The growth of factories, too, has
created jobs that women are phy-

Girls were often found to be

They flocked to the offices for jobs.

More Jobs For Women

WASHINGTON Employment
for women is increasing while
male employment is dropping.
The number of employed u. S.
women increased from 16.602,000
In May 1948 to 17,173.000 in May
this year. But in the same periodic
the number of men at work drop
ped from 42,05S,000.
These are Census Bureau figures
as analyzed and reported by the
Women's Bureau of Labor Depart
ment.
Unemployment is hitting both
sexes alike. The number of women
and men seeking work rose al
most 1909 for each sex. This is
all a continuation of long trend.
/ Since the turn of the century, and
earlier, the number Of women
working and seeking work has
been on the increase. In the pres
ent period cf unemployment, the
trend has been accentuated.
Take the figures on the total
labor force-the total of men and
women both working and seeking
work. The nations labor force in
creased from 60,422,000 in May
194S to 81 1888, 900 in May 1949.
Among men the increase in that
period was only 1.49o. Among wo-
nien the increase was $3.50.
I Women constituted only 1870 of
the total labor in 1900. They were
! 299o of the labor forces last May.
Twenty per cent of women of II
and older were gainfully employ
ed in 1900. Last May 314o Of them
+ had jobs.
The trend for men was the re-
verse. Only 7116 of the adult male
population was gainfully employed
in May 1949. Yet 8796 of adult ma.
les were employed in 1900. The
drop, has been sharp even since
1910, when 1870 of adult males
were working.

Kinescope TV Wins the Approval
! of Enthusiastic Ed Wynn
By Harry Macarthur

Ed Wynn, whose comedy always
was cut to something less than It's
normal size by radio, is full OF
enthusiasm for television. It's a
safe bet that television audiences
will return the compliment and be
full of enthusiasm for Ed wynn
once he launches his planned
weekly Tv show over CHS in the
fall.
MIR. Wynn is a member OF the
visual comedy school, along with
Bobby Clark and. in their fashion,
Olsen and johnson. The very
sight of his foolish, befuddled eX-
preston is enough to start an audi
ence laughing. He does not rely
on listener imagination. which is
the prop of more radio comedy
than you realize. Mr.. Wynn de-
pends. instead, on outlandish deed
and garb and such inventors fam
tastes as a typewriter carriage for
eating corn on the cob and fork
with q nose guard for eating ripe
imported cheese.
The comedian also is man who
Is theater-wise and in televlslon
he sees an extension Of the theater.
"There is nothing so essential,
30 necessary to the contentment
Of a community, or the Nation at
large, as amusement" he was say
ing in New York the other day.
"Theater was the quintessence of
amusement. But in the progress
of civilization has come thing
called television. Now, instead OF
a few thousand persons coming to
see an entertainer in a theater,
the vis-a-vis entertainer goes out
into millions of homes"
Mr.. Wynn has been in New York
recently, discussing plans for the
Forthcoming show. which will be
the first major program originating
in Hollywood. The comedian de-
cided on that when he discovered
the present quality of kinescope
recordings and learned enough
about them to believe the time not
too distant when kinescope will
equal the quality of live television.
If kinescope does improve this
much it will be good news to Jack
Benny, who recently studied filmed
television shows and postponed his
video plans. Whatever Mr.. Benny
does. however, Mr.. Wynn is sure
what he's going to do. He's going
to leap headlong into television.
Radio, not that we think any,
thing ought to be done about it.
has been handed some gratuitous
insults in recent weeks by the
movies. Whether or not it is a
trend is not Immediately dis
cernible. but two of Metro
Goldwyn-Mayer's more lavish
recent releases have taken passing
swipes at giveaway shows. .
In "Neptune's Daughter" there's

fantastic jackpot by locking him.

snaps on a radio and walks out
of the room, followed by the voice
OF an announcer detailing the
airplanes, automobiles, mink
coats, vacation trips, ETC.. about
to be given away. 1t has nothing
at all to do with the picture,
but it's a funny moment unless
you are a sensitive radio execu-
tive. The same sort of jibe turns
