BY SUSAN B. ANTHONY, II.
There is no shortage of women
in Washington who could fill the
ever increasing demands for work.
ers of the Federal Government and
private employer.
The womanpower is present, ac-
cording to sample polls of housing
projects, city blocks, and applica-
tions for nursery school care for
children.
Washington women, nurses, clerks,
maids, mattresses, teachers and
skilled manual workers are unable
to leave their houses even to seek
jobs, however, because they have no
place to leave their pre-school
children.
Nurse Tied to Home.
II have my uniform packed away
and haven't taken it out since I
had little Louis" said Registered
Nurse Mrs. Louis Cook OF 512 G
street Sc II would like to help
out in this shortage of nurses I
read about in the papers-even part
time But I can't find any nursery
school or any place which would
care Tor little Louis"
Il had to quit my job at res
taurant," said Mrs. Mary Swear
niger, 500 G street Sc. There
was no one to care for my children
who are too young to go to regular
school, s-
The children of Mrs. Cook and
other mothers in the block play
in the city street. Four-yea -old
Charles Wright was hit while play

Today, however, he and his young

streets.
Little Choice Available.
It's tossup for these mothers,
according to Mrs. c. L. Wright, 554
Sixth street Sc, whether to keep
their children in dark, dreary apart
ments or to let them play outdoors
alone and uncared for.
You see," said Mrs. SWearinger,
most of us don't even have the
use of the backyards of our rooming
houses"
A look into the living quarters
Of some of these mothers and chill
dren often reveals only two rooms
for a family of six, not much space
for play.
Mrs. Mary Jameson has tried to
find better housing for her four
children but few landlords seem to
want many young children, she
said. She was carrying her g.
month -old baby in her arms, while
trying to straighten the apartment
and keep an eye on the other chill
dren outside on the street.
Two blocks away is a park. But
there IS no planned play, no adult
to help the children learn and help
them to get to and from the park

child, 12-year-old Marie Dodson,

Affects Both Races.
Mrs. Wright said some of the
mothers tried to get their children
admitted to the nursery school
operated at nearby Friendship
House, but there is long waiting
list ahead of them.
The lack of care for pre-school-
age children affects both races.
At the Carrolsburg Housing Com

dwellings are lighter and there is
more grass Little children cavort
around on the street, jumping rope,
