Surplus Women of Europe Face Emigration to America
The article discusses the imbalance of men and women in Europe after prolonged war, noting 1000 to 1033 in France and 1000 to 1022 in Germany. It explores potential postwar futures for women, including remaining to rebuild home economies or emigrating to the United States or Canada, with figures on wage earners and calls for room for all across North America. It cites observers like the Finnish novelist Mme Aino Malnierg and contemplates whether emigration will surge or fade as Europe rebuilds.
