Heppner Gazette Times, Heppner, Oregon 'Women in Defense' Move Brought Home Taking inventory of the women of Thursday, November 27, 1941 We Extend a Cordial Invitation to All Wheat League Members to Attend the Meeting in Heppner, Dec. 4-5-6 Morrow County Grain Growers Incorporated Heppner Lexington lone the United States because of acute ness of the defense need and because of the fact that the United States is technically at war even though no declaration of war has been offi cially made, was incentive for a meeting at La Grande Monday at which Lucy E. Rodgers, county tchool superintendent, was made sub-chairman for Morrow county. The meeting was addressed by Sadie Orr Dunbar, Oregon chairman re cently appointed by Governor Spra gue, arid Mr. Hindman of Washing ton, D. C, from the office of pro duction management. Mr. Hindman stated that the av erage life of a British maritime ves sel is 48 hours, and that the United States must have a vessel ready for launching every two hours, Mrs. Rodgers, who attended the meeting, reported. She said Mr. Hindman's figures showed that the United States is to have at once an army of 3,000,000 men with an army of 7,000,000 men as the ultimate goal. Further, it was reported, it takes ten production workers to equip one man on the military defense line, or 30,000,000 production workers to equip an army of 3,000,000 men. We have now but 2,850,000 workers in shops and factories, less than one tenth the number needed to equip an army of 3,000,000. It takes two people working on farms to provide food for one man in the military. It will take, then, 3fi.000.000 woduction workers to equip and feed an army of 3,000,000 men. As men are moved into the mili tary ranks their places in production are ultimately going to be filled with women. Oregon was the first state in the union to make a survey of its man ower and that is why this state was able to get so many of the con tracts for defense production. Now Oregon proposes to be the first state in the union to make a survey of her woman power. This survey pro poses to find out: 1. The name and location of every woman in the state over 18 years of age. 2. The kind of work each is now engaged in. 3. The supplementary skills each woman has. 4. The women who would be pre pared to accept training for defense pi eduction work. No one will in any way be offered i job by the survey. It is being iiade for the sole purpose of locat ing our women and finding out what they can do. The names will be fil ed in the office of the state employ ment bureau so that if and when the need ajrises it will be a simple and speedy matter to locate the workers needed. Mrs. Rodgers asks that all wo men's organizations of the county be ready to assist in making this survey for Morrow county which will be launched soon after the be ginning of the new year. Married man wants work on ranch or sheep.
