THE WOMEN-- It's 13,OOO,OOO Women's Privilege To Change Minds

hunting when peace returns.
 For one thing, the equality of pay, seniority and consideration that many feminists have been pleading for isn't here yet, And If they don't come along, a lot of women will probably chuck the whole idea of @ career in business or industry,
 These will be the women who have done mans work, and put up with many unfeminine discom- forts, to help, get the war won sooner. They have acquired new skills and 0 taste for independence. Their work has been praised by en. .ployers and plant managers, Naturally, they feel that they de. serve consideration, regardless of sex or marital status.
 And they have lot of good ar' guments on their side. But If they get the same old song and dance once the war is won, they may throw up their hands and say, Whats the uSe2"-especially fl there is added pressuret. at home And there is bound to be that.
 MEN WANT HoMELIFE
 A lot of young soldiers coming hcme to their flancees or young brides are going to want home and family more than they want an addition to the family income, Older women war workers will find their husbands and growing children dc. mandlng a change from the late meals and half-kept house which have been the inevitable conse- quence of Mothers job.
 If l3 million women were to co1- tinue in peacetime industry there would have to be a change In our social structure which isn't now on the horizon-new and permanent child care centers and nursery schools, heavier responsibility on or regular school system, more gov' ernmental concern with home life.
 Rightly or wrongly, this would be new order that the majority Of the American public isn't ready for ard probably doesn't want.

models introduce parachute" sleeves with fullness caught in at the wrist. Suits have jackets with easy.iltted tops.
 Evidence that Parlslans antici- pate o lack of heating during the coming winter is seen in the pres ponderance of wool used even in formal afternoon costumes and in fur-lined coats, Corduroy and vel- vet are popular for suits as well as coats, also trimmings. Embroidery is used in subtle touches on dressy dinner frocks. Most of these herald the return of black for formal wear with scarlet, beige, bottle green, cocoa brown for street year.
 FEW FUR TRIMMINGS
 While the shortage of furs linn. tied the number of fur-trimmed and all-fur models which was al. ways Q feature of this house, those shown bear the unmistakable PeQuin stamp. They include o handsome black astrakhan hared redingote and 0 stupendous model fashioned of no less than ten full silver fox skins. Large pillow muffs and fur hats provide an added note of luxe ury. A distinct equatorial Africa ir- fiuence is seen in the hats, which mainly are of pastel velvet
 There were only two evening models-one e light tobacco brown tulle with iridescent sequin embroid- cry forming basque effect and U romantic black velvet gown with bodice dotted with pearls.
