Apropos of this “Women of India" in the March Caravan of India maga- zine makes for good reading. The article is as follows “The greatest revolution in a country is one that affects the status and living conditions of its women." says Prime Minister Ja- waharlal Nehru in the course of a toreward to the book entitled “Woman of Indian.‘ which has been published by the Publica- tions Division of the Ministry Information and Broadcasting. The book has bccn brought out under the auspices of the Nation- al Council of Women in India. Mr. Nehru observes This book had to be written. It may be a forerunner of other and fuller treatments of this subject. But even as it is, it gives us a. broad survey 'which, I think, i.s of great. importance. . . . For my part. I am partial to women of India and the more I have wandered about. this great country the more I have felt a certain pride in our womenfolk. Women in India have played an important part in our social life and in our history. They have played this part in every bram-h of national activity. from high learning to valour on the battle- field. But it is their unobtrusive work in the household. in the vil- lage or in larger community that has moulded nations.- They are essentially feminine and that is as it should be. But then I have always felt that In- dia, for all her manly qualities, is especially noted for feminine virtues — gentleness, tenderness, certain patient resignation and quiet and sometimes amazing [courage of a somewhat passive Ekmd. I say this, realizing that I am generalising when I should not do so because there are all.- kmds of men as well as all kinds .of women in this country. But I suppose it is true that the idea ofwctmen in India is chiefly con- nected with these feminine vir- tues as well as. perhaps. with some feminine failings. Thousands of years have mould- ed and conditioned our race. To- «fiay we pass rapidly through v,-5,!-- inus phases of transition. That is inevitable and not to be regret- ted. But I doubt If all these com- ing changes. hig as they are, will Stories ahnul uproot us from our old founda- tions. . . . - Yet the twentieth century is upon us with all its destruction of old, and hopes and fears of the future.

Onge the old shackles were removed,‘ it was no longer possi- ble to replace them in the same way. Asttempls were no doubt made to go back but they were bound to fail. Now the full impact of modern life is being felt by our women- Ifolk in cities chiefly, and in our schools and colleges. I do not know what the final outcome will be, except that it will be differ- ent; from the past. though per- haps not so different as to at- fect the essential characteristics of»India’s women. This book shows how women are playing their part in the multitude‘ of activities and doing well.
