JOURNALITIES: (About the contributors):
SIDNEY MARGOLIUS, who supplies the budget analyses for "How America Spends Its Money" articles (see page 136), has written about family money management since graduating from Rutgers 28 years ago. After counseling Journal families, he reports, "Today's young people are harder working, in many ways, than their parents. But 1 wish they knew as much about insurance, taxes and installment buying as about casserole cookery and laying cement block."

Back in 1938, the women of America thought that $30 a week was enough for a couple to get married on, and $44 could support a family of four. We published these findings in a series called "What Do the Women of America Think?" The survey was conducted by a young man named DR. GEORGE HORACE GALLUP, who had recently established the American Institute of Public Opinion in Princeton. For the answers gleaned by Dr. Gallup from today's generation of young mothers, read "The Woman's Mind" (page 72), third in our current survey series.

Before NORRIS LLOYD was a writer she was "a member of that maligned and misunderstood genus, the suburban housewife." (Species: Winnetka, Illinois.) A writing housewife needs patience, she admits-"but after the youngest child no longer comes home for lunch, who else in our society has that great unblemished swatch of time from 8:30 to 3:30?" "A Dream of Mansions"(page 58) is her first novel.
