Although Ms has been in use since the 1700s as an abbreviation for Mistress, its modern use is meant to avoid the practice of denoting a woman's martial status by assigning her the title of Miss or Mrs. Some say that Ms should have a period as Mr. does (in American usage anyway). This violates the modern spirit of the title by once again tying it to the masculine.
Ms would not take a period in British usage and shouldn't in American usage either.
