Text: "Only the life in the kolkhoz (collective farm) made work an honorable thing. Only the kolkhoz could give birth to real women revolutionaries. Only the co-operative life could destroy inequalities and put women back on their feet. You know this very well yourselves. The kolkhoz introduced the working day. And what is the working day? For the working day everybody is equal: men and women."
