Study cites 28 million U S women abused by husbands
Washington AP reports a study by Richard C. Levy and Roger C. Langley estimates 28 million American women suffer domestic violence at the hands of husbands. The authors claim widespread ignorance and a congeries of neglect from institutions, urging federal guidelines and ongoing research. They based findings on surveys in 25 cities and seven scientific studies. Levy notes a lenient public attitude toward wife beating and cites TV humor as evidence. A separate item describes a state coordinator role with a $500000 program for battered women seeking emergency shelter and services with a $16000-$22000 salary range.
