* WORKING MOTHERS £ - EARN HIGHER PAY Institute Inquiry Shows Most Women Seek Jobs Because of Economic Pressure. BY GRETCHEN SMITH. Reasons given for working by over 300 college women in answer to & ques- tlonnaire sent out by Mrs. Chase Going ‘Woodhouse, director of the Institute of Women’s Professional Relations, show that economic pressure predomi- nates as the cause for the “job outside the home.” The intensive study of Mrs. Woodhouse also discloses the fact that on the,whole married women with children earn more than do the married women without children. For two years Mrs. Woodhouse has been compiling data and carrying on research work to be used in the program of the Institute of Women's Profes- sional Relations. The institute is a re- search organization sponsored but not financed by the American Association of University Women with headquarters at the North Carolina College for ‘Women. Aids Vocational Guidance. It was organized two years ago as the result of the realization by a group of progressive men and women for the need of an institution to conduct scien- tific and systematic research into busi- ness opportunities and professional flelds open to college women. One of the purposes of the institute as a result of its research work is to serve as a sort of vocational guidance bureau for women college students. The institute offers reliable information on present opportunities and on new opportunities for advancement in specific occupations. i Through effective co-operation with business and professional groups and with educational institutions it is able to render valuable assistance to the young college girl in a selection of a career. The plans for the founding of the Institute of Women's Professional Re- Iations were formed during a series of informal meetings held at the Wash- ington home of Mrs. Catherine Filene Dodd, well known in the Capital's so- clety circles. Mrs. Dodd, who is a graduate of Wheaton College, is the originator during her undergraduate days. of the organized student move- ment for vocational guidance for col- Jege women. After her graduation, Tealizing the difficulties of so many young women in choosing for them- selves a profession or occupation best sulted to individual tastes and talents, Mrs. Dodd edited a book, “Careers for Women,” which was compiled for answers to a questionnaire sent by Mrs. Dodd to women in 300 different occu- pations. Few Have Definite Plans. “I realized when I was in college,” explained Mrs. Dodd, “how few young women entering college take up their studies with a definite career in view. At college age young women no less than young men are ignorant of the import of their own likes and dislikes; they are ignorant to a great extent of the world in which they will have to use them, and preconceived ideas of what they want to be may or may not be in harmony with their true selves.” As the result of the meetings held at | Mrs. Dodd’s home during the Winter of 1927-1928 the Institute of Women's Professional Relations was founded. Funds were raised by private subscrip- tion to cover a five-year program, and the American Association of University Women was invited to sponsor the enterprise. The North Carolina College for Women at Greensboro, N. C., learning of the plan, offered office space, equip- ment and the college press for the use of the new institute. The vocational director of the college, which comprises approximately 1,800 women* students, serves also as director of the institute. Complete Bibliography. ‘The institute began work January, 1929, with Mrs. Woodhouse as director and Mrs. Dodd as chairman of the board of directors, Since that time it has completed a bibliography, “Occu- pations ofr College Women,” containing & list of books and magazines dealing with 19 fields of work, chapters on per- sonnel work in colleges, vocational tests, some problems of professional women and lists of professional peri- odicals, professional organizations and publishers. A supplement brlngmg the material to date will appear in Feb- Tuary of each year. Studies and research into past, pres- ent and future occupations of college and university women have been exten- | sively carried out in the past two years | by Mrs. Woodhouse and a staff of insti- tute workers. Interesting data have been gathered relative to married college wamen in business and the professions, women und the Ph. D, the changing status of women, some facts about women in banking, women’s work and education, ess women in retail trade, women in banking and investment houses, and lrmumerable other occu- pations pursued by college women. Valuable Service Possible. By assisting the college woman in the first year of college to select defi- nitely the carcer for which she is best sulted, Mrs. Dodd points out that the Institute of Women's Professional Re- lations will render invaluable service not only to individual women, but to business and the professions. Much of waste period which accompanies the transition of the college woman academic life to the life of action and production will be eliminated.
