To the Editor of the *Nortu-Cuina Dany News"
Sin beg to draw your attention to the definite trend in both government and private organs in China to stop the further employment of women on their staffs and to graually replace those women already so employed, with men. Many of the leading business firms Including several large banks, have already begun the laying-off of their women employees, Tt will be recalled that shortly afler its inauguration at Nanking, the National Government initiated the movement to employ women in government offices, as an ind! of Its avowed policy of equality of sexes.
Just what were the reasons for this reversal of state policy are not readily apparent, Be that as it may, the new policy works great hardship fon the women, many of whom are college graduates and fully qualified for the positions they are holding, It fs neither just nor a good policy that disqualification based on sex yatiier then capacity should be instituted, Kwox.
