Women’s Reserve
Enlistments To
Be Lowered
Word has just been received by
the Seattle District Office of the
Uni'ed States Marine Corps that
the Marine Corps Women’s Re
serve expected to reach its au
thorized s’reng'h by the f rst of
June. After that time only a
very small number of women will
be accepted each month as re
placements in order to main’ain
the full strength of the Women's
Reserve. Thus, the Marine Corps
again scores another first in its
long line of initial accomplish
ments, being the firs* of the arm
ed services to reach the desired
strength of their women's branch.
According to Captain Fred F
Chitty in charge of the Seattle
Procurement District, a limited
quota has been set for Seattle
District for the current and final
month
“We think it only fair,” he
said, “to advise all young women
in this area who have been con
sidering entering the Marine
Corps not to delay longer or the
privilege may be denied them."
“All opportuni'ies for advance
ment and training are the same
as in the past. All officers in the
Marine Corps Women’s Reserve
are promoted from the ranks.
Girls between the ages of 20 and
36, in good physical condition,
with equivalent of two years of
high school or business collegfe
training, and no children under
16 years of age are acceptable.”
“Many occupations do not re
quire releases, however, any girl,
regardless of where she is work
ing, who is not employed at her
maximum skill or who can be
readily replaced, may obtain a
release from the United States
Employment Office.”
“Since several days are usually
required to effect an enlistment
or secure the proper release, it

is necessary that interested girls

the Seattle Marine Corps Office,
Room 303, Empress Building, at
Second and Spring S‘reet."
