EXTRACTED TEXT FROM PAGE:



parents are at work. There they have dinner, take walks, and do their lessons under the supervision of teachers. In the next decade it is planned to enlarge the net of children's establishments so that every family can, if the parents desire, send their children to kindergartens, nurseries, and so on. To make housework easier and free the woman of everyday chores in the kitchen and so on, much attention is paid to canteens, cafes, and restaurants. Very many rest-houses and sanatoriums are built in our country for our citizens' summer leisure. This is also so with dwelling houses, cinemas, and catering establishments. In our age of progress in science and technology, many fields of activity are open where the woman can demonstrate her abilities and talents. We women can and must do as much as we are able so that people lead happy and prosperous lives. No matter where we work, we can successfully realize our cherished hopes and plans if there is peace on Earth. That is why it is of such a great significance for us not to be confined to our profession alone but to do our best to get to know each other and thus establish mutual understanding of peoples and nations.
