The most significant change in reg'a rds
to route management to be observed duro
ing the month of March is the increased
employment of women for service work.
Canteen, a company that has a large string
of drink and confection vendors spotted in
defense plants in this area, have turned to
women in a big way in order to keep the
routes properly serviced. Canteen, after
giving the two· woman teams thorough
training under the direction of a veteran
routeman, have turned certain routes over
to them. An older woman acts as chauffeur
and contact-JIlan and a Sounger one acts
as helper. Figures are not available as to
just how many women are working on
Canteen's routes but it is known that there
are many. A male route·boss keeps in close
touch with route operations and remedies
as much as possible the peculiar difficul-
ties that arise due to the switch from male
to female route servicing. For instance,
there are no crews of women servicing the
