Cent of Women Are Now Eco
nomic Nonentities

CHICAGO. June l5.--Fifty-fve per cent
of the women of the United States are
"happers" according to statistics Mrs Ray
mond Robins said today. In other words,
only forty-five out of every hundred Amer
lean women work for a living.
"Ffty-hve per cent" Mrs. Robins said,
"are in a class just above industry. They
are II supported class They do nothing in
industry and do not enter the professions.
I'VE want to recruit the 'nappers.' We
want them to fill the places of the men who
have gone to war.
A lapper, as defined by Noah Webster,
is a young game bird, especially a duck not
able to fly well.
"'Flappers.' said Mrs Robins, ARE
women whose wings are yet untried, but
who will find them in the service of their
country"
