Shortage


Everyone thought that there sons, fathers, friends, and soldiers returning home would be a great thing. But what realy happened was due to the fact that so many people came back from the war there was just not enough houses. On top of the home shotage there was a shotage in jobs. When alot of men left for war there was a need for workers. These jobs were filled by women and Africa Americans. When the soldiers came back a new bill passed The G.I. bill which gave alot of soldiers jobs. The role of women went back to normal but the women didn't like this so began the womens right movement.
