Times Special LEBANON, Aug. 3—“Woman’s work is never done, neither at home nor on the war industrial front,” Mrs. Fern E. Norris, candidate for reporter of the supreme and appellate court, told members of the

Describing current opportunities for feminine employment in fields formerly limited to men as “the second great emancipation of womanhood,” Mrs. Norris declared, “In war work alone, today, almost one in every three employees is a woman, We're not asking for credit merely because we're women . . , but we had a job to do, and I think we've done it remarkably well.” Mrs. E. Ashley, club president, introduced the speaker.

But reorganization of the admin-
istrative machine is under way with
the object of relieving supply problems in the Cherbourg area as.they already have been relieved Bayeux -and the Calvados department. There are four main factors in
