Cuts
Suffered by
rs Per Gent

For the first time, definite and
authentic information on the effect
of unemployment on the business
and professional woman has been
obtained through survey Of its
members just completed by the
American Woman's Association of
New York City.
This is an organization Of over
1000 women engaged in the profess
sionS, and the upper realms of bust
ness. The study was made in con-
nection with President Hoover's
emergency committee for employ
ment and is based on more than
1000 detailed questionnaires.
The collective experience of this
metropolitan group offers surprising
evidence of the difficulties which
even the high grade wage-earner
has to meet nowadays. Here is a
group with a median salary of
5000, half of whom have some in
vestments in addition to earnings.
Nearly 80 per cent are college
graduates and lis per cent have
postgraduate degrees. In short,
because of their preparation, ex-
perience and capacity to earn these
women seem especially fortunate.
Yet 81 per cent of them are I'M
employed and Is per cent have had
serious reductions in their earnings.
Public Jobs Steady
Despite this sober evidence of
hard times the study presents
many cheering and interesting facts.
Dhat it suggests on the relative
stability of occupations is of direct
Importance to the woman wage
Garner.
If she wants to be more than
usually certain of her job she'd bet
ter work for Uncle Sam or for the
public schools or some endowed or
ganization.
For among the 1000 individuals
only is per cent of the teachers
and other educational workers, only
IL per cent in governmental service
and only 40 per cent of those en-
IOWCO VI SoAIAAdC1O1lS are uQem-
ployed.
On the other hand, from 11.5 per
cent of IA per cent of those en-
ployed in manufacturing, CONNER
cial and transportation and COM
munication companies have been
thrown out of work.
Sure Salaries Lowest
For the most part, it is true.
these safe and traditional paths do
not pay so well as more unusual
occupations. The woman who takes
an odd line of her own must face
the uncertainties of her adventure
by saving part of her higher re-
wards against periods of depres-
sion.
Hundreds of women in this group
are falling back on savings to tide
them over unemployment or salary
cuts.
AS for length of service, the
American Woman's Association con-
firms the general theory that it is
the long established employe who
is most apt to keep her position.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1931-11-23

Over third more of the employed
women as compared with those I'M
employed have been on their jobs
over period of more than four
years.
Likewise, there is a tendency for
unemployment risk to decrease in
proportion to education. It isn't
that having college degree guar
antees holding a job. Exceptional
ability counts far more than a
sheepskin and many an individual
with less than high school training
was found within the group earn
ing $1,000 year.
Nevertheless, the tabulation of
these records show that those who
have training beyond high school
are represented largely in the en-
ployed group. Another portion of
it made up Of women who have
advanc ed degrees beyond the A. B.
and those with some form of tech
nical training such as normal
school, statistics, copy writing, etc.
Two further facts from the sur
vey are decidedly hAartening. So
far as this special group is con-
cerned, women are not being dis
eliminated against on either of the
two grounds which have usually
proved prejudicial-age and mar
riage.
Among the unemployed members
only 3.5 per cent are between Al
and As years of age, whereas IL
per cent are under Is years. Nor
were married women found to be
unemployed in any greater degree
than those unmarried.

WHAT'S IN FASHION?-
The $ O'Clock Dress for Tea Til

NEW YORK. Nov. 23.-There's
IN a new kind Of dress making a
place for itself in fashionable ward
robes. It's called, for lack of bet
ter name, "the o'clock dress" And,
after all, that's pretty good de-
scription.
Because o'clock is a sort Of in
between hour of the day-neither
afternoon nor evening.
And this is an in-between dress
one that was invented to fill need
growing out of the greater formal
ity of present day life.
Some of New York's smart set
began it-flling in that between
hour of with lots of interesting
things. Dropping around to a
friends house for hors d'oeuvres be-
fore dinner starting again that
old time ceremonial of tea from 5
to g."
Use Grows Wider
Gradually it began appearing at
other functions. Late afternoon
weddings with breakfast" and re-
ception following.
Informal dinners at home and
informal dinners in restaurants.
Informal evening bridge parties at
home.
The 5 o'clock dress is more formal
than a regular afternoon dress
because it's longer lower calf
or ankle length. It's less formal
than the supper dress because it
generally has sleeve-to the elbow
or longer.
When you wear this dress outside
your own home, you also wear a hat.
In that it's like the afternoon dress
but different from the supper dress.
Short Jacket Popular
With the o'clock dress, Pari-
siennes wear a formal three-quarter
length coat of a soft material like
velvet or broadcloth. Here the short
fur jacket is the popular wrap for
this dress.
But it's not incorrect to wear a
regular daytime coat-provided this
coat is a dressy type and not
sports type.
Velvet, crepe and heavy sheer fab
RIGS are the best materials for
dresses of this type Black and
brown are good colors, especially
If you choose velvet. But deep
tones like fuchsia, wine and sap
phire blue are even smarter.
Even softer, brighter colors are
used, too, such as aqua blue, per-
sian red and green, deep coral and
light fuchsia.
Sleeves Garry Detail
Most of the detail of these dresses
is found in the sleeves. Puffs are
a popular decoration.
Fine "dreSSmaker" details such as
pin tuckS or pleats are also used in
novel ways. Often the sleeves are
trimmed with bit of beading or
Persian embroidery.
This coming Observation-Disclosures
glv1ng-will probably see many of
these 5 o'clock dresses round the
festive board.
This o'clock dress can make you
look most romantic, and if your
ensemble is fiawless, you'll be the
hit of the next party. Well tell
you how If you'll write Amos Par

1t is dusk and the sWeltering heat
is oppressive The faint breath of
wind has taste OF rain in it. On
the dinly lit corner of It'll St. and
Avenue A a crowd Of workers mills
about.
There are thousands of them. All
in their shirt sleeves. Men, women
and children. Workers - Russian,
Polish, Lett, Americans and Jews.
Driven out of their tenements by the
intense, sticky heat
The great crowd encircles a speak
ers' stand upon which there is Ne
gro, with thick scornful lips. These
lips which are usually defiant are
now dropping. He is not speaking
to the assembled crowd, but is lean
ing on the rail, uncertain.
The crowd is jammed up around
The speakers stand. There is hub
Dub of conversation, indistinct, with
now and then an angry, strident
voice raising above the crowds voice
demonstrating. The crowd is not
angry-but is the next thing to it,
indignant. Indignation seethes from
the crowd. 1t is restless and menac-
ing.
The squat, sturdy speaker straight
ems up. He holds up his arm, COM
handing attention. His mouth opens
