Vars Effect in British Empire
Told at Washington Club Panel
By Gretchen Smith
Women's Club Editor.

women doctors had become increas-
ingly popular and their position is
now established.
Discussing ecucation ira the diff
ferent countries of the British Com
monwealth, it was agreed that a
teacher shortage exists everywhere
All speakers said that whereas sal-
aries had been raised in their coun-
tries recently, the recompense for
teaching is still too little to at
tract women into the profession.
In Canada, Miss Savage explained,
the teacher shortage has had one
beneficial effect-it has eliminated
long existing discrimination against
married women who are now ac-
cepted as teachers in the Dominion.
Mrs. Chapman commenting on
the shortage in Australia asserted
they expected the new government
to pass legislation giving better pay
to teachers.
Women's participation in politics
disclosed that all five countries show
increasing feminine participation in
this field with England, however, the
only one having woman member
of the Cabinet, its Minister of Edu-
cation.
In answer to a question, Mis- Bur-
bridge said that the war instead of
having i'll effects upon the health
of the English people due to food
shortage, had in reality had bene-
fcial effect as rationed foods in
cluded vitamins and other nu-
tritive qualities that many of Eng |
lands poorer had never known.
The forum was the first in Sc
ries planned by Mrs. Mark Eldrigde,
program chairman of the Washing |
ton Club, designed to present prob
lens of other nationals to the mem
bership.
A concluding remark from Miss
Savage summed up ideas behind the
forum discussions, II think that an
understanding Of peoples problems
will bring greater friendship in the
world
Mrs. Cloyd Heck Marvin, presi-
dent of the club, presided and in
troduced the speakers.
