THEY WALK AS THEIR ANCESTORS DlD.—The day's work for these women begins early in the morning when they walk from their village, where wells are dry, to a neighbouring community six miles away. They fill earthen jars and return home in the afternoon. The women are shown crossing a railway track going from Jodhpur to Phalodi in the Rajasthan State of west India, about 600 miles southwest of New Delhi. Lack of monsoon rains this year caused wells to dry and crops to fail.
