methods of production and distribution,” she declared. “We refuse to realize that we have each of us, many more hours every day than our great-grandfathers, in which we are free to choose what we will do. We allow ourselves to be exploited by those whose business it is to sell things, and spend in the dull, acrid practice of possessiveness much of this new free time which might be used for the most gloriously creative lives ever possible to large numbers of human beings.” During the “first rushing phases” of the change from the old era, women of the wage-earning classes

“kept their moral and physical health about as it always has been

because they hadn’t money enough tc take up the new ways of living,” Mrs. Fisher said. “Those women of the more well-to-do classes, whose life work as educator, nurse, manufacturer, laundress, cook, protector of infancy and old age had been whirled out of their hands by the hurricane of change, collapsed for a couple of generations, stunned, upon the midVictorian nervous invalid’s sofa. It was in the 70's and 80's that their daughters and granddaughters began to learn their way out from their emptied homes to take up

WPA CURTAILMENT TO BE DISCUSSED

The operation of the greatly reduced work-relief program in Indiana is to be discussed at a meeting of state WPA administrator John K. Jennings and district WPA managers from Ft. Wayne, Lafayette, Indianapolis and Evansville. ~ Mr. Jennings will outline plans for curtailed project operation in line with the proposed dismissal of 5000 WPA workers throughout Indiana, effective July 1. Reduced WPA activity in the state will necessitate an administrative cut of approximately 60 per cent under which 150 administrative positions will be eliminated, according to Mr. Jennings.

Soldiers Give Their Blood— Will You Donate Yours?

To save the lives of our men in the armed forces, Indianapolis citizens are asked to provide 56,000 pints of blood for the Red Cross blood plasma program by July 1, 1943. To date, 21,000 pints have been given. An additional 35,000 must be donated in the next 12 months. The blood donor center reports that the number of donors registered for the next two weeks is extremely low. The chapter must meet a quota of 100 donors a day. The need for blood contributions is urgent. Call LI. 1441 and make an appointment at your earliest convenience. You will help save the life of a soldier or sailor or marine who is fighting for you.

W. I. LONGSWORTH, Chairman of Indianapolis Red Cross Chapter.
