Survey Confirms
Ability Of Women
Women are doing away with
high heels, long hair, and feminine
frills in defense production, and
men who work with them are
“smoothing up,” according to an
Associated Press survey. Men,
who were prejudiced against
women entering their fields are
now bragging about the good work
their “little gals” are doing.
In this survey of 550 concerns
W. P. Witherow, president of the
National Association of Manufac
turers, said that married women
are more deepndent and produc
tive in war work than single wom
en. Women are absent oftener
than men, but married women lose
less time from work if they are on
the morning shift, according to
Mr. Witherow.
Men’s efficiency has often in
creased where women have enter
ed industry, for contending with
female efficiency and increased
output, men have had to .“buckle
down.”
Kappa Alpha Theta will enter
tain ensigns at a punch party at
7 p. m. Sunday.
