The first 27 female conductors started work on the trams and buses in October 1942. By June 1943 there 619 employed in Sydney and 97 in Newcastle. TRAINING WOMEN FOR TRAM WORK Assistant conductresses who will soon appear on Melbourne trams and buses will commence practical training at Hawthorn depot next week. They will be instructed in the arts of boarding movlng trams, maintaining balance in swaying carriages, punching of tickets and necessary clerical work. All assistant conductresses will be wives of tramway men who are at present overseas. Should the experiment succeed the board may decide to greatly expand the role of women assistants to meet staffing difficulties. OPINION POLL Majority In Favour Of Women Conductors Employment of women conductors on trams and buses is strongly approved throughout Australia, according to a Gallup Poll taken in June. War-time employment of women on jobs ordinarily done by men is one of the questions of the hour. In its first poll, taken last September, Australian Public Opinion Polls (The Gallup Method) found that two out of three people with opinions on the subject favoured equal pay for men and women doing the same work.

He was adorable, and such a good man. I'm so glad for my LGBT friends that they get to live in the world that Harvey helped make safer for them, and for anyone who faces discrimination of any kind.
