THE sURPIUsawoMAN PROBLEM

The war is increasing the previous
ly existing surplus of the worlds
women. One of three conditions il
inevitable: q large; number Of womeH
forced to remain husband1ess and
chfld1ess; legal and social approval OF
Unmarried mothers legal pelygamy
In Physical Cultures symp esiun On
marriage the second radical alterna-
tive suggested Of the legal and social
approval and possible government aid
Of unmarried mothers, is Haueh more
faEerably entertained than Pelygaay.
Tn ns group except religious leaders
is this approval favored by less than
eHs-f fourth of the group. Among men
except in two or three conservative
groups, over half approve of the an
married mot1er-at least in case the
war can be made to bear the respon-
sibi7ity for the change. The largest
approval OF all is among the women
writer's. q! IS LIB -sstss. ''a-@s'@] -
This growing sense of the wenaan's
right to motherhood, regardless OF
her ability to get and keep hus
band, is one Of the astonishing phases
of the present-day ferment Of moral
ideas. It is expressed by one wosn-
an in the phrase 1.-THE right to meth
erfeed is a law Of Nature, not of
man" @Es So -
The old sacred ideal Of the happy
home, with father, mother and chill
dren, is still the goal Of all marriage
ambitions that we may be GER
tain. The increasing federation Of
other possible arrangements is not
because Of a depreciation Of that
ideal but because Of a realization that
the ideal is not universally attainable.
Those who would approve Of unmar-
ried motherhood consider It not desir-
able but necessary. In short they
recognize that the greatest need Of a
woman and the greatest need of a
State for woman is that she be a
mother. IF she cannot be mother
and about half Of the English wora-
en- cannot be-because she cannot
have husband, there is growing
belief that children with absentee
fatherhood. are better than no chill
dren at all.
The fact that such opinions exist
may come as a shock to many con-
sentative minds. TINE facts Of the
growth of such opinions may be of
use to the advocates Of the legaliza-
ton Of unmarried motherhood. The
fact of that growth may also be
made use Of as a cali to arms for
those whose purpose is to keep the
ways Of woman to the, paths her
mothers trod. But of this thing there
can be no doubt, that the existing or
der Of society is going to be- rocked
to it's foundation by the waves of So
ciaI change that wiz be following in
the wake Of war, Out OF that rocking
will many new things come.-FroIn
