Many Problems Face Army
Of Young Women See
Need Of Community Help
Washington, CU.R) More than
300,000 women are on the gov
ernment payroll throughout the
country.
Nearly doubling their number
since 1939, Uncle Sam s "favor
ite nieces" would populate now
a city equal to Seattle, Houston
Denver, or Atlanta. The Wo
men's bureau of the U. S. de
partment of lat-or estimated that
Federal feminine workers in
the District of Columbia alone
totalled 118,900 in May, .1952,
compared to 78,000 in 1941.
Requires Health
So many problems confront
these young women that the U.
S. Department of Labor recently
published a handbook to guide
them. Mary Anderson, director
of the Women s bureau, super
vised the publication.
Needs of community adjust
ment at this time are acute,
Miss Anderson said. She point
ed out that women being re
cruited into the war production
program must have physical
and mental health to maintain
efficiency on their Jobs.

the problems of girls who mi

to secure Jobs in factories,
offices, or service trades. To
assist these newcomers is a
challenge to the community in
the opinion of Miss Anderson.
Normal Living Sought
Primary problem of the war
working girl in Washington Is
housing. Living quarters should
be up to standards essential for
health, privacy, cleanliness and
comfort. Room rents should not
exceed 20 per cent of a woman's
income and her bathing, eating,
and laundry facilities must be
planned for normal living.
Recreation for war employes,
according to the Women's bu
nm ! a npprasltv. The three
fold pressure of strange sur
roundings, overcrowding, and
speeding up of Industry makes
a need for relaxation and self
expression. Recommendations for a health
program include education along
lines of disease prevention, first
aid, and supplying adequate
medical care. -

Three Major Crises
In Separate Sectors
Seen Closely Linked
BY DE WITT MACKENZIE
Wide World War Analyst
The week-end has developed three major crises which, al
though In widely separated theaters, seem to be closely
related (1) the American offensive against the Japanese in
the Solomon and Aleutian Islands, (2) the further German
gain in the Maikop oil lone of the northern Caucasus, and (3)
the inauguration of the Indian Nationalist revolt against Brit
ish rule.
While we have no official In-"
terpretation of the strategic pur
poses of the new drive against
the Japs, I think we are war
ranted in assuming that it prob
ably Is intended to serve in part
as a "second front" to protect
Russia from the Nipponese dur
ing the height of the Caucasian
pressure. There is danger that
the Japanese may take advan
tage of the Soviet difficulties to
attack Siberia, and our offensive
may be Intended to create a
sufficient diversion, especially
in the air, to discourage them
from sticking a knife in Russia's
back.
Indian Tragery Holds
Invitation to Japs
The Indian tragedy provides
further incentive for the Jap
anese to duplicate their Pearl
Harbor treachery and strike at
Russia. With India thus strick
en, and the allies in danger of
seeing this vast arsenal and vital
strategic base rendered useless
-r-or perhaps much worse the
hand of the United Nations
against Japan will be weakened.

By the same token China loses
striking power against the Japs.
Since the Nipponese cut the Bur
ma road she has been getting
most of her supplies from the
outside world by air from India
and over primitive trade trails
through the mountains from
that country.
Howeer, while our offensive
does protect Russia, either by
design or by circumstance, it
undoubtedly is calculated to do
more than create a diversion to
help our Soviet ally. The Solo
mons and the neighboring Bis
marck Archipelago which the
Japs hold, together with North
eastern New Guinea, not only
constitute a threat to our sea
communications with Austalia
and New Zealand, but they pro

vide the enemy with an enviable
base for an attack on the Aus
tralian mainland.
Initial Success To
Govern Development
Whether this offensive will
develop Into a major operation
probably depends on what suc
cess meets our initial efforts.
The chances are that our com
mand if figuring on ousting the
Japs entirely from this whole
group of islands if things go
well. That would be a great
achievement and one which
would create a threat against
the whole structure of the Nip
ponese island conquests.
Apart from the strategic con
side-rations, this offensive may
provide a most useful answer to
the Chii.ese appeals for allied
initiative in the Orient, and the
Australian fears of invasion. A
success there certainly would do
much for morale at a time when
Britain and America are having
to devote most of their energy
to meeting the German on
slaught against Russia.
