ABORTIVE CALL
WOMEN FOR WAR WORK IN BRITAIN SMALL NUMBERS RESPOND. REQUIREMENTS FAR FROM MET. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 1.30 p.m.) LONDON, September 19. "The call-up of women for national service has failed,” says the "Daily Mirror.” "Less than ten per cent of the 25,000 women needed for war work in London and South-East England have been enrolled and less than 2,000 are serving, when Russian women are fighting and dying with their men at the front.” A Ministry of Labour official said: "If Goebbel’s’ propaganda is intended to lull us into a sense of complacency, it seems to be succeeding to a certain extent.”
