company for years decried the woman
in business life. He insisted that no
woman ever would work In his office.

and he would not replace any man by
a woman working for a smaller salary.
Among his other causes for criticism
was his idea that If a woman were ln
the office the men would spend too sortion

she can turn her hand to any aort of
work."

that time the old and trusted employee
