Dorothy, A Steno, Crosses Her Bridges As She Sees Them
Washington—(UP)—Take stenographers, for instance, said the witness. A gal named Dorothy, say, sits at a desk next to a guy named George. She writes as many letters a day as he does. They both put in eight hours a day, including half an hour for lunch.
All right, then, said the brunette lady legislator from California.
Dorothy ought to get as much money ___ as George.
The brunette was Rep. Helen Gahagan Douglas, one time actress and singer. She was up before an all-male house labor subcommittee to tell about her bill that would give equal pay to women who do the same work as men.
"But," butted in Rev. O. C. Fisher of Texas, sending up a smoke screen from his fat, round cigar, "Let's take a situation in reverse.
"Suppose our gal is pretty—our Dorothy. She wears a faceful of personality and smiles at everybody who comes into the office. She has a lot of contacts among the boss' customers. Shouldn't she get more at the end of the week than old George over there, who probably is a dope to start out with and hasn't smiled since his fourth kid arrived?"
"Well," said Mrs. Douglas, reversing her field and smoothing the skirt of her trim, blue serge suit, "in that case Dorothy ought to be_classified as a public relations person."
"Now," said Mr. Fisher, "aren't most office workers public relations people when you get right down to it?"
Mrs. Douglas, talking with both hands, said maybe so. But that wasn't her point. She said she'd be satisfied if Dorothy made as much as George, and if she could talk the boss into more—well and good.
The spectators in the little committee room were mostly women. They bobbed feathered hats in approval.
Mr. Fisher came up again. The speculators leaned forward.
The Texas congressman said that from the tone of Mrs. Douglas' bill, with women getting discriminated against at the pay window—it would seem to add up that we consider the ladies inferior to the men. He said this being election year and with
Waddell-Hawkins
The engagement of Harriet Waddell, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G. N. Waddell, Salina, to Thomas Hawkins, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wiley Hawkins, was announced Friday at the Kappa Kappa Gamma house.
Assisting Miss Waddell were Eileen Maloney, Elizabeth Shears, and Marty Waddell. Mrs. A. G. McKay, housemother, and the attendents received gardenia corsages. Marty Waddell received a carnation corsage and Miss Waddell, a corsage of Spanish iris.
Miss Waddell, is a College junior. Mr. Hawkins, a College sophomore, is a member of Phi Gamma Delta.
women having more votes than men, according to statistics, it would seem that Mrs. D. was outsmarting her fellow congressman. Nobody in his right mind could afford to vote against it.
Mrs. Douglas smiled.
Rep. Samuel K. McConnell, Jr., of Pennsylvania, chairman of the subcommittee, said far be it from him to argue with a woman. He agreed, he said, with the objective of Mrs. Douglas' bill. But wouldn't it be awkward to administer? Wouldn't we, he suggested, have to have a lot more machinery and people? And wouldn't Interstate Commerce raise hob with classifying workers?
Mrs. Douglas said she understood the labor department had a plan all worked out. Being a woman, she
Fort Wayne, Ind.—(UP)—The Fort Wayne public library has opened a phonograph record department enabling literary pairons to borrow albums and single recordings as well as books.
Public Library Lends Records, Too
Three sound-proof albums equipped with record players have been built in the main library building so that borrowers may choose their music before they take it home. An adjoining concert room will be ready soon.
Library officials say some 900 albums from a collection of 3,250 are available to the public for a deposit fee of $5 remitted at the end of borrowing. The remainder of the albums and some 4,200 single records, all valuable and irreplaceable, may be heard at the library only or at private concerts arranged by the library.
said, she wasn't worried about what would happen tomorrow. Women, she concluded, cross a bridge when it comes up in the road.
