The women fought like the
old pioneers of the American
prairies.
The government commander
said they helped carry munitions
and reloaded rifles for their en-
battled husbands and brothers who
fought from the windows Of their
homes. Their resistance was
smashed by artillery.
The state Of civil war between
socialists and the government
continued serious throughout the

rapidly gaining the upper hand.
