OF THE SEXES By PHYLLIS BATTELLE Hearst Headline Special to The Baltimore American The American woman today is ac sccuaed of literally squeezing the virility out of the American male. Not with hugs of affection. But with shrewd, businesslike maneuvering. He still has the thicker neck, the harder muscles and the majority of the skilled jobs. But she has more stamina, more stocks, more property and more power, Some of her assets came from God, from her father, her husband or her ingenuity; but whoever the donor, she is making the most of it. * * * It would be difficult to find a doctor, anthropologist, Wall Street or census statistician to deny that the woman in America is currently the “stronger sex,” It has physically not made and her financially. happier a sex. Psychiatrists, like the her famed sharp Dr, Karl Menninger, claim up¬ surge in fame and fortune has given her a complex of neuroses never en¬ tertained by meeker, milder ancestors. He says “most” American women are “sexually the frustrated” in and the “incapable, face of new female power, wholly or partly, to deal with life’s problems.” the sympathy in this But most of near-matriarchal country goes out to the men, who allegedly are working fiercely, dying young and losing their identities as males in a vain attempt to “Fathers keep ambitious women happy. and strain themselves work their guts out, says Pearl Buck, student of international cultures, “to furnish expensive educations for their daughters, happier which without—not the daughters only happier might be but better women — because they womd be contented women.” While the American girl wonders what struck her (what hath emancipa¬ tion and push-buttons wrought?), current historians contemplate the fu¬ ture of the outnumbered and appar¬ ently outmaneuvered American male. Is tbe gradually declining into a role of half-homemaker, half-drone? * * * And what of the children ? Are they being smothered by their insecure over-possessive mothers into possible homosexuality (which is on the in¬ crease) ? Or are they being dismissed into a danger of delinquency (also increas¬ ing) by mothers ? with careers in the “new era” Consider first a collection of hard, plain statistics behavior that help students of human form their opinions. —Back in 1930 men in America out¬ numbered women by about 1,500,000 Today that ratio is almost exactly re¬ versed. The U. S. Census Bureau pre¬ dicts that by 1975 women will hold a lead in sheer numbers of 3,600,000. —American females outlive Ameri¬ can males by more than six years. In 1900, they outlived men by only two years, 10 months. —Almost every disease kills more men than women. (Exceptions: child¬ birth, cancer of the breast.) In the fast-moving five times mid-20th century, almost as many men as women die of ulcers caused, partially at least, from tension. Three times as many men commit suicide successfully. (More women attempt suicide but are either inept or insecure enough to bungle it.) —As well as raising families, Amer¬ ican women comprise one-third of the total labor force in this country. Nearly 13,000,000 married women and 9,000,000 single girls work. —American women are the pluto¬ crats of the world. The biggest earn¬ ers, biggest stockholders, biggest spenders. They own 70 per cent of the nation’s private wealth, two-thirds of all privately-owned government bonds, and stocks worth about $100 billion. They cial control 70 per cent of the finan¬ estates, 48 per cent of railway and utility holdings, 66 per cent of the country’s mutual savings accounts —and, being pioneering gamblers at heart—most of the nation’s best thor¬ oughbred r—JYuaiSfl race horses. 85 of SYSfZ Erwin Pardue Passes Funetai services were held Wednesday for Rufus Erwin Pardue, 05, who died Tuesday at his home of cancer after a few mouth illness.
