Women Wanted In WAVES Navy Undertaking One Of Most Important Jobs of Career Raleigh, March 24. With the help of The Weekly, the Navy Re cruiting Service has undertaken one of the most important jobs of its career that of enlisting 3,000 North Carolina women for duty with the WAVES. Naturally, the Navy does not and never will expect her women volunteers to see combat duty. But that does not lessen the importance of women bluejackets. It's a known fact that men are direly needed at sea but, if s also a known fact that five men are needed "on the beach" to keep one man at sea. The WAVES have been designated for many of those shore jobs. They can do the jobs just as well, just as efficiently, just as quickly as men. Consequently, their enlistment means another sailor for the firing line. With the cooperation of this news paper, a drive is being made to con tact as many interested women as possible. A coupon is being printed elsewhere which needs only to be filled in and mailed to the Navy Re cruiting Station, Raleigh. Full de tails will be sent by return mail but nobody will be placed under any obligation whatsoever. Most WAVES live on subsistence allowances, which amounts to $2.75 per day or about $84 per month. That is in addition to her salary, which is $78 per month for the lowest petty officer rating and more for higher ratings.

IV as broadcast this woek on the Kaltonborn program Announcer: You have a perfect right, you know, to every single mile you can squeeze out of your ration of gasoline for essential driv ing. So, give extra attention to those items of car care which save gasoline. Ask your Pure Oil Dealer to help you. He'll be glad to check your spark plugs, for example. Did you realize that on short runs at low speeds spark plugs don't get hot enough to burn off excess carbon? Tests prove that dirty or worn-out plugs can waste as much as one-tenth of your gasoline! Your air cleaner, too, should be checked, and kept clean. Tire pres sure is another point. Under-inflation not only shortens tire life but it also steals gasoline. Remember, now: spark plugs, air cleaner and tires. Make a note to see your Pure Oil Dealer regularly about these things. Distribution of Pure Oil Product Hcl-tfbrd, N.
