of the DSR coach she operates discussing her schedule
with drivers Thamer Diamond (center) of 30‘3 E. Grand
Blvd., and Dorothy Holly of 23088 Hill, Van Dyke. DSR
officials say their nine women bus drivers have proven
themselves; want 200 more. Applicants must be 21.
, By JOHN CREECY
Don't speak harshly to your DSR bus driver. She may
be somebody's mother.
For more than a year now the DSR has been hiring women
drivers.* At first it was more or less of an experiment, but the
nine women now driving have proved so efficient that the DSR
announced Saturday it would like to have 200 more just like them.
Driving a bus isn't a soft touch
by any means, but most of the
women now on the job seem to
enjoy it.
“I had nlua>» wanted to deal
with the public. I like to have
a lot of people around me.**
said Mrs. Anne Verbos of 44
E. Grixdale in explaining why
she took up bus driving.
PRAISED BY PATRONS
Previous to her DSR training
Mrs. Verbos had driven nothing
but the family automobile.
She made such a good bus
driver, however, that on several
occasions passengers have written
letters of commendation to the
DSR management.
Most of the mne have families.
Several have husbands in the
armed services and took up driv
ing a« a means of aiding the war
effort.
Mrs. Lucille Bowser of 2144
Brt"}»ctt has five children. Her
husband is in the army. For a
couple of years she drove army
trucks to point* of embarkation
but switched to the liSR job
when her children pleaded “why
don't you *La> home nights?”
ENJOYS HER WORK
Working approximately 70
hours a week, as most DSR
ririv. rs do, she doesn't have much
more time to spend with her chil
dren than formerly, but she en
joys the work and makes a good
living For working 70 hours a
driver draws approximately S9O
a week.
Most of them don’t find the
work physically exhausting, hut
they all agree it's pretty hard

“I find myself yelling 'Get to
the rear of the roach, please,'
in my sleep,” said Mr*. Kath
erine Kramer of 4742 Schlaff,
Dearborn ,
Some passengers took appre
hensive wherf they see a woman
at the wheel They needn't,
though, for all of the women
drivers have a perfect safety
record as far as chargeable ac
cidents are concerned.
“We gl\e them H days*
training, for which they are
paid .50 cent* an hour," said
Charles E. Dawson, acting
director of safety for the DSR.
“At the end of that time
they go to work at a rate of
SI.OB an hour, which la In
creased to $1.17 at the end of
the first year.”

Societies Urge U. S.
Withhold Recognition
Terming the newly formed
Polish proMsional government in.
Lublin a "threat to Allied unity,"
the Central Citizens Committee,
representing the major Polish-
American organizations of Detroit
and vicinity, Saturday urged the
United States to withhold recog
nition of the new government.
In a resolution addressed to
senators and congressmen the
committee endorsed the position
of Stanislaw Mikolajczyk. Polish
Peasant party leader, who had
stated:
“Recognition of the provi
sional government by the Soviet
Union before the next meeting
of the three major Allied powers
would mean the adoption of a
policy of ‘fait accompli* testify
ing to a serious lack of agree
ment among the Allied nations.
SEES REDS IN CONTROL
“If Great Britain, the United
States and France also recog
nized the regime it would mean
their consent to the establish
ment of a Communist Poland,
a Poland standing on the thresh
old of incorporation In the So
viet Union, a Poland whose
Independence, freedom and
strength will have been obli
terated.”
Roman V. Ceglowski, head of
the committee, revealed records
showing that the most important
positions in the now “govern
ment”—premier, vice premier,
minister of foreign affairs and
minister of propaganda—arc being
occupied by “camouflaged Com
munists.”
QUOTES STATEMENT
He cited a statement hv the
Polish government in London
which said:
“In the parts of Poland
cleared of German occupation
there exists neither freedom of
speech association or assembly.
“The press, radio and alj of
ficially recognized political and
social organizations are only
Instruments of the Committee
of National Liberation In Lub
lin .. . which now declares Itself
to be the. provisional govern
ment."
