Target of Columnist A blast at Mr. Wilson was made | |by a Washington columnist, John | |F. Cramer of the Washington Daily | News, a Scripps-Howard newspa-| |per. who wrote: { “Look-Who's-Talking Department | '—The two Congressmen who have | squawked loudest about alleged inefficiency of Government girls are! Rep. Earl (10 o'clock curfew) Wil-| ‘son (R. Ind) and Rep. Carter Man- | asco (D.

Tt is responsible because it consistently refused (up to now) te permit defense housing funds to be spent {in Washington.” | A Poetic Debate i | Mr. Wilson entered the field of; poetry with his plan to speed up the stenographic and clerical forces in| | Washington after 22-year-old Eileen | | V.

And so I decided "Twas only your due. That someone like me Should broaden your view,
The incentive to show Efficiency plus Is killed in the struggle To get on a bus.
Now can I believe that A 10-hour day Leaves Government girls Still rezdy for play?
Even women must eat; It’s sad but it’s true, And when we get home There's the cooking to do.
So how can you think There's time or ambition To gad late at night And get out of condition.
AND BESIDES—
Since Washington women Outnumber the men, Just who is to keep us All out after 10?
The congressman wrote “A Reply to an Ode, Etc,” as follows:
Young lady, I'm sorry you misunderstood i | (However, it seems to be all to the! good). |
I was not impatient with girls who are working, My patience is short with those] who are shirking.
