Feminine Rivalry Is
ITnrecOgniZed in BritOn

London, Oct. IS CA. +. by MaiD-
Although another report has been
submitted by a commission recon-
mending an increase in the number
of women police employed in Eng
land. il is predicted in many
quarters that such Recommended =
ton will not be speedily carried out,
The fact of the matter Is that al
though great political and social
changes have taken place in Eng
land, this is still u country OF
masculine domination. albeit the
women received the vote during the
war. What the women must over
come is the traditional prejudice
which men have against feminine
competition in the various caiiingS
OF life.
Sin Neville Macready. forme- nee d
OF the London police force, thinks
that London alone might usefully
employ 200 women police constables,
whereas at the present time there
are only 10 women on the police
force of the whole country.
Although women who arc carry
ing on the fight over here to win
recognition FOR women of all the
rights which men enjoy, hail the
police commissions report as a
victory. they realize that much
ancient prejudice must be overcome
before the English ''coppette" can
enter into the fuilness of jobs which
were so long the exclusive property
of the sterner sex.
