There are more women in public office than ever before, and the trend is toward still more, reported the Republican National committee. "Our women's division is not trying to set women apart," said Miss Bertha Adkins of the com mittee. "But women are com parative newcomers in the pub lic service and a chart of their progress is needed." Here are some highlights of her report, which she said was nonpartisan. In 1923, when official employ ment records first were issued, there were 80,000 women in federal government. Now, there are nearly. 576,000. First Woman The first woman elected to Congress was Miss Jeanette Ran kin (R.Mont.), who took office in 1916. Since then, 62 women have been elected or appointed to Congress. At present, there are 16 wom en, 9 Democrats and 7 Republi cans in Congress. Women serving in the 1957 state and territorial legislatures total 321, an all-time high. New Hampshire, with 53 women law makers, leads the states. Nearly 50 per cent of all post master jobs are held by women. At least 10.000 women hold municipal office, and another 18,000 are in county jobs. The posts range from city - police chief to county commissioner. There are 114 women justices in federal, state, county and municipal courts, exclusive of justices of the peace. The number of women in for eign service is at an all-time high. They include Miss Frances Wallis, ambassador to Norway; Sizes 10, 12, 14, 16, 18. Size 16 takes 3 yards 35-inch fabric. Printed directions on each pattern part. Easier, accurate.
