Another first" for Washing
ton is the new Steuben glass
room, a replica of the famous
Fifth Avenue shop, which opened
yesterday at a popular F street
store.
The success story of this flaw
less glass starts back more than
thirty years ago. 1t was in 1918
when Corning Glass Works first
purchased the Steuben Glass
Works from Frederick Carder, an
English glassmaker, who founded
the company as an "art glass"
firm in 1908. The ensuing years
proved it was not particularly
successful enterprise, and in the
summer of 1888, the directors
seriously considered discontinuing
the line But Arthur Amory
Houghton, jr., great-grandson
of the founder, asked that it be
given another chance. He re-
organized the project working on
an entirely new set of principles.
Design must indicate the new
course of Steuben glass. Fortu-
nately, in the same year a chemi-
cal formula for crystal glass of
matchless purity and transpar-
ency was achieved that could be
produced with full confidence in
the undertaking uniformity OF the
material. Houghton brought into
the fold John Monteith Gates, q
promising young architect, who
in turn called in Sidney Waugh
the sculptor These three young
men, all under thirty at the time,
charted the course that Steu-
ben crystal was to follow in the
years ahead Production was
virtually halted when all three
entered the armed forces after
Pearl Harbor, but in 1945 the
wheels were once more set in mo-
ton. The rest of the story is
history. Now production is nor

their way from blowing room te

who passed away on April II,

But all we have is memory

And saw you go away;
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.

Since this great sorrow came;

United States has more than
doubled, but the number of
women employed has tripled. In
December, 1949, one and one-half
million women in 1.-The United
States were working in their own
businesses, professions and
trades and one hundred and
seventy-three thousand were
operating farms of their own. In
former years women were usual
ly employed between the time
they left school and marriage.
Today over one-half of the Wo-
men employed are thirty-five
years of age or older and more
than one.half of them are mar
ried. In 1910 there were more
than one million stenographers,
seven hundred thousand clerical
workers, five hundred thousand
sales-women, seventy-four thou
sand religious, social and welfare
workers and sixty-six thousand
operators of eating establish
ments. Women reporters and
journalists jumped from forty
three in 1870 to over fifteen
thousand in 1910. Between 1910
and 1910 the number of women
lawyers and judges increased
over eight hundred percent. In
1910 there were over twenty
thousand college presidents and
professors and more than one
thousand dentists. In the last
decade the above figures have
increased greatly. 1t is interest
ing to note that today there are
more than two thousand women
registered as embalmers and flu
neral directors. The number of
women hold official titles in
banks has more than doubled
since 1912. Of the two hundred
and eighty thousand employees
of the fifteen thousand banks in
the United States, over one hun
dred and forty thousand are
women. In the 1910 census four
hundred and .fifty-one occupa-
tional clasSifications were used,
| Women were employed in all but
nine of these.
Women comprise, about six per
cent of all persons listed in the
1949 edition of "Who's Who In
America" Over twenty -four
hundred women are included
The median age of those included
was fifty-seven.
More women attended univer.
sites and colleges in 1949 thar
ever before, although men stu
dents still outnumber women by
almost three to one.
More than four hundred anc
forty thousand women are EN-
ployed by the federal govern
