguinary struggle changed
their lives completely.
Debt, depression, new quarrels in
place of old, broken lives, disjointed
relationships, these came out of the
war = but so did idealism, awakened
social conscience, broadening of
knowledge, of opportunity, self-de-
termination of individuals.
But the real benefit from the last
war was the lesson we have slowly
learned, and which it has taken this
war to bring home. AS man suddenly
wakens to the meaning of what he
studied as a child so we as nation
are just coming to realize what we
learned in the holocaust a quarter of
century ago - the lesson which, if
had we put its precepts into practice,
might have given the world a peace
lasting long enough to prove the
futility of war.
We have learned that patriotism is
not measured by power; that love of
country thrives on oppression and that
man will fight more zealously for his
faith than for his possession.
We have learned that we are not
the only people, that there are no
Herrenvolk except in their own eyes,
that the aristocracy among nations
consists of those who are willing to
take responsibility for protecting the
rights of the weak.
We have learned that we can't solve
problem by ignoring it, that what
menaces the freedom of some menaces
the freedom of all.
We have learned never again to stop
fight before it is won and not to be
maudlin with those who came whining
for mercy when they are losing, but
who are merciless when their side is
on top.
We have learned to beware those
who never stand on their own actions,
but who always seek scapegoats, who
always have an alibi ready when they
are caught.
We have learned that more power
full than Invading armies" is the
power of hope for the future. We won
the battle behind the lines with the
Fourteen Points. That we did not win
the peace was due not to the clever
ness of others but to our own stupid
ity.
We have learned that no nation
liveth unto itself alone - that be-
cause we tried to live alone, walking
out of the world, we had to pass
through a period Of distress before we
could again have chance to help es-
tablish the kind of world in which we
want to live.
A lesson came out of the last war.
We have been long in learning it and
our education has been costly but we
can at last say, in the words of Kip
ling after another war, "let us admit
it fairly as business people should.
We have had no end of lesson. 1t
will do us no end of good"

EXTENSION OF
MILITARY RULE PERIL
TO CIVIL LIBERTIES

New York City (ILNS). 1.-THE in
trusion of military authority into the
civilian life of the nation is the most
danger to our civil liberties at pres
ent," declares DR.. Robert E. Cushman,
Professor of Government at Cornell
University
The civil liberties that are threat
ened today are not the same ones that
were endangered during the first
World War, according to Dr. Cushman
in new edition of the Public Affairs
Pamphlet, Safeguard Our Civil Lib
critics, just published by the Public
Affairs Committee, 80 Rockefeller
Plaza, New York.
The special military areas estab-
lished by the Army and the enforced
evacuation of thousands of American
citizens from these sections to federal
relocation centers cause the author to
believe that we appear, during the
present war, to have abandoned the
rule, that martial law cannot validly
be in force side by side with civilian
law.
Warns on Martial Law
eve should watch with jealous sus-
picion and concern" he says, "this
tendency to supplant civil authority
by martial law. Serious danger lies in
this development"
In the field of free speech DR.. Cush-
man finds no serious problems at pres
ent, although nearly 5000 persons
were prosecuted for alleged unlawful
speeches, publications, or meetings
during the last war.
And the brutal treatment of aliens
by federal officials, which was a ma
tional scandal during the last war,
has not been repeated. "On the con-
trary," declares Wr. Cushman, Eek
traordinary pains are being taken by
the government to extend to aliens
and enemy alien fair and reasonable
treatment"
Diseased" Public Opinion Seen
The pamphlet utters another warn
ing, which comes, unfortunately, too
late for the citizens of Detroit, Los
Angeles, and Beaumont. DR.. Cushman
cautions against "an intolerant public
opinion which clamors for the sup
preston of minority rights" We have
succumbed again to what he calls a
diseased" public opinion which whips
whole communities into emotional
frenzies and causes them to lose their
capacity for thoughtful judgment.

Yet the domestic picture has anoth-
er bright spot. According to the
pamphlet, the recent actions of the
Supreme Court in reversing itself in
two cases involving the Jehovah's
Witnesses and in refusing to cancel
the naturalization of the Communist,
William Schneiderman, are steps that
enlarge and strengthen the safe
guards which protect our liberties.
