Quoted by the Women's Occupa-
tional Council, disclosed that, while
openings may be expected in the
next few months, there are not
nearly enough jobs to meet the need,
1t was reported last night.
Employers were cordial and
showed great interest in the can
vass, it was said. The consensus,
however, was that jobs for mature
women must be created.
The women err by underselling
themselves, it was stated. The can
vass also indicated that women must
learn to develop their own ideas and
sell them to employers. 1t was found
that women are particularly COM
petent in developing services in
stores such as personal shopping
services, styling in house furnish
