Achievements stressed
National Business Women's week
la set aslda annually to call attention
to the achievements of women In
business and the professions and to
lre the community at large an op
portunity to become acquainted with
the program of the Business and
Professional Women's Club.
A statement by the International
organisation points out that one
hundred years ago the Industrial rev
olution was beginning In America.
The spinning Jenny and the power
loom had been Invented and were
making It possible for cloth to he I
made In new waya. Growth of mill
towns was taken for granted, and
young women who had been earning
their livelihoods at Just six occu
patlons keeping boarders, teaching
young children, typesetting, book
binding, domestic service, and needle
work found a new occupation as
weavers In the mills.
SOI Orciiptitlons Now
The 1930 census shows that of
some 635 classifications of occupa
tions listed, women were engaged In
601. And so tn 100 years, women have
advanced from seven fields to 801;
doors of opportunity for women are
opening wider and wider. But the
end Is not yet, and perhaps 100
more years will pass until the world
will allow women to mako their best
contribution, and women will be will
ing to make It.
"In 100 years American women
have come a long way," says the
statement. "Just as our country has
como a long way, but we still have
a Journey to make, boat as women
and as citizens.
"Mrs. I'm u kiln D. rioot.ovti mild
In ri-Hponsp to the question, what
wei r the chlei obstacles to employ -nu-ut
in the path of American wu
meii 100 years ago?. 'I should say
that In 1930 the chief obstacles In
the patij of employment for Ameri
can women, wore, first, the attltudn
held by both men and women as to
tho proper kind of work which wo
men should do.' "
Immense Improvement hss come
about In the raising of wages, the
lowering of hours and the better
ment of plant equipment, the wo
men's organization statement points
out.
"We know where we stood 100 years
ago, where we stand today, and what
we must do In the yeara ahead."
