STATUS OF WOMEN
MAY CHANCE AFTER WAR DEMAND FOR FINANCIAL INDEPENDENCE. BRITISH HOME SECRETARY’S PREDICTION. < (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Dav. 12.45 p.m.) LONDON. June 6. “One post-war question may be whether wives are to be financially dependent, or independent, by having a statutory income deducted from their husband’s income,” said the Home Secretary, Mr Herbert Morrison, in a speech. "That will be the next item on the agenda paper,” ho added, "and I warn you that it is coming. What women did in the last war is child's play compared with what they are doing now. Women are going to be a handful to manage at the end of this war. They will demand changes.”
