Mrs. Emerson Anderson, Mrs. Everette Lash er, Mrs. John Strong, and Mrs. Thomas McCamant The status of women in the "SDace Age" was illustrated hT a scrips of brief interviews It was stated that women are now employed in 446 dif ferent kinds of jobs and that one-third of all workers are women. The typical woman worker of today is older and better educated than former ly. Many women whose chil ' dren are grown are returning to school for further educa tion before going back to em ployment outside the home. It is no longer unusual to find grandmothers attending col lege. Women are represented in all professions. The largest number are in education, 75 per cent of all teachers in America are women. One group of 'workers which has increased greatly is that of young wives who are helping their husbands finish their education. Many of these, as well as other young working wives are mothers. This has led to the growing vocation of all-day baby sitter. More and more women are holding public office. The 86th Congress has a record num ber of 17 women and 123 women have been appointed to key positions in the nation al government. Hold Office In the area of legislation, at all levels from local to national, women are taking an increasing interest. They are assuming responsibility in party organizations. Both in dividually and through some of their club programs many ar trrinp ponscientiouslv to " - - o i un&cm inform themselves on issues Queen Specifically, AAUW is back- measures relating to migra tory workers are being en dorsed by the organization. These are HB 136, providing safety regulations for motor vehicles transporting workers, HB 139, designed to set up a Dilot program for the educa tion of migrant children, and HB 159, relating to sanitary conditions in farm labor camps. Support is also being urged for HB 594 which would give aid to educational TV. The school appropriation bill, HB 514, is another one AAUW favors. In spite of all these "out side" activities which claim the American woman's time, home is still her central sphere of activity, it was said. Setting its spiritual and moral tone is her deepest concern. She is aware of her responsi bility in the guidance of the early development of her children's minds and Derson- alities. Realizing the multiple role which will be demanded of her daughters, the women of tomorrow, she seeks for them as well as her sons the best education they can get.
