A major factor contributing
to tire higher incidence of
poverty among minority group
women was their concentration
in low-paying jobs.
These are among findings in
a study, “Mature Women
Workers: A Profile,” issued by
the U.S. Labor Department’s
Women’s Bureau.
Carmen R. Maymi, director
of the Women’s Bureau, said:
“The study, which examines
the economic status of mature
women and their
employment-related problems,
provides the base for a
Women’s Bureau program
directed to women in their
middle years who are working
or seeking work.
“We are especially
concerned with the reentry
problems of women who have
been absent from the labor
force because of family
responsibilities and now seek
to return to work.”
According to the report, the
labor force participation rate
of women 45 years of age and
over has risen dramatically
since 1950, while the rate for
men in the same age bracket
has persistently declined.
Increases in labor force
activity have been particularly
pronounced for married
women. However, mature
married women are still less
likely to be working than
mature women who are
widowed, divorced or

Soul Benefit Supports Eldridge Cleaver |
Taken From
The Sun Reporter
According to Herb Caen,
columnist for the S.F.
Chronicle, - the Black
community is against Eldridge
Cleaver. That’s what he stated
m his column after asking the
opinion of one man who
happened to be hanging around
the ‘Soul sod Soul Music
Benefit’ for Eldridge Cleaver
Elridge Cleaver
on Saturday evening, August
21.
But what does Herb Caen
really know about the Black
community or about their
feelings towards Eldridge
Cleaver? Every one knows that
just one man’s opinion
shouldn’t be taken as gospel,
and Herb Caen’s opinion, in all
probability, doesn’t hold its
weight in water since it was
only the opinion of one person
(who, by the way was not
identified). Who was that
Streetwise oldtimer (as Caen
described him) who laid that
information on Mr. Caen in the
first place?
Herb Caen, with his
pretentious wisdom, ought to
know better. What was he
there for? Was he there to
show support, or did he just
attend the benefit to
peak-the-scene? With his
cosmopolitan veneer, it is
indeed surprising that he would
step foot into the Queen Adah
Hall that he described as being
“about as glamorous as your
average high school
gymnasium.” He called it “a
depressing scene,” and then he
separated.
Women who drop out of the
labor force when they marry or
start a family may encounter
many obstacles in the job
market when they decide to
return to work, the report
states.
With rusty or outmoded
skills, little or no recent
experience, inadequate
counseling, and lack of job
contacts, these women often
must settle for low-skilled and
low-paying jobs which require
little or no specialized training,
and which afford limited
opportunities for upward
mobility.
In 1975, 12 million mature
women had jobs or were
looking for work. They
represented more than
one-third of all mature women.
Statistical data in the report
indicate that the occupational
distribution of women aged 35
and over is similar to that of
younger women. However,
mature women are somewhat
less likely to be working in
professional and technical or
clerical jobs than are younger
women. They are more likely
to be operatives, managers and
administrators.
Among the mature women
who worked year round, full
time, the average income was
“wandered over to the Mark
Hopkins,” where he probably
should have been in the first
place.
What was his real purpose?
He did devote three quarters
of his column to the Cleaver
benefit. But he superficially
braised the surface, talking
about the surface, talking
about the clothing of Eldridge
Cleaver, Assemblyman Willie
Brown Jr., Warren Hinckle,
former editor of City Magazine
and Quentin Kopp, President
of the Board of Supervisors.
The major question
throughout Caen’s column was,
“Do clothes make the man?”
The fact that Eldridge Cleaver
wore a three-piece suit seemed
to be Caen’s reason for
commenting on the evening’s
activity that was sponsored by
the Eldridge Cleaver Defense
Committee.
Approximately 400 persons
attended the benefit with
numerous representatives from
the political arena. The partial
listing of sponsors included
such names as Julian Bond,
Nathan Hare, Nat Hentoff,
Max Roach, Arnold Aronson,
Ernest Green and Albert
Shanker. The numerous guests
and the impressive list of
sponsors clearly indicates that
the Black community is not
against Eldridge Cleaver.
Cleaver was released from
Alameda County in Oakland
approximately two weeks ago
after serving nearly nine
months time following his
return to the United States on
November 18, 1975. Cleaver
spent seven years as a fugitive
only able to travel to countries
on hostile terms with the
United States. Cleaver said that
he decided to return when he
recognized that radical changes
had taken place both in the
United States and in the Third
World since 1968. Since his
return to the states with his
wife and two (children -
Kathleen has been consistently
working to generate support
and trying to secure funds to
$7,773 in 1974, substantially
below the $14,817 for men 45
and over, and about the same
for women 25 to 44 years
($7,856).

Bureau, Employment
