An informal Discussion between Miss Ellen Wilkinson, M.P. and Mr. William H. Thoday
The whole labour market has been convulsed by the late war and its economic consequences. Women have entered it - undoubtedly to stay - on a large scale. The wages problem in relation to the competitive employment of men and women cannot be ignored by anyone interested in the political sociology of our time.
The feminist banner in tonight's debate is to be upheld by Miss Ellen Wilkinson, the well-known Labour M.P., who was Organizer of the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies from 1913 to 1915; whilst her antagonist, Mr. Thoday, is an ex-President of the London School Masters' Association and a former Treasurer of the National Association of School Masters.
