WOMEN'S NEW RESPONSIBILITIES,
The varying aspects of the domestic servant problem as seen in London and Scotland were on May 15th, laid before | the committee of women appointed by the Minister of Labour to inquire into, among other things, the effect of the unemploy ent insurance on the supply of domestic servants.
The prelominant demand in London, said Miss Gardner, chief woman other of the South Eastern Pirision of the Ministry of Labour, is for the singleband સો mid or for maids for households - where two are kept, both of whom have to turn their hands to general work. Special difliculties
