also established a professional school in which were trained hun dreds of seamstresses. The co operative Ukrainian Folk Art grew within a comparatively short time to be a large handi craft workshop which became known through its products in Germany, England and America (embroidery, cloth, linen, carpets, wood engraving, ceramics). This establishment was publishing its own magazine, New Home, which became very popular in West Uk raine. This cooperative participat ed in international cooperative movement and its representatives took part in the congress of Co operative Guild in 1931 in Vienna which was very much interested in the cooperatives directed sole ly by women. Beside these coop eratives there was a number of local trade and industrial coopera tive's all over the province where the wo mien were members. No less active proved the Uk rainian woman likewise in private enterprises. There wras a prosper ing candy factory Fo.rtuna creat ed by Mrs. K. Avdikovich, a fac tory under the name Elegant which was making floor wax and polish and which was organized by Mrs. O. Levit'ska, also a plant named Health that was making soft and mineral drinks, a manu factory Arosa making puddings, and a plant producing vinegar, all owned and operated by Ukrainian women. All these women produc ers were able to withstand com petition of alien enterprises. There were also very many Uk rainian women who conducted their own local private businesses, chiefly dressmaking and barber shops. But World War II ruined all economic attainments o.f Ukrain ian worfien. They were also forc ed to abandon their homeland and to escape to Western Europe and subsequently to emigrate to Am erica. Some did remain, however, in their native country, but they have lost all their property and freedom of action. At the present time all Ukrain ians, just as all inhabitants of So viet Union, are dispossessed of all private enterprises, of all initia tive and freedom, The Ukrainian women in Uk raine are enslaved by the Soviet regime, as the workers on collec tive farms, as slave laborers in concentration camps, as well as toilers in the cities, performing the hardest work of the men. We shall dwell, however, on this topic in a later edition of our magazine. S. P. NATALIE POLONSKA VASILENKO The Ukrainians are noting this year the 70th birthday of the re- nowned Ukrainian historian and author, Natalie Polonska Vassi- lenko.
