WOMAN’S TRUE PLACE
HOME HAS FIRST CLAIM SIGNOR MUSSOLINI’S VIEWS. PARIS, June 12. Signor Mussolini’s views of women’s place in society are revealed in an interview with a French woman journalist which is published in Petit Journal. He declares that a woman’s true place Is the home, but owing to present economic conditions many are forced to work outside. “ I do not like to see women in factories and workshops. If they cannot remain at home they should work in the fields, which is most suitable. I have closely studied these problems and find that factory, work for women brings irregularity in home life and a marked reduction in the birth rate. Women are now exempt from the celibacy tax in Italy because I believe that they are'not spinsters from choice.”
