In the future there will be more policewomen. The field of service however will not change. Women protective officers will always confine their efforts to work with children girls and women. From a small isolated group women protective officers will rise to take their rightful places beside the men cooperating with them so that society may have the full benefit of a woman's point of view in solving those difficult problems that threaten the life and safety of mothers and children

In the policewoman of the future rests the hope of a permanent and lasting cure". First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good EX-LIBRARY/No jacket. 8vo. xviii 200pp. Frederick A. Stokes Company Hardcover
