"Morrow Aircraft, which manufactures parts for planes, is trainall its new Production Manager Palmer explained today. "We hand-pick them, but it is impossible to list all the requirements. MUST BE DEXTEROUS "One essential is that the women must be dexterous with their hands. "We prefer women between 25 and 35, although there is no definite age limit. The employes are generally chosen by the shop foreman and myself from applications which we have on file." The aircraft corporation will hire at the most, 40 women.

This number, according to Mr. Palmer, will represent 25 per cent of the workers in the assembly department. LOSS AT FIRST "Any employe in an aircraft plant is a 50 per cent loss for his first 45 days," Mr. Palmer avered. "It is 90 days before he or she is able to handle the job with full efficiency." Mr.

Palmer, who was a production supervisor at Vega Airplane Burbank, was responsible for the hiring of women there before joining Morrow Aircraft. He asserts that women, as a whole, step up production facilities 25 per cent. The reason, he claims, is that they take more interest in making a success of their work and the spirit of competition between them and the men augments production.
