They appear to hist as "youngsters In search of a goad time," pursuing their so cial life in the factory work rooms and refusing to wear the clothes proper for safety. All this brought a big chuckle from Mary Anderson, who as head of the -women's division in this war as in the last is charged with idmg the Integration of woman: P U1"J, "It would seem Mr. West is one of those men who didn't want women in the plant in the first place," she smiled. "He is like a lot of foremen who never having worked with women are afraid of them. They complain: ' 'How can we work women? We can't cuss em out. Later, West issued a written statement to the press, emphasiz ing that his interview remarks "applied to the minority rather than the majority of women work- ers. ) "On the whole, oar women employes are doing an excellent Job," West declared in the state ment "The ase of women has proved so satisfactory in general that we expect within a few months to have 51 per cent or more of ear entire factory pay roll made ap of women work ers.') Even as she talked a spokesman for the Glenn L. Martin company said "maybe west coast women are different," but as for the wom- 1 en workers at his company's Bal I timore plant, "the majority feel tbey re contributing seriously to the nation's war effort," and are doing a good job, Of course some women are fnv- . . olous, said Miss Anderson. "But all women shouldn't be penalized because a few are privolous and probably flirting. That doesn't ap ply to women alone. There mus' be a man to flirt with. And who can tell who . started the flirta tion?" She suggested perhaps the be' ginning of the problem in West's plant "might be in the employ' ment policy. There has been tendency to hire g'irls right out of school, many of whom are not mature enough to take the work seriously. She added she thought em ployers had 'missed an oppor tunity in not hiring women over St years. Mature women of re sponsibility have as much un derstanding as men of the pres eat setieas conditions, she con tinued. WICHITA, Kas, Aug. 18.-UP)- The women here are doing beau tifuHy.
