Modern Women Choosing
Both Home and Career
Labor Survey Discloses

"Horns or career?"--that grav quss
Hon which gave many a bright young
lady In rulllea and bustls a p'.ln In
the head aa ahe turned down a poet
tlon In the mllllner'a ahop for a wed
ding band or vice versa a long time
ago, to apend the rest of her daya,
wondering what would have happened
"li" haa apparently faded from the
book of etnlce, according to a report
received yesterday from the United
Btatea Department of Labor. It glvea
woman a brand new 193a depression
title, "wage-earning home maker."
And there are 4,000.000 of them,
the report atatea. Thtrty-sevsn per
cent of the total number of women
employed In the United States, are
enacting thla double role of home
maker and wage-earner, the census
data shows. Conversely, It Is pointed
out, about 14 per cent of the country's
borne makers are also bread wlnnera.
There la nothing said In the depart
ment of labor report about who la
"wearing the suspenders," and "ca
reer," that word which used to bring
a tide of Indignation into any maacu
, line gathering when associated with
"wife," Isn't mentioned either.
The conclusion Is - that depression
brought a sense of equality for men
and women Into the scheme of things
which even the war failed to accom
plish. The woman who worked then
through a eense of pstrlotism and
later for "pin-money" la now working
to supply an economic need.
The vast majority of these home
makers have undertaken paid Jobs not
from the desire for a career or eco
I nomlo Independence, the Washington
report states, "but from the need to
supplement or provide the family1 In
come." Mary Anderson, director of the Wo.
men's Bureau, United States Depart
ment of Labor, In her report of a aur
vey, states, "Over hslf the breed
winning home mskera were found In
agricultural, Industrial and domes
tlo work-types of employment en
gaged In by women chiefly because
of need to earn a livelihood to sup
port other. A fifth Of the women were
office workers and saleswomen, most
of them also ere employed from
economlo need.
"The woman with a double Job Is
making economlo contributions to the
family In two waya first by her earn
ings, and second by her services in
the home, which have a definite
money value, aa la apparent when an
outside person must be paid to per
form such work.
"Many wage-earning women do
practically all the household tasks
before and after their paid Jobs. Em
ployment of the home maker does
not necessarily mean that her home
and family an neglected," Mlse An
derson sdds. "A womsn must give
much of her time to make the home
a success, but ahe may have to take
soma hours from her domestlo sched
ule to earn money to make the home
a possibility."
As a measure to safeguard the
health and energlea of women forced
to be both home maker and wage
earner, and for Insuring better homes
and happier families. Miss Anderson
st the close of her report, stresses
the Importance of a shorter workday.
Wage -earning home makers Include
many single women and those with
broken marital ties as well as mar
ried women, the report also ahows.
The "pin-money" theory, still applied
so extensively to married women, Is
an unfair handicap, Mlsa Anderson
maintains, urging a more definite
recognition of women'a Increased re
sponsibility for dependents.

Nobuyoshl Muto, Japan's pleni

States to Judge Japan'a policy here
In "a spirit of tolerance, lenlenoy and
generosity
Japanese, he said In an Interview,
cannot understand by America, which
haa obtained the fullest measure of
wealth, power and Influence, should
begrudge a small eh are of the world's
goods to Japan.
Moreover, he declared, his coun

General Muto, godfather to the
world'a youngest nation, la regarded
In Tokyo aa Japan's "strong, silent
man,' 'although he Is small of stat
ure and retiring In demeanor.
flitting In his modest, one-room of
fice here, he voiced a fervent hope
that America might understand Ja.
nan's motives.
"Instead of quibbling over the
technical phraseology In academic,
agreements never Intended to cover
auch a altuatlon as Japan now faces
In Chine," he said, "would It not be
nobler for the United States to take
into account some of the funds'
mental elements which affect Japan
In thla crisis?
"Does America realise, for exam
ple, that without Manchuria, the
Japanese people will starve to death?
"Are your people conecioua of the
fact that, unless we haw Manchuria
aa a barrier, the devastating forces
of bolshevlam msy engulf the whole
of Jspsn and China?
"Do the American people, always
broadmlnded and generous, ever stop
to think that their government slam

tries followed America 'a exempts.

General Muto denied vigorously
that Japan would ever annex Man
churia, and Insisted that "It la a lie
to say that Manchucukuo Is a tra
gus' state."
"The birth of Si. nw nation," he
said, "should bs rrgardcd aa a al-

the oriental races to remodel their

TWELVE YEARS AGO
'.
Twelve years ago it rained not the kind of rain com
monly expected in Oregon but a rain of lower living
costs a veritable shower of low prices that brought about
a new era of food costs in Southern Oregon.
Twelve years ago we opened the pioneer self-service
store in Oregon, a radical departure from the old fash
ioned cash food store. First, of course was the new self
service, but a greater and more important departure
was the featuring of none but high quality foods.
The best for less High quality at cash and carry
prices a radical departure from the usual cash and carry
custom of selling distressed stocks and strange brands that
did not permit of price comparison.
