A Discussion between Miss Eleanor Rathbone and Professor D.M. MacGregor

No one is better qualified to discuss the subject of family allowances than Miss Eleanor Rathbone, whose recent book, 'The Disinherited Family,' did so much to bring the question before the public. To base wages on a supposed family of man, wife and three children means, on Miss Rathbone's showing, that a family wage is going to many wage-earners with no family obligations, and that those with large families get too little for their needs. Professor MacGregor will discuss the pros and cons of this problem with Miss Rathbone.
