British Woman Here Speaks for United War Work Campaign Miss Edith Picton Tubervill, vice president of the British Young Women's Christian association, is in Omaha in the interest of the Unity War Work campaign. She spoke last night at the Strand and Rialto theaters. Miss Tubervill came to this coun try with her twin sister, Beatrice, who is a leader in the housing de partment of the British ministry of munitions. "Womesfs work has not the glam or and glory of man's work in war," she said, "but Britian has learned of the crucial importance of the work of the 2,000,000 British women in munitions and other war- work. They work from 10 to 14 hours a day. They are now even making munitions for a large part of the American army. There are 30,000 of the 'Waacs' alone, of whom thousands are in France doing everything that soldiers do except fight."
