"I have recently been interested in
ascertaining the definite reasons why
employers haye felt that tlie positions
in their establishments were not most
effectively filled, by women," writes
Edward Bok of "The Return of tbe
Business Women," in the March
Ladies' Home Journal, "The reasons
are as varied as they are interesting.
Tbe lack of physical endurance and
the unreliability caused by physical
considerations were, the main causes.
Tbe lack of executive ability was given
■is tbe main reason in positions of
trust, and the friction caused by the
objection of women subordinates to receive orders-from one of their own sex.
Pending or "impending matrimonial
engagements were also a very pronounced cause. The proprieties also
came in for their share, the merchant
not feeling that he could ask his:' female secretary or clerk to remain, after
businoss hours. The trader felt that-
he coula not send a woman off on a
mission which required hasty packing
and preparations for travel at an hour's
notice. In a number of cases women
seemed to object, and were inclined to
accuse their employers of forgetting
the social amenities when they spoke
sharply to them. In these cases
women always seemed to remember
that they were womem, and made
their employers remember it, too.
Illness in tbe family, which would
not necessitate a man's absence at the
office, keeping the woman at home,
was another reason. And so went on
tbe reasons which made employers decide that they preferred men to women
In their offices. And as I carefully
went over the reasons, each pointed to.
simply one thing; the unnatural posi
tion of woman in business."
