Mexico City, Dec. 22 Mexican
women are preparing: to take a hand
in the affairs of the ;Mexlcan republic.
They intend iirst to eliminate social
ami industrial evils and later to make
a fl.eht for political equality. Thla is
the program of the Mexican Femin
ist Council, a national organization
with headquarters in Mexico City.
Tho Council does not believe "that
the mass of Mexican women are at
present prepared for complete suff
rage but the Council hopes eventual
ly to make them a vital political
force. Tho present Mexican gov
ernment looks with favor upon their
efforts, according to Senorita Klr,
Torres, general secretary of the
Council. Heads of the government,
she said, advocate "complete eman
cipation of Mexican women."
The Feminist Council has organized
proups to teach Mexican women how
their conditions may be improved in
dustrially and socially. The next
step, said Senorita Torres, will be or
ganization of women workers in In
dustry to demand fair and equal
treatment at the hands of their em
ployers. They will not countenance
any bitter scjc war which has char
acterized the feminist movement in
seme European countries, but expect
co-operation from the men. The
Council intends to bring the Mexican
women's movement in contact with
.similar organizations in other coun
tries and to work with the women of
the world for peace, disarmament
and anti-imperialism.
