WORRY
CLINIC
By Or.
George W. Crane
.. Janice is t seif-made woman who
has worked hard to attain her ex
ecutive Job. Read her critieleaas,
however, of the typfarts she has em
ployed and mo whether you think
she la hi error, or if her employees
are at fault. To gain proper pers
pective In such matters, then use
the .Psychological Hating Scales
mentioned below. ..
Case Q—333: Janice J.. aged <3.
operates her own successful business.
"But, Dr. Crane, I am having
trouble holding employees,” she pro
tested.
“For exampie, I hired four girls
in the past year from a local em
ployment agency.
"But none of them wants to
work or advance herself. They were
all slow at the start, but I didn’t
object to that.
■ However, they didn't Improve
very much for they seemed to have
no desire to do good work
•They weren’t what I’d call half
way efficient typists, though that
was their major job.
“They were both smw and inac
curate. Yet I paid the conventional
wage and would have raised their
pay if they had shown interest
and improvement.
So what do you advise? I thought
maybe I was at fault, but I have
talked to many other employers
who offer the same complaints
nowdays.”
EMPLOYMENT PSYCHOLOGY
Sometimes women don't like to
work for female bosses as much ms
for men, though there are many
exceptions.
A woman employer must be care
ful that doesn’t hold up too
high a standard. And she must be
ware lest she take herself too ser
iously.
Here’s why. A woman usually pays
a bigger price to attain the same
rank that a man holds, for there is
a certain amount of prejudice ag
ainst women in top jobs.
Even though a woman may have
superior qualifications and work
harder than a male caileague, she
finds it harder to get equal recog
nition. So the fact she pays mere
in effect and ability to get a man
agerial job, tends to make her value
it unduly.
For the more we pay for any
thing. the greater do we deem it
worth.
So women bosses often are ac
cused of magnifying their own
importance. Their employees often
say they lack a man’s sense of
humor.
But you can see why. Suppose
they figuratively pay $5,000 for the
same auto which a man gets for
$3,500. They wouid naturally de
mand more consideration for their
“car" thereafter which is why their
employees say they are old-maidisn
and devoid of a sense of humor.

Predict Use of Atomic
Power Will Arrive Slowly

Next to the production of electric power, the greatest use of
atomic energy will be in transportation. _. . . .
It is predicted that the first atomic-powered commercial snip
a tanker—will be in service within 10 years. . „«■-«
There may not be an atomic-powered airplane torlOto ***•"*;
It will be another 10 years before atomic planes will oe econonuc
for commercial payloads.
AN ATOMIC RAILROAD LOCOMOTIVE is technically P<msiWc.
but probably could not be made economically feasible for a long
time to come. . ...
These are the highlights of a voluminous survey just made public
by the Joint Congressional Committee on Atomic Energy, .whose
chairman is Sen. Clinton Anderson (D.-NM). _
A year ago, this committee asked a panel of eight prominent
businessmen, scientists and lenders in public affairs not connected
with the federal government to study the Impact of atomic energy
on the civilian economy. Robert McKinney, editor of the Santa t c
New Mexican, was chairman.
In 18 chapters, covering every phase of atomic energy develop
ment for peaceful uses, the McKinney Committee sticks ite collec
tive neck out with many predictions and recommendations tor
changing government policy on atomic energy.
IN GENERAL, the panel of experts. Including Ernest R. Breech
of Ford Motors and Frank M. Folsom of RCA, foresee that the
atom will raise living standards. But the change will be gradual,
qvmt ihe next five to 25 years.
Fifty thousand patients have already been treated by radioactive
isotopes in the past 10 years—which are the first 10 years of the
new atomic age.
The day may come, says the McKinney Committee, when every
citizen will have to carry a record of his radiation doses. Just as
he now should carry a record of his blood type. But the committee
predicts that radiation will probably never replace surgery in the
treatment of cancer.
Within three to 10 years, there wiU be commercial atomic radia
tion to preserve foods, at a cost of 3 to 10 cents a pound. This
compares with 2 to 8 cents a pound for freezing foods. It is there
fore predicted that atomic radiation will have no more effect on
the fdod-processing industry than the introduction of frozen foods.
ON A LABORATORY SCALE, the day of the “atomic-tailored"
plant is at hand. This means new species of food plants, developed
by atomic radiation to meet varying conditions of moisture, tem
perature and soiL
Atomic energy will have little use for heating homes and factories.
But by 1980. 19 per cent of die process heating of metals in industry
may come from atomic energy.
The effect of atomic power on coal, oil and natural gas industries,
as producers of competitive fuels, is expected to be slight

indeed, such a girl may even

Thus, this curvaceous teen-ager
can indirectly become the superior
of her former 45-year-old, woman

So this potential situation does t
make a woman boss feel too kindly
toward the indolent but sexy fe
male workers under her.

are my popular with female work
