Clubs Give 60,000 Hours ork Per Week To Unemployed The National Federation of Business and Professional Women's clubs has done its share of helping solve the unemployment problem by the contribution of 60,000 hours of paid work a week to unemployed women. Between January 20 and February 20 more than 1,300 business and professional women's clubs throughout the country participated. Each Club was assigned a quota of work hours to furnish equivalent to its employed membership.

Business and professional women were asked to provide work for other women by employing them for sewing, mending, cleaning, laundry work, cooking and various forms of personal service. The plan is based upon the assumption that every woman actually employed can without serious sacrifice spend at least 50 cents a week in helping an unemployed woman. Calculation was made at federation headquarters that if everyone of; the 60,000 members of the National Federation to whom Mrs. Geline MacDonald Bowman, national president, appealed for support of the plan contributed a single work hour. weekly, an aggregate of $120,000 would be spent during the four weeks of the experiment.

In proposing the plan to 1,325 business and professional women's clubs Mrs. Bowman stated frankly that she was making the experiment in her own organization with a view to recommending it to other women's organizations if it was practical.
