MEASURE FOR FULL PARTNERSHIP
The Business and Professional Women’s annual part
Tuesday night, brining together ipiito a group of busi-
ness women in this area, proved again that our generation
, has opened up a whole new field for w-nnen h<, .'an* to
go into business and professions.
The party came in the midst of National Business

President Harry Truman said, in an open letter, “I
am happy to give encouragement to the theme, ’Measure

men are rising Pi their opportunities l'« r work in business
and the professions.”
The long range national program of the National Fed-
eration includes a. platform of training for job better-
ment, opening new doors of work opportunity. education'
for sound management of money, planning for mature
living, cooperation with other business and professional
organizations, understanding of th* special needs and
problems of other women, the farm and home worm n>th«
women who work in industry, and women-in-other coun-
tries,, participation as citizens in g< v.rninont and politic.-

C< le-man women are doing their part to fulfill. Many of
them hold down jobs and care for families too. As Sena-

we are pretty evenly divided—
The Boss, Shell and Scoopy, the
AP; Randy and Spot. So we feel
we have at least a 50<r, chance
of discussing womanhood.

much to the realization of the

In regard to the parking
meters in Coleman, I think they
are horrible. I live close to Lea-
day, 30 miles from Coleman. I
drive to Coleman, to do most of
my trading, once a week, and if I
drive that far to trade with you,
and then you charge me to park,
I’ll just quit.
