BY BEN BOWERS

Homemakers are coming 70 rea-
lie that their work in rearing chill
dren and in maintaining home
counts as an economic contributor
to their families = and that this
cpats-ibltDa dah Be reckoned in dol
lars and therefore protected by life
insurance.
Recently. reports the Institute of
Life Insurance. YonkerS. N. Y,
expert in family living calculated
that 1t would cost a family more
than S. 800 year for housekeeping
and other services where the family
consists of a widower and two very
young children. The figure in Farm
vile would vary some. and to the
lower side because of the lower
cost of living in an agricultural area
as compared with that of a metro
politan area. However, variations of
wages for part-time housekeepers,
maids and baby sitters would not
be so great that an area wife
couldn't have a 5000 a year value.
The Health Institute has geared
the New York mans study to eX-
ploring why wives are making in
creased use of life insurance. They
explain that when a father buys
life insurance. his agent can ana
lyZe his family responsibilities in
light of his earnings and savings,
and thus be able to determine the
scope of a protection program for
his family.
But, when it comes to a similar
program for mother, her "finan-
cial value to her family could not
be measured as precisely-at least
in the past.
Elliot H. Drisko, the Yonkers ex-
pert in family living, calculated how
much family in his locality would
= have TO pay for housekeeping and
other services, where the family
consists of a Widower and two chill
dren. aged four and IL months. IN
his study for the Family Service So
ciety, he decided that the family
would need one full-time and two
part-tlme employees
He listed them as. ~ comb
nation nurse goyerness at $40 d
week, y part time h0uSekaCper
for 10 hours week, at $l5G ar
hour. and 49, baby sitter for SIX
hours a week for AZ weeks a year,
at 81 an hour.
Their combined salaries. together
with the Social Security taxes which
the family would have to pay, come
to more than $1,000 a year, in thai
locality. Or assuming that the young
father would remain unmarried as
long as five years, as might be. the
case, the cost of household help over
this period would be nearly $50 900
The report says that added to
these would have to be the cost Of
Worknen'G Compensation lnslira nee

Housekeeping? $1,000 A Year Maybe?:

and liability insurance for the three
employees. And Drisko adds that
further sums would be needed for
advertising, interviewing. screening
and subsequent training of the help.
The study noted that even though
both parents will probably live to
see their c'hildr e n grown. and
dandle their grandchildren on their
knees. it is obvious that many
young families agree it is logical for
the father and the mother to carry
life insurance protection.
Again. it is important to empha-
size the fact that a mother might
not be valued quite as high in Farm
vile as this illustration in New
York because of the difference in
the cost of living. But. the study
will give few fathers a more vivid
impression of what the boss of the
house amounts to in dollars, even
