Answer:

Women's employment was only encouraged during the war as men were out fighting, when it ended federal and civilian polices replaced all women with men.

Step-by-step explanation:

With men away to serve in the military and demands for war material increasing, manufacturing jobs opened up to women and upped their earning power. Yet women's employment was only encouraged as long as the war was on. Once the war was over, federal and civilian policies replaced women workers with men.
