Too Much Leisure
BY DIR. LOUIS Z. BISCH
Eminent Psychologist.

A CCORDING to a bulletin issued by the
- Department of Commerce regarding the
1920 u. S. Census. eight and one-half
million women were employed in various gainful
occupations throughout the country as against
thirty-three million men.
Also, the increase of women workers since
1910 was only about half a million.
In other words, not more than one-quarter Of
the female population of America was employed
outside the home when those figures were COM
piled.
Such estimates, to be sure, would be cause
for rejoicing were we to conclude that those
women not employed outside the home were
actually employed within the home.
But were they? Are they now?
Is ID not safe TO assume that out IT the
twentv-four and a half million women who are
