Northern Korea. Please Credit WORLD NEWS SERVICES/ Northern Korea./ Korea was under the sway of the Japanese for over 40 years. Two years ago Soviet Army troops fought their way into Northern Korea and liberated her people. Since then democratic parties have arisen in the country, and People's Committees -- local government bodies have been elected. People freed from slavery display tremendous constructive initiative. The land of morning freshness is being reborn. In the course of the land reform about one million hectares of land have been distributed to peasants free of payment. Women obtained equality. Now the Union of Democratic women of North Korea has a membership of over 700,000. Industrial enterprises which had belonged to Japanese or traitors have been confiscated and nationalized. The eight-hour working day has been introduced in all factories. The system of education has been radically reformed. Now 1,285,000 people are taught to read and write in schools for illiterate adults. A People's university has been set up in Korea's ancient capital Phyongyang. The writers have organized a union. Some thirty newspapers and several magazines are now published in Northern Korea, where no single newspaper was published in the Korean language previously. In conformity with the decision of the Moscow Conference of the Foreign Ministers of the Soviet Union, the United States of America and Great Britain held in December 1945, Northern Korea is confidently advancing along the path of democratic development./ Photo shows: A demonstration in Phyongyang held on the day when the returns of the elections to the People's Committees were published.
