Women Back Universal
Service

Many women are going to bat for univer-
sal service act. The latest organization to
take UP the fight is group in New York
headed by Eh1esta Parlow which has pledged
Secretary Of War S1inson and Secretary Of
Navy Knox its aid and assures these gentle
men that they will organize women to help
get the Austin Wadsworth bill out of commit
tee state by state
In the recent past two powerful women's
groups, the National Federation of Business
and Professional Women and the American
Association OF University Women, have rec
commended that women be drafted for the
women's branches of the military service.
While the New York group does not plan
to call for a draft of women for the armed
forces, it endorses the proposal Of the Austin
Wadsworth bill requiring all men from 10
to IS and women from 10 to so, not actually
in the armed services to aid the war effort
in noncombatant capacity.
Secretary Stmson has said that they have
started their campaign at a strategic time
to offset a pre-invasion 1etdown in morale,
which reminds him, he told the women, of
the situation in the last war when word went
forth that the "Yanks are coming and
everybody climbed into the grandstand to
watch the show.
The women of the country can bring the
solution of the nanpower problem nearer by
volunteering not only for service in the arm
ed forces but in any activity associated with
the war effort 1t is to be hoped that the
movement started in New York will spread
rapidly throughout all states.

Our Chief Aim
DOdging A Duty

Are We as people becoming so smugly
conplacent that We actually endanger our
war cause and its success? Are we taking too
much for granted and assuming that the war
is all but won and are laying down on the
job at home? Is it true the unity that existed
two years ago, when the peril was gravest
has disappeared and we are now so enga ged
with fancy dreams of postwar projects that
We overlook the pressing need to defeat the
enemy and win the peace first?
Assistant Secretary of War Patterson be-
leves that we have lost our realization of the
reality of war General Hershey, director OF
selective service, and Admiral Cooke, deputy
chief of staff to the Commander-in-C Chief, are
in full agreement with him. They recently
voiced their views and fears at Times Hall
in New York, with Mr.. Patterson leading the
discussion
He decried the boom property and unpre-
cedented spending INDUCED in by the public,
and declared the civilian attitude, based on
the assumption that the war is practically
over might lead the men in the fighting forces
to feel that they alone have to take the rap"
Both by word of mouth as uttered by SER
vice men returned home on furlough and by
letters from men in foxholes it is evident that
this feeling is widespread on the battle fronts
And to the extent that we at home have been
more willing to avoid than share the work on
the home front it is justified. This willingness
to dodge war work has been manifest from
the day the first effort to organize the home
front was made. If any doubt this, they need
only look over the incomplete rosters of help
ers at the filter center, the air raid warning
towers, the control room, or of any unit in
the defense set-up to be convinced. Whining
ton had not enough volunteers at any time
adequately to man any staff established for
war duty at home.
And Wilmington is not materially different
from any community in the country. Similar
shortages existed wherever defense units were
needed Now that the need for home defense
has all but DISAPPEARED we are taking it for
granted that because our shores are practical
ly safe the enemy is also all but defeated and
there is nothing more for us stay-at-hornes to
do Instead, we ought to be finding jobs that
will implement the victory, and stick to the
jobs we find until the last foe has surrendered
and the peace is secure.
