Novelty Makers Hire French and German Women In New York
A New York corporation long facing European competition expanded its workforce by employing hundreds of women from France and Germany to produce novelties and souvenirs. The plant now supplies most domestic novelties, with annual output worth several hundred thousand dollars. Joseph Reichel of Kansas City bought $12,000 of souvenirs here. American-made items now compare favorably with prewar imports. The French and German workers were kept in separate rooms for reasons of organization.
