Show More Women Listed As Heads of Families WASHINGTON. - Another aftermath after-math of war years was disclosed in a census bureau report that increas- j ing numbers of women have moved into positions of "heads of families" ; that is. the major bread-winner for j the family. In 1940 only 15 per cent of Amer- I ican families looked to a woman as the family head, the report re- j veals, while by V-E Day, the percentage per-centage had climbed to nearly 22. This means, the bureau says, that three million more families have a I woman as the main support. |
