Aug. 18— | The American business woman of |today is a very different person from the working girl of 20 years { ago. Answers to a questionnaire sent {to 6924 business women by the | National Federation of Business land Professional Women's clubs |reveal that at least two-thirds of them are regular patrons of beauty | parlors, that about one-third of ‘them swim and one-half enjoy | housekeeping in their own apart- ments. Permanent waves were found more popular with the business women than marcels, 2903 of’ the 1 6,924 preferring the first method of {coiffure and 1360 the latter. Based on the returns from the ! questionnaire it is estimated that the 60,000 business and profes- sional women enrolled in the or- ganization are spending about $800,000 annually on cosmetics and beauty treatments. {> ‘About 39 per cent'of them drive their own cars, about one-tenth ride horseback and one-sixth play | tennis, It is estimated that about one- | fourth of the 60,000 are married ;and about one-half of those mar- ,ried have children.
