extended to other Mohammedan
countries.
For instance, here in Turkestan,
where 90 per cent of the 100000 in
habitantS are Moslems, all the time
honored customs OF the followers of
Mohammed are still observed. Mul-
tiple wives are still the rule. al
though hard times are forcing many
native men to reduce the number OF
spouses allowed them by the Koran
from four to two. and in some cases
of poverty are reduced even to one.
But the veil, fez and mantle still
persist. No devout Uzbekistan or
Tadjik would "profane" himself by re
moving this emblem of his faith, nor
would any Moslem woman degrade
herself in the eyes of her race by eX-
posing her features. BY the natives
Mustapha Kemal is looked upon as
worse than an infidel for repudiating
the command of the Prophet. All the
thousands of mosques in Turkestan

Women have begun to learn that
in or out of marriage there is no

strength-the freedom which comes
from an ability to pay her way in.
life without fondllng her husbands

Difference to Endure
Some women feel their social in

a. physical difference between the
male and the female, and always
the two will be drawn and repelled
