THIRTY THOUSAND women and girls will be re- cruited for munition work by the Ministry of Labour during the next few days.

This is the first instalment of the 1,000,000 jobs that are lo be provided for women on war work, as reported in the "Sun- day Chronicle" a fortnight ago. The localities in which the girls will be employed cannot be revealed. The Ministry is making arrange- ments to pay the girls trade union rutes of wages, and, where they live away from home, to make some con- tribútion towards the extra living costs that they will incur while living in lodgings,

Dr. Goebbels was addressing a gathering of soldiers, artists, and workers in Berlin. He told them that "spiritual nourishment was particularly necessary war-time."

"Man does not live by bread - alone," he said, adding:

"You are here to proclain to the world that art is not solely for whil-: ing away thine in peace, but is also ashurp spiritual weapon in time of war."
