Like their foremothers, to- day's feminists want to im- prove women’s lot. But as the * leading Manitoba feminists show in their comments, their perceptions of the is- sues and their plans of attack vary. Sally Shrofe}, chairman of the 400-member, federally-° funded Manitoba Action Committee on the Status of Women, believes . employ- ment is crucial because of the “psychology of trying tourge . women back into the home.” “Women aren't working for fun,” she says, adding that this is not the first issue on which women have had to battle a prevailing point of view.” Shrofel says the action committee is also fighting for entrenchment of a bill of rights, an employment strat- egy for women, new pension _ and ‘retirement programs, quality child-care, and a uni- form system of family law. retbeieslcile takes toll WASHINGTON (CP) — The seemingly endless hous- ing slump in the United States is taking a growing toll — from sawmills to ce- ment plants, from appliance stores to real estate firms, It has rippled across the economy, hurting many in- dustries that depend heavily on home, building, and has damaged Canada's lumber exports. The shock of last spring, when U.S. construc- tion plunged while interest rates hit record highs, lingers a year later and is deepened by the latest economic news, After several months of stability, housing starts plummeted again in Febru- ary, this time by 25 per cent, And with building permits also down, the future looks even dimmer, says, Michael Sumichrast, chief economist of the U.S. Association of Home Builders, . Clayton Egner was hoping that by now there would be some relief. Last spring, he watched his wholesale lum- beryard in Kansas City, Mo., come to a near standstill as volume dropped by 50 per cent. * VOLUME DOWN Volume is still 25 per cent below normal and, Egner says, “things haven't really changed, houses aren't being but” A realtor’s average income in .good times exceeds $20,000 a year. It fell to about $18,000 in 1980 and “it's slipped a little bit, more,” says Glenn Crellin, an econ- omist at the U.S. Realtors _Association: ” “Now, instead of seeing their incomes erode even more, people are simply dropping out of the indus- try,” he says. Last year, the sale of existing homes fell to a five-yearold low and 28 tillion, almost one million fewer than in 1978, The lumber and wood products industry tradi- tionally depends on new con- struction for nearly 60 per cent of its business, the home builders group says. SAWMILLS CLOSE “We've got a lot of our sawmills either drastically curtailed or down cold,”. says Richard Rohrbach, Baise Cas- cade’s director of national affairs, Last year, the company's sales of' wood ,products slipped to $686 million from $697 million in 1979. “But we are coming inte the second year of this monster,” says 12th Annual Dennis Hurtt, the company's manager of timber and wood products. New construction stimu- lates nearly 10 per cent of all output in the household ap- pliance industry and about eight per cent of all activity in the household furniture business, Sumichrast says. “Basically, we're the same as jast year — way down,” . seve Jerry. Schmitz, manager 3 housing and faite sales. The Portland Cement As- socation says cement sales Inst year were down about 20 ‘per cent. Ths industry de- pends on housing’ for as much as 30 per cent of its usiness. In Canada, housing ‘starts declined in 1980 to about 155,000 from 197,000 in 1979. They. are expected to climb to about 185,000 this year, some forecasts show.
