SHORT SKIRTS ONLY
MODERN FASHION TO
SHOCK WOMAN RULER
LONDON, Nov. 5. (ZP)—Of all the
ultra modernism about the English
girls of 1925 only the short skirts
are a shock to the orthodox sensibil
ities of the Begum of Bhopal, the
only woman ruler of the 700 poten
tates of India, who is in London tak
ing in western civilization through
her Mohammedan veil.
The most advanced woman of her
race and among the most progres
sive of the Indian rulers, the Begum, j
despite her 67 years, has come to
London with her son and heir to
learn the ways and manners of the
land of her suzerain.
Her Royal Highness wants her
grand-daughters to learn a woman’s
work but she would not think of
sending them to universities. Such
institutions are a good place for
boys but not for girls.
“I don’t think women need to
know as much as a man,” she de
clared in dismissing the subject of
women’s place in the sun.
The Begum has established her
self in an English mansion in the
heart of Mayfair which contains
nothing more suggestive of her na
tive land than an axminster carpet.
Her household of 32 members are
mostly court officials and personal
maids, and it is an English butler
who opens the pretentious door and
a Cockney maid who pours out af
ternoon tea. The Begum is in pur
dah all the time, as the laws of
her religion demand and it is only
a pair of sparkling eyes that one is
permitted to address.
But the Begum is not travelling in
state. Quite the contrary, for the
representative of The Associated
Press who called upon her was tak
en without ceremony into her pri- ■
vate sitting room and presented to
the Begum as she threw aside a piece
of highly colored embroidery upon
which she had been working.
“I am quite attracted to English
girls but I cannot believe they should
go about in such short skirts and
or -without guardians,” the Begum
told her interviewer. “But I suppose
short skirts are the fashion.”
The two sons of the Beguni have
several daughters and in the rear
ing of these children the Begum takes
personal interest.
“I want mv grand-daughters to
learn a woman’s work,” she assert
ed. “They must learn to run a
household, supervise cooking and
know needlework but I would not -
think of sending them to Universi- -
ties. That’s a good place for boys
but not for girls.”
Her Royal Highness herself re
ceived a part of her education from
tutors sent to her parents by the
British government. From them she
learned English, French and elemen
tary mathematics. But for other sub
jects this powerful ruler has a nat
ural dislike.
The heir to the throne, who ac
companied his mother, has spent most
of his time in driving thru the down
town streets and marvelling at the
shop windows.
