Business Women
Hear Miss Hickey

That women have humanized in
dustry was the opinion expressed
last night by Miss Margaret A.
Hickey, president Of the National
Federation Of Business and Profess
sional Women's Clubs and chairman
|of the Womens Advisory Commit
tee, War Manpower Commission.
Addressing dinner meeting Of
the District Business and Profess
sional Women's Club at the YWCA,
she declared, Better lighting, more
adequate restrooms, improved eat
ing and health facilities, recreation
programs are some Of the by
products in an increased number Of
factories to be enjoyed by many
more workers Of both sexes as re-
suit OF employment of large NUM-
bers Of women. Old driving, polic-
ing tactics have given way to more
intelligent use Of human resources
inside factories. Truths long ago
known to educators now permeate
the thinking Of management"
The speaker also discussed the
postwar position Of women. She
envisioned the number Of women
gainfully employed as being in ex-
cess OF the number hired prior to
hostilities.
Public opinion will increasingly
expect single women to earn their
livelihood. Fewer women will step
from commencement platforms to
the homes they envision. For many
single girls marriage viii be impos-
sible because of war casualties. II
our employment practices are to be
democratic, then the right of
women to work is just as inviolate
as that Of q mans" Miss Hickey
emphasized.

ish government instigated a recruit
ment campaign through films, post
ers and exhibitions when the nurse
shortage first struck Great Britain
in 1943 Each service of the armed
forces has its own nurses, she add
ed, with the Civil Nurse Reserve,
under the Ministry of Labor, in
cluding men and women. The great
est drain on nurses Is in factory
nurseries and maternity and tuber-
cular wards. An even more current
problem is replacing those sent on
overseas service for three years and
eight months.
The founder OF Children OF Fight
Ing Forces, Lady Butterfield en-
phasized the Importance of further
ing better international relations
through young people. She urged
that organized work of school chill
dren in this country be distributed
abroad to foster good will. The war
relief worker described how over
$4,000 British children turned out to
view an exhibit made by Chicago
youngsters. Films of the exhibition
were shown over England.
