The discussion never ends ; it opens with the housewife's cry of despair and ends with a vision of a distant world in which the problem will be ' liquidated '. Among the speakers will be Edna Henshaw , lecturer in psychology ; Isabel Tully , manager of the women's department of the Newcastle Labour Exchange ; Margaret Ryan , a writer on good cooking; M. Agness Smith, who has worked in the mill as well as in the kitchen ; Cicely Marsh , one of the organisers of the No More War Exhibition; Janet Brown , a parlourmaid who has found domestic life satisfactory; a husband who wanted to marry someone capable in the house and found her ; and Alderman Wright Robinson , lately chairman of the Manchester Education Committee, who speaks as a parent and an observer.
