By ELIZABETH TOOMEY United Press Correspondent New York (U.R) A career guarantees a woman certain things, like her own money and her friends' curiosity. The spending money varies ac cording to success, but the ques tions sound remarkably alike in all income brackets. How come?" the curious pon der. "She trying to compensate for something?" One woman, at least, believes there is a simple answer to the apparent puzzle of a woman put ting career ahead of family. Men refuse to believe it, Ma deleine Faust ad-nitted, because it is so simple, but she vows that other women understand. "A woman finds herself with a need to earn a living, Degan Miss Faust, a French-Canadian with snapping brown eyes and crisp, French-accented conversa tion. "She finds work that inter ests her. Then, if something is worth doing, it is worth doing well. So she works hard at it." Trua Place With Family She succeeds beyond her wild est dreams, as Miss Faust has in her own career. ''But she knows," the female executive added softly, "that a woman is truly happy only when she has a husband she loves and her chil dren. Her true place is with her family. "She cannot just sit and wait for this to come to her, so she works. And maybe it never comes." In six short years Miss Faust has changed from a job-hunting divorcee with a small son to a businesswoman whose career takes her regularly to half a dozen countries. Her first idea for a career grew out of her ex perience as a mother, and now 10-year-old Michel, she says, "is the reason I work so hard so I will build something for him." Miss Faust decided other new mothers would like to get a copy of a baby magazine while they still were in the hospital. In French-speaking Canada there was no publication devoted to baby-raising advice. So she start ed "Mon Bebe," after getting a board composed of six pediatri cians to approve each issue and arranging with hospitals in French Canada to distribute her publication to new mothers. "It comes out now twice a year and goes each time to 17,- 000 mothers," Miss Faust said proudly. That success led to launching a magazine for parents, which she later sold, and finally to a third venture. Creates Toys "I wanted a business which someday would give my son a career," Miss Faust explained. "I knew it must be close to what I already knew, to I said to my self 'toys.' I would know if a child would react to a toy and why." The United States just hap pens to have more toy-buying parents and doting relatives than any other nation, so the youthful executive logically came to New York City. From one large brown envel ope she extracted a colorful, foot-high felt doll that looked a ! little like one of Snow. White's seven dwarfs. The doll was one ! of a new "Talisman" series she concocted for children, Miss Faust explained. A colorful painting captioned "Cathedralites," appeared from another envelope. She got the idea while she was in church, Miss Faust said. The lantern-like covers cleverly reproduce a stained glass window effect when i placed over Christmas tree light j bulbs. Could she give all this up for love? Without a second glance at her products this career woman answered calmly, But of course." Women Making Who's Who Faster "Women are now making "Who's Who in America" four times faster than the average for all 28 editions since its founding in the Nineteenth century, the editors find on checking the "new names" selected for the j latest edition. Volume 29 (1956- j 57), published recently. "During the nineteenth cen tury the number of women suf-! ficiently subject to general ref- erence interest to merit listing in : 'Who's Who' was surprisingly j small," the editors explain. "The arts and especially the lighted J arts accounted for most of the comparatively few who quali-: fied. ! "But numerous new opportun- i ities for women to become prom- 'Inent enough to bt, lnefutred about generally have resulted from the tremendous develop ment of the appHed arts which has occurred in this century, and the accompanying increase in opportunities for women in busi ness, government and the sci ences. ' "As a direct reralt w are ft lng more women. A check of all names being include in the new 1956-57 edition for the first tim reveals the new listings of wom en are practically four times 3.9 times, to be exact the aver age for the preceding twenty eight editions."
