MARRIED WOMEN AT WORK
Sir, —Mrs Furey’s reply to Dame Hilda Ross is both timely and accurate
and is deserving of every housewife’s praise. Dame Hilda Ross should see that her Parliamentary colleagues rectify the country’s economics, which automatically would improve the tot of the housewife and so render any controversy unnecessary.—Yours, etc., MARIE LYNNE. June 8. 1956.
Sir,—Dame Hilda Ross deplores delinquent parents. I deplore a delinquent Government, which, in spite of election promises, has allowed the cost of living to rise so high that mothers are forced to work; a government which takes our boys away from their homes at the time they need home life; which gives them weekend leave and has done nothing to cater for their leisure, but leaves them to walk the streets. It is such organisations as the Y.M.C.A. we have to thank for doing something for them. Let Dame Hilda Ross see to these things before asserting that all delinquency lies with the parents, or our youths—Yours, etc., ‘ MAY E. FUREY. June 12, 1956.
