The honor came on Mrs, Ibar- ruri's 70th birthday. She has not been back to Spain since she escaped by air after the defeat of the Repub- licans by Gen. Francisco Franco in 1939. The Communist party has been banned in Spain since then. 3 La Pasionaria (passion flower) became famous during the Spanish war for impas- sioned speeches urging Repub- lican women to put their cause above husbands and children. "It is better to be the widow of a hero than the wife of a miserable coward," she said in one speech. Her only son, Ruben, joined the Soviet army during the Sec- ond World: War and was killed at Stalingrad in 1942.

ROBERTA ROESCH "One of the things thaf irks me most about women employ- ees," a male boss recently said, "is that many of them claim helplessness because of their sex whenever they are asked to do a menial job they happen to think is beneath their status. "Just this week," he con- tinued, "I saw examples of this when three women in my office who want complete equality with men when it comes to benefits, immediately drew the line and said, because they were women, they should never be asked to do menial jobs, even in emergencies." The first example of this, the employer said, involved a lengthy walk to the office sup- ply room to get a box of en- velopes needed for a special mailing that had to get out that day. "Since a box of our en- velopes isn't nearly so bulky or héavy as many of the packages I have seen women carry home from department stores,'"' the boss told me, "I asked our youngest clerk to' walk over to the stock room and bring us Claim in menial Task back a supply, because the man whe wevld normaliv do this was out for the day." "But that's a man's job," the young girl complained. 'That's not work that women should do." A second woman, the em- ployer revealed, refused to empty two wastebaskets, filled and overflowing with the morn- ing's discards, when no man was available to carry them to : trash container in the corri- or.

"Men: should do that. work," she said. "It's too dirty for women." As a woman who roots for women, I'm certainly not sug- gesting we all become office handmaidens and fire every custodian so we can take over ourselves, In fact, I remember all too well exactly how I felt when as a young college graduate, I had my first job. The boss asked me. to sweep around his desk because a visiting V.I.P. was en route at the time, and the man who generally swept the floors wasn't available. I took the broom that was handed to me and slammed it around in rage, with all of my sunken status showing on my sullen face. But looking-back now, I cai sce "that witiaing= that s=-: eres 'did nothing to lower my status. | Actually, if I had done it gra- ciously, I would have realized that, in helping the boss out in a situation like that, i was in- deed showing him that he could depend on me in an emer- gency. It never hurts any of us to forget about claiming. helpless- ness and announcing that we are "women" whenever an of- fice occasion arises in which we are asked to help out and to do some chore that we may feel is beneath us.
