WOMEN
Send GREETINGS
Kate Gitlow Brings the
Message to y. S.

Greetings from the Women Work
ers and Peasants of the City of Mos
COW and Moscow Province to the
working class women of America.
The greetings are sent with Kate
Gitl0w.)
The working women Of Moscow, the
Red proletarian capital of the Union
of Socialist Soviet Republics, send
their greetings to their dear com
rades, the working women of capital
list America.
Awaiting ourselves of the opportun-
ity we wish to convey to you thru
the comrade departing for America
that we to-day, free builders of the
first Soviet country, always remem-
Der you are caught in the shackles of
the capitalist order.
Land of Cold
They say of America that it is a
land of gold, Yet we know that this
gold represents the blood and sweat
of millions Of toilers, and we know
that this gold is concentrated in the
hands of a small clique of parasite
exploiters wallowing in luxury and
enjoying all the pleasures Of life
while the overwhelming masses of
worker producers have been dispos-
sessed of the fruits of their toll and
committed to a miserable existence
We know that in your country there
are millions of unemployed, and
that the burden of oppression rests
heaviest of all on the proletarian
women.
We call upon you to rally round
your Communist Party in order that
you very effectively raise the banner
of struggle against the capitalist
class. For our part we pledge to the
proletariat of America all our help
and support.
We deem it appropriate to relate to
you the great success we have
achieved within the space of ten years
of our Revolution. We, the women
workers, actively assist in the build
ing of our Socialist state, in the
development Of our industry since
we are the owners of our country.
We are socializing agricultural life,
consolidating small and weak patches
Of land into great electrified COM
munities using powerful equipment.
In Union Work
We take a prominent part in the
councils of workers and peasants and
thousands from our ranks have as
sumed leadership and are occupying
most responsible governmental posi-
tions. You will find us in the midst
of trade union work, of cooperatives
and other social organizations, func-
tioning as equal members of one
working class family. We devote a
great deal of our energy to The or
ganization and maintenance of kin
dergardens, working homes and
various institutions devoted to the
care of babies and children. The
number of such institutions grows
yearly providing additional accom-
modations for thousands of babies
and children. No country in the
world, including America, can COM
pare with US in the matter of caring
for our mothers and their children.
Yet what we have accomplished
is only the beginning. Our achieve
ments are bound to multiply in as
much as our national wealth becomes
greater and the wounds inflicted upon
us by the world war and civil war
heal completely. At present we still
have tremendous difficulties. How
ever, we realize that while we are
surrounded by countries where the
capitalists and landowners have in
trenched themselves, there is one
country where a proletariat is at the
helm.
Face Tasks
Great is our land with its hundred
and fifty million people. There are
regions within our territory where
there are no railroads, where cameIs,
dogs or even reindeer are our means
Of communication and where there
