New Freedom In Sight For Women 0f Japan

BY RELMAN MORIN Associated Press News Analyst A Japanese newspaper man, one

of the first to visit the Utiitcd States since. the war, has been giving mo his view of the most umportanr political inﬂuence in the Far East in the immediate future.

Wits among the world's most. un- doc-privileged beings under the old system. she had no lego. iighis vhntevcr. She could be divorced simply by a three-soni- husband There were no provisions for sli- mony to protect her.

Having been divorced. her name would be erased from her lins- nunriﬂs family book. Hcr own fam- :lv mtghtpor might not~take her trick. t

Shc had no legal rights to her own children and. when divorced. thc hu=innrl usually retained cus- tmlv of thcm. ally, she was a complete re had no vote and it W85 cons.‘ cred immodest for her even to express an opinion on politics.

The war and the oxupatioo policies, nrcordin: to my friend. have ripped all this to pieces. ‘Fhe whole social, legal and political system is changing, he says.

Japanese girls are demanding thr- rlght to marry men of their f~\\'ii choosing. discarding the old c-tttcrn of thc. "arranged" mar- rttzc. ‘Phcy hnvc the. vole now. .\ lCmililsl movement has started. aircclcd toward obtaining some- thing closer to equality with men
