The total-is nearly 13,000,000= » ri This phenomenon in our labor force is no-odd bit of informa- tion for a radio quiz. It actually, may be changing our way of life. | The number of women holding} jobs today is equal to the total number of women in the nation jin 1870. In those days it was un- ladylike to work. But, to survive, 10 percent of the women, or about 1,9U0,000, had to work for wages in 1870. The shifting economic force of women has been slow through the! years, until the last decade. In| 1930, less than 17 percent of all women were working for a wage envelope. Take Your Choice Ask Census Bureau officials what the sudden step-up in em- ployed women means, and they'll give you answers which indicate that this is something to be alarmed or pleased or worried about, according to your own ideas of what women should do in life. It means’‘among other things that women in cities are working! in far greater numbers than wo- | men in small towns and rural’ areas.

It’s also listed by the Census Bu- Teau as an important cause of the shift. People buying homes, or women wanting fur coats and other luxuries their husbands’ sal- aries will not supply, are exam- ples of this force at work. The Social Security laws are, causing more workers in the; higher age limits to leave their! work.
