Another conferee noted that "shortage" also suggested the
absence of incentives other than economic, as, for example, the
availability of only routine and uninteresting jobs. There
was general agreement that the Council report should include
an examination of incentives drawing women into the labor
market, of what keeps the quit rates for women high, etc.
N 1958
18. Differences between the education of girls and boys: The
need for a detailed analysis of this problem and the difficulties
involved, in view of the absence of information, were stressed
by several of the conferees. The motivation of college women
to think about the role which work might play in their lives
was also underscored as an important problem.
19. The role of women in the Armed Forces: A question was
raised as to why this topic appeared to be so de-emphasized in
the proposed report. A staff member pointed out that the topic
would certainly be covered by the report; however, it was seen
as a much more specialized problem which should be dealt with
after the more general problems had been covered. Related to
this topic was the observation that the role of women as a
civil defense reserve should also be covered by the report.
is has been estimated that at least 60 percent of the civilian
defense reserve are women who must be trained for their jobs.
