UNEMPLOYMENT SOLUTION
“WOMEN’S PLACE NOT INDUSTRY.”
AUSTIN SUPPORTS HITLER IDEA. By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright London, Sept. 24. Addressing the Oxford conference of works directors, managers and foremen, Sir Herbert Austin urged the adoption by Britain of Herr Hitler’s idea of removing women from industry. The women of Britain had built round themselves a position they had not occupied before the war, Sir Herbert said. Industry was not the women’s place, and he was confident that if they were all removed, except perhaps in the cotton industry, it would solve the unemployment problem. British industry was now unable to support higher wages or a shorter week; unless the world was better organised a definite move in the opposite direction might be expected—increasing hours and reducing wages was a more economical basis.
