Dr. Burns Comments on

Pre-Wartime
Atmosphere

PQST-WAR
By BETTY ROTH
Women willime t1}ref gn them-
selves to accepting Jobs after the war
for less pay th"nie wuld reeive
in the same jobs,- accoding to Dr.
Eveline M. Burns, iormer head of
the economic security and health sec-
tion of the recently abolished Nation-
al Resources Planninig' Botrd, who
spoke to a group of 1,000 women
meeting in the Hotel enn1syvania in
New York for the 'argiual Friendship
Reunion of women's cibs.'
Dr. Burns, who was instrumental
in formulating th ill-fated C'radle-
to-Grave security plan, foresaw little
hope of imiprodvng the place the
women willbe forced 6take. "It is
obvious that with the 'strongly dis-
advantageous position we occupy in
the labor market we shlf get no-
where by exhortatiori of propagand,"
said Dr. Burns. '"As thi naigina en-
trants to the labor fliAtket, our only
hope of holdigfgu a i4 and widen-
ing our field if the sopetition for
jobs becomes keen Is to dse the econ-
omic motive, to offer 6 do the same
work for less."
Solution Suggested
A partial solution would be af-
forded by the insurance of full em-
ployment after the war, she said;, a nd
urged that women insist on 'such a
program from business and political
leaders.
An increased number of women will
be earning their living after The war

Health Service
Is in Need of
Volunteer Aides
"Girls with some nursing experi-
ence will be accepted as volunteer
aides in the Health Service infirm-
ary," said Dr. Forsythe while speaking
of the shortage'of help and the in-
crease of patients.
Students will carry trays and gen-
erally assist the nurses. The epidem-
'ic of nose and throat ailments has
taxed the capacity of bed space and
resulted in an understaffing of nurses.
General basic training 'in hospitali-
zation will be required; however, oth-
ers who believe themselves qualified
to do siall tasks around hospital are
urged to. apply at Health Service.
Various hours of the day are open
forj health service, therefore, sched-
ules and school work can be coordin-
ated.
Help is priceless because practically
every spare room has been occupied
these last weeks with students suffer-
ing from the epidemics of flu and
colds.

Publicity Committee Takes to
Ice at Hockey Opener Saturday
The "Bond Bombers" will make
their original contribution to the an-
nuals of ice-hockey when the Junior
Girls' Project publicity committee
takes to the ice against an unknown
opponent at the half of the hockey
opener at 8 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 11,

"Though the 'Bombers' aren't the
first to play hockey with brooms and
a basketball," Peg Weiss, '45, JGP
publicity chairman, said yesterday,
''we can guarantee it wil be original,
if nothing else.
JGP Goal Is $30,000
"Goals will represent opposite at-
titudes of contribution to the war ef-
fort on the part of coeds, with JGP
driving toward its $30,000 mark for
the year, while players will model the
lastest in hockey gear.
"As to individual playing ability
and teamwork, your guess is as good,
as ours. If the game' turns out to
be amusing, that's fine, because there
isn't much we can do about it."
' Skit To Be Featured
Actually the affair will take on
the form of a skit to emphasize the
opening of JGP's campaign to urge
every student to buy at least one
dollar's worth of war stamps each
month during the year.
The drive is now under way
through JGP representatives in dorm-
itories and auxiliary dormitories, sor-
ority houses, and league houses, and
booths have been set up in University
