Artist: A. Kanevsky "So it was in the time of the Tsar." 1936 Text: "Only the life in the kolkhoz (collective farm) made work an honorable thing.

The kolkhoz introduced the working day. And what is the working day? For the working day everybody is equal: men and women." ~ Stalin Courtesy Hoover Institution
