Working Wives Are Needed
A letter to the editor in this week’s Journal calling
attention to “ unemployment at the height it is” and
suggesting a boycott of firms employing married women,
brings the need for closer scrutiny of the unemployment
situation.
Facts and statistics do not always agree and in this
case facts dispel any theory that working women have
caused an unemployment problem.
In Nyssa several business firms were asked about
working wives and it was revealed that in every case
one or more women are employed as much to give as
sistance to business firms as they are for the weekly pay
check. That point was verified by several women them
selves, in addition to their employers.
An extreme case is a mother of four children who re
tired from secretarial work several years ago, but was
persuaded to return to her job “ temporarily” until a re
placement could be located. In still another instance, a
mother, whose husband is gainfully employed, is de
voting several days a week to a job paying well above
the minimum wage requirements, but which leaves her
a net gain of about 35 cents an hour after extra exp
enses and deductions punch holes in her pay check. She
wants to be a full-time homemaker, but a replacement
cannot be found.
Similar situations exist throughout the community.
Produce houses report that all the married women em
ployed as sorters could not be replaced with men and
unmarried women, retail stores are generally agreed
“ they wouldn’t know where to look” if they were forced
to choose from the ranks of unemployed men and single
women.
Oregon’s so-called unemployment rolls have an un
canny means of growing when seasonal workers, both
men and women, take temporary jobs and then become
“ unemployed” when the work is terminated.
Right now the logging industry is in the doldrums
with many names on the list. Can you imagine a lumber
jack taking dictation or serving as a sales manager in
a woman’s ready-to-wear department?
Unfortunately, there — many
ng needing em_
■piovmcnt who make applications for typing jobs, yet
they have no knowledge of how to operate a typewriter;
there are those who would like to teach school and have
had no formal training and still others who aspire to
highly skilled professions with no effort put forth to
learn the work before asking for the job.
The entire problem seems to point to some failure
on the part of society to help prepare young people for
versatile careers and the desire to learn. Our educational
system cannot he blamed because society and public
jrir icr. have not come up With liny proposal that might
help balance the ever-present problem of where to find
help when so many are u n e m p l o y e d . _______________

Gate City Journal
Nyssa, Oregon
Dear Editor:
With unemployment at the
height it is, 35,000 to 45,000 in
the state, it seems to me that it
is ridiculous for so many men and
women to be working at more
than one job. I do not think both
husband and wife should hold
jobs and believe a business should
be boycotted when it is learned
that such persons are employed.
Also, I believe that credit buy
ing (easy payment plan) is detri
mental to most people; too many
would buy the moon, if they could
charge it.
What has become of the pay-in
advance, with discount for cash
business?

My friends. I have called you
my friends from time to time
because I want you to be my
friend and I want to be your
friend.
The reason I keep writing to
you is because I love Jesus
and He loved YOU and me so
much that He gave his fleshly
life for us and suffered that
painful death on the cross that
YOU and I might be saved.
AND SAVE!

There is no money or earthly

How much do you love God?
What are you doing to show
your love for Him? How much
time do you spend studying
His word? Or do you take
what someone else says about
what is right or wrong?
My friends, you may not like
these words that I quote from
the New Testament, from time
to time, but "They are spirit
and life.” John 6:63.
Those words are the Word
of God. They will still be the
same words when you and I
go before the judgment seat of
our God. Yes, we had better
learn to like them for they are
the same words wg V.’i!! b?
judged by, along with the book
that the deeds of our life are
written in Rev. 20:12.

Yes, we have the words of
the New Testament to find that
straight and narrow gate and
way which there which there
will be few that will find. Matt.
7:13-14: Luke 13:24.
If we study them carefully
and do what they say, no more,
no less, then we will find the
way, but my friends, we must
not take someone else’s word
for we may be found like the
ones in Luke 13:25-27 and Matt.
7:15-21.
