CHAPTER 4.
Hire for Wages.

Most women who have husbands
who have gone to the wars are work.
ing women. AS time goes on, the
la classification may also include
men whose wives are able to work
If necessary, but to date it has
reached out only toward those hus-
bands whose wives already have
jobs If you could take care of your
self, the draft board reasons, your
husband could take care of jerry.
But what about job? Most women
who work have found their jobs
mainly in the following fields; social
service, the retail trades, the cloth
Ing industry, the textile mills, the
advertising business, professional
work, teaching, or as a stenographer
or clerk. Some of you may have
had manufacturing and mechanical
jobs. Some of you have worked in
canneries. on farms, on the stage, in
the movies. OF approximately 600
occupations listed in this country,
only about 80 have been closed to
women in the last decade.
But times have changed. Women
are taking over and replacing men
IN jobs rarely done before by the
female OF the species. Hotel elevator
operators, pharmacists in drugstores
taxi drivers, bank tellers, electri-
clans, acetylene welders, milling-ma-
chine operators. riveters, tool
keepers, gage checkers, gear cutters,
turret and engine lathe operators.
Women are replacing men as
f1ngerprint classifiers. Women have
been reported directing landings
and take-offs by radio. There is
one woman now working at an air.
Held office as a meteorologist
The Civil Aeronautics Admins
tration is considering training
women as radio operators. And a
major chemical company is school,
ing a handful of women as its
chemists.
Even the Ford company, which
formerly restricted women to de-
tail jobs connected with the wiring
OF automobile ammeters and gen.
orators, Is this year talking Of ex-
panding the number of women en-
ployes in their new bomber plant
to $4,000. Aviation factories, late

So Your Husbands Gone to War!
BY ETHEL GoRHAM-

machine-shop science, mathematics
blueprints and machine tools.
fAS more and more of the con-
sumer industries vanish, there will
be a new expansion in the other
non-consumer jobs. It is estimated
that If the war continues until the
end of 1943 there will be 1900. 900
women needed in war industry.
Woman power" the economists call
1t, the woman power of American
victory. You can become part of
this woman power" on the produc-
tion line of factory. Gone is the
social stigma of factory work when
so many teachers, nurses and even
socially prominent women are do
ing it. White collar snobbishness
has been wiped out by the influx of
stenographers and saleswomen to
the assembly belt. Moved by
patriotism or by dollars, many wom-
en- who never would have considered
factory work year or two ago are
making application now.
Xxx
Before you hop out of a civilian
job to one in wartime production,
remember first that what often
looks like straight "peacetime" job
may be as important and vital to
winning the war as the more dra-
understanding one Of aircraft pro-
duction or munitions making Sec
ond, that you must look to your
training and be prepared. You are
much more valuable skilled than un-
skilled, and skill doesn't come with
good intention alone. If you have
had industrial training previously or
worked on farm you will be more
adaptable and durable" now. For
instance, girls who were needlework-
ers or hairdressers have proved
especially adaptable for precision
metal work.
There is a training period neces-
sary for almost all skilled jobs. You
can no more go into drafting or
radio service or machine shop work
without some apprenticeship than a
man could. You cannot be used for
immediate replacement where the
job requires time to develop high
skills unless you have some back
ground Of instruction, practice and
information.
Go to one Of the many industrial
schools in the evening, continuing
the while on the job you now hold
during the day. Factories in war
production areas run their own
schools, rather like apprentice
courses. The public school systems
often have their own industrial and
technical evening curricula. There
are technical training schools set up
at various airports, mostly run by
the Government. Courses in air
plane designing. physics, chemical
analysis and drafting are open to
approved applicants. There are
some top-notch legitimate private
schools-but warning! There are
some so-called technical training
schools that won't train you for
anything but writing a tuition check.
Not only the women who have
been industrially trained, but those
practiced in management and per-
sonnel will find . new place for

NEW YORK, Aug ia free

The committee is headed by Ver-

Aerial Freight Trains

Coast-to- coast, nonstop aerial
freight trains, which will switch
their cargo in the sky like railroads
now shift boxcars, were predicted
for the postwar period today by Roy

Coming out of the sky will be

Sees One Dismal Project
There is onc dismal prospect, and
that is the possibility of failure to
handle our postwar problems cor
rectly. Congress must give business
a healthy atmosphere in which to
work, and also we must kill off any
movements to nationalize our trans
portation services and airplane man
ufacturing.
There are people in Washington
today who think aviation manufac-
turing ought to be controlled. We
must resist that to the bitter end
and let initiative blossom in the
hands of the citizens themselves.
