The government of this oil- rich North African state, ack- nowledging an acute manpower shortage, is trying to encourage women to take a greater part in the life and work of the coun- try.

One Tripoli movie theatre puts on a show each week strictly for women. When Libyan officials and businessmen take vacations abroad they usually go with men friends, leaving the wives and children at home. In 1963, the women were given the right to vote in parliamen- tary elections, but only a tiny fraction have exercised the right in the two elections since then. In country districts of Libya, the barracan is still prominent, but often in bright colors. and with the face uncovered. Before Libya, a former Italian colony, achieved independence in 1951, local women had little opportunity for primary or sec- ondary education, and none at all for higher education.

The food manufacturer is in the clear if he lists his ingredients and has lopped off a few of the valories. It is well to assume that unless the precise calorie value is given on the label, the food is not appreciably less fat- tening than similar products on the market, even though it is designated "low calorie." You can find the exact calorie count on any product by writing to the manufacturer. The ad- dress will be given on the label.
