1942: LBJ reported back to FDR about the need for more workers in the navy yards. “He proposed that laborers be drawn from pre-draft-age men, men with dependents who would not be called, men deferred because of physical disabilities, and women who could not only do clerical jobs but also work on assembly lines and in repair shops as well as or even better than men.” ——Woods, Randall B. LBJ: Architect of American Ambition. New York: Free Press, 2006, p. 232. Zoom
