Women On War Jobs Earn
Respect And Admiration

over that only certain jobs were
suitable for women who wanted
to be treated with respect. And
that, Of course, was a silly, un-
reasonable hangover from the
past.
Because job doesn't give any
human being dignity, or the right
to respect and Difference. The
person himself merits or doesn' t
merit respect. And a woman who
merits respect will get it If she is
working in over-alls in war

any one of the hundreds. Of jobs
that used to be considered men S
work.
When a woman doesn't get re-
spect from the world-it is for
one reason, and one alone. She
doesn't demand it. She doesn't
insist on her right to be regarded
as a fine type of woman, deserv-
ing admiration and respect.
The insistence, of course, isn't
vocal. 1t comes from a woman's
conduct, her bearing and her at

Famed Gloria
Will Inherit
FortuneSoon
BY CYNTHIA LOWRY

NEW YORK, Jan. - R - A
slender, raven-haired young ma
tron will emerge completely next
month from an uncomfortable CO.
coon spun of great wealth and
bitter family battles.
Gloria Vanderbilt de Cicco will
reach her 21st birthday on Febru-
airy 20 and become mistress of
the four and one-half million dol
lar fortune which made her, for
the first Is years of her life, the
central figure in a series of legal
Wrangles between her mother and
her paternal aunt.
The annual accounting, filed last
week in surrogate's court by her
guardian, Thomas B. Gilchrist,
valued the estate at $4,3e3 ,O99. A
final accounting will be made on
her birthday, Gilchrist said TODAY.
The millions came from a trust
fund set up by her grandfather,
Cornelius Vanderbilt, which she
inherited from her father, Regi-
maid c. Vanderbilt, sportsman SON
of the founder of the great rail-
road fortune. Her father died when
she was year old.
For the first 10 years of her
life, the chunky little girl lived
the life of any child born to
wealth.
But in December, 1884, her IA.
theirs sister, Mrs. Harry Payne
Whitney, sculptress and racing en-
thusiast who, died two years ago.
brought supreme court action for
the custody OF little Gloria, cnarg-
ing that Mrs. Gloria Vanderbilt
was unsuitable to have the care
Of the child. The action was sue
cessful although Mrs. Vanderbilt
appealed the decision up to the
U. S. Supreme court.
Sums, ranging downward from
$4,000 year, were allocated by
the court for ner support, with
en- allowance given her mother.
Gloria was is when she met de
Clcco, son Of an Italian-born Long
Island truck farmer, and the fol-
lowing year, they were married
iii Santa Barbara, Calf, in a cere-
mony with Hollywood trimmings.
Two years later she was quoted
as saying I'm proud to be Mrs.
Pat de Cicco-I was never proud
of being Vanderbilt. I can
see now what trouble is for. It's
to make you realize what you've
got when you're happy. That's
why I don't blame my aunt and
mother any more for dragging me
through that trial"

The 1945 girl is going to be as
natural as Mother Eve-well, al
most. She'll be slim, shapely,

That's the prediction of some of
Americas leading beauty con-
noisseurs, and they ought to know.
Most of them agree that today's
Eve may play up her good points
with a little retouching but she'll
look natural in spite of makeup.
She won't adopt the boyisn bob or

World War I. Her bust and hip

Johnny Shaw, who brought new
instrumental trio to CoStin's a short
while back, was bit perturbed on
opening night. Mrs. Costin took one
look when the boys arranged them
selves to do their first tune, then
stalked out of the door, movie
bound, before she heard a single
note. But when Johnny finally
heard the story behind it all, every
thing was all right. Seems Mrs. C.
, is marked woman, marked by an
opening night experience she does
, not want to repeat.
Once upon time in the not too
distant past, musical trio was en-
gagged to entertain at Costin's, hired
not only sight unseen, but also sound
unheard. Old friends and old GUS
toners were invited in droves, or at
q least in numbers enough to pack the
5 place. AT the proper time the
gypsy musicians" arrived Mrs. c.
had her first qualms at the sight of
them, because, she remembers, they
. certainly were ugly. Then they
/: started to play and she. ran scream
f. ing into the street Really She
went to the movies, thinking she was
. a ruined woman, in a business way,
and not knowing that Mr. Costin
would be firm enough to toss the
gypsies out after three tunes.
He wasn't too upset; just happy
that DR.. Hans Kinder, who had been
in earlier, had a symphony orches-
ira to rehearse that night and
couldn't stay for the debacle. But
1T made such an impression on Mrs
Costin that she couldn't even stay
around for Johnny Shaw's debut,
eSen if he has been making good
music around town for long time.
