The story at the head

Each tells about the same

How does a girl get a job
in politics?
If her interests are politi-
cal, and she thinks it would
be fun to participate in the
excitement of a campaign,
while still earning a living.
how does she go about it?
What are her chances of
getting a job? What are her
= future prospects?
On the last point, her
chances may be very good
indeed. She's taking long
shot chance, at this stage
of the political picture, since
it is obvious that several of
today's presidential hopefuls
will fall by the wayside
before November.
Came Up With "Ike"
Consider, however, the case
of, two such workers, Mrs.
Ann Whitman and Mrs. Mary
Jane McCaffree. Neither had
ever worked in politics
before, when she went to
work in early 1852 at the
Citizens for Eisenhower
headquarters in New York
City.
Mrs. McCaffree was Office
manager of the headquarters.
Mrs. Whitman was secretary
to the man setting up Eli
senhower clubs. At that point
their candidate, Gen. Eisen-
hover, was just a gleam in
the eye of some Republican
politicoes. He was still head
ing NATO forces in Paris.
BY the next January Mr..
Eisenhower was inaugurated
as President. Mrs. Whitman
was his chief secretary at
the White House, and Mrs.
McCaffree was White House
social secretary and personal
secretary to Mrs. Eisenhower.
Although her boss is still a
heartbeat removed from the
White House, Vice President
Nixon's executive secretary,
Rose Mary Woods, is another
case in point.
"Just a Green Kid"
She was "just green kid"
she recalls, when she joined
the wartime trek to Wash
ington, along with thousands
of other girls fresh out of a
commercial high school. Her
first job was in a Govern
ment stenographic pool.
In time she worked into a
secretarial job with the Her.
ter Committee of the House,
where she met the then
fire sh man Representative
Richard Nixon. Mr.. Nixon
offered her a job when he
went to the Senate in 1850.
She has since travelled to
the far corners of the earth
with the Nixons, and she is
generally recognized as a
powerhouse in the Vice Presi-
dents Office.
Not Many Openings
Not everyone, of course,
will be that fortunate. For
one thing, there aren't many
openings in the headquar-
ters of the current crop of
hopefuls. The Democratic
and Republican committees
also report a limited turn
over.
All are unanimous, how
ever, in saying they are al
ways on the lookout for
really top fight" secretarial
talent.
All political offices, of
course, love volunteer work
ers. All get some of them
never enough, they will tell
you.
But the trouble with most
volunteers is that they can't
