The development of the proletarian revolution in the socialist construction of the Soviet Union confirms the great social role played by the women of the working class. One of the first acts of the young Soviet Power was to declare full equality for nationalities and for women. Not merely in constitutional law, not merely in family law, but in all spheres of social life. The legal rights accorded to women were accompanied by equal duties in the work of rebuilding the national economy, the State and culture; by complete equality in the estimation of women as a force in the revolutionary struggle and as a creative, constructive power in the transition to socialism.

In truth, the victorious proletariat, the dictating proletariat, returned loyalty for loyalty. For in the years of preparation before the revolution, there were no more heroic, no more resolute and selfless " soldiers of the revolution" than women. And later, when the first working class State was engaged in a life and death conflict with the counter-revolutionaries, both within and without Russia, when the achievements of October had to be defended by arms, when the very existence of the young Soviet Republic was at stake, the women bore their full share of the burdens. Without their co-operation, without their help in the struggle, the workers' State would never have come out victorious from the conflict with
