Girls Needed on the French Farms, Asserts War Worker

One of the objects of Miss Anne Morgan’s recent return to America from France, where she has been aiding in restoring comtaunlties devastated by German invaders, is to obtain for France a large number of girls to work on farms. “I would like it to be known to American girls on farms that we need them in France more than all other girls,” Miss Morgan said. “We don’t want theorists but would like to get women from the West — women who have worked oh the farm and don’t mind doing field work.” Miss Morgan, sister of J. P. Morgan and treasurer of the American Fund for French Wounded, said she and her associates in France, American women, had placed 5,500 acres under cultivation and had established a dairy with soldiers to milk the cows.
