Believing that conservation of
the home is the outstanding
challenge to women today, Mrs.
Robert A. Angelo, president of
the National Council OF Catholic
Women, likes the slogan being
circulated by its Parent and Fam
lily Education Committee.
IF We lose the home, We shall
have lost the war" the slogan
runs. And If We lose the child,
We shall have lost the future of
America.
Here from York. Pa, for the
institute in Catholic leadership
training being held by women
leaders under council auspices,
Mrs. Angelo is especially active in
that phase of the program GEN.
tering on family life.
OF greatest concern to the
Committee on Parent and Family
Education, she said, is the ques-
ton OF day nurseries tor chill
dren whose mothers are being
employed in war work.
For her own part, Mrs. Angelo
feels strongly that mothers Of
young children should not be
called into industries before every
other labor possibility has been
thoroughly explored.
Where their employment be-
comes necessary, however, she be-
lieves the industries themselves
should take the initiative in es-
tablishing nurseries.
Some hospitals, she said, al
ready are beginning to set up day
care centers to enable women
with nurses training to re-enter
their professions.
Mrs. Angelo added that the
committee is interested in the
plan for block nurseries which
can be operated entirely as =
voluntary neighborhood effort.
This arrangement, she pointed
out, has several advantages-one
OF the most important being that
1t permits the child to remain
close to home.
Under the plan, she explained,
one or more mothers can take
care Of all the children in the
block at a given time, freeing
nearby neighbors for other activ-
tiles.
Where mothers are anxious to
participate in volunteer war serv-
ice programs, she said, the block
