00 G o o Maternity Top AAocJem Society StHI looks Down On Working Wife fir SI I&ULEY United Pre Correspondent New York -U.P.) Our society till looks down its nose at the working wife, although her num ber steadily increases. II she takes an outside job, she is told "motherhood is a full time duty." Yet, three of every 10 married women are working; two out of every five mothers with school age children are in the national labor force. This contrasting picture of the working wife is drawn in a cou ple of publications which came across my desk today. One, "The Modern Mother's Dilemma," said that even today society puts the question. Home or Career." The other publication, "Wom anpower," doesn't try to solve woman s problem of adjusting to the dual role. It simply is a re port on the "revolution" in the employment of women i the last half century. Most Women Will Work The first, released by the non profit Educational Organization i'UDJic Allairs committee, is written by Mrs. Sidonie Matsner Gruenberg, former director of the Child Study Association of America, and her daughter, Mrs Hilda Sidney Krcch. The "Wornanpower" report is from the National Manpower council, a private, non partisan citizens' group established in 1951 at Columbia university. 'At least nine out of every 10 American women are likely to work outside the home in the course of their lives," said the council. loaays schoolgirls may ex pect to spend 23 years or more in paid work outside the home. Women, the council continued. will account for at least half of the expected increase of 10 mil lion persons in the labor force by 1965. Familiei Still First The council said women today earn one fifth of the nation's in come. Six of every 10 working women are married. Five out of 10 are past 40." "The combination of home and work may not be attempted by all or even most women," said the council. "But there is no question that it will be the goal of increasing numbers." Granted, said authors Gruen berg and Krech. But they added, "The notion still is prevalent that it is un womanly for a mother to think about having interests beyond her home. "It is utterly false to assume or imply that women "hanker after outside tctivity as an alter native to their home life. Most women want families first, and the other things in addition. "What many seem to have for gotten is that to be a complete mother, one also must be a com plete woman."
