Census Aide
Addresses
Women
Rise in Practical
Jobs Forecast
By Cormick

Future Job seekers in the next 20
years will find practical work more
plentiful than careers with glamour,
Ernest j. Mccormick, occupational
expert at the Bureau of the Census,
predicted In an address last night
at dinner meeting Of the Business
and Professional Women's Club at
the Admiral Club.
"Women's Opportunity to Earn in
a Democracy" was the subject of
Mr.. McCormick's talk in which he
expressed his belief that future en-
ployment would show only a slight
increase in the more alluring occu-
pations and professions.
Most Of the combined efforts Of
all workers must be In the actual
production Of necessities or in direct
services" he said.
Although the last 20 years have
shown an increase in women in
employment, the proportion has not
gone up noticeably because the
number of men workers has in
creased also, Mr.. Mccormick also
said. Adding that the number Of
both women and men seeking en-
ployment will continue to increase,
due to the growth in population,
Mr.. Mccormick expressed doubt
