Women and Barriers to Employment (1934, No. 1)

GWI strongly deprecates the tendency increasingly evident in the majority of countries by new regulations to bar women from careers for which they are well qualified, whether on grounds of sex or marriage. It considers that such regulations are inimical to the family which is itself the foundation of society; and desires to affirm its profound conviction that it is only by permitting and encouraging women to play a full and responsible part in the intellectual life of their country that the civilisation and prosperity of future generations may be developed on a sound basis of general understanding and enlightenment.
