Fraternal greetings to the women workers and all women toilers of town and country!
I wish them success in the struggle for the abolition of exploitation, oppression, inequality, darkness and ignorance!
In a united front with all the working people and under the leadership of the working class, forward to the abolition of capitalism, the consolidation of the dictatorship of the proletariat, and the building of a new, socialist society!
J. Stalin
