It is known that there are about 44,500,000 females in the present population.

Now in 1900 there were about 141/2 per cent of all the girls and women in the country over ten years of age at work a part or all of the time.

Apply to the new figure this proportion, and you have between six and seven millions, which is called 7,000,000 here, on the supposition that the proportion may have increased.

The percentage of women in each of the various occupations in 1900 is assumed still to exist.

Its officials are strong believers in a Domestic Workers' Union.
