PXGE EIGHT 1IEDF0RD IttJL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON, MONDAY, OCTOBER 10, "1932. E OF IS By EVA NEALON HAMILTON Among the foremost leaders In Med ford of the rapidly growing campaign tor reflection of the "Great Engi neer" e president it the United States, stands a slender, little, dark haired woman, Mr. K. O. Hansen. She la an engineer too and as vice chairman of the women division of the Engineers' National Hoover committee will do all that she can In southern Oregon to keep President Hoover "on the Job." Mrs. Hansen, formerly an employe of the California Oregon Power com pany here, Is one of the few feminine engineers in the United States. She received her degree In electrical en gineering at the University of Califor nia In 1021. the first woman to be graduated in that department at the very large southern school, and ac cording to reports here, the last one up to date. Mrs. Hansen has lived In Medford for the past eight years. She la not practicing her profession at the pres ent time, having deserted practical engineering to guide the whims of Iher four children and to help them scale the difficult grades of life, which also demand a clear, engineering mind. Before coming to Medford, she was associated with the Portland Electric Power company and there knew W. H. Emerlck, state chairman of the en gineers' National Hoover committee. At one time Mrs. Hansen was the only registered woman engineer In this state, and may still be so far as Medford has been Informed. The need In the political campaign, Mrs. Hansen stated yesterday, la for the Interpretation of the character resident Hoover, by engineers, who understand his methods. "The Women's Division of the En gineers' National Hoover committee Is reaffirming 1U support of Herbert Hoover. Organised in 1938 to assist In the oampalgn, this group hu maintained Its organization In order better to support the president," was the statement Issued By Mrs. Hansen yesterday. "It Is now enabling women to make their support of Herbert Hoo ver more effective. "Mr. Hoover Is a typical engineer, believing that service Is the first duty of the profession. He uses engineer ing methods, assembles facta, and sots In accordance with them. He reellBes that long time planning Is essential but that plans must be adapted to meet changing situations. He Is deeply Interested In human wel fare but believes that constructive orltlclsm and deliberate thinking are essential to wise action. "The engineering group believes In engineering methods and that the en gineer Is able not only to eliminate drudgery but to distribute and sta bilize work, to furnish leadership In public as well as In Industrial af fairs." And because of all his qualifica tions as an engineer and a public leader, "the group" of which Mrs. Hansen Is a proud member, "stands back of the president." C. E.
