The problaan of the married woman worker is one which has beeat much to the fare in Great Britain of recent Years, and the whale question was lis oausse•d by Iters, W. T. Layton at the annual 'conference of the National. Oatmefl of, Women in Great Britain, Which was recently held in London far die first time in nine years. Mrs. Layton reviewed the problem of married women wo'a•icean from three different points of view: that of the manned woman herself, the employer, and the community. Every maarri,ed woman, saki Mrs. Layton, must decide this question for herself, and it was gratuitous im'peetneencea for outside authorities or the general public to matte the decision for her. Many eta- - men had been in profeestonal life paler to marriage, tend had spent much time and • money on making themselves ef- flcd,ent. The only point of view for the eine doyrer to hold was whether he was getting the best person for the job. The way lm which the work was done should be the test, tact whether the worker was married oa• unmarried. Married Women Work. IIre. Ayrteon argued that the com- munity itself bernefitted by merrled women's, work. Married women teach- ers were better• qualjfled to deal with chiJkiaen iii the schools if they had al- ready had children themselves. Chad - ren le the homes, tea, developed a wideroutlook and broader views when their mothers were 'more in contact with the outside world. Housing was the keynote • of the whale coneersnce,, and this problem cropped up at intervals all through the theeeeelays, gathering. Councillor Mrs. Price -White discussed `Electricity in the Ilom.e." 1blrs. Gee:: orae Morgan, a vice -provident of the cotiecili, said the Malvern branch had erected over 40 self-contained flats with small garden plots attached, at a. cost of £300 to £360 for each domicile; the Bromley branch was building' cottagee; Cam- bridge was oonventing large houses in- to fiats for professional women; in Bath, a tenement venture scheme was in pr ogees, end Birnnin;gham branch was converting old derelict properties; into habitable abodes.
