There just aren't enough girls to fill all the jobs. * Said the manager of a London secretarial placement agency: "We've got 1,000 jobs for every, 100 applicants. It's frantic." Said the director of Britain's biggest secretarial college: "We have 8,000 girls through our colleges every year. But that's not nearly enough. "There's no sign of the boom | stopping.

'The wages they command," said the college director, "are among the best in the country for women. A capable secretary can earn about $23 (equivalent) weekly at age 23, and an exper- fenced private secretary can get £1,000--or nearly $3,000--a year." (These equivalent figures are based on the present value of about $2.80 to the pound sterling. But the dollar figure is not rep- resentative of equivalent living costs in the United Kingdom. In terms of dollars, the average wage in Britain is less than $1,750 annually, compared with about $4,000 in Canada. Thus a British secretary earning £1,000 a year would by London standards be al- most twice as well off as her Tor- onto or Montreal counterpart.) "And on top of that," adds the college director, "employers are offering some fantastic induce- ments." He told of firms that offer new stenographers a new typewriter of their choice. Many give their stenographers luncheon vouchers worth--again the equivalent--40 cents a day in neighborhood res- faurants.
